This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled IPv6: keep route for tentative address to the 2.6.34-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ipv6-keep-route-for-tentative-address.patch and it can be found in the queue-2.6.34 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@kernel.org> know about it. From shemminger@vyatta.com Tue Jul 27 16:56:59 2010 From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Date: Mon, 24 May 2010 11:31:18 -0700 Subject: IPv6: keep route for tentative address To: Emil S Tantilov <emils.tantilov@gmail.com> Cc: NetDev <netdev@vger.kernel.org>, stable@kernel.org, Greg KH <greg@kroah.com>, "David S. Miller" <davem@davemloft.net>, "Tantilov, Emil S" <emil.s.tantilov@intel.com> Message-ID: <20100524113118.47cc9852@nehalam> From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> (cherry picked from commit 93fa159abe50d3c55c7f83622d3f5c09b6e06f4b) Recent changes preserve IPv6 address when link goes down (good). But would cause address to point to dead dst entry (bad). The simplest fix is to just not delete route if address is being held for later use.
