From e16e888b525503be05b3aea64190e8b3bdef44d0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Stenberg Date: Tue, 5 May 2015 13:36:59 +0300 Subject: ipv6: Fixed source specific default route handling. If there are only IPv6 source specific default routes present, the host gets -ENETUNREACH on e.g. connect() because ip6_dst_lookup_tail calls ip6_route_output first, and given source address any, it fails, and ip6_route_get_saddr is never called. The change is to use the ip6_route_get_saddr, even if the initial ip6_route_output fails, and then doing ip6_route_output _again_ after we have appropriate source address available. Note that this is '99% fix' to the problem; a correct fix would be to do route lookups only within addrconf.c when picking a source address, and never call ip6_route_output before source address has been populated.
