Hi all,
Could anyone review this bug fix for ipv6-only system? See https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8293842 for detailed description of this bug.
Ideally, the `socket(PF_INET6, ...)` or `socket(PF_INET, ...)` call should depend on the value of `ipv6_available()`. However, this is only easy to do in net_util_md.c. Without checking `ipv6_available()` in <Linux|MacOSX>SocketOptions.c, I'm not sure if it is possible for ipv6 and ipv4 sockets to differ in the options they support.
For example, for a system with both ipv6 and ipv4, if ipv6 supports TCP_KEEPIDLE but ipv4 does not, then there might be a problem to always report TCP_KEEPIDLE as supported.
I noticed https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8290349 added "isIPv6" parameter to a few functions in <Linux|MacOSX>SocketOptions.c. However, it is not applicable to the `socketOptionSupported()` function. This change is more similar to the `Java_jdk_net_MacOSXSocketOptions_ipDontFragmentSupported0()` function.
