From 36feaac35405e932ad9c321d7a2db8a7e4a4d7ca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hangbin Liu Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2018 16:52:01 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] ip6_tunnel: respect ttl inherit for ip6tnl man ip-tunnel ttl section says: 0 is a special value meaning that packets inherit the TTL value. IPv4 tunnel respect this in ip_tunnel_xmit(), but IPv6 tunnel has not implement it yet. To make IPv6 behave consistently with IP tunnel, add ipv6 tunnel inherit support.
