From 3dd3bf83574e38578fc9741c0e23e4fa7f7ff96e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Date: Fri, 23 Dec 2005 11:23:21 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [IPV6]: Fix dead lock. We need to relesae ifp->lock before we call addrconf_dad_stop(), which will hold ifp->lock. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S.
