Hi all, I'm trying to find a way in the kernel to find the device a given IPv6 address is assigned to and then delete that address. I found the function ipv6_get_ifaddr() that seems to do the first step. However, that function looks like it increments a reference count in the corresponding inet6_ifaddr structure. I have a feeling I don't want that to happen. Could someone give a brief description of what the refcnt field is used for, and maybe point me to an example of how to do what I described above correctly. thanks, Joe - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org
