Subject: ipv6: clear RA flags when adding a static route
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/f72514b3c5698e4b900b25345e09f9ed33123de6
Bug-Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/1117959
When an IPv6 Router Advertisement (RA) is received for a prefix, the
kernel creates the corresponding on-link route with flags RTF_ADDRCONF
and RTF_PREFIX_RT configured and RTF_EXPIRES if lifetime is set.
If later a user configures a static IPv6 address on the same prefix the
kernel clears the RTF_EXPIRES flag but it doesn't clear the RTF_ADDRCONF
and RTF_PREFIX_RT. When the next RA for that prefix is received, the
kernel sees the route as RA-learned and wrongly configures back the
lifetime. This is problematic because if the route expires, the static
address won't have the corresponding on-link route.
This fix clears the RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_PREFIX_RT flags preventing that
the lifetime is configured when the next RA arrives. If the static
address is deleted, the route becomes RA-learned again.
Fixes: 14ef37b6d00e ("ipv6: fix route lookup in addrconf_prefix_rcv()")
