From 42c1edd345c8412d96e7a362ee06feb7be73bb6c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julian Anastasov Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2011 17:29:22 +0200 Subject: netfilter: nf_nat: avoid double seq_adjust for loopback Avoid double seq adjustment for loopback traffic because it causes silent repetition of TCP data. One example is passive FTP with DNAT rule and difference in the length of IP addresses. This patch adds check if packet is sent and received via loopback device. As the same conntrack is used both for outgoing and incoming direction, we restrict seq adjustment to happen only in POSTROUTING.
