Subject: [PATCHv2] properly handle point-to-point interfaces in getifaddrs()
Date: Thu, 19 Nov 2015 21:43:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1447965790-8151-1-git-send-email-jow@openwrt.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1447756429-2304-2-git-send-email-jow@openwrt.org>

With point-to-point interfaces, the IFA_ADDRESS netlink attribute contains
the peer address while an extra attribute IFA_LOCAL carries the actual local
interface address.

Both the glibc and uclibc implementations of getifaddrs() handle this case
by moving the ifa_addr contents to the broadcast/remote address union and
overwriting ifa_addr upon receipt of an IFA_LOCAL attribute.

This patch adds the same special treatment logic of IFA_LOCAL to musl's
implementation of getifaddrs() in order to align its behaviour with that
of uclibc and musl.

Changelog v2:
 * Handle IFA_LOCAL, IFA_ADDRESS in arbritary order
 * Remove misleading comment for IFA_BROADCAST, no such attribute on ptp links
