Add a sysctl raw_l3mdev_accept to control raw socket lookup in a manner similar to use of tcp_l3mdev_accept for stream and of udp_l3mdev_accept for datagram sockets. Have this default to enabled for reasons of backwards compatibility. This is so as to specify the output device with cmsg and IP_PKTINFO, but using a socket not bound to the corresponding VRF. This allows e.g. older ping implementations to be run with specifying the device but without executing it in the VRF. If the option is disabled, packets received in a VRF context are only handled by a raw socket bound to the VRF, and correspondingly packets in the default VRF are only handled by a socket not bound to any VRF.

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.
