Many commonly used functions like getifaddrs() invoke RTM_GETLINK
to dump the interface information, and do not need the
the AF_INET6 statististics that are always returned by default
from rtnl_fill_ifinfo().
Computing the statistics can be an expensive operation that impacts
scaling, so it is desirable to avoid this if the information is
not needed.
This patch adds a the RTEXT_FILTER_SKIP_STATS extended info flag that
can be passed with netlink_request() to avoid statistics computation
for the ifinfo path.

It is a prep work to get dst freeing from fib tree undergo
a rcu grace period.
The following is a common paradigm:
if (ip6_del_rt(rt))
dst_free(rt)
which means, if rt cannot be deleted from the fib tree, dst_free(rt) now.
1. We don't know the ip6_del_rt(rt) failure is because it
was not managed by fib tree (e.g. DST_NOCACHE) or it had already been
removed from the fib tree.
2. If rt had been managed by the fib tree, ip6_del_rt(rt) failure means
dst_free(rt) has been called already. A second
dst_free(rt) is not always obviously safe. The rt may have
been destroyed already.
3. If rt is a DST_NOCACHE, dst_free(rt) should not be called.
4. It is a stopper to make dst freeing from fib tree undergo a
rcu grace period.
This patch is to use a DST_NOCACHE flag to indicate a rt is
not managed by the fib tree.

Pull inifiniband/rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
"This is a fairly sizeable set of changes. I've put them through a
decent amount of testing prior to sending the pull request due to
that.
There are still a few fixups that I know are coming, but I wanted to
go ahead and get the big, sizable chunk into your hands sooner rather
than waiting for those last few fixups.
Of note is the fact that this creates what is intended to be a
temporary area in the drivers/staging tree specifically for some
cleanups and additions that are coming for the RDMA stack. We
deprecated two drivers (ipath and amso1100) and are waiting to hear
back if we can deprecate another one (ehca). We also put Intel's new
hfi1 driver into this area because it needs to be refactored and a
transfer library created out of the factored out code, and then it and
the qib driver and the soft-roce driver should all be modified to use
that library.
I expect drivers/staging/rdma to be around for three or four kernel
releases and then to go away as all of the work is completed and final
deletions of deprecated drivers are done.
Summary of changes for 4.3:
- Create drivers/staging/rdma
- Move amso1100 driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
- Move ipath driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
- Add hfi1 driver to staging/rdma and set TODO for move to regular

Like the ipv4 patch with a similar title, this adds a sysctl to allow
the user to change routing behavior based on whether or not the
interface associated with the nexthop was an up or down link. The
default setting preserves the current behavior, but anyone that enables
it will notice that nexthops on down interfaces will no longer be
selected:
net.ipv6.conf.all.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
net.ipv6.conf.default.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
net.ipv6.conf.lo.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
...
When the above sysctls are set, not only will link status be reported to
userspace, but an indication that a nexthop is dead and will not be used
is also reported.

Commit 6fd99094de ("ipv6: Don't reduce hop limit for an interface")
disabled accept hop limit from RA if it is smaller than the current hop
limit for security stuff. But this behavior kind of break the RFC definition.
RFC 4861, 6.3.4. Processing Received Router Advertisements
A Router Advertisement field (e.g., Cur Hop Limit, Reachable Time,
and Retrans Timer) may contain a value denoting that it is
unspecified. In such cases, the parameter should be ignored and the
host should continue using whatever value it is already using.
If the received Cur Hop Limit value is non-zero, the host SHOULD set
its CurHopLimit variable to the received value.
So add sysctl option accept_ra_min_hop_limit to let user choose the minimum
hop limit value they can accept from RA. And set default to 1 to meet RFC
standards.

