4.2.8-ckt1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Jiri Benc <jb...@redhat.com> commit 9dc2ad1008c9f91f55ec6c89ec0f8639dfc91596 upstream. vxlan_setup is called when allocating the net_device, i.e. way before vxlan_newlink (or vxlan_dev_configure) is called. This means vxlan->default_dst is actually unset in vxlan_setup and the condition that sets needed_headroom always takes the else branch. Set the needed_headrom at the point when we have the information about the address family available. Fixes: e4c7ed415387c ("vxlan: add ipv6 support") Fixes: 2853af6a2ea1a ("vxlan: use dev->needed_headroom instead of dev->hard_header_len") CC: Cong Wang <cw...@twopensource.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jb...@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
