Subject: ipv6: Send netlink notification when DAD fails
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e2577a065832f2c6d108de2e027891bdb2d78924;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git

ipv6: Send netlink notification when DAD fails

If we are managing IPv6 addresses using DHCP, it would be nice
for user-space to be notified if an address configured through
DHCP fails DAD.  Otherwise user-space would have to poll to see
whether DAD succeeds.

This patch uses the existing notification mechanism and simply
hooks it into the DAD failure code path.
