> Reconsidering my commit 20462155 "net: inet_diag: export IPV6_V6ONLY > sockopt", I am not happy with the limitations it causes for socket > analysing code in userspace. Exporting the value only if it is set makes > it hard for userspace to decide whether the option is not set or the > kernel does not support exporting the option at all. > > From an auditor's perspective, the interesting question for listening > AF_INET6 sockets is: "Does it NOT have IPV6_V6ONLY set?" Because it is > the unexpected case. This patch allows to answer this question reliably. > > Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <[email protected]> > Cc: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> Applied, thanks. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