It is a prep work for the later bug-fix patch which will stop /128 route
from disappearing after pmtu update.
The later bug-fix patch will allow a /128 route and its RTF_CACHE clone
both exist at the same fib6_node. To do this, we need to prepare the
existing fib6 tree search to expect RTF_CACHE for /128 route.
Note that the fn->leaf is sorted by rt6i_metric. Hence,
RTF_CACHE (if there is any) is always at the front. This property
leads to the following:
1. When doing ip6_route_del(), it should honor the RTF_CACHE flag which
the caller is used to ask for deleting clone or non-clone.
The rtm_to_fib6_config() should also check the RTM_F_CLONED and
then set RTF_CACHE accordingly so that:
- 'ip -6 r del...' will make ip6_route_del() to delete a route
and all its clones. Note that its clones is flushed by fib6_del()
- 'ip -6 r flush table cache' will make ip6_route_del() to
only delete clone(s).
2. Exclude RTF_CACHE from addrconf_get_prefix_route() which
should not configure on a cloned route.
3. No change is need for rt6_device_match() since it currently could
return a RTF_CACHE clone route, so the later bug-fix patch will not
affect it.

This patch implements the stable privacy address generation for
link-local and autoconf addresses as specified in RFC7217.
RID = F(Prefix, Net_Iface, Network_ID, DAD_Counter, secret_key)
is the RID (random identifier). As the hash function F we chose one
round of sha1. Prefix will be either the link-local prefix or the
router advertised one. As Net_Iface we use the MAC address of the
device. DAD_Counter and secret_key are implemented as specified.
We don't use Network_ID, as it couples the code too closely to other
subsystems. It is specified as optional in the RFC.
As Net_Iface we only use the MAC address: we simply have no stable
identifier in the kernel we could possibly use: because this code might
run very early, we cannot depend on names, as they might be changed by
user space early on during the boot process.
A new address generation mode is introduced,
IN6_ADDR_GEN_MODE_STABLE_PRIVACY. With iproute2 one can switch back to
none or eui64 address configuration mode although the stable_secret is
already set.
We refuse writes to ipv6/conf/all/stable_secret but only allow
ipv6/conf/default/stable_secret and the interface specific file to be
written to. The default stable_secret is used as the parameter for the
namespace, the interface specific can overwrite the secret, e.g. when
switching a network configuration from one system to another while
inheriting the secret.

Joining multicast group on ethernet level via "ip maddr" command would
not work if we have an Ethernet switch that does igmp snooping since
the switch would not replicate multicast packets on ports that did not
have IGMP reports for the multicast addresses.
Linux vxlan interfaces created via "ip link add vxlan" have the group option
that enables then to do the required join.
By extending ip address command with option "autojoin" we can get similar
functionality for openvswitch vxlan interfaces as well as other tunneling
mechanisms that need to receive multicast traffic. The kernel code is
structured similar to how the vxlan driver does a group join / leave.
example:
ip address add 224.1.1.10/24 dev eth5 autojoin
ip address del 224.1.1.10/24 dev eth5

Currently we don't check if the new MTU is valid or not and this allows
one to configure a smaller than minimum allowed by RFCs or even bigger
than interface own MTU, which is a problem as it may lead to packet
drops.
If you have a daemon like NetworkManager running, this may be exploited
by remote attackers by forging RA packets with an invalid MTU, possibly
leading to a DoS. (NetworkManager currently only validates for values
too small, but not for too big ones.)
The fix is just to make sure the new value is valid. That is, between
IPV6_MIN_MTU and interface's MTU.
Note that similar check is already performed at
ndisc_router_discovery(), for when kernel itself parses the RA.

RFC 4429 ("Optimistic DAD") states that optimistic addresses
should be treated as deprecated addresses. From section 2.1:
Unless noted otherwise, components of the IPv6 protocol stack
should treat addresses in the Optimistic state equivalently to
those in the Deprecated state, indicating that the address is
available for use but should not be used if another suitable
address is available.
Optimistic addresses are indeed avoided when other addresses are
available (i.e. at source address selection time), but they have
not heretofore been available for things like explicit bind() and
sendmsg() with struct in6_pktinfo, etc.
This change makes optimistic addresses treated more like
deprecated addresses than tentative ones.

The kernel forcefully applies MTU values received in router
advertisements provided the new MTU is less than the current. This
behavior is undesirable when the user space is managing the MTU. Instead
a sysctl flag 'accept_ra_mtu' is introduced such that the user space
can control whether or not RA provided MTU updates should be applied. The
default behavior is unchanged; user space must explicitly set this flag
to 0 for RA MTUs to be ignored.

