[Bug 2115418] Re: systemd-networkd-wait-online service times out in IPv6-only environments
Hello Gauthier, or anyone else affected,
Accepted systemd into plucky-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/257.4-1ubuntu3.2 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.
If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
plucky to verification-done-plucky. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-plucky. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.
Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in
advance for helping!
N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Bug description:
[Impact]
In an iSCSI boot scenario within an IPv6-only environment, the link remains in the "configuring" state when the DHCPv6-assigned address conflicts with an already configured address.
Although network connectivity works as expected, this condition causes the systemd-networkd-wait-online service to time out during the boot process.
[Fix]
This issue has been resolved upstream.
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/37916
[Test Plan]
1. Set up an IPv6-only environment with iSCSI boot.
2. Run the networkctl command and verify that no links remain in the "configuring" state.
3. Restart the systemd-networkd-wait-online service and ensure that its status does not show the following:

[Where problems could occur]
The commit introduces a new member variable to track this specific condition and updates the link status accordingly.
If any regressions occur, the link status may become incorrect, potentially causing unexpected behavior in the systemd-networkd-wait-online service.
