And then the connection will fail since 127.0.0.1 is not an IB device.
So why is this behaviour useful?
My concern is that the user has bound to 127.0.0.1, and the code changes that to
a different address. What if we tried something like the following change to
addr_resolve_local:
if (ZERONET(src_ip)) {
src_in->sin_family = dst_in->sin_family;
src_in->sin_addr.s_addr = dst_ip;
ret = copy_addr(addr, dev, dev->dev_addr);
} else if (LOOPBACK(src_ip)) {
ret = rdma_translate_ip((struct sockaddr *)dst_in, addr);
if (!ret)
memcpy(addr->dst_dev_addr, dev->dev_addr, MAX_ADDR_LEN);
} else {
ret = rdma_translate_ip((struct sockaddr *)src_in, addr);
if (!ret)
memcpy(addr->dst_dev_addr, dev->dev_addr, MAX_ADDR_LEN);
}
