A mirror of the official Linux kernel repository just in case

The ipv6 redirect target was derived from the ipv4 one, i.e. its
identical to a 'dnat' with the first (primary) address assigned to the
network interface. The code has been moved around to make it usable
from nf_tables too, but its still the same as it was back when this
was added in 2012.
IPv6, however, has different types of addresses, if the 'wrong' address
comes first the redirection does not work.
In Daniels case, the addresses are:
inet6 ::ffff:192 ...
inet6 2a01: ...
... so the function attempts to redirect to the mapped address.
Add more checks before the address is deemed correct:
1. If the packets' daddr is scoped, search for a scoped address too
2. skip tentative addresses
3. skip mapped addresses
Use the first address that appears to match our needs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
