From: Ido Schimmel <[email protected]>
I relied on the fact that anycast routes use the loopback device as
their nexthop device to trap packets hitting them to the CPU.
After commit 4832c30d5458 ("net: ipv6: put host and anycast routes on
device with address") this is no longer the case and such routes are
programmed with a forward action (note the 'offload' flag):
anycast cafe:: dev enp3s0np7 proto kernel metric 0 offload pref medium
This will prevent the router from locally receiving packets destined to
the Subnet-Router anycast address.
Fix this by specifically programming anycast routes with action trap,
which results in the following output:
anycast cafe:: dev enp3s0np7 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium
Fixes: 4832c30d5458 ("net: ipv6: put host and anycast routes on device with
address")
