This patch fixes a difference between IPv4 and IPv6 when sending packets to the unspecified address (either 0.0.0.0 or ::) when using raw or un-connected UDP sockets. There are two cases where IPv6 either fails to send anything, or sends with the destination address set to ::. For example: --> ping -c1 0.0.0.0 PING 0.0.0.0 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.032 ms --> ping6 -c1 :: PING ::(::) 56 data bytes ping: sendmsg: Invalid argument Doing a sendto("0.0.0.0") reveals: 10:55:01.495090 IP localhost.32780 > localhost.7639: UDP, length 100 Doing a sendto("::") reveals: 10:56:13.262478 IP6 fe80::217:8ff:fe7d:4718.32779 > ::.7639: UDP, length 100 If you issue a connect() first in the UDP case, it will be sent to ::1, similar to what happens with TCP. This restores the BSD-ism. Signed-off-by: NBrian Haley <brian.haley@hp.com> Signed-off-by: NYOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org>
