Commiteea40b8f62("infiniband: call ipv6 route lookup via the stub interface") introduced a regression in address resolution when connecting to IPv6 destination addresses. The old code called ip6_route_output(), while the new code calls ipv6_stub->ipv6_dst_lookup(). The two are almost the same, except that ipv6_dst_lookup() also calls ip6_route_get_saddr() if the source address is in6addr_any. This means that the test of ipv6_addr_any(&fl6.saddr) now never succeeds, and so we never copy the source address out. This ends up causing rdma_resolve_addr() to fail, because without a resolved source address, cma_acquire_dev() will fail to find an RDMA device to use. For me, this causes connecting to an NVMe over Fabrics target via RoCE / IPv6 to fail. Fix this by copying out fl6.saddr if ipv6_addr_any() is true for the original source address passed into addr6_resolve(). We can drop our call to ipv6_dev_get_saddr() because ipv6_dst_lookup() already does that work.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
