With the previous fix, we only have to register addresses that are not
VALID yet on reception of router advertisements. This removes the need
for the hacky `GNRC_NETIF_FLAGS_6LO_ADDRS_REG` flag that was only
introduced to prevent unnecessary re-registration.
The whole address registration looses its point if all addresses are
marked valid from the get-go. With this fix non-link-local addresses
are first marked TENTATIVE and only after successful registration
marked as VALID. Link-local addresses are assumed to always be VALID.
gnrc_sock currently does not compile with `gnrc_neterr` included, since
both `msg_try_receive()` and `msg_try_send()` expect a *pointer* to a
`msg_t`, not a `msg_t`.
To test, just compile an application using `gnrc_sock` (e.g.
`examples/gcoap`) with `USEMODULE+=gnrc_neterr`.
At the moment ping is crashing if one pings the loopback address.
This was caused in #8214 when we moved interfaces from `kernel_pid_t`
ID to pointer-based handling, since loopback doesn't evaluate to such
an interface.
This fix
* assures that the periodicity of the final router advertisements is
kept (so that no administrative change e.g. adding prefixes to the
prefix list causes additional RAs outside the rate limitation)
* removes all administrative options (PIO, ABRO, 6CO) from final router
advertisements (with router lifetime == 0)
Adds a `nrfmin` case to IID generation, so an IID can be generated
from a `nrfmin` device's (short) address (the long address is just
4-time repetition of the short address).
Moves setting of addresses of length lesser than 3 to a function that
initializes the first 5 byte of the IID with `00:00:00:ff:fe` and then
fills up the rest with zeroes and the given short address.
I applied the following terminology and changed the wording in the doc
accordingly:
* must not: If the parameter is of the value it *must not* be it either
hits an assert or crashes the system.
* may not: The value can be that value, but the function will return an
error.
