This is because the first packet is\nused to resolve ARP entries. Even though the ARP entry may be resolved\n(I tried by setting a static ARP entry for a host i was pinging from),\nit gets overwritten by virtue of having the netdevice disabling ARP.\n\nSubsequent packets go out fine with correct dstMAC address (which may\nbe why people have ignored reporting this issue).\n\nTo cut the story short: \n\nthe culprit code is in net/ethernet/eth.c::eth_header()\n\n----\n /*\n * Anyway, the loopback-device should never use this\nfunction...\n */\n\n if (dev-\u003eflags \u0026 (IFF_LOOPBACK|IFF_NOARP))\n {\n memset(eth-\u003eh_dest, 0, dev-\u003eaddr_len);\n return ETH_HLEN;\n }\n\n\tif(daddr)\n {\n memcpy(eth-\u003eh_dest,daddr,dev-\u003eaddr_len);\n return ETH_HLEN;\n }\n\n----\n\nNote how the h_dest is being reset when device has IFF_NOARP.\n\nAs a note:\nAll devices including loopback pass a daddr. loopback in fact passes\na 0 all the time ;-\u003e \nThis means i can delete the check totaly or i can remove the IFF_NOARP\n\nAlexey says:\n--------------------\nI think, it was me who did this crap. It was so long ago I do not remember\nwhy it was made.\n\nI remember some troubles with dummy device. It tried to resolve\naddresses, apparently, without success and generated errors instead of\nblackholing. I think the problem was eventually solved at neighbour\nlevel.\n\nAfter some thinking I suspect the deletion of this chunk could change\nbehaviour of some parts which do not use neighbour cache f.e. packet\nsocket.\n\nI think safer approach would be to move this chunk after if (daddr).\nAnd the possibility to remove this completely could be analyzed later.\n--------------------\n\nPatch updated with Alexey\u0027s safer suggestions.\n\nSigned-off-by: Jamal Hadi Salim \u003chadi@cyberus.ca\u003e\nAcked-by: Alexey Kuznetsov \u003ckuznet@ms2.inr.ac.ru\u003e\nSigned-off-by: David S.
