#2 fping hangs during unrelated flood ping
If running fping while ping -f is being ran against or from the host, fping will hang and never exit. This is because when the handle_random_icmp is called, the function unconditionally says to check for more icmp rather than to check to see if all requirements have otherwise been satisfied.
Attaching a patch that works for me.
Patch that allows program to exit.
