Package: iputils-ping
Version: 3:20200821-2
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
After iputils-ping upgrade to the recent version (3:20200821-2) I can see this
error message when trying to ping any IPv4 address.
# ping -c 1 127.0.0.1
ping: socket: Address family not supported by protocol
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.041 ms
--- 127.0.0.1 ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.041/0.041/0.041/0.000 ms
It seems that it is because ping tries to open an IPv6 socket:
# strace ping -c 1 127.0.0.1 2>&1 | grep 'AF_INET6'
socket(AF_INET6, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_ICMPV6) = -1 EAFNOSUPPORT (Address family
not supported by protocol)
I have IPv6 disabled in my system (by ipv6.disable=1 kernel option), so I would
expect ignoring the IPv6 stuff at all (even without using "-4" ping parameter
explicitly).
I did not see this behaviour in the previous ping version.
Regards
Zbynek
