From 3e6a0243ff002ddbd7ee18a8974ae61d2e6ed00d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Guillaume Nault Date: Sat, 3 May 2025 00:57:52 +0200 Subject: gre: Fix again IPv6 link-local address generation. Use addrconf_addr_gen() to generate IPv6 link-local addresses on GRE devices in most cases and fall back to using add_v4_addrs() only in case the GRE configuration is incompatible with addrconf_addr_gen(). GRE used to use addrconf_addr_gen() until commit e5dd729460ca ("ip/ip6_gre: use the same logic as SIT interfaces when computing v6LL address") restricted this use to gretap and ip6gretap devices, and created add_v4_addrs() (borrowed from SIT) for non-Ethernet GRE ones. The original problem came when commit 9af28511be10 ("addrconf: refuse isatap eui64 for INADDR_ANY") made __ipv6_isatap_ifid() fail when its addr parameter was 0. The commit says that this would create an invalid address, however, I couldn't find any RFC saying that the generated interface identifier would be wrong. Anyway, since gre over IPv4 devices pass their local tunnel address to __ipv6_isatap_ifid(), that commit broke their IPv6 link-local address generation when the local address was unspecified. Then commit e5dd729460ca ("ip/ip6_gre: use the same logic as SIT interfaces when computing v6LL address") tried to fix that case by defining add_v4_addrs() and calling it to generate the IPv6 link-local address instead of using addrconf_addr_gen() (apart for gretap and ip6gretap devices, which would still use the regular addrconf_addr_gen(), since they have a MAC address). That broke several use cases because add_v4_addrs() isn't properly integrated into the rest of IPv6 Neighbor Discovery code. Several of these shortcomings have been fixed over time, but add_v4_addrs() remains broken on several aspects. In particular, it doesn't send any Router Sollicitations, so the SLAAC process doesn't start until the interface receives a Router Advertisement. Also, add_v4_addrs() mostly ignores the address generation mode of the interface (/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/addr_gen_mode), thus breaking the IN6_ADDR_GEN_MODE_RANDOM and IN6_ADDR_GEN_MODE_STABLE_PRIVACY cases. Fix the situation by using add_v4_addrs() only in the specific scenario where the normal method would fail. That is, for interfaces that have all of the following characteristics: * run over IPv4, * transport IP packets directly, not Ethernet (that is, not gretap interfaces), * tunnel endpoint is INADDR_ANY (that is, 0), * device address generation mode is EUI64. In all other cases, revert back to the regular addrconf_addr_gen(). Also, remove the special case for ip6gre interfaces in add_v4_addrs(), since ip6gre devices now always use addrconf_addr_gen() instead. Note: This patch was originally applied as commit 183185a18ff9 ("gre: Fix IPv6 link-local address generation."). However, it was then reverted by commit fc486c2d060f ("Revert "gre: Fix IPv6 link-local address generation."") because it uncovered another bug that ended up breaking net/forwarding/ip6gre_custom_multipath_hash.sh. That other bug has now been fixed by commit 4d0ab3a6885e ("ipv6: Start path selection from the first nexthop"). Therefore we can now revive this GRE patch (no changes since original commit 183185a18ff9 ("gre: Fix IPv6 link-local address generation.").

GRE devices have their special code for IPv6 link-local address generation that has been the source of several regressions in the past. Add selftest to check that all gre, ip6gre, gretap and ip6gretap get an IPv6 link-link local address in accordance with the net.ipv6.conf..addr_gen_mode sysctl. Note: This patch was originally applied as commit 6f50175ccad4 ("selftests: Add IPv6 link-local address generation tests for GRE devices."). However, it was then reverted by commit 355d940f4d5a ("Revert "selftests: Add IPv6 link-local address generation tests for GRE devices."") because the commit it depended on was going to be reverted. Now that the situation is resolved, we can add this selftest again (no changes since original patch, appart from context update in tools/testing/selftests/net/Makefile).
