commit 6c8991f41546c3c472503dff1ea9daaddf9331c2 upstream. ipv6_stub uses the ip6_dst_lookup function to allow other modules to perform IPv6 lookups. However, this function skips the XFRM layer entirely. All users of ipv6_stub->ip6_dst_lookup use ip_route_output_flow (via the ip_route_output_key and ip_route_output helpers) for their IPv4 lookups, which calls xfrm_lookup_route(). This patch fixes this inconsistent behavior by switching the stub to ip6_dst_lookup_flow, which also calls xfrm_lookup_route(). This requires some changes in all the callers, as these two functions take different arguments and have different return types.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
