Hello,
I tried Privacy Extensions, but passed amount of time, kernel put out following message and stoped to make temporary address.
ipv6_create_tempaddr(): regeneration time exceeded. disabled temporary address support.
I've made a fix-patch with other problems as following;
Hunk 1: If RA does not come in amount of time (in something trouble) and ifpub(it has EUI-64 addr) becomes deprecated, and then RA comes again ifpub becomes OK. But temporary address is not made any more. Fix it.
Hunk 2: redundancy code.
Hunk 3: Main code, initialize regen_count.
Thanks, -- Hiroyuki YAMAMORI <h-yamamo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
