Hi, David,
Sorry. it does. I misunderstood the code in __ip_dev_find().
I will delete the rt6_lookup() part from ipv6_dev_find().
Also for the compatibility, tipc part should change to:
@@ -741,10 +741,8 @@ static int tipc_udp_enable(struct net *net,
struct tipc_bearer *b,
struct net_device *dev;
dev = ipv6_dev_find(net, &local.ipv6);
if (!dev)
ub->ifindex = dev->ifindex;
as when dev is not found from the hash list, it should fall back to
the old tipc code.
Ying, what do you think?