Contrary to common expectations for an "int" return, these functions
return only a positive value -- if used correctly they cannot even
return 0 because the message header will necessarily be in the skb.
This makes the very common pattern of
if (genlmsg_end(...) < 0) { ... }
be a whole bunch of dead code. Many places also simply do
return nlmsg_end(...);
and the caller is expected to deal with it.
This also commonly (at least for me) causes errors, because it is very
common to write
if (my_function(...))
/* error condition */
and if my_function() does "return nlmsg_end()" this is of course wrong.
Additionally, there's not a single place in the kernel that actually
needs the message length returned, and if anyone needs it later then
it'll be very easy to just use skb->len there.
Remove this, and make the functions void. This removes a bunch of dead
code as described above. The patch adds lines because I did
- return nlmsg_end(...);
+ nlmsg_end(...);
+ return 0;
I could have preserved all the function's return values by returning
skb->len, but instead I've audited all the places calling the affected
functions and found that none cared. A few places actually compared
the return value with <= 0 in dump functionality, but that could just
be changed to < 0 with no change in behaviour, so I opted for the more
efficient version.
One instance of the error I've made numerous times now is also present
in net/phonet/pn_netlink.c in the route_dumpit() function - it didn't
check for <0 or <=0 and thus broke out of the loop every single time.
I've preserved this since it will (I think) have caused the messages to
userspace to be formatted differently with just a single message for
every SKB returned to userspace. It's possible that this isn't needed
for the tools that actually use this, but I don't even know what they
are so couldn't test that changing this behaviour would be acceptable.

Use the more common dynamic_debug capable net_dbg_ratelimited

This may have some negative impact on messages that were
emitted at KERN_INFO that are not not enabled at all unless
DEBUG is defined or dynamic_debug is enabled. Even so,
these messages are now _not_ emitted by default.
This also eliminates the use of the net_msg_warn sysctl

Add a sysctl that causes an interface's optimistic addresses
to be considered equivalent to other non-deprecated addresses
for source address selection purposes. Preferred addresses
will still take precedence over optimistic addresses, subject
to other ranking in the source address selection algorithm.
This is useful where different interfaces are connected to
different networks from different ISPs (e.g., a cell network
and a home wifi network).
The current behaviour complies with RFC 3484/6724, and it
makes sense if the host has only one interface, or has
multiple interfaces on the same network (same or cooperating
administrative domain(s), but not in the multiple distinct
networks case.
For example, if a mobile device has an IPv6 address on an LTE
network and then connects to IPv6-enabled wifi, while the wifi
IPv6 address is undergoing DAD, IPv6 connections will try use
the wifi default route with the LTE IPv6 address, and will get
stuck until they time out.
Also, because optimistic nodes can receive frames, issue
an RTM_NEWADDR as soon as DAD starts (with the IFA_F_OPTIMSTIC
flag appropriately set). A second RTM_NEWADDR is sent if DAD
completes (the address flags have changed), otherwise an
RTM_DELADDR is sent.
Also: add an entry in ip-sysctl.txt for optimistic_dad.

Eric Dumazet noticed that all no-nonexthop or no-gateway routes which
are already marked DST_HOST (e.g. input routes routes) will always be
invalidated during sk_dst_check. Thus per-socket dst caching absolutely
had no effect and early demuxing had no effect.
Thus this patch removes rt6i_genid: fn_sernum already gets modified during
add operations, so we only must ensure we mutate fn_sernum during ipv6
address remove operations. This is a fairly cost extensive operations,
but address removal should not happen that often. Also our mtu update
functions do the same and we heard no complains so far. xfrm policy
changes also cause a call into fib6_flush_trees. Also plug a hole in
rt6_info (no cacheline changes).
I verified via tracing that this change has effect.

