Regression: Router Discovery broken after ifup lan

[aertsk]

Description

Following commit:
c6dae8e#diff-25d902c24283ab8cfbac54dfa101ad31

introduces an issue in odhcpd after 'ifup lan' resulting in the fact that Router Discovery is broken until odhcpd is restarted. Periodic Router Advertisement's are still send out.

Following description describes the reproduction on a TP-Link 1750:

Made use of rdisc6 as part of ndsic6 package (apt install ndisc6) to trigger a Router Solicitation from a host toward the gateway.
host# rdisc6 -1 eth0

REPRODUCTION CONFIG

Used following config on a TP-Link 1750:
Config introduces second bridge 'lan2' as the test bridge next to the existing 'lan' bridge that is used to control the gateway.
Run odhcpd on top of lan2 to handle Router Solicitation/Advertisement

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

STEP 1:

Apply this config, reboot and connect a test host to switch port 3 or 4

STEP 2:

Make sure that Router Solicitation works at this point on lan2

STEP 3:

execute ifup lan2 on target

STEP 4:

Trigger another Router Solicitation toward the gateway which should fail at this point

root@testuser-Latitude-E5410:/usr/localdisk/openwrt/bin/targets/ar71xx/generic# rdisc6 -1 eth0
Soliciting ff02::2 (ff02::2) on eth0...
Timed out.
Timed out.
Timed out.
No response.
root@testuser-Latitude-E5410:/usr/localdisk/openwrt/bin/targets/ar71xx/generic#

Internally the Recv-Q on the raw socket starts to increase until odhcpd is restarted manually.

root@OpenWrt:~# netstat -lnp | grep odhcpd
udp        0      0 :::547                  :::*                                2508/odhcpd

root@OpenWrt:~#

RECOVER THE GATEWAY:

root@OpenWrt:~# /etc/init.d/odhcpd restart
