From: Jiri Kosina commit 6ae5f983cf8de769214d2d9e8a783c881eccd4cd in mainline The commit 95c385 broke proper source address selection for cases in which there is a address which is makred 'deprecated'. The commit mistakenly changed ifa->flags to ifa_result->flags (probably copy/paste error from a few lines above) in the 'Rule 3' address selection code. The patch restores the previous RFC-compliant behavior. Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina Signed-off-by: David S.
