Return-Path: From: Alexander Aring To: linux-wpan@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-bluetooth@vger.kernel.org, kernel@pengutronix.de, jukka.rissanen@linux.intel.com, Alexander Aring Subject: [PATCH bluetooth-next] 6lowpan: add request for ipv6 module Date: Sun, 21 Jun 2015 17:11:19 +0200 Message-Id: <1434899479-22310-1-git-send-email-alex.aring@gmail.com> Sender: linux-wpan-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: The iphc module depends on CONFIG_IPV6, because it's not very useful to build the module without IPv6 support. Recently an user reported about issues for setting an IPv6 address to a 6LoWPAN interface. The issues was solved by modprobe the ipv6 module before. To avoid such user issues we try to request the ipv6 module when the 6LoWPAN module is loaded.
