In IPv4 setting the "disable_policy" flag on a device means no policy
should be enforced for traffic originating from the device. This was
implemented by seting the DST_NOPOLICY flag in the dst based on the
originating device.
However, dsts are cached in nexthops regardless of the originating
devices, in which case, the DST_NOPOLICY flag value may be incorrect.
Consider the following setup:
+------------------------------+
| ROUTER |
+-------------+ | +-----------------+ |
| ipsec src |----|-|ipsec0 | |
+-------------+ | |disable_policy=0 | +----+ |
| +-----------------+ |eth1|-|-----
+-------------+ | +-----------------+ +----+ |
| noipsec src |----|-|eth0 | |
+-------------+ | |disable_policy=1 | |
| +-----------------+ |
+------------------------------+
Where ROUTER has a default route towards eth1.
dst entries for traffic arriving from eth0 would have DST_NOPOLICY
and would be cached and therefore can be reused by traffic originating
from ipsec0, skipping policy check.
Fix by setting a IPSKB_NOPOLICY flag in IPCB and observing it instead
of the DST in IN/FWD IPv4 policy checks.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
