From: Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 617940123e0140521f3080d2befc2bf55bcda094 ] When we modify the route metric, the peer address's route need also be updated. Before the fix: + ip addr add dev dummy1 2001:db8::1 peer 2001:db8::2 metric 60 + ip -6 route show dev dummy1 2001:db8::1 proto kernel metric 60 pref medium 2001:db8::2 proto kernel metric 60 pref medium + ip addr change dev dummy1 2001:db8::1 peer 2001:db8::2 metric 61 + ip -6 route show dev dummy1 2001:db8::1 proto kernel metric 61 pref medium 2001:db8::2 proto kernel metric 60 pref medium After the fix: + ip addr change dev dummy1 2001:db8::1 peer 2001:db8::2 metric 61 + ip -6 route show dev dummy1 2001:db8::1 proto kernel metric 61 pref medium 2001:db8::2 proto kernel metric 61 pref medium Fixes: 8308f3ff1753 ("net/ipv6: Add support for specifying metric of connected routes") Signed-off-by: Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@xxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: David Ahern <dsahern@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
