Check name Status Explanation Title check The title clearly identifies the main change: implementing RFC 8981 for IPv6 temporary addresses. Description check The description is directly related to the changes because RFC 8981 obsoletes RFC 4941, which the pull request updates throughout the IPv6 implementation and documentation. Linked Issues check Check skipped because no linked issues were found for this pull request. Out of Scope Changes check Check skipped because no linked issues were found for this pull request.

- Line 2553: Update the SLAAC mode parsing around the temp/temporary check to
inspect np after a non-token mode, so forms such as private temp and hwaddr
temporary set DHCPCD_SLAACTEMP. Preserve the existing token handling for token

Review comments at @src/ipv6.c:
- Around line 1941-1944: Update the DAD retry-exhaustion handling around
ipv6nd_iffindprefix to mark every RA prefix entry matching ia->iface,
ia->prefix, and ia->prefix_len with IPV6_AF_TEMPFAILED, rather than marking only
the first match. Ensure duplicate advertisements for the same prefix cannot
restart temporary-address generation.
- Line 1636: Guard the condition using IPV6_AF_TEMPORARY so the reference is
compiled only when temporary-address management is enabled; preserve equivalent
behavior in builds both with and without that flag defined.

🟡 Minor · Reject an RA Retrans Timer that removes the temporary-lifetime window. · ipv6.c:1978-1982

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick winReject an RA Retrans Timer that removes the temporary-lifetime window.
RFC 4861 defines no upper bound for the 32-bit RA Retrans Timer. When it makes
ipv6_regen_advance(ifp)at leastTEMP_PREFERRED_LIFETIME, the subtraction formax_desyncwraps before the later guard rejects the address. Temporary-address creation therefore fails. Checkregen_advancebefore calculatingmax_desync.Suggested fix
regen_advance = ipv6_regen_advance(ifp); + if (regen_advance >= TEMP_PREFERRED_LIFETIME) { + errno = EINVAL; + free(ia); + return NULL; + } max_desync = TEMP_PREFERRED_LIFETIME - regen_advance - 1;🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick winInitialize
desync_factorfor imported temporary addresses.
ipv6_handleifaimports a temporary address without callingipv6_createtempaddr, socallocleaves itsdesync_factoras zero. The constructor still derives the address prefix through itsmakepfxpath, so the address matchesipv6_settemptimeand reaches the changed calculation during an RA update. The calculation then allows the fullTEMP_PREFERRED_LIFETIMEinstead of the address-specific desynchronized limit. Initialize imported temporary addresses with the same bounded per-address factor used during temporary-address creation.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
