X-Git-Tag: v2.6.16.27~3 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1d3688b61337c13317492af7a50424303294584d;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git [PATCH] IPV6: Fix source address selection. Two additional labels (RFC 3484, sec. 10.3) for IPv6 addreses are defined to make a distinction between global unicast addresses and Unique Local Addresses (fc00::/7, RFC 4193) and Teredo (2001::/32, RFC 4380). It is necessary to avoid attempts of connection that would either fail (eg. fec0:: to 2001:feed::) or be sub-optimal (2001:0:: to 2001:feed::).
