[Bug 1624722] Re: DHCPv6 does not work in Hyper-V
It was a problem with that Hyper-V version, some DHCPv6 related packet was dropped somehow. Microsoft fixed it in a later version and it started working.

Did this issue start happening after an update/upgrade? Was there a prior kernel version where you were not having this particular problem? Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.8 kernel[0]. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed". Thanks in advance.

[Bug 1624722] Re: DHCPv6 does not work in Hyper-V
I've done the following test today on two physical machines, so no
virtualization is involved.
How to reproduce:
What I have tried today: Installed Ubuntu 14.04 64bit (kernel
4.4.0.-38-generic) on two physical machines (no virtualization
involved). Upgraded them and installed radvd and isc-dhcp-server on one
of them (server). Then connected the two machines directly with a
network cable, no other infrastructure involved.
Server:
- Install Ubuntu 14.04 64bit (kernel 4.4.0.-38-generic)
- Apply all upgrades
- Disconnect the machine from the network
- Enable IPv6 forwarding in /etc/sysctl.conf, this is required by radvd
- Reboot
- Add IPv6 address fc00:0:0:1::1/64 (gateway) to eth0
- Configure radvd (/etc/radvd.conf):
interface eth0
{
AdvSendAdvert on;
AdvManagedFlag on;
prefix fec0:0:0:1::/64
{
AdvOnLink on;
AdvRouterAddr on;
AdvAutonomous off;
AdvValidLifetime 7200;
AdvPreferredLifetime 3600;
};
};
- Configure isc-dhcp-server6:
- In /etc/isc-dhcp-server6 set the INTERFACE to eth0
- Contents of /etc/dhcp/dhcpd6.conf:
authoritative;
ddns-update-style none;
option domain-name "domain";
option dhcp6.name-servers fec0:0:0:0::1;
option dhcp6.domain-search "domain.com";
default-lease-time 3600;
max-lease-time 3600;
shared-network lan {
subnet6 fec0:0:0:1::/64 {
range6 fec0:0:0:1::2 fec0:0:0:1::2;
}
}
- Start both radvd and isc-dhcp-server6 services, there should be no
errors in syslog.
Client:
- Install Ubuntu 14.04 64bit (kernel 4.4.0.-38-generic)
- Apply all upgrades
- Disconnect the machine from the network
- Connect the machine with a direct network cable (or through a desk switch) to
the server machine.
Expected behavior: IPv6 address fc00:0:0:1::2 is assigned to the client
Actual behavior: dhclient is sending solicit requests to the server, it
arrives to the network interface, then eaten by the kernel.
Additional information:
DHCPv6 server does not log anything and does not seem to receive the
packet in user space at all. According to netstat -g the dhcpd process
is correctly registered to broadcast group ff02::1:2 and according to
netstat -nlp it is listening on UDP6 port 547. Running dhcpd in the
foreground with strace confirms that the packet does not arrive to the
process. Same behavior was observed with latest Ubuntu 16.04 64bit.

[Bug 1624722] Re: DHCPv6 does not work in Hyper-V
Adding on to my previous comment, I had tried a fresh Debian jessie install with v3.16 of the Linux kernel. DHCPv6 works just fine until I switch to the one in the jessie-backports repo, which currently is 4.6. So somewhere between 3.16 and one of the 4.x kernels a regression was introduced. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1624722 Title: DHCPv6 does not work in Hyper-V To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1624722/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1624722] Re: DHCPv6 does not work in Hyper-V
I did a quick capture with Wireshark (this time using Hyper-V on Windows 10) and indeed the VM sends out a solicit, but I don't see any evidence of it reaching the router (nothing in the logs). DHCP Guard is switched off but I think that would affect a DHCP server, not a client. Plain SLAAC with my custom DNS server set appears to work correctly, so RA's are getting to the VM just fine. I also did a capture with the same ISO in VirtualBox, and it exchanges DHCPv6 messages with the router right away. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1624722 Title: DHCPv6 does not work in Hyper-V To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1624722/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1624722] Re: DHCPv6 does not work in Hyper-V
In my case this is not caused by Hyper-V's DhcpGuard feature either, because that's turned off for both VMs involved. (Same for RouterGuard.)

