Subject: [PATCH net v3] hv_netvsc: Set VF priv_flags to IFF_NO_ADDRCONF before open to prevent IPv6 addrconf
Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2025 18:07:08 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250712100716.3991-1-litian@redhat.com> (raw)
Set an additional flag IFF_NO_ADDRCONF to prevent ipv6 addrconf.
Commit 8a321cf7becc
("net: add IFF_NO_ADDRCONF and use it in bonding to prevent ipv6 addrconf")
This new flag change was not made to hv_netvsc resulting in the VF being
assinged an IPv6.
Fixes: 8a321cf7becc ("net: add IFF_NO_ADDRCONF and use it in bonding to prevent ipv6 addrconf")
