If I boot the system and bring the interface up (e.g. "ifconfig up") with the cable disconnected, wait a bit, then connect the cable, I don't see the IPv6 DAD probe for the link-local address or the router solicitation multicast. A little investigation shows that the IPv6 addrconf module is assuming "link up" at initialization and is running DAD and RS while the cable is still disconnected. When I connect the cable, the PHY and the gianfar driver detect "link up" but the addrconf module doesn't see the transition.
