This fault can be shown more simply with the attached create dummies ruby script, which simply adds 16 IPv6 addresses to dummy interfaces.
Running ./create-dummies.rb creates five dummy interfaces 'dummy01' to 'dummy05' each with 16 IPv6 addresses on them. Running 'ip addr show dev dummy04' and 'ifconfig dummy04' shows the problem on Lucid, but not on Natty. ** Attachment added: "create-dummies.rb" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/863394/+attachment/2501383/+files/create-dummies.rb -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/863394 Title: kernel fails to notify IPv6 allocation correctly.