This patch introduces a possibility for userspace to set various (so far
two) modes of generating addresses. This is useful for example for
NetworkManager because it can set the mode to NONE and take care of link
local addresses itself. That allow it to have the interface up,
monitoring carrier but still don't have any addresses on it.
One more use-case by Dan Williams:
<quote>
WWAN devices often have their LL address provided by the firmware of the
device, which sometimes refuses to respond to incorrect LL addresses
when doing DHCPv6 or IPv6 ND. The kernel cannot generate the correct LL
address for two reasons:
1) WWAN pseudo-ethernet interfaces often construct a fake MAC address,
or read a meaningless MAC address from the firmware. Thus the EUI64 and
the IPv6LL address the kernel assigns will be wrong. The real LL
address is often retrieved from the firmware with AT or proprietary
commands.
2) WWAN PPP interfaces receive their LL address from IPV6CP, not from
kernel assignments. Only after IPV6CP has completed do we know the LL
address of the PPP interface and its peer. But the kernel has already
assigned an incorrect LL address to the interface.
So being able to suppress the kernel LL address generation and assign
the one retrieved from the firmware is less complicated and more robust.

This can be used in virtual networking applications, and

veth interface pairs and/or other virtual interfaces,
and applications that can bind to interfaces and/or IP addresses,
it is possibly to create one or more virtual routers with multiple
hosts attached. The host interfaces can act as IPv6 systems,
with radvd running on the ports in the virtual routers. With the
option provided in this patch enabled, those hosts can now properly

percpu: Remove irqsafe_cpu_xxx variants
We simply say that regular this_cpu use must be safe regardless of
preemption and interrupt state. That has no material change for x86
and s390 implementations of this_cpu operations. However, arches that
do not provide their own implementation for this_cpu operations will
now get code generated that disables interrupts instead of preemption.
probably no arch wants to have SNMP_ARRAY_SZ == 2. At least after
almost 3 years, no one complains.
So, just convert the array to a single pointer and remove snmp_mib_init()
and snmp_mib_free() as well.

addrconf_join_solict and addrconf_join_anycast may cause actions which
need rtnl locked, especially on first address creation.
A new DAD state is introduced which defers processing of the initial
DAD processing into a workqueue.
To get rtnl lock we need to push the code paths which depend on those
calls up to workqueues, specifically addrconf_verify and the DAD
processing.
(v2)
addrconf_dad_failure needs to be queued up to the workqueue, too. This
patch introduces a new DAD state and stop the DAD processing in the
workqueue (this is because of the possible ipv6_del_addr processing
which removes the solicited multicast address from the device).
addrconf_verify_lock is removed, too. After the transition it is not
needed any more.
As we are not processing in bottom half anymore we need to be a bit more
careful about disabling bottom half out when we lock spin_locks which are also
used in bh.

tmp_prefered_lft is an offset to ifp->tstamp, not now. Therefore
age needs to be added to the condition.
Age calculation in ipv6_create_tempaddr is different from the one
in addrconf_verify and doesn't consider ADDRCONF_TIMER_FUZZ_MINUS.
This can cause age in ipv6_create_tempaddr to be less than the one
in addrconf_verify and therefore unnecessary temporary address to
be generated.

root@morgental:~# ip link set foo up mtu 1468
root@morgental:~# ip -6 route show dev foo
fe80::/64 proto kernel metric 256
but after the above commit, no such route shows up.
There is no link local route because dev->dev_addr is 0 (because local ipv4
address is 0), hence no link local address is configured.
In this scenario, the link local address is added manually: 'ip -6 addr add
fe80::1 dev foo' and because prefix is /128, no link local route is added by the
kernel.
Even if the right things to do is to add the link local address with a /64
prefix, we need to restore the previous behavior to avoid breaking userpace.

list. Use this fact to iterate in reverse over addr_list and break out
as soon as a higher scoped one showes up, so we can spare some cycles

Refactor the deletion/update of prefix routes when removing an
address. Now also consider IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE and if there is an address
present with this flag, to not cleanup the route. Instead, assume
that userspace is taking care of this route.
Also perform the same cleanup, when userspace changes an existing address
to add NOPREFIXROUTE (to an address that didn't have this flag). This is
done because when the address was added, a prefix route was created for it.
Since the user now wants to handle this route by himself, we cleanup this
route.
This cleanup of the route is not totally robust. There is no guarantee,

When adding/modifying an IPv6 address, the userspace application needs
a way to suppress adding a prefix route. This is for example relevant
together with IFA_F_MANAGERTEMPADDR, where userspace creates autoconf
generated addresses, but depending on on-link, no route for the
prefix should be added.

