In Progress/High. It's kind of annoying, if only just for the log
entries. All of the connection/disconnection states depend a lot on the
RA interval used, but that's still also quite annoying, and the fix is
clearly safe (as it's a new route with a different metric, so we don't
risk breaking stuff too much).

I'm sponsoring this to -proposed shortly, just need to apply the
debdiff, quickly test that it's properly adding the routes, and we
should be ok. It will need to be carefully tested to make sure the added
metric doesn't clash with wireless/wired coexistence: basically, we need
to make sure that on a system connected to both wired and wireless that
has ipv6 on both interfaces, the wireless default v6 route added by NM
needs to have a lower priority (higher metric) than the default ipv6
route added by NM for the wired interface. This will make sure ethernet
remains "preferred" in the event that these networks are in fact
different, and I'm a little worried that the upstream patch breaks this.

Title:
  Logs full with "ICMPv6 RA: ndisc_router_discovery() failed to add
  default route"

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I am observing a lot of "ICMPv6 RA: ndisc_router_discovery() failed to add 
default route" in my logs.
  After a fresh reboot:

  $ dmesg | grep "ICMPv6 RA: ndisc_router_discovery() failed to add default 
route." | wc -l
  46

  First, I thought this is a kernel issue, but than I found a bug-report
  in the Red Hat BTS in [1].

  Just FYI: I am on Linux-3.4-rc4 - with the original Ubuntu/precise
  kernel I haven't seen this which is linux-image-3.2.0-23-generic
  (3.2.0-23.36).
