My take on this is that it is a bug in the IPv6 code. If the IPv6 people
think that the VLAN code might could be causing this, then I am open to
suggestions as to how the VLAN code might be in error....
There were similar problems with tunnels in 2.6.8 and 2.6.9 kernels. They
seems to be gone now in 2.6.10.
Does it help, Andre?
As said in the subject, 2.6.10 exibits this. I had a similar issue
earlier on in 2.6.8, that one got fixed with a host of other related
ones. Then the same symptoms popped up sometime later in the development
of the kernel; not sure exactly when this got introduced as we only ran
our own internal 2.6.8 tree with the fix in.
I should probably do a binary search and at least pinpoint when it
happened, but I won't have any free resources to do so until sometime
this weekend.
