postmarketos-base: add sysctl config to disable rp_filter on ipv4 (MR 2943)
MMS support (via mmsd-tng) involves sending/receiving network requests/responses over the wwan interface. If it's ipv4-only and the device is connected to some other ipv4 network on another iface (like wifi), this can cause the rp_filter to reject responses on wwan iface because it incorrectly thinks they are martian packets. This does theoretically disable some "security" feature in the kernel, but it's worth noting that: 1) rp_filter isn't implemented at all in the kernel for ipv6 2) other distros (mobian, pureos at least) are also disabling rp_filter 3) this seems to be a relatively common problem with folks using mms on pmOS, since many carriers' data networks are ipv4-only also see: https://gitlab.com/kop316/mmsd/-/merge_requests/55/diffs?commit_id=b22c253fb939ff1eb949ea4e628706e6a28c851a [ci:skip-build] already built successfully in CI
