The interface for creating tuntap devices should be ported to rtnl so it would support the same settings
as other kinds. In the meantime, the best one can do is to drop in a .link file to set the desired options.
Remove the sd_ prefix from internal functions and get rid of the sd_memfd
type. As a memfd is now just a native file descriptor, we can get rid of our
own wrapper type, and also use close() and dup() on them directly.
TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT Allow a listener to be awakened only when data
arrives on the socket. If TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT set on a server-side
listening socket, the TCP/IP stack will not to wait for the final
ACK packet and not to initiate the process until the first packet
of real data has arrived. After sending the SYN/ACK, the server will
then wait for a data packet from a client. Now, only three packets
will be sent over the network, and the connection establishment delay
will be significantly reduced.
The tcp keep alive variables now can be configured via conf
parameter. Follwing variables are now supported by this patch.
tcp_keepalive_intvl: The number of seconds between TCP keep-alive probes
tcp_keepalive_probes: The maximum number of TCP keep-alive probes to
send before giving up and killing the connection if no response is
obtained from the other end.
tcp_keepalive_time: The number of seconds a connection needs to be
idle before TCP begins sending out keep-alive probes.
This reverts commit 9528592ff8.
Apparently TFO is actually the default at least for the server side now.
Also the setsockopt doesn't actually take a bool, but a qlen integer.
TCP Fast Open (TFO) speeds up the opening of successiveTCP)
connections between two endpoints.It works by using a TFO cookie
in the initial SYN packet to authenticate a previously connected
client. It starts sending data to the client before the receipt
of the final ACK packet of the three way handshake is received,
skipping a round trip and lowering the latency in the start of
transmission of data.
This patch adds support for TCP TCP_NODELAY socket option. This can be
configured via NoDelay conf parameter. TCP Nagle's algorithm works by
combining a number of small outgoing messages, and sending them all at
once. This controls the TCP_NODELAY socket option.
This causes machines without connectivity to hang where they would otherwise fail. Keep it
opt-in for now, but consider whether we sholud just drop it.
Newer kernels export meta-information about the origin of an ifname. Respect this
from the ifname rename logic. We do not rename any interfaces that was originally
named by userspace, nor once which have already been renamed from userspace.
Moreover, we optionally do not (the default) rename interfaces which the kernel
claims to have named in a predictable way.
* systemd-bootchart always parses /proc/uptime, although the
information is unnecessary when --rel specified
* use /proc/uptime is overkill, since Linux 2.6.39 we have
clock_gettime(CLOCK_BOOTTIME, ...). The backend on kernel side is
get_monotonic_boottime() in both cases.
* main() uses "if (graph_start <= 0.0)" to detect that /proc is
available.
This is fragile solution as graph_start is always smaller than zero
on all systems after suspend/resume (e.g. laptops), because in this
case the system uptime includes suspend time and uptime is always
greater number than monotonic time. For example right now difference
between uptime and monotonic time is 37 hours on my laptop.
Note that main() calls log_uptime() (to parse /proc/uptime) for each
sample when it believes that /proc is not available. So on my laptop
systemd-boochars spends all live with /proc/uptime parsing +
nanosleep(), try
strace /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-bootchart
to see the never ending loop.
This patch uses access("/proc/vmstat", F_OK) to detect procfs.
We generally have separate man pages for all configuration files.
In this case udev.conf was already described in systemd-udevd.service(8),
but it was hard to find. Docbook makes it hard to add a .so link from
a different section, so describe udev.conf in its own page.
This changes the behavior when both DHCPv4 and IPv4LL are enabled. Before,
we would disable IPv4LL when we got a DHCPv4 lease and enable it if the
lease was lost.
Now we just always set up both, if both are enabled, but the DHCPv4
addresses and routes will always take precedence due to their metric
and scope.
Some events take longer than the default 30 seconds. Killing those
events will leave the machine halfway configured.
Add a commandline option '--event-timeout' to handle these cases.
This is necessary for non-ipv4ll hosts to communicate with ipv4ll-only hosts on the same link. Defaults
to being enabled, but can be opted out.

The following bond options are supported by this patch.
MIIMonitorSec:
Specifies the frequency in milli-seconds that MII link
monitoring will occur.
UpDelaySec:
Specifies the delay time in milli-seconds to enable a link
after a link up status has been detected.
DownDelaySec:
Specifies the delay time in milli-seconds to disable a link
after a link failure has been detected.

A system that is running on a logical partition (LPAR) provided by
PR/SM has access to physical hardware (except CPU). It is true that
PR/SM abstracts the hardware, but only for sharing purposes.
Details are statet at:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/eserver/v1r2/topic/eicaz/eicazzlpar.htm
-->--
In other words, PR/SM transforms physical resources into virtual resources so
that many logical partitions can share the same physical resources.
--<--
Still, from the OS point of view, the shared virtual resource is real
hardware. ConditionVirtualization must be set to false if the OS runs
directly on PR/SM (e.g. in an LPAR).
[zj: reorder code so that variables are not allocated when #if-def is
false. Add commit message.]
