Merge tag 'rxrpc-rewrite-20160913-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs David Howells says: ==================== rxrpc: Support IPv6 Here is a set of patches that add IPv6 support. They need to be applied on top of the just-posted miscellaneous fix patches. They are: (1) Make autobinding of an unconnected socket work when sendmsg() is called to initiate a client call. (2) Don't specify the protocol when creating the client socket, but rather take the default instead. (3) Use rxrpc_extract_addr_from_skb() in a couple of places that were doing the same thing manually. This allows the IPv6 address extraction to be done in fewer places. (4) Add IPv6 support. With this, calls can be made to IPv6 servers from userspace AF_RXRPC programs; AFS, however, can't use IPv6 yet as the RPC calls need to be upgradeable. ==================== Reviewed-by: Steve Wise <swise@opengridcomputing.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
