This patch adds IPv6 support for RFC5082 Generalized TTL Security Mechanism. Very similar to original proposed code; the IPV6 and IPV4 socket options are seperate, but the setting the IPV6 min hopcount also sets IPV4 min ttl. This makes for less possible errors by the programmer when using IPV4 mapped addresses. With this method, the server does have to deal with both IPv4 and IPv6 socket options and the client has to handle the different for each family. On client: int ttl = 255; getaddrinfo(argv[1], argv[2], &hint, &result); for (rp = result; rp != NULL; rp = rp->ai_next) { s = socket(rp->ai_family, rp->ai_socktype, rp->ai_protocol); if (s < 0) continue; if (rp->ai_family == AF_INET) { setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IP, IP_TTL, &ttl, sizeof(ttl)); } else if (rp->ai_family == AF_INET6) { setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IPV6, IPV6_UNICAST_HOPS, &ttl, sizeof(ttl))) } if (connect(s, rp->ai_addr, rp->ai_addrlen) == 0) { ... On server: int minttl = 255 - maxhops; getaddrinfo(NULL, port, &hints, &result); for (rp = result; rp != NULL; rp = rp->ai_next) { s = socket(rp->ai_family, rp->ai_socktype, rp->ai_protocol); if (s < 0) continue; if (rp->ai_family == AF_INET6) setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IPV6, IPV6_MINHOPCOUNT, &minttl, sizeof(minttl)); else setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IP, IP_MINTTL, &minttl, sizeof(minttl)); if (bind(s, rp->ai_addr, rp->ai_addrlen) == 0) break ..
