Elsukov <ae@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2025-09-23 08:32:45 +0000 IPv6: fix off-by-one in pltime and vltime expiration checks Previously, the macros used '>' instead of '>=' when comparing elapsed time against the preferred and valid lifetimes. This caused any deprecated address to become usable again for one extra second after receiving each Router Advertisement. In that short window, the address could be selected as a source for outgoing connections. Update the checks to use '>=' so that addresses are deprecated or invalid when their lifetime expires.
