[openib-general] [PATCH][RFC/v1][11/12] IPoIB IPv6 support

Roland Dreier roland at topspin.com
Thu Nov 18 10:58:56 PST 2004


Add ipv6_ib_mc_map() to convert IPv6 multicast addresses to IPoIB
hardware addresses, and add support for autoconfiguration for devices
with type ARPHRD_INFINIBAND.

The mapping for multicast addresses is described in
  http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipoib-ip-over-infiniband-07.txt
