Hi Horms, Here comes the whole batch again! I've fixed almost all style issues reported by checkpatch.pl, except for some little things which look like they could stay like they are for now (down to 3 warnings and 2 errors). I also integrated your other comments and removed the patch that adds the changelog information (not needed anymore, according to Stephen). These patches are based on lvs-2.6: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/horms/lvs-2.6.git - Full kernel patch in one file: http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~volz/ipvs_ipv6/ipvs_ipv6_v3.patch While not all IPv6 features are working or tested, existing IPv4 features should still work as before. However, to use any of the new features, you will need a new ipvsadm with support for genetlink and IPv6: http://sixpak.org/vince/google/ipvsadm/ (by Vince Busam) To enable IPv6 support in IPVS, set CONFIG_IP_VS_IPV6=y. Short overview: What works with IPv6: - forwarding mechanisms: NAT, DR, maybe Tunnel (not fully tested yet) - protocols: TCP, UDP, ESP, AH (last two not tested) - manipulation and inspection of both IPv4 and IPv6 entries with ipvsadm - 6 out of 10 schedulers What is not supported with IPv6: - handling fragmentation or other extension headers - FTP application helper (can be loaded, but only operates on v4) - sync daemon (can be started, but only operates on v4) - probably some incorrect handling of ICMPv6 or other corner cases Since fragmentation and extension headers should not occur very often, things should "mostly" work. I tested HTTP and DNS over NAT and DR with various supported schedulers without encountering any problems. But we didn't test any exotic situations. Also, there are some TODOs in the code for things that haven't been tested or implemented yet. Thanks for any comments!
