ospf6d: ospfv3-setsocket-retry.patch
SYMPTOM: With quagga running on Linux, 'ifdown <if-name>' followed by 'ifup <ifname> can cause OSPFv3 to not receive Hello packets on the interface. ISSUE: Operating System's interface IPv6 readiness may not be guaranteed at the time of interface-up event. Thats because the ipv6 components in an OS may also be listening to the same interface-up event that (in this case) is relayed to OSPFv3. In this failure case, setsockopt with option IPV6_JOIN_GROUP on the interface returned EINVAL. Error logs - OSPF6: Zebra Interface state change: swp1 index 3 flags 11043 metric 1 mtu 1500 OSPF6: Interface Event swp1: [InterfaceUp] OSPF6: Network: setsockopt (20) on ifindex 3 failed: Invalid argument FIX: To take care of this possible race condition, any address-family related setting should be retried. Given it's a rare condition and window of this race should be short, the patch adds a limited retry mechanism for the IPV6 membership setting on the socket.
