From a7bff75b087e7a355838a32efe61707cfa73c194 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Linus=20L=C3=BCssing?= <linus.luessing@web.de> Date: Tue, 22 Mar 2011 11:40:32 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] bridge: Fix possibly wrong MLD queries' ethernet source address MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The ipv6_dev_get_saddr() is currently called with an uninitialized destination address. Although in tests it usually seemed to nevertheless always fetch the right source address, there seems to be a possible race condition. Therefore this commit changes this, first setting the destination address and only after that fetching the source address.
