Date: Wed, 29 Jan 2014 12:11:46 +0530 From: Sohny Thomas <sthomas@...ux.vnet.ibm.com> To: netdev <netdev@...r.kernel.org>, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, yoshfuji@...ux-ipv6.org, Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@...nd.com>, davem@...emloft.net, kumuda <kumuda@...ux.vnet.ibm.com> Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: default route for link local address is not added while assigning a address Resending this on netdev mailing list: Default route for link local address is configured automatically if NETWORKING_IPV6=yes is in ifcfg-eth*. When the route table for the interface is flushed and a new address is added to the same device with out removing linklocal addr, default route for link local address has to added by default. I have found the issue to be caused by this checkin http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/net/ipv6?id=62b54dd91567686a1cb118f76a72d5f4764a86dd According to this change : He removes adding a link local route if any other address is added , applicable across all interfaces though there's mentioned only lo interface So below patch fixes for other devices Signed-off-by: Sohny THomas <sohthoma@...ux.vnet.ibm.com> ----- diff --git a/net/ipv6/addrconf.c b/net/ipv6/addrconf.c index f62c72b..a8a4df9 100644 --- a/net/ipv6/addrconf.c +++ b/net/ipv6/addrconf.c @@ -1763,6 +1763,16 @@ static int addrconf_ifid_infiniband(u8 *eui, struct net_device *dev) return 0; } +static void addrconf_add_lroute(struct net_device *dev) +{ + struct in6_addr addr; + + ipv6_addr_set(&addr, htonl(0xFE800000), 0, 0, 0); + addrconf_prefix_route(&addr, 64, dev, 0, 0); +} + + + static int __ipv6_isatap_ifid(u8 *eui, __be32 addr) { if (addr == 0) @@ -2010,8 +2020,10 @@ static struct inet6_dev *addrconf_add_dev(struct net_device *dev) return ERR_PTR(-EACCES); /* Add default multicast route */ - if (!(dev->flags & IFF_LOOPBACK)) + if (!(dev->flags & IFF_LOOPBACK)){ addrconf_add_mroute(dev); + addrconf_add_lroute(dev); + } return idev; } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
