Linux系统编程获取指定接口的IPv6地址

在Linux系统中需要编程获取某个接口的IPv4地址比较常见, 可以使用ioctl函数等方法, 但是要获取IPv6地址, 以前的一些方法就不一定适合, 从网上查找了很多方法, 有两种我试过都可以得到相应的IPv6地址, 此处直接以一段代码做示例展示如何获取指定接口的(IPv6)本地链路地址(注意, 前提是你的Linux支持IPv6, 目前流行的大多数Linux系统早已支持IPv6).

注意：

关于Interface flags

/* ifa_flags */
#define IFA_F_SECONDARY  0x01
#define IFA_F_TEMPORARY  IFA_F_SECONDARY

#define IFA_F_NODAD  0x02
#define IFA_F_OPTIMISTIC 0x04
#define IFA_F_HOMEADDRESS 0x10
#define IFA_F_DEPRECATED 0x20
#define IFA_F_TENTATIVE  0x40
#define IFA_F_PERMANENT  0x80

一般请情况下flag的值应为0x80,如果为其他值应该怀疑interface在init的时候是否有起来

bug record:

flag=0xc0, init 不对，导致这个interface sendmsg 出错（22）
