[PATCH 0/3] RFC: Reduce differences between inbound and outbound socket binding

[David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>]

The fact that outbound forwarding sockets are bound to the loopback
address, whereas inbound forwarding sockets are (by default) bound to
the unspecified address leads to some unexpected differences between
the paths setting up each of them.

Happily there's an approach to tackling bug 100 which also reduces
those differences, allowing more code to be shared between the two
paths.  Amongst other things, this will make the next steps of
flexible forwarding configuration easier.

David Gibson (3):
  tcp: Merge tcp_ns_sock_init[46]() into tcp_sock_init_one()
  udp: Unify some more inbound/outbound parts of udp_sock_init()
  tcp, udp: Bind outbound listening sockets by interface instead of
    address
