Since ipv6 neighbor solicitation and advertisement messages isn't handled gracefully in bond6 driver, we can see packet drop due to inconsistency between mac address in the option message and source MAC . Another examples is ipv6 neighbor solicitation and advertisement messages from VM via tap attached to host bridge, the src mac might be changed through balance-alb mode, but it is not synced with Link-layer address in the option message. The patch implements bond6's tx handle for ipv6 neighbor solicitation and advertisement messages.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
