Hi Hangbin,
My apologies, I should have shared my version of the check function
before. Here it is:
```bash
# Called to validate the addresses on $IFNAME:
#
# 1. Every `temporary` address must have a matching `mngtmpaddr`
# 2. Every `mngtmpaddr` address must have some un`deprecated` `temporary`
#
# Fails the whole test script if a problem is detected, else returns silently.
validate()
{
mng_prefixes=()
undep_prefixes=()
temp_addrs=()
while read -r line; do
line_array=($line)
address="${line_array[1]}"
prefix="$(echo "$address" | cut -d: -f1-4)::/64"
if echo "$line" | grep -q mngtmpaddr; then
mng_prefixes+=("$prefix")
elif echo "$line" | grep -q temporary; then
temp_addrs+=("$address")
if echo "$line" | grep -qv deprecated; then
undep_prefixes+=("$prefix")
fi
fi
done < <(ip -6 addr show dev $IFNAME | grep '^\s*inet6')
# 1. All temporary addresses (temp and dep) must have a matching mngtmpaddr
for address in ${temp_addrs[@]}; do
prefix="$(echo "$address" | cut -d: -f1-4)::/64"
if [[ ! " ${mng_prefixes[*]} " =~ " $prefix " ]]; then
echo "FAIL: Temporary $address with no matching mngtmpaddr!";
exit 1
fi
done
# 2. All mngtmpaddr addresses must have a temporary address (not dep)
for prefix in ${mng_prefixes[@]}; do
if [[ ! " ${undep_prefixes[*]} " =~ " $prefix " ]]; then
echo "FAIL: No undeprecated temporary in $prefix!";
exit 1
fi
done
}
```
Of course this is using awful text parsing and not JSON output. But
the idea is that it groups addresses by their /64 prefix, to confirm
that every /64 containing a mngtmpaddrs address also contains an
undeprecated temporary, and that every /64 containing a temporary
(deprecated or not) contains a mngtmpaddrs.
This can be extended for the lifetime checking: when we build the set
of mngtmpaddrs /64s, we also note the valid/preferred_life_time values
for each mngtmpaddr. Then later when we confirm rule 1 (all temporary
addresses must have a matching mngtmpaddr) we also confirm that each
temporary does not outlive the mngtmpaddr in the same /64.
Happy Friday,
Sam
