Hello, Mr yoshfuji:
Thanks for your reply.
The following is the figure.

| Router |

| | eth0 |--- | eth1 |------|----|network|
| |------| | |------| | |-------|

| | eth0 |---|--->fe80::200:ff:fe00:100
| |------| |

| Host |
|-------------|
Host eth0: fe80::200:ff:fe00:100
Router eth0: fe80::20c:29ff:fe24:fa0a
Router eth1: fe80::20c:29ff:fe24:fa14
We ping6 from host's eth0 to Router's eth1. Echo Request's src addr =
fe80::200:ff:fe00:100, dst addr = fe80::20c:29ff:fe24:fa14. And Kernel
just send ICMPv6 redirect packet and then forward the Echo Request to
router's eth0. If we run tcpdump on Host eth0, we can receive the ICMPv6
Redirect packet. And if we send NA which advertises
fe80::20c:29ff:fe24:fa14 MAC address(this is very easy for v6eval tool),
we also can receive the forwarded Echo Request(src:fe80::200:ff:fe00:100
dst is fe80::20c:29ff:fe24:fa14).
I dived into the kernel, and found that maybe function rt6_score_route()
has problems. In rt6_score_route(), if rt6_check_dev() return 0, and the
dst ipv6 addr is link local addr, rt6_socre_route() return -1 directly.
I think this is not correct, we should return -1 only if the entry is in
the route cache, and the dst addr is link local addr. Only entries in
cache may select wrong IPv6 Link Local NIC for a link local dst addr.
because they are copied from static IPv6 fib table entries.
