From c92a59eca86f5d13ae4d481c3bae6b54609fe006 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Duan Jiong Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2013 12:07:35 +0800 Subject: ipv6: handle Redirect ICMP Message with no Redirected Header option rfc 4861 says the Redirected Header option is optional, so the kernel should not drop the Redirect Message that has no Redirected Header option. In this patch, the function ip6_redirect_no_header() is introduced to deal with that condition.
