SVN rev 196869 on 2009-09-05 17:40:27Z by qingli
MFC r196864
This patch fixes the following issues:
- Interface link-local address is not reachable within the
node that owns the interface, this is due to the mismatch
in address scope as the result of the installed interface
address loopback route. Therefore for each interface
address loopback route, the rt_gateway field (of AF_LINK
type) will be used to track which interface a given
address belongs to. This will aid the address source to
use the proper interface for address scope/zone validation.
- The loopback address is not reachable. The root cause is
the same as the above.
- Empty nd6 entries are created for the IPv6 loopback addresses
only for validation reason. Doing so will eliminate as much
of the special case (loopback addresses) handling code
as possible, however, these empty nd6 entries should not
be returned to the userland applications such as the
"ndp" command.
Since both of the above issues contain common files, these
files are committed together.
