From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Russell King Subject: ip -6 route shows incorrect route expiry times Date: Sun, 30 Jan 2005 16:08:40 +0000 Message-ID: <20050130160840.C25000@flint.arm.linux.org.uk> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Return-path: To: netdev@oss.sgi.com Content-Disposition: inline Sender: netdev-bounce@oss.sgi.com Errors-to: netdev-bounce@oss.sgi.com List-Id: netdev.vger.kernel.org This looks like a unit conversion error, spotted in Red Hat FC2. On it's own, it doesn't look like there's anything wrong, until you look at two copies of the output 10 seconds apart: rmk@dyn-67:[bk]:<1030> /sbin/ip -6 route; sleep 10; /sbin/ip -6 route default via fe80::a00:2bff:fe95:1d7b dev eth0 proto kernel metric 1024 expires 169sec mtu 1500 advmss 1440 default via fe80::a00:2bff:fe95:1d7b dev eth0 proto kernel metric 1024 expires 168sec mtu 1500 advmss 1440 It appears that the expiry seconds here are actually in units of 10 seconds. Maybe someone's double-converting kernel Hz to user Hz? -- Russell King