In the past the IFA_PERMANENT flag indicated, that the valid and preferred
lifetime where ignored. Since change fad8da3e08 ("ipv6 addrconf: fix
preferred lifetime state-changing behavior while valid_lft is infinity")
we honour at least the preferred lifetime on those addresses. As such
the valid lifetime gets recalculated and updated to 0.
If loopback address is added manually this problem does not occur.
Also if NetworkManager manages IPv6, those addresses will get added via
inet6_rtm_newaddr and thus will have a correct lifetime, too.

Fixed a problem with setting the lifetime of an IPv6
address. When setting preferred_lft to a value not zero or
infinity, while valid_lft is infinity(0xffffffff) preferred
lifetime is set to forever and does not update. Therefore
preferred lifetime never becomes deprecated. valid lifetime
and preferred lifetime should be set independently, even if
valid lifetime is infinity, preferred lifetime must expire
correctly (meaning it must eventually become deprecated)

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"Mostly these are fixes for fallout due to merge window changes, as
well as cures for problems that have been with us for a much longer
period of time"
1) Johannes Berg noticed two major deficiencies in our genetlink
registration. Some genetlink protocols we passing in constant
counts for their ops array rather than something like
ARRAY_SIZE(ops) or similar. Also, some genetlink protocols were
using fixed IDs for their multicast groups.
We have to retain these fixed IDs to keep existing userland tools
working, but reserve them so that other multicast groups used by
other protocols can not possibly conflict.
In dealing with these two problems, we actually now use less state
management for genetlink operations and multicast groups.
2) When configuring interface hardware timestamping, fix several
drivers that simply do not validate that the hwtstamp_config value
is one the driver actually supports. From Ben Hutchings.
3) Invalid memory references in mwifiex driver, from Amitkumar Karwar.
4) In dev_forward_skb(), set the skb->protocol in the right order

5) Bridge erroneously fails to use the proper wrapper functions to make
calls to netdev_ops->ndo_vlan_rx_{add,kill}_vid. Fix from Toshiaki
Makita.
6) When detaching a bridge port, make sure to flush all VLAN IDs to
prevent them from leaking, also from Toshiaki Makita.
7) Put in a compromise for TCP Small Queues so that deep queued devices

decrease. One particularly problematic area is 802.11 AMPDU in

In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we
must explicitly initialize any locks.
The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need
to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize
the structure.
This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code
to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes
this worth while.
Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the
changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some
separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various
maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with
the seqcount lockdep enablement.

Consider the scenario where an IPv6 router is advertising a fixed
preferred_lft of 1800 seconds, while the valid_lft begins at 3600
seconds and counts down in realtime.
A client should reset its preferred_lft to 1800 every time the RA is
received, but a bug is causing Linux to ignore the update.
The core problem is here:
if (prefered_lft != ifp->prefered_lft) {
Note that ifp->prefered_lft is an offset, so it doesn't decrease over
time. Thus, the comparison is always (1800 != 1800), which fails to
trigger an update.
The most direct solution would be to compute a "stored_prefered_lft",
and use that value in the comparison. But I think that trying to filter
out unnecessary updates here is a premature optimization. In order for
the filter to apply, both of these would need to hold:
- The advertised valid_lft and preferred_lft are both declining in
real time.
- No clock skew exists between the router & client.
So in this patch, I've set "update_lft = 1" unconditionally, which
allows the surrounding code to be greatly simplified.

When an Xin6 tunnel is set up, we check other netdevices to inherit the link-
local address. If none is available, the interface will not have any link-local
address. RFC4862 expects that each interface has a link local address.
Now than this kind of tunnels supports x-netns, it's easy to fall in this case
(by creating the tunnel in a netns where ethernet interfaces stand and then
moving it to a other netns where no ethernet interface is available).
RFC4291, Appendix A suggests two methods: the first is the one currently
implemented, the second is to generate a unique identifier, so that we can
always generate the link-local address. Let's use eth_random_addr() to generate
this interface indentifier.
I remove completly the previous method, hence for the whole life of the
interface, the link-local address remains the same (previously, it depends on
which ethernet interfaces were up when the tunnel interface was set up).

