Subject: [PATCH 1/4] IPv6: keep route for tentative address
Date: Mon, 12 Apr 2010 08:41:31 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100412154255.641453741@vyatta.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20100412154130.397252857@vyatta.com

[-- Attachment #1: ipv6-addrconf1.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 689 bytes --]

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.
