+Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: Fixed source specific default route handling.
+
+If there are only IPv6 source specific default routes present, the
+host gets -ENETUNREACH on e.g. connect() because ip6_dst_lookup_tail
+calls ip6_route_output first, and given source address any, it fails,
+and ip6_route_get_saddr is never called.
+
+The change is to use the ip6_route_get_saddr, even if the initial
+ip6_route_output fails, and then doing ip6_route_output _again_ after
+we have appropriate source address available.
+
+Note that this is '99% fix' to the problem; a correct fix would be to
+do route lookups only within addrconf.c when picking a source address,
+and never call ip6_route_output before source address has been
+populated.
