From a394eef562d781f37a50d99cf1dfe596dc1ed96d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marius Tomaschewski Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2015 15:59:22 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: send NEWLINK on RA managed/otherconf changes The kernel is applying the RA managed/otherconf flags silently and forgets to send ifinfo notify to inform about their change when the router provides a zero reachable_time and retrans_timer as dnsmasq and many routers send it, which just means unspecified by this router and the host should continue using whatever value it is already using. Userspace may monitor the ifinfo notifications to activate dhcpv6. Signed-off-by: Marius Tomaschewski Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- Reading git-format-patch failed
