Over the past several years, there have been multiple requests regarding IPv6 or IPv4 binding before addresses are assigned; and many suggestions have been made to use IP_FREEBIND to permit binding before the IP address(es) are actually on-interface, or for HA cases. Is there any particular reason why IP_FREEBIND is not included to solve these binding issues? If there is no specific reason, can you consider adding it? Maxim made suggestions via the lists to bind to [::] AND the IPv6 that's sought to be bound to, however this doesn't appear to work anymore and gives you an emerg crit failure during startup. (NOTE: While nginx -V points at Ubuntu, this is ultimately still a question that should be considered for NGINX at-large.)" enhancement closed minor nginx-core 1.14.x worksforme Linux arstotzka 4.15.0-45-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jan 29 16:28:13 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux "nginx version: nginx/1.14.0 (Ubuntu) built with OpenSSL 1.1.0g 2 Nov 2017 TLS SNI support enabled configure arguments: --with-cc-opt='-g -O2 -fdebug-prefix-map=/build/nginx-FIJPpj/nginx-1.14.0=. -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security -fPIC -Wdate-time -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2' --with-ld-opt='-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now -fPIC' --prefix=/usr/share/nginx --conf-path=/etc/nginx/nginx.conf --http-log-path=/var/log/nginx/access.log --error-log-path=/var/log/nginx/error.log --lock-path=/var/lock/nginx.lock --pid-path=/run/nginx.pid --modules-path=/usr/lib/nginx/modules --http-client-body-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/body --http-fastcgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/fastcgi --http-proxy-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/proxy --http-scgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/scgi --http-uwsgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/uwsgi --with-debug --with-pcre-jit --with-http_ssl_module --with-http_stub_status_module --with-http_realip_module --with-http_auth_request_module --with-http_v2_module --with-http_dav_module --with-http_slice_module --with-threads --with-http_addition_module --with-http_geoip_module=dynamic --with-http_gunzip_module --with-http_gzip_static_module --with-http_image_filter_module=dynamic --with-http_sub_module --with-http_xslt_module=dynamic --with-stream=dynamic --with-stream_ssl_module --with-mail=dynamic --with-mail_ssl_module"
