Hi,
I was using UML 2.6.13.1 to listen RTMGRP_IPV6_ADDR netlink group, but
after updating to UML 2.6.14.3, I no longer received any messages. I also
tested "ip -6 monitor addr", but it remained silent as well.
However, "ip -4 monitor addr" works ok.
Checking the linux/rtnetlink.h, it seems like there should be some dummy
RTNLGRPs between RTNLGRP_IPV4_ROUTE and RTNLGRP_IPV6_ADDR, as well as
later in RTNLGRP_DECnet_* and RTNLGRP_IPV6_PREFIX.
So, I tested adding a dummy entry between IPV4_ROUTE and IPV6_ADDR, and
both, my program and ip, received ipv6 address notifications.
Looks like do_one_broadcast if af_netlink.c checks wrong bits.
Cheers,
