Subject: bridge is not forwaring ICMP6 neighbor solicitation to KVM guest
Hi,
I have a host A running 3.14.0-rc5 with one KVM guest, where network
is set up to use bridge:
# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
br1 8000.0023aeed1a00 no eno1
vnet0
virbr0 8000.000000000000 yes
I'm seeing an issue where bridge (sometimes) stops forwarding ICMP6
neighbor solicitation packets to KVM guest and as result KVM guest doesn't
respond with neighbor advertisement.
I was trying to narrow down conditions when this happens and eventually
came to following packet sent by other host B on same network:

The reason I think this packet is related is because when I send same exact
packet I'm often hitting same issue - bridge stops forwarding ICMP6 neigh.
solicitation packets to KVM guest.
My current way to reproduce this is:
0. host B IP / MAC is: 2620:52:0:1040:221:5aff:fe47:931c / 00:21:5a:47:93:1c
guest IP / MAC is: 2620:52:0:1040:5056:ff:fe00:29 / 52:56:00:00:00:29
1. host B is sending neigh solicit packets every 5 seconds with KVM guest IP
using ns6 from ipv6toolkit: http://www.si6networks.com/tools/ipv6toolkit/
with parameters:
--src-address=2620:52:0:1040:221:5aff:fe47:931c --dst-address=ff02::1:ff00:0029
-t 2620:52:0:1040:5056:ff:fe00:29 --link-src-address=00:21:5a:47:93:1c
--source-lla-opt=00:21:5a:47:93:1c --link-dst-address=33:33:ff:00:00:29
tcpdump running on guest can see both solicit and advertisement packets
2. wait ~5 minutes
3. host B sends Multicast Listener Query packet described above
4. tcpdump running on guest is no longer seeing any neigh solicit packets
I also found out that issue goes away if I do any of following:
1. disable CONFIG_BRIDGE_IGMP_SNOOPING=y
2. echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/net/br1/bridge/multicast_snooping
3. make following change:
diff --git a/net/bridge/br_multicast.c b/net/bridge/br_multicast.c
index ef66365..8ccc0bf 100644
--- a/net/bridge/br_multicast.c
+++ b/net/bridge/br_multicast.c

+ BR_INPUT_SKB_CB(skb)->mrouters_only = 1;*/
if (ip6h->nexthdr != IPPROTO_HOPOPTS ||
ip6h->payload_len == 0)
Change above makes me suspect following patch:
commit 3c3769e63301fd92fcaf51870c371583dd0282ce
Author: Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@....de>
Date: Wed Sep 4 02:13:39 2013 +0200
bridge: apply multicast snooping to IPv6 link-local, too
Please let me know if I can assist in any way to help resolve this.
Regards,
Jan
