This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
Receive Router Solicitations and send a unicast Router Advertisment
in response. Refactor ICMPv6 packet handling code so that the common
ICMPv6 validation parts are reused between the existing router
discovery and the new functionality adding reception of Router
Solicitation messages.
Reuse and refactor the functionality already present for Router
Solicitations in order to create a socket for sending Router
Advertisements. Anticipate reception of incoming Router
Solicitations by setting the ICMPv6 filter accordingly. Also set
the unicast hop limit to 255 for ICMPv6 sockets as unicast Router
Advertisments are to be sent in response to Router Solicitations.
Update the Router Solicitation test case code with a function
definition in order to keep the test case working.
