From 681bf72e4893a187cf6b6b62c08fc193f81c8c2f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Layton Date: Thu, 11 Jun 2009 10:27:31 -0400 Subject: cifs: have cifs parse scope_id out of IPv6 addresses and use it This patch has CIFS look for a '%' in an IPv6 address. If one is present then it will try to treat that value as a numeric interface index suitable for stuffing into the sin6_scope_id field. This should allow people to mount servers on IPv6 link-local addresses.
