From aea7427f70cce5fa8f99ce447b213e9e3b49f24c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shan Wei Date: Thu, 19 Jun 2008 16:29:39 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: Remove options header when setsockopt's optlen is 0 Remove the sticky Hop-by-Hop options header by calling setsockopt() for IPV6_HOPOPTS with a zero option length, per RFC3542. Routing header and Destination options header does the same as Hop-by-Hop options header. Signed-off-by: Shan Wei Acked-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S.