Additions to my previous comment: - I have Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (and 16.04 LTS) 64 bit version set up as a router with DHCPv6 support. - Client is vanilla Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit desktop.

[Bug 1624722] Re: DHCPv6 does not work in Hyper-V
Same happens in Ubuntu 14.04 with kernel 4.4.0-36-generic. Also
reproduced on the above 16.04 distribution.
DHCPv6 server: isc-dhcp-server in IPv6 mode (isc-dhcp-server6)
Wireshark captures indicate that the solicit is sent from the client,
arrives to the server's network interface, then lost in the kernel
before arriving to dhcpd.
Cleared ip6tables and tc completely, so no firewall nor QoS could
block/redirect the packet.
Running dhcpd under strace in the foreground confirms that no broadcast
packet is received in user space.
Traced kernel function calls:
#!/bin/bash
mkdir -p /debug
mount -t debugfs nodev /debug
mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
echo '*' >/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
echo function_graph >/debug/tracing/current_tracer
echo 1 >/debug/tracing/tracing_on
sleep 10
echo 0 >/debug/tracing/tracing_on
cat /debug/tracing/trace > tracing.$$.out
Found the following fragment, where the packet is dropped:
ipv6_rcv() {
...
ip6_rcv_finish() {
...
ip6_mc_input() {
ipv6_chk_mcast_addr() {
_raw_read_lock_bh();
_raw_read_unlock_bh() {
__local_bh_enable_ip();
}
}
kfree_skb() {
...
}
}
}
}
(Timing information removed and irrelevant fragments replaced by
ellipsis.)
Relevant kernel source code:
Function discards the packet: ip6_mc_input
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/net/ipv6/ip6_input.c?v=4.4#L285
Decision is based on false value returned here:
deliver = ipv6_chk_mcast_addr(skb->dev, >daddr, NULL);
I verified that deliver is false by instrumenting the kernel with printk
here.
(The long conditional block after the above code line does nothing,
since it is not an MLD packet.)
Packet is discarded at the end of function by calling the kfree_skb
function.
So the ultimate decision is made by this function: ipv6_chk_mcast_addr
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/net/ipv6/mcast.c?v=4.4#L955
Please note that src_addr = NULL. (See the function call above.)
I verified by kernel logging that idev is not NULL, so the device is
found here.
Since src_addr is NULL rv can only be true if the for loop finds the
destination address of the packet (variable: group) in the list of
registered broadcast addresses.
Listing registered broadcast groups: netstat -g
I verified that dhcpd is indeed registered to ff02::1:2
Registration is also visible in the strace output.
I can get an address with the server (from itself) by adding a new
virtual network adapter and connecting it to the same network. So it
works if the packet remains inside the VM and does not go through the
virtual switch.
I have spent days on this problem so far. Any ideas?

[Bug 1624722] Re: DHCPv6 does not work in Hyper-V
apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected ** Description changed: When using Ubuntu (in this case the live 16.04.1 LTS ISO) as a Generation 2 (Gen1 untested) Hyper-V VM, an IPv6 address can't be gotten through DHCPv6. dhclient continues to send out solicitations but they never result in a response. I've looked on the router end (running AdvancedTomato and dnsmasq) and the router is getting the requests and is sending out a advertisement, but the VM never gets it. Using the exact same live ISO works in VirtualBox so I've convinced it is an issue with the Hyper-V network driver or something along those lines. The only IPv6 address that is configured automatically is the fe80 link- local address. Windows VMs and older Linux VMs (Debian jessie with 3.16 kernel) work just fine and receive an IPv6 via DHCPv6.
