From 2b9651d72d3fc1a9053ae1a323f8407e1f63b436 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hannes Frederic Sowa Date: Mon, 24 Jun 2013 22:03:28 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: remove old token ipv6 address as soon as possible If the tokenized ip address is re-set on an interface we depend on the arrival of a new router advertisment to call addrconf_verify to clean up the old address (which valid_lft is now set to 0). Old addresses can linger around for a longer time if e.g. the source of router advertisments vanishes. So, call addrconf_verify immediately after setting the new tokenized address to get rid of the old tokenized addresses.