Because of the max_addresses check attackers were able to disable privacy
extensions on an interface by creating enough autoconfigured addresses:
<http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2012/q4/292>
But the check is not actually needed: max_addresses protects the
kernel to install too many ipv6 addresses on an interface and guards
addrconf_prefix_rcv to install further addresses as soon as this limit
is reached. We only generate temporary addresses in direct response of
a new address showing up. As soon as we filled up the maximum number of
addresses of an interface, we stop installing more addresses and thus
also stop generating more temp addresses.
Even if the attacker tries to generate a lot of temporary addresses
by announcing a prefix and removing it again (lifetime == 0) we won't
install more temp addresses, because the temporary addresses do count
to the maximum number of addresses, thus we would stop installing new
autoconfigured addresses when the limit is reached.
This patch fixes CVE-2013-0343 (but other layer-2 attacks are still
possible).

There's a race in IPv6 automatic addess assignment. The address is created
with zero lifetime when it's added to various address lists. Before it gets
assigned the correct lifetime, there's a window where a new address may be
configured. This causes the semi-initiated address to be deleted in
addrconf_verify.
This was discovered as a reference leak caused by concurrent run of
__ipv6_ifa_notify for both RTM_NEWADDR and RTM_DELADDR with the same
address.
Fix this by setting the lifetime before the address is added to
inet6_addr_lst.
A few notes:
1. In addrconf_prefix_rcv, by setting update_lft to zero, the
if (update_lft) { ... } condition is no longer executed for newly
created addresses. This is okay, as the ifp fields are set in
ipv6_add_addr now and ipv6_ifa_notify is called (and has been called)
through addrconf_dad_start.
2. The removal of the whole block under ifp->lock in inet6_addr_add is okay,
too, as tstamp is initialized to jiffies in ipv6_add_addr.

RFC3590/RFC3810 specifies we should resend MLD reports as soon as a
valid link-local address is available.
We now use the valid_ll_addr_cnt to check if it is necessary to resend
a new report.
Changes since Flavio Leitner's version:
a) adapt for valid_ll_addr_cnt
b) resend first reports directly in the path and just arm the timer for
mc_qrv-1 resends.

To reduce the number of unnecessary router solicitations, MLDv2 and IGMPv3
messages we need to track the number of valid (as in non-optimistic,
no-dad-failed and non-tentative) link-local addresses. Therefore, this
patch implements a valid_ll_addr_cnt in struct inet6_dev.
We now only emit router solicitations if the first link-local address
finishes duplicate address detection.
The changes for MLDv2 and IGMPv3 are in a follow-up patch.

If the tokenized ip address is re-set on an interface we depend on the
arrival of a new router advertisment to call addrconf_verify to clean
up the old address (which valid_lft is now set to 0). Old addresses can
linger around for a longer time if e.g. the source of router advertisments
vanishes.
So, call addrconf_verify immediately after setting the new tokenized
address to get rid of the old tokenized addresses.

We should check the return value of ipv6_get_lladdr in inet6_set_iftoken.
A possible situation, which could leave ll_addr unassigned is, when
the user removed her link-local address but a global scoped address was
already set. In this case the interface would still be IF_READY and not
dead. In that case the RS source address is some value from the stack.

This patch splits the timers for duplicate address detection and router
solicitations apart. The router solicitations timer goes into inet6_dev
and the dad timer stays in inet6_ifaddr.
The reason behind this patch is to reduce the number of unneeded router
solicitations send out by the host if additional link-local addresses
are created. Currently we send out RS for every link-local address on
an interface.
If the RS timer fires we pick a source address with ipv6_get_lladdr. This
change could hurt people adding additional link-local addresses and
specifying these addresses in the radvd clients section because we
no longer guarantee that we use every ll address as source address in
router solicitations.

