To configure an autoconfigured link-local address (RFC 4862), the
following rc.conf(5) configuration can be used:
ifconfig_bridge0_ipv6="inet6 auto_linklocal"
- if_bridge(4) now removes IPv6 addresses on a member interface to be
added when the parent interface or one of the existing member
interfaces has an IPv6 address. if_bridge(4) merges each link-local
scope zone which the member interfaces form respectively, so it causes
address scope violation. Removal of the IPv6 addresses prevents it.
- if_lagg(4) now removes IPv6 addresses on a member interfaces
unconditionally.
- Set reasonable flags to non-IPv6-capable interfaces. [*]

from scratch, copying needed functionality from the old implemenation
on demand, with a thorough review of all code. The main change is that
interface layer has been removed from the CARP. Now redundant addresses
are configured exactly on the interfaces, they run on.
The CARP configuration itself is, as before, configured and read via
SIOCSVH/SIOCGVH ioctls. A new prefix created with SIOCAIFADDR or
SIOCAIFADDR_IN6 may now be configured to a particular virtual host id,
which makes the prefix redundant.
ifconfig(8) semantics has been changed too: now one doesn't need
to clone carpXX interface, he/she should directly configure a vhid
on a Ethernet interface.
To supply vhid data from the kernel to an application the getifaddrs(8)
function had been changed to pass ifam_data with each address. [1]
The new implementation definitely closes all PRs related to carp(4)
being an interface, and may close several others. It also allows
to run a single redundant IP per interface.
Big thanks to Bjoern Zeeb for his help with inet6 part of patch, for
idea on using ifam_data and for several rounds of reviewing!

an explicit action for INET6 configuration happens. The changes are:
1. When an ND6 flag is changed via SIOCSIFINFO_FLAGS ioctl,
setting ND6_IFF_ACCEPT_RTADV and/or ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL now triggers
an attempt to clear the ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED flag.
2. When an AF_INET6 address is added successfully to an interface and
it is marked as ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED, an attempt to clear the
ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED happens.
This simplifies ND6_IFF_IFDISABLED flag manipulation by users via ifconfig(8);
in most cases manual configuration is no longer needed.
- When ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL is set and no link-local address is assigned to
an interface, SIOCSIFINFO_FLAGS ioctl now calls in6_ifattach() to configure
a link-local address.
This change ensures link-local address configuration when "ifconfig IF inet6"
command is invoked. For example, "ifconfig IF inet6 auto_linklocal" now
always try to configure an LL addr even if ND6_IFF_AUTO_LINKLOCAL is already
set to 1 (i.e. down/up cycle is no longer needed).

- A new per-interface knob IFF_ND6_NO_RADR and sysctl IPV6CTL_NO_RADR.
This controls if accepting a route in an RA message as the default route.
The default value for each interface can be set by net.inet6.ip6.no_radr.
The system wide default value is 0.
- A new sysctl: net.inet6.ip6.norbit_raif. This controls if setting R-bit in
NA on RA accepting interfaces. The default is 0 (R-bit is set based on
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding).
Background:
IPv6 host/router model suggests a router sends an RA and a host accepts it for
router discovery. Because of that, KAME implementation does not allow
accepting RAs when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1. Accepting RAs on a router can
make the routing table confused since it can change the default router
unintentionally.
However, in practice there are cases where we cannot distinguish a host from
a router clearly. For example, a customer edge router often works as a host
against the ISP, and as a router against the LAN at the same time. Another
example is a complex network configurations like an L2TP tunnel for IPv6
connection to Internet over an Ethernet link with another native IPv6 subnet.
In this case, the physical interface for the native IPv6 subnet works as a
host, and the pseudo-interface for L2TP works as the default IP forwarding
route.
Problem:
Disabling processing RA messages when net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1 and
accepting them when net.inet6.ip6.forward=0 cause the following practical
issues:
- A router cannot perform SLAAC. It becomes a problem if a box has
multiple interfaces and you want to use SLAAC on some of them, for
example. A customer edge router for IPv6 Internet access service
using an IPv6-over-IPv6 tunnel sometimes needs SLAAC on the
physical interface for administration purpose; updating firmware
and so on (link-local addresses can be used there, but GUAs by
SLAAC are often used for scalability).
- When a host has multiple IPv6 interfaces and it receives multiple RAs on
them, controlling the default route is difficult. Router preferences
defined in RFC 4191 works only when the routers on the links are
under your control.
Details of Implementation Changes:
Router Advertisement messages will be accepted even when
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1. More precisely, the conditions are as
follow:
(ACCEPT_RTADV && !NO_RADR && !ip6.forwarding)
=> Normal RA processing on that interface. (as IPv6 host)
(ACCEPT_RTADV && (NO_RADR || ip6.forwarding))
=> Accept RA but add the router to the defroute list with
rtlifetime=0 unconditionally. This effectively prevents
from setting the received router address as the box's
default route.
(!ACCEPT_RTADV)
=> No RA processing on that interface.
ACCEPT_RTADV and NO_RADR are per-interface knob. In short, all interface
are classified as "RA-accepting" or not. An RA-accepting interface always
processes RA messages regardless of ip6.forwarding. The difference caused by
NO_RADR or ip6.forwarding is whether the RA source address is considered as
the default router or not.
R-bit in NA on the RA accepting interfaces is set based on
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding. While RFC 6204 W-1 rule (for CPE case) suggests
a router should disable the R-bit completely even when the box has
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1, I believe there is no technical reason with
doing so. This behavior can be set by a new sysctl net.inet6.ip6.norbit_raif
(the default is 0).
Usage:
# ifconfig fxp0 inet6 accept_rtadv
=> accept RA on fxp0
# ifconfig fxp0 inet6 accept_rtadv no_radr
=> accept RA on fxp0 but ignore default route information in it.
# sysctl net.inet6.ip6.norbit_no_radr=1
=> R-bit in NAs on RA accepting interfaces will always be set to 0.
Call the handler function with the lock held, return unlocked as we
might free the entry. Rework functions later in the call graph to be
either called with the lock held or, only if needed, unlocked.
Place asserts to document and tighten assumptions on various lle locking,
which were not always true before.
We call nd6_ns_output() unlocked and the assignment of ip6->ip6_src was
decentralized to minimize possible complexity introduced with the formerly
missing locking there. This also resulted in a push down of local
variable scopes into smaller blocks.

Add kernel side support for Secure Neighbor Discovery (SeND), RFC 3971.
The implementation consists of a kernel module that gets packets from
the nd6 code, sends them to user space on a dedicated socket and reinjects
them back for further processing.
Hooks are used from nd6 code paths to divert relevant packets to the
send implementation for processing in user space. The hooks are only
triggered if the send module is loaded. In case no user space
application is connected to the send socket, processing continues
normaly as if the module would not be loaded. Unloading the module
is not possible at this time due to missing nd6 locking.
The native SeND socket is similar to a raw IPv6 socket but with its own,
internal pseudo-protocol.

In the final case in arptimer, before freeing the expired entry, remove
the reference again and explicitly call callout_stop() to clear the active

In nd6.c:nd6_free() we are only ever called from the callout function and
thus need to remove the reference there as well before calling into
