[ Kamal Mostafa ]
* Release Tracking Bug
- LP: #1626151
* Altering use_tempaddr drops all IPv6 addresses (LP: #994931)
- Revert "UBUNTU: SAUCE: ipv6: make the net.ipv6.conf.all.use_tempaddr
sysctl
propagate to interface settings"
- neigh: new unresolved queue limits
- neigh: Add device constructor/destructor capability.
- atm: clip: Use device neigh support on top of "arp_tbl".
- atm: clip: remove clip_tbl
- neigh: convert parms to an array
- neigh: wrap proc dointvec functions
- neigh: use tbl->family to distinguish ipv4 from ipv6
- neigh: restore old behaviour of default parms values
- neigh: ipv6: respect default values set before an address is assigned to
device
* Xen guest total memory size smaller than specified in virtual configuration
due to Xen balloon driver (LP: #1622567)
- mm: introduce helper function mem_init_print_info() to simplify mem_init()
- xen/balloon: Set balloon's initial state to number of existing RAM pages
* CVE-2016-6136
- audit: fix a double fetch in audit_log_single_execve_arg()
* CVE-2016-6480
- aacraid: Check size values after double-fetch from user
* CVE-2016-6828
- tcp: fix use after free in tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue()

Bug description:
$ uname -a

$ sysctl net.ipv6.conf.eth2.use_tempaddr
net.ipv6.conf.eth2.use_tempaddr = 2
# (as per the default /etc/sysctl.d/10-ipv6-privacy.conf in 12.04)
# Add a static IPv6 address:
$ sudo ip addr add 2001:470:9321:f003::1122/64 dev eth2
# Verify that it has been set up, and that a temporary address and a SLAAC
address also exist:
$ ip -6 addr list dev eth2
4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qlen 1000
inet6 2001:470:9321:f003:74e3:aa2b:7ee5:c002/64 scope global temporary
dynamic
valid_lft 86393sec preferred_lft 14393sec
inet6 2001:470:9321:f003:6c97:24ff:fe3f:263b/64 scope global dynamic
valid_lft 86393sec preferred_lft 14393sec
inet6 2001:470:9321:f003::1122/64 scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 fe80::6c97:24ff:fe3f:263b/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
# Disable RFC 4941 temporary addresses:
$ sudo sysctl net.ipv6.conf.eth2.use_tempaddr=0
net.ipv6.conf.eth2.use_tempaddr = 0
$ ip -6 addr list dev eth2
4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qlen 1000
inet6 fe80::6c97:24ff:fe3f:263b/64 scope link tentative
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
I.e. on setting use_tempaddr=0, _all_ IPv6 addresses are removed,
including statically-configured and non-temporary SLAAC-configured
addresses. (The link-local address reappears quickly but the
'tentative' flag indicates that it has been newly re-added. The SLAAC
address reappears after a slightly longer interval as the kernel
continues to undergo SLAAC, but the static address is gone forever
unless manually reinstated.)
The same happens if use_tempaddr is changed from 0 back to 2.
The expected outcome is that only temporary addresses are affected by a
change to use_tempaddr.
