The two implementations have almost identical structures - vif_device and mif_device. As a step toward uniforming the mr_tables, eliminate the mif_device and relocate the vif_device definition into a new common header file. Also, introduce a common initializing function for setting most of the vif_device fields in a new common source file. This requires modifying the ipv{4,6] Kconfig and ipv4 makefile as we're introducing a new common config option - CONFIG_IP_MROUTE_COMMON.

Support for IPv6 Identifier Locator Addressing (ILA).
|

ILA is a mechanism to do network virtualization without

encapsulation. The basic concept of ILA is that we split an
|
|
IPv6 address into a 64 bit locator and 64 bit identifier. The
|
|
identifier is the identity of an entity in communication
|
|
("who") and the locator expresses the location of the
|
|
entity ("where").
|
|
|
|
ILA can be configured using the "encap ila" option with
|
|
"ip -6 route" command. ILA is described in
|
|
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-nvo3-ila-00.

IPv6 Rapid Deployment (6rd; draft-ietf-softwire-ipv6-6rd) builds upon
|
|
mechanisms of 6to4 (RFC3056) to enable a service provider to rapidly
|
|
deploy IPv6 unicast service to IPv4 sites to which it provides
|
|
customer premise equipment. Like 6to4, it utilizes stateless IPv6 in
|
|
IPv4 encapsulation in order to transit IPv4-only network

|
infrastructure. Unlike 6to4, a 6rd service provider uses an IPv6
|
|
prefix of its own in place of the fixed 6to4 prefix.
|
|
|
|
With this option enabled, the SIT driver offers 6rd functionality by

providing additional ioctl API to configure the IPv6 Prefix for in

Tunneling means encapsulating data of one protocol type within

another protocol and sending it over a channel that understands the

GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation) and at this time allows

encapsulating of IPv4 or IPv6 over existing IPv6 infrastructure.
|
|
This driver is useful if the other endpoint is a Cisco router: Cisco

likes GRE much better than the other Linux tunneling driver ("IP

tunneling" above). In addition, GRE allows multicast redistribution

through the tunnel.
