- sysctl net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1 - ip -6 route add a:b:c:d::/64 dev em1 - ip -6 route show a:b:c:d::/64 dev em1 metric 1024 pref medium Fix it checking disable_ipv6 value in ip6_route_info_create routine Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo.bianc...@redhat.com> --- net/ipv6/route.c | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/net/ipv6/route.c b/net/ipv6/route.c index ba8d5df50ebe..e461ef1158b6 100644 --- a/net/ipv6/route.c +++ b/net/ipv6/route.c @@ -2917,6 +2917,12 @@ static struct rt6_info *ip6_route_info_create(struct fib6_config *cfg, if (!dev) goto out; + if (idev->cnf.disable_ipv6) { + NL_SET_ERR_MSG(extack, "IPv6 is disabled on nexthop device"); + err = -EACCES; + goto out; + } + if (!(dev->flags & IFF_UP)) { NL_SET_ERR_MSG(extack, "Nexthop device is not up"); err = -ENETDOWN; -- 2.14.3
