kern/57037: unncessary and unwarranted RTM_NEWADDR for IPv6 routing messages
>Number: 57037
>Category: kern
>Synopsis: IPv6 autoconfig causes RTM_NEWADDR messages every 2 minutes (unnecessary and unwarranted)
>Confidential: no
>Severity: serious

>Environment:
System: NetBSD styxnew 9.99.100 NetBSD 9.99.100 (GENERIC) #1: Sat Sep 24 09:01:07 UTC 2022 kardel@gaiatest:/src/NetBSD/current/src/obj.amd64/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC amd64
Architecture: x86_64
Machine: amd64
>Description:
When using auto configured IPv6 addresses RTM_NEWADDR messages show up about every 2 minutes.
No intervening RTM_DELADDR messages are sent inbetween. if_watchd triggers on these causing
scripts to needlessly run on an unchanged network situation.
These message should not be sent unless a real change happens.
>How-To-Repeat:
let NetBSD autoconfigure IPv6 and watch "route monitor".

>Fix:
check IPv6 autoconfiguration code?
