Would you be able to re-run your tests with a tcpdump command line like:

  tcpdump -v -n -X -s 1600 icmp6

And report the full dump of this first ICMP6 packet in the exchange?

It seems that perhaps the parsing/validation of this packet is failing
somehow, so it would be nice to know exactly what that packet looked
like.

Also, are both sides of your test running 3.9.0-rc5+?

And can you please cc netdev@...r.kernel.org if you follow up with more details?

Thanks!
