Hi all,
We encountered the following issue in our regression tests over net-next
branch.
IPv6 loopback ping fails, while it works for IPv4.
Reproduces with all NICs, doesn't seem to be a driver issue.
Example:
# ifconfig ens8
ens8: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 11.141.16.6 netmask 255.255.0.0 broadcast 11.141.255.255
