Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2022-17ed6ff923
2022-10-15 21:18:33.579270
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : passt
Product : Fedora 36
Version : 0^20220929.g06aa26f
Release : 1.fc36
URL :
https://passt.top/
Summary : User-mode networking daemons for virtual machines and namespaces
Description :
passt implements a translation layer between a Layer-2 network interface and
native Layer-4 sockets (TCP, UDP, ICMP/ICMPv6 echo) on a host. It doesn't
require any capabilities or privileges, and it can be used as a simple
replacement for Slirp.
pasta (same binary as passt, different command) offers equivalent functionality,
for network namespaces: traffic is forwarded using a tap interface inside the
namespace, without the need to create further interfaces on the host, hence not
requiring any capabilities or privileges.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Most relevant change from upstream is a workaround for the checksum calculation
in router advertisements. Without that, at least on x86_64, the user couldn't
get an address via SLAAC. Neighbour advertisements would still work, same for
DHCPv6.
