From 492ae9ec4eb7fdfe090fba2e59175072bfabf2f5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Zbigniew=20J=C4=99drzejewski-Szmek?= Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2025 18:39:09 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ssh-generator: filter out bogus vsock addresses When VirtIO VSOCK device is not present, IOCTL_VM_SOCKETS_GET_LOCAL_CID returns VMADDR_CID_LOCAL/1, and we issue a hint to connect to vsock%1. This does not work. Filter out VMADDR_CID_LOCAL and VMADDR_CID_HOST, those are not real addresses that can be used from the outside. --- src/basic/socket-util.c | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/basic/socket-util.c b/src/basic/socket-util.c index 1ec59ac63af..568072a492f 100644 --- a/src/basic/socket-util.c +++ b/src/basic/socket-util.c @@ -1932,6 +1932,13 @@ int vsock_get_local_cid(unsigned *ret) { return log_debug_errno(errno, "Failed to query local AF_VSOCK CID: %m"); log_debug("Local AF_VSOCK CID: %u", tmp); + /* If ret == NULL, we're just want to check if AF_VSOCK is available, so accept + * any address.
