Hello, I am referring to this gist. I've also seen here issues about address is already in use
. I want to talk about it.
First of all, I want to mention that net.ipv6.bindv6only = 0
is fairly legal for every Linux system because many developers may forget about ipv6, and this option should be enabled globally by default. This option enables binding to both 0.0.0.0
and ::
when bind
has been called with just 0.0.0.0
. It allows programs to bind to IPv6 automatically.
So I am going to provide a pull request that will add the IPV6_V6ONLY
option for socket when we are working with ipv6 protocol, because the current bind
logic actually implies it.
