It seems the discussion has died. How is this to move forward? I'm not sure who is responsible for this part of the kernel.
There are a few options: 1. Broadcast ARP by checking the IP range in kernel (current patch) 2. Broadcast ARP if the "scope" parameter is "link" 3. Broadcast ARP if a new (to be defined) address flag is set. 4. Never broadcast ARP (reject any patch) 5. Further discussion I'm personally fine with 1 or 3, and dislike 2, 4 and 5.
