From f74024d9f05caa570dcf7582b498bbf011943491 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Maciej=20=C5=BBenczykowski?= Date: Mon, 7 Nov 2011 14:57:21 +0000 Subject: net: make ipv6 bind honour freebind MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This makes native ipv6 bind follow the precedent set by: - native ipv4 bind behaviour - dual stack ipv4-mapped ipv6 bind behaviour. This does allow an unpriviledged process to spoof its source IPv6 address, just like it currently can spoof its source IPv4 address (for example when using UDP).
