Hi all,

I see a build / link failure:

net/built-in.o: In function `br_ip6_multicast_alloc_query':
/usr/src/linux-2.6.38-rc8/net/bridge/br_multicast.c:448: undefined
reference to `ipv6_dev_get_saddr'

This happens with bridging build-in and ipv6 modular.

The call to ipv6_dev_get_saddr was introduced there between 2.6.38-rc6
and 2.6.38-rc8, the -rc6 built just fine with the same .config

I work around it by making bridge build modular, but you might want to
fix it properly before releasing 2.6.38.

best regards
  Patrick
