From: Jiri Pirko Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2014 19:10:18 +0000 (+0200) Subject: ipv6: addrconf: implement address generation modes X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bc91b0f07ada5535427373a4e2050877bcc12218;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git ipv6: addrconf: implement address generation modes 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: 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. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S.
