Summary

ifconfig.sh up works fine, but ifconfig.sh down doesn't undo things correctly and messes up main loopback interface, leaves 2 test interfaces lying around

Steps to reproduce

as root:

bin/tests/system/ifconfig.sh up
ordinarily a 'make test' would be done here...
bin/tests/system/ifconfig.sh down 

What is the current bug behavior?

ifconfig -a
lo0: flags=3001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,FIXEDMTU,VIRTUAL> mtu 1500 index 1
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask ff000000 
...
lo0: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 index 1
        inet6 ::1/128 
...

bin/tests/system/ifconfig.sh up
bin/tests/system/ifconfig.sh down 
ifconfig: could not create address: Can't assign requested address
ifconfig: cannot unplumb lo0:0: Invalid interface name
ifconfig: cannot unplumb lo0:0: Invalid interface name
ifconfig: could not create address: Can't assign requested address

ifconfig: setifflags: SIOCGLIFFLAGS: lo0:20: no such interface
ifconfig: cannot unplumb lo0:20: No such interface
ifconfig -a

lo0: flags=3001000848<LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,FIXEDMTU,VIRTUAL> mtu 1500 index 1
        inet 10.53.0.1 netmask ff000000 
lo0:12: flags=3001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,FIXEDMTU,VIRTUAL> mtu 1500 index 1
        inet 10.53.1.2 netmask ff000000 
lo0:22: flags=3001000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4,FIXEDMTU,VIRTUAL> mtu 1500 index 1
        inet 10.53.2.2 netmask ff000000 
...
lo0: flags=2002000848<LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 index 1
        inet6 ::1/128 
lo0:12: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 index 1
        inet6 fd92:7065:b8e:99ff::2/64 
lo0:22: flags=2002000849<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv6,VIRTUAL> mtu 8252 index 1
        inet6 fd92:7065:b8e:ff::2/64 
...

Note lo0 is down and lo12, lo22 are lying around still.

Fixed via:

    ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.1 up
    ifconfig lo0:12 down unplumb
    ifconfig lo0:22 down unplumb
    ifconfig lo0 inet6 up
    ifconfig lo0:12 inet6 down unplumb
    ifconfig lo0:22 inet6 down unplumb

What is the expected correct behavior?

ifconfig -a before and after should look the same; lo0 shouldn't be touched

Relevant configuration files

none

Relevant logs and/or screenshots

Possible fixes

Trivial fix; remove "-1" in the down section for int calculation. Also make down do things in same order as up; don't see any advantage to doing it in reverse order.
