Subject: NIP6_FMT "breaks" ifconfig
Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2006 16:35:01 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <26F1D638-7A96-48C6-9191-74363C497820@kernel.crashing.org> (raw)
The use of NIP6_FMT from kernel.h in net/ipv6/addrconf.c changes how /
proc/net/if_inet6 format's IPv6 addresses and thus breaks ifconfig's
ability to display IPv6 addresses. I'm not sure if this is
acceptable breakage of a userspace app or not.
