From: Numan Siddique <[email protected]>
Presently when a VM's IPv6 stack sends a Neighbor Solicitation request for its
router IP, (mostly when the ND cache entry for the router is in STALE state)
ovn-controller responds with a Neighbor Adv packet (using the action nd_na).
But it doesn't set 'ND_RSO_ROUTER' in the RSO flags (please see RFC4861 page
23).
Because of which, the VM deletes the default route. The default route gets added
again when the next RA is received (but would again gets deleted if its sends
NS request). And this results in disruption of IPv6 traffic.
This patch addresses this issue by adding a new action 'nd_na_router' which is
same as 'nd_na' but it sets the 'ND_RSO_ROUTER' in the RSO flags. ovn-northd
uses this action. A new action is added instead of modifying the existing
'nd_na'
action. This is because
- We cannot set the RSO flags in the "nd_na { ..actions .. }"
- It would be ugly to have something like nd_na { router_flags, ...actions ..
}
