Bazel cannot reach to bcr.bazel.build from a ipv4 only machine with --host_jvm_args=-Djava.net.preferIPv6Addresses=true set #21525
Description
Description of the bug:
Recently, we enabled ipv6 support for bazel.build #21155
However, our CI revealed the issue described in the title.
The underlying problem is that with --host_jvm_args=-Djava.net.preferIPv6Addresses=true:
- HttpURLConnection can connect from a ipv4 only machine to a ipv4 host (e.g. github.com)
- HttpURLConnection can NOT connect from a ipv4 only machine to a ipv4 ipv6 dual stacked host (e.g. google.com)
The problem is similar to #2486
