In the figure, letter 'b' represents a bit from the Bluetooth device address, copied as is without any changes on any bit. This means that no bit in the IID indicates whether the underlying Bluetooth device address is public or random. |0 1|1 3|3 4|4 6| |0 5|6 1|2 7|8 3| +----------------+----------------+----------------+----------------+ |bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb|bbbbbbbb11111111|11111110bbbbbbbb|bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb| +----------------+----------------+----------------+----------------+ The function addrconf_ifid_eui48 will do a u/l bitflip. You need to change that otherwise transparent 6lowpan adaptiation will not match on your local address. Making u/l bit here, but not in IPHC code -> will not work together. --- btw: That's why I think we should provide some function _once_ to generate the IID for iphc code and ipv6. Then such mistakes will not happen. So we don't want to have some module dependency of 6lowpan in ipv6. My first idea is to make a callback in 6lowpan private data of netdevice. :-/ - Alex
