This does seem like a reasonable thing to backport, yeah. The patch does not actually apply to v249.11 cleanly, but from a quick look around this is just because of some re-factoring and moving things around. So it should be simple to adapt the patch for the v249.11 codebase.
I will look into patching and testing this out myself. I don't currently have access to Oracle OCI, however. ** Also affects: systemd (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Jammy) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Jammy) Status: Confirmed => Triaged ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu Jammy) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released => Triaged ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Tags added: systemd-sru-next -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2025382 Title: 22.04 DHCPv6 IPv6 broken (at least on Oracle OCI) Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in systemd source package in Jammy: Triaged Bug description: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS kernel 5.15.0-1038-oracle systemd 249.11-0ubuntu3.9 After an update a couple weeks ago, Ubuntu 22.04 can no longer get IPv6 via DHCPv6 systemd-networkd, at least on Oracle OCI, but there are also other similar reports, e.g. https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2487465&p=14146758 Oracle seems to be aware of the issue but they claim it's a Ubuntu 22.04 bug: https://community.oracle.com/customerconnect/discussion/687610/oci- ipv6-address-not-assigned-to-oci-ubuntu-instance-by-dhcp The workaround to assign a static IPv6 is not great when managing multiple cloud instances.
