From 7bdc1b4abab3af0a803300f706c9814ef4e20a3e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?YOSHIFUJI=20Hideaki=20/=20=E5=90=89=E8=97=A4=E8=8B=B1?= =?utf8?q?=E6=98=8E?= Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2012 04:29:36 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ndisc: Fix padding error in link-layer address option. If a natural number n exists where 2 + data_len <= 8n < 2 + data_len + pad, post padding is not initialized correctly. (Un)fortunately, the only type that requires pad is Infiniband, whose pad is 2 and data_len is 20, and this logical error has not become obvious, but it is better to fix. Note that ndisc_opt_addr_space() handles the situation described above correctly. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S.
