2019-12-13Properly generate the EUI64 interface identifier from an Ethernet addressGhanan Gowripalan
Fixed a bug where the interface identifier was not properly generated from an Ethernet address. Tests: Unittests to make sure the functions generating the EUI64 interface identifier are correct. PiperOrigin-RevId: 285494562
2019-12-06Do IPv6 Stateless Address Auto-Configuration (SLAAC)Ghanan Gowripalan
This change allows the netstack to do SLAAC as outlined by RFC 4862 section 5.5. Note, this change will not break existing uses of netstack as the default configuration for the stack options is set in such a way that SLAAC will not be performed. See `stack.Options` and `stack.NDPConfigurations` for more details. This change reuses 1 option and introduces a new one that is required to take advantage of SLAAC, all available under NDPConfigurations: - HandleRAs: Whether or not NDP RAs are processes - AutoGenGlobalAddresses: Whether or not SLAAC is performed. Also note, this change does not deprecate SLAAC generated addresses after the preferred lifetime. That will come in a later change (b/143713887). Currently, only the valid lifetime is honoured. Tests: Unittest to make sure that SLAAC generates and adds addresses only when configured to do so. Tests also makes sure that conflicts with static addresses do not modify the static address.

2019-11-06Discover default routers from Router AdvertisementsGhanan Gowripalan
This change allows the netstack to do NDP's Router Discovery as outlined by RFC 4861 section 6.3.4. Note, this change will not break existing uses of netstack as the default configuration for the stack options is set in such a way that Router Discovery will not be performed. See `stack.Options` and `stack.NDPConfigurations` for more details. This change introduces 2 options required to take advantage of Router Discovery, all available under NDPConfigurations: - HandleRAs: Whether or not NDP RAs are processes - DiscoverDefaultRouters: Whether or not Router Discovery is performed Another note: for a NIC to process Router Advertisements, it must not be a router itself. Currently the netstack does not have per-interface routing configuration; the routing/forwarding configuration is controlled stack-wide. Therefore, if the stack is configured to enable forwarding/routing, no Router Advertisements will be processed. Tests: Unittest to make sure that Router Discovery and updates to the routing table only occur if explicitly configured to do so. Unittest to make sure at max stack.MaxDiscoveredDefaultRouters discovered default routers are remembered. PiperOrigin-RevId: 278965143
2019-10-22Auto-generate an IPv6 link-local address based on the NIC's MAC Address.Ghanan Gowripalan
This change adds support for optionally auto-generating an IPv6 link-local address based on the NIC's MAC Address on NIC enable. Note, this change will not break existing uses of netstack as the default configuration for the stack options is set in such a way that a link-local address will not be auto-generated unless the stack is explicitly configured. See `stack.Options` for more details. Specifically, see `stack.Options.AutoGenIPv6LinkLocal`. Tests: Tests to make sure that the IPb6 link-local address is only auto-generated if the stack is specifically configured to do so. Also tests to make sure that an auto-generated address goes through the DAD process. PiperOrigin-RevId: 276059813
2019-10-16Do Duplicate Address Detection on permanent IPv6 addresses.Ghanan Gowripalan
This change adds support for Duplicate Address Detection on IPv6 addresses as defined by RFC 4862 section 5.4. Note, this change will not break existing uses of netstack as the default configuration for the stack options is set in such a way that DAD will not be performed. See `stack.Options` and `stack.NDPConfigurations` for more details. Tests: Tests to make sure that the DAD process properly resolves or fails. That is, tests make sure that DAD resolves only if: - No other node is performing DAD for the same address - No other node owns the same address PiperOrigin-RevId: 275189471

2019-09-09Join IPv6 all-nodes and solicited-node multicast addresses where appropriate.Ghanan Gowripalan
The IPv6 all-nodes multicast address will be joined on NIC enable, and the appropriate IPv6 solicited-node multicast address will be joined when IPv6 addresses are added. Tests: Test receiving packets destined to the IPv6 link-local all-nodes multicast address and the IPv6 solicted node address of an added IPv6 address. PiperOrigin-RevId: 268047073
2019-09-03Make UDP traceroute work.Bhasker Hariharan
Adds support to generate Port Unreachable messages for UDP datagrams received on a port for which there is no valid endpoint. Fixes #703 PiperOrigin-RevId: 267034418
2019-08-27Populate link address cache at dispatchTamir Duberstein
This allows the stack to learn remote link addresses on incoming packets, reducing the need to ARP to send responses. This also reduces the number of round trips to the system clock, since that may also prove to be performance-sensitive. Fixes #739. PiperOrigin-RevId: 265815816

2018-12-16Allow sending of multicast and IPv6 link-local packets w/o route.Chris Kuiper
Same as with broadcast packets, sending of a multicast packet shouldn't require accessing the route table. The same applies to IPv6 link-local addresses, which aren't routable at all (they don't belong to any subnet by definition).
