The goal keeper is a player and can receive a pass like any other player. There are limits on when the goal keeper may use their hands when passed with the feet or thrown in to them from a team-mate.

What is the rule about passing back to the goalkeeper?

There is no law about passing a ball backwards to the goal keeper. Direction is completely unimportant. If a player makes a pass with the foot to their own goal keeper, in any direction, then the goal keeper may not touch the ball with their hands. The consequence is an indirect free kick restart for the opponents where the goal keeper picked it up. A deflection would not be considered such a pass. It would have to be a deliberate play by the defender.
