[Patch v3] IPv6: Fixed support for blackhole and prohibit routes

From: Kamala R
Date: Thu Nov 28 2013 - 04:12:52 EST


From: Kamala R <kamala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The behaviour of blackhole and prohibit routes has been corrected by setting
the input and output pointers of the dst variable appropriately. For
blackhole routes, they are set to dst_discard and to ip6_pkt_discard and
ip6_pkt_discard_out respectively for prohibit routes.
