Subject: bug#45798: 28.0.50; nsm-check-local-subnet-ipv4 fails with nsm-trust-local-network
Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2021 19:24:47 +0000

I've been consistently seeing the following error when running 'make
check' for a while.  It corresponds to the line in nsm-tests.el where
nsm-trust-local-network is bound to t.

I stepped through nsm-should-check a bit, but I don't understand what is
or should be happening.  The test fails when local var off-net is set to
nil, which happens when nsm-network-same-subnet returns non-nil.  This
happens with the following local var values:

  ip: [0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0]

  info: (lo [0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0]
            [0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0]
            [65535 65535 65535 65535 65535 65535 65535 65535 0])

  addresses: ([0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0])

  network-interface-list:
  ((wlp3s0 [65152 0 0 0 38609 2370 19874 38730 0]
           [65152 0 0 0 65535 65535 65535 65535 0]
           [65535 65535 65535 65535 0 0 0 0 0])

           [10754 32900 8418 50048 65535 65535 65535 65535 0]
           [65535 65535 65535 65535 0 0 0 0 0])
   (lo [0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0] [0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0]
       [65535 65535 65535 65535 65535 65535 65535 65535 0])
   (wlp3s0 [192 168 0 144 0] [192 168 0 255 0] [255 255 255 0 0])
   (lo [127 0 0 1 0] [127 255 255 255 0] [255 0 0 0 0]))

I've observed that the test fails only on my home network.  I've heard
that my ISP and the modem they provide use a weird dual IPv6 stack that
has caused people problems in the past, but I know next to nothing about
these things and can't say if it's related to the issue at hand.

Another observation is that the test succeeds if I replace "google.com"
with "gnu.org".  Should I just change the test to use "gnu.org", and
forget about this?  Or is there some interesting issue here?  Any
suggestions or guidance are very welcome.

Here's my /etc/resolv.conf, in case it matters:

  # Generated by NetworkManager
  nameserver 8.8.8.8
  nameserver 8.8.4.4
  nameserver 2001:4860:4860::8888
  # NOTE: the libc resolver may not support more than 3 nameservers.
  # The nameservers listed below may not be recognized.
  nameserver 2001:4860:4860::8844

[ I've been pointing my DNS settings to Google ever since I spent some
  months in a country with very poor network services. ]

Thanks,
