Expiring prefixes need not be handled anymore as the kernel has been
instructed not to create routes for DHCPv6 assigned addresses via the
IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE flag.
|
|
The IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE flag prevents the kernel from creating new onlink
prefixes when a DHCPv6 IPv6 address with a prefix length is set from user
space. IPv6 routing will follow the onlink status from Router Advertisment
Prefix Information options or any manually set route, which is the correct
thing to do.
As this flag has a larger value than what fits into an unsigned char, update
the flag attribute to an uint32_t and set it with an IFA_FLAGS attribute
when writing netlink messages to the kernel.

Once IPv6 addresses have been acquired, assign these to the interface
with the prefix lengths taken from the ICMPv6 Router Advertisement
handling code. The preferred and valid IPv6 address lifetimes are
handed to the kernel which will clean up them if not renewed in time.
When a prefix announced via Router Advertisements expires, find all
addresses that match that prefix and update the address to have a
prefix length of 128 causing the prefix to be off-link.

When ICMPv6 Other information is received, enable Information request
in DHCPv6. If the DHCPv6 client already exists, only update the client
if there is a transition from Other to Managed state.
|
|
Handle all aspects of ICMPv6 and DHCPv6 in a file of its own as is done
with DHCPv4 and IPv4LL.
