From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Yang Hongyang Subject: [RFC][PATCH 3/3]ipv6:fix the outgoing interface selection order in udpv6_sendmsg() Date: Tue, 09 Dec 2008 15:12:59 +0800 Message-ID: <493E1A7B.9070208@cn.fujitsu.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: netdev@vger.kernel.org, "David S. Miller" Return-path: Received: from cn.fujitsu.com ([222.73.24.84]:58381 "EHLO song.cn.fujitsu.com" rhost-flags-OK-FAIL-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1751949AbYLIHL2 (ORCPT ); Tue, 9 Dec 2008 02:11:28 -0500 Sender: netdev-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: 1.When no interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data item, the interface specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky optionis is used. RFC3542: 6.7. Summary of Outgoing Interface Selection This document and [RFC-3493] specify various methods that affect the selection of the packet's outgoing interface. This subsection summarizes the ordering among those in order to ensure deterministic behavior. For a given outgoing packet on a given socket, the outgoing interface is determined in the following order: 1. if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data item, the interface is used. 2. otherwise, if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky option, the interface is used.