Quoting https://bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=812:
[ ip6tables -m addrtype ]
When I tried to use in the nat/PREROUTING it messes up the
routing cache even if the rule didn't matched at all.
[..]
If I remove the --limit-iface-in from the non-working scenario, so just
use the -m addrtype --dst-type LOCAL it works!
This happens when LOCAL type matching is requested with --limit-iface-in,
and the default ipv6 route is via the interface the packet we test
arrived on.
Because xt_addrtype uses ip6_route_output, the ipv6 routing implementation
creates an unwanted cached entry, and the packet won't make it to the
real/expected destination.
Silently ignoring --limit-iface-in makes the routing work but it breaks
rule matching (--dst-type LOCAL with limit-iface-in is supposed to only
match if the dst address is configured on the incoming interface;
without --limit-iface-in it will match if the address is reachable
via lo).
The test should call ipv6_chk_addr() instead. However, this would add
a link-time dependency on ipv6.
There are two possible solutions:
1) Revert the commit that moved ipt_addrtype to xt_addrtype,
and put ipv6 specific code into ip6t_addrtype.
2) add new "nf_ipv6_ops" struct to register pointers to ipv6 functions.
While the former might seem preferable, Pablo pointed out that there
are more xt modules with link-time dependeny issues regarding ipv6,
so lets go for 2).

This patch adds the support of peer address for IPv6. For example, it is
possible to specify the remote end of a 6inY tunnel.
This was already possible in IPv4:
ip addr add ip1 peer ip2 dev dev1
The peer address is specified with IFA_ADDRESS and the local address with
IFA_LOCAL (like explained in include/uapi/linux/if_addr.h).
Note that the API is not changed, because before this patch, it was not
possible to specify two different addresses in IFA_LOCAL and IFA_REMOTE.
There is a small change for the dump: if the peer is different from ::,
IFA_ADDRESS will contain the peer address instead of the local address.

Instead of invalidating all IPv6 addresses with global scope
when one decides to use IPv6 tokens, we should only invalidate
previous tokens and leave the rest intact until they expire
eventually (or are intact forever). For doing this less greedy
approach, we're adding a bool at the end of inet6_ifaddr structure
instead, for two reasons: i) per-inet6_ifaddr flag space is
already used up, making it wider might not be a good idea,
since ii) also we do not necessarily need to export this
information into user space.

This patch adds support for IPv6 tokenized IIDs, that allow
for administrators to assign well-known host-part addresses
to nodes whilst still obtaining global network prefix from
Router Advertisements. It is currently in draft status.
The primary target for such support is server platforms
where addresses are usually manually configured, rather
than using DHCPv6 or SLAAC. By using tokenised identifiers,
hosts can still determine their network prefix by use of
SLAAC, but more readily be automatically renumbered should
their network prefix change. [...]
The disadvantage with static addresses is that they are
likely to require manual editing should the network prefix
in use change. If instead there were a method to only
manually configure the static identifier part of the IPv6
address, then the address could be automatically updated
when a new prefix was introduced, as described in [RFC4192]
for example. In such cases a DNS server might be
configured with such a tokenised interface identifier of
::53, and SLAAC would use the token in constructing the
interface address, using the advertised prefix. [...]
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-chown-6man-tokenised-ipv6-identifiers-02
The implementation is partially based on top of Mark K.
Thompson's proof of concept. However, it uses the Netlink
interface for configuration resp. data retrival, so that
it can be easily extended in future. Successfully tested
by myself.

IPv6 Routing table becomes broken once we do ifdown, ifup of the loopback(lo)
interface. After down-up, routes of other interface's IPv6 addresses through
'lo' are lost.
IPv6 addresses assigned to all interfaces are routed through 'lo' for internal
communication. Once 'lo' is down, those routing entries are removed from routing
table. But those removed entries are not being re-created properly when 'lo' is
brought up. So IPv6 addresses of other interfaces becomes unreachable from the
same machine. Also this breaks communication with other machines because of
NDISC packet processing failure.
This patch fixes this issue by reading all interface's IPv6 addresses and adding
them to IPv6 routing table while bringing up 'lo'.
