Sorry I keep delaying replying about this patch. Whenever I start, I run
into a problem with it, then while I'm trying to decide how to respond I
get distracted by something else and forget to come back.

This is a fix for commit db488c79173b240459c7754f38c3c6af9b432970
dnsmasq main process exits without waiting for DAD, this is dnsmasq
daemon's task. So we periodically poll the kernel using netlink and
check whether there are any IPv6 addresses assigned to bridge
which have 'tentative' state. After DAD is finished, execution continues.
I guess that is what dnsmasq was assumed to do.
Correct. The author of that patch assumed that DAD would be finished by
the time dnsmasq daemonized, but as we learned from Simon Kelley on the
dnsmasq mailing list, this isn't the case. We can go ahead and state
this as fact in the commit message.

Difference to v1: fixed syntax (comments and alignment).
Difference to v2: moved to virnetdev.

This code could be much more compact (and only very slightly less
efficient) by using something like:
virNetworkIpDefPtr ipdef;
virSocketAddrPtr addrs = NULL;
size_t i, naddrs = 0;
for (i = 0; (ipdef == virNetworkDefGetIpByIndex(...); i++) {
if (VIR_APPEND_ELEMENT_COPY(addrs, naddrs, ipdef->address) < 0)
return -1;
}
if (naddrs == 0)
return 0;
addrs would then be a pointer to an array of addresses rather than a
pointer to an array of pointers to addresses, so the lower functions
would need to be adjusted accordingly.
(NB: due to the switch from stuff** to stuff*, there would be fewer
mallocs than your existing code, although at each malloc you could
potentially incur the penalty of a copy of all existing elements. For
the size of array we're talking about though, this is inconsequential
(especially since any good malloc implementation will carve out memory
in larger chunks, and so will not need to do a copy each time the region
is realloced).

+ ret = virNetDevWaitDadFinish(addrs, i);

The way you have this now, the above leaks the memory pointed to by each
element in the array. (once you switch from virSocketAddrPtr* to
virSocketAddr* this would no longer be a problem).

This loop *really* bothers me, because there is no failsafe to terminate
it if we never get positive notification that DAD has completed. This
would lock up the network driver startup, which would lock up libvirtd
startup. I think we need to decide on what is the maximum time this
could possibly take to complete (maybe it is somehow based on the number
of interfaces? or maybe it doesn't matter...) and timeout from the loop
after the appropriate iterations.

Is the "ip" command available on non-linux platforms? I know there is *a
lot* of netlink stuff in there). Aside from that, POSIX_SHELL isn't even
defined, so this code would fail to compile on non-Linux platforms with
IP_PATH defined (and it would fail to compile on non-Linux with IP_PATH
*not* defined, since addrs and count would then need ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED).
Anyway we try to avoid execing external binaries unless absolutely
necessary, so I think it's reasonable to only have a stub function that
says "not supported" in place of this (very polite but non-working)
replacement.
Once these 3 issues are dealt with, I think we can (finally) push this.
