The hole was present since day one. I was 100% this check is there, but it is not. The problem shows itself, f.e. when Microsoft Network Load Balancer runs on a network. This software resolves IPv6 unicast addresses to multicast MAC addresses. Signed-off-by: Alexey Kuznetsov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
