2.6.30-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Bruno Prémont commit ca6982b858e1d08010c1d29d8e8255b2ac2ad70a upstream. Commit 63d9950b08184e6531adceb65f64b429909cc101 (ipv6: Make v4-mapped bindings consistent with IPv4) changes behavior of inet6_bind() for v4-mapped addresses so it should behave the same way as inet_bind(). During this change setting of err to -EADDRNOTAVAIL got lost: af_inet.c:469 inet_bind() err = -EADDRNOTAVAIL; if (!sysctl_ip_nonlocal_bind && !(inet->freebind || inet->transparent) && addr->sin_addr.s_addr != htonl(INADDR_ANY) && chk_addr_ret != RTN_LOCAL && chk_addr_ret != RTN_MULTICAST && chk_addr_ret != RTN_BROADCAST) goto out; af_inet6.c:463 inet6_bind() if (addr_type == IPV6_ADDR_MAPPED) { int chk_addr_ret; /* Binding to v4-mapped address on a v6-only socket * makes no sense */ if (np->ipv6only) { err = -EINVAL; goto out; } /* Reproduce AF_INET checks to make the bindings consitant */ v4addr = addr->sin6_addr.s6_addr32[3]; chk_addr_ret = inet_addr_type(net, v4addr); if (!sysctl_ip_nonlocal_bind && !(inet->freebind || inet->transparent) && v4addr != htonl(INADDR_ANY) && chk_addr_ret != RTN_LOCAL && chk_addr_ret != RTN_MULTICAST && chk_addr_ret != RTN_BROADCAST) goto out; } else { Signed-off-by: Bruno Prémont Signed-off-by: David S.
