kludge entries. the situation would occur if you take the following steps:
- join multicast groups (default ones like linklocal all-node is fine)
- remove all IPv6 addresses manually
- remove pcmcia card
to thorpej: pls call in6_ifdetach() when PRU_PURGEIF is raised (just before
removing ifnet). it should do the right thing (unable to perform real test
though)
when the last IPv6 address on an interface is get removed.
in6_ifattach() configures it and in6_ifdetach() removes it.
XXX last part of in6_purgeaddr looks very ugly, but there's no event for
"interface detach" (events are for "address detach").
although this version has been changed somewhat:
- reference counting on ifaddrs isn't as complete as Bill's original
work was. This is hard to get right, and we should attack one
protocol at a time.
- This doesn't do reference counting or dynamic allocation of ifnets yet.
- This version introduces a new PRU -- PRU_PURGEADDR, which is used to
purge an ifaddr from a protocol. The old method Bill used didn't work
on all protocols, and it only worked on some because it was Very Lucky.
This mostly works ... i.e. works for my USB Ethernet, except for a dangling
ifaddr reference left by the IPv6 code; have not yet tracked this down.
- interop issues in ipcomp is fixed
- padding type (after ESP) is configurable
- key database memory management (need more fixes)
- policy specification is revisited
XXX m->m_pkthdr.rcvif is still overloaded - hope to fix it soon
code, from netbsd-current repository.
#ifdef'ed version is always available from ftp.kame.net.
XXX please do not make too many diff-unfriendly changes, we'll need to take
bunch of diffs on upgrade...
AF_INET6 wildcard listening socket. heavily documented in ip6(4).
net.inet6.ip6.bindv6only defines default value. default is 1.
"options INET6_BINDV6ONLY" removes any code fragment that supports
IPV6_BINDV6ONLY == 0 case (not defopt'ed as use of this is rare).
this allows you to disable/enable ICMPv6 node information query/reply
processing (which tells remote end the gethostname(3) setting, interface
addresses on the node, and some other things - documented in
draft-ietf-ipngwg-icmp-name-lookup* or something alike).
to test it, try ping6 -w ::1 with nodeinfo=0 and nodeinfo=1.
(sync with kame change)
due to massive changes in KAME side.
- IPv6 output goes through nd6_output
- faith can capture IPv4 packets as well - you can run IPv4-to-IPv6 translator
using heavily modified DNS servers
- per-interface statistics (required for IPv6 MIB)
- interface autoconfig is revisited
- udp input handling has a big change for mapped address support.
- introduce in4_cksum() for non-overwriting checksumming
- introduce m_pulldown()
- neighbor discovery cleanups/improvements
- netinet/in.h strictly conforms to RFC2553 (no extra defs visible to userland)
- IFA_STATS is fixed a bit (not tested)
- and more more more.
TODO:
- cleanup os-independency #ifdef
- avoid rcvif dual use (for IPsec) to help ifdetach
(sorry for jumbo commit, I can't separate this any more...)
just for reference purposes.
This commit includes 1.4 -> 1.4.1 sync for kame branch.
The branch does not compile at all (due to the lack of ALTQ and some other
source code). Please do not try to modify the branch, this is just for
referenre purposes.
synchronization to latest KAME will take place on HEAD branch soon.
RTM_IFINFO is now 0xf, 0xe is RTM_OIFINFO which returns the old (if_msghdr14)
struct with 32bit counters (binary compat, conditioned on COMPAT_14).
Same for sysctl: node 3 is renamed NET_RT_OIFLIST, NET_RT_IFLIST is now node 4.
Change rt_msg1() to add an mbuf to the mbuf chain instead of just panic()
when the message is larger than MHLEN.
- in in6_ifattach_getifid(), we can grab interface id source iff the source
is universally (worldwide) unique. ARCnet hardware address is of 8bit and
does not satisfy the condition.
(in6_ifattach_getifid() is for getting interface id usable for pseudo
interfaces like gif*)
- xx_to_eui64() should return EUI64 format, not IPv6 interface id format.
this may seem awkward so I wish to clean these things up.
- in nd6.c, change if clause into case clause to allow future addition
of IFT_xxx easier.
This situation happens on severe memory shortage. We may need more
improvements here and there.
- Grab IEEE802 address from IFT_ETHER card, even if the card is
inserted after bootup time. Is there any other card that can be
inserted afterwards? pcmcia fddi card? :-P
- RFC2373 u bit handling suggests that we SHOULD NOT copy interface id from
ethernet card to pseudo interface, when ethernet card has IEEE802/EUI64
with u bit != 0 (this means that IEEE802/EUI64 is not universally unique).
Do not use such address as, for example, interface id for gif interface.
(I have such an ethernet card myself)
This may change interface id for your gif interface. be careful upgrading
rc files.
