Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: Check dest prefix length on original route not copied one in rt6_alloc_cow().
Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2011 17:35:51 -0500 (EST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111213.173551.163815101446083653.davem@davemloft.net> (raw)


After commit 8e2ec639173f325977818c45011ee176ef2b11f6 ("ipv6: don't
use inetpeer to store metrics for routes.") the test in rt6_alloc_cow()
for setting the ANYCAST flag is now wrong.

'rt' will always now have a plen of 128, because it is set explicitly
to 128 by ip6_rt_copy.

So to restore the semantics of the test, check the destination prefix
length of 'ort'.

Committed to 'net'.
