[linux-sparc-users] why can't I connect to a SPARC Linux LDOM via IPv6?

[Alexandre Chartre]

With LDoms vnet on Linux, we have seen some packets being dropped in some cases.
The workaround was to turn tx-checksum-ip-generic off:

# ethtool -K eth0 tx-checksum-ip-generic off

The problem was due to Solaris vsw bug 22567785 (LDoms vswitch can drop
packets bound for physical NIC using LSO). This bug has been fixed in
Solaris.

That's regardless of the OS that I'm coming from...although I _can_ ssh back locally to the (either global or link-level) IPv6 address.
