From e55ffac6011731c455856072cb23aa20bd55c367 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brian Haley Date: Mon, 10 Jul 2006 15:25:51 -0700 Subject: [IPV6]: order addresses by scope If IPv6 addresses are ordered by scope, then ipv6_dev_get_saddr() can break-out of the device addr_list for() loop when the candidate source address scope is less than the destination address scope.
