When the link comes up it assigns addresses
by checking whether the address is 0.0.0.0,
and if so pulling a new address range out of the pool.
If the addresses aren't removed from the pool when the link goes down
then the set of addresses allocated will grow
until all the local address ranges are exhausted,
while it gets a different IP address every time.
This patch frees the addresses when link config is dropped
to fix the address leak,
and on systems which can expect all interfaces to be brought up or down
in a deterministic order this conveniently makes use the same address each time.
LLDP should be received on bridge slaves as they're the entities
directly connected to a peer. Receiving LLDP on the bridge device makes
little sense, Linux by default even filters out LLDP going onto the
bridge device.
Flip the current logic, receive LLDP on bridge slaves don't listen for
them on the bridge itself.
This adds a modified version of dhcp6_option_parse_domainname() that is
able to parse compressed domain names, borrowing the idea from
dns_packet_read_name(). It also adds pieces in networkd-link and
networkd-manager to properly save/load the added option field.
Resolves#2710.
netdev to bond.
There are situations where a link can be in an "UP" state when
systemd-networkd attempts to add the link to a bond device.
This is a problem because the bonding driver will refuse to
enslave a link if it is in the "UP" state.
This check ensures systemd-networkd sets the link to "DOWN"
before attempting to add the link to the bond.
Fixes#5838.
Allow setting bridge port priority in the Bridge section of the network file,
similar to e.g. port path cost setting.
Set the default to an invalid value of 128, and only set the port priority when
it's not 128. Unlike e.g. path cost, zero is a valid priority value.
Add a networkd-test.py to check that bridge port priority is correctly set.
Incidently, fix bridge port cost type and document valid ranges.
IPv6 Neighbor discovery proxy is the IPv6 equivalent to proxy ARP for IPv4.
It is required when ISPs do not unconditional route IPv6 subnets
to their designated target, but expect neighbor solicitation messages
for every address on a link.
A variable IPv6ProxyNDPAddress= is introduced to the [Network] section,
each representing a IPv6 neighbour proxy entry in the neighbour table.
active_slave:
Specifies the new active slave for modes that support it
(active-backup, balance-alb and balance-tlb).
primary slave:
systemd-networks currently lacks the capability to set the primary slave
in an
active-backup bonding. This is necessary if you prefer one interface
over the
other. A common example is a eth0-wlan0 bonding on a laptop where you'd
want to
switch to the wired connection whenever it's available.
Fixes: #2837
When we are in link_enter_configured we assume that the
link->state should be LINK_STATE_SETTING_ROUTES but in some
situation it's LINK_STATlE_SETTING_ADDRESSES.
Just ignore the wrong state.
Also since the return value not used any where
make link_enter_configured return type void.
Fixes: #4746
Never propagate DNS/NTP servers on the local link via the DHCP server. The
DNS/NTP servers 0.0.0.0 and 127.0.0.1 only make sense in the local context,
hence never propagate them automatically to other hosts.
Fixes: #4524
DNS servers must be specified as IP addresses, hence let's store them as that
internally, so that they are guaranteed to be fully normalized always, and
invalid data cannot be stored.
[BridgeFDB] did not apply to bridge ports so far. This patch adds the proper
handling. In case of a bridge interface the correct flag NTF_MASTER is now set
in the netlink call. FDB MAC addresses are now applied in
link_enter_set_addresses to make sure the link is setup.
While an interface is still being processed by udev, it is in state "pending",
instead of "unmanaged". We must not flush device configuration then.
Further fixes commit 3104883ddc after commit c436d55397.
Fixes#4186
Flushing foreign configuration for unmanaged interfaces is outright
evil, especially when it's a regular occurence with Wi-Fi.

Not every link has kind associated with it.

This reworks sd-ndisc and networkd substantially to support IPv6 RA much more
comprehensively. Since the API is extended quite a bit networkd has been ported
over too, and the patch is not as straight-forward as one could wish. The
rework includes:
- Support for DNSSL, RDNSS and RA routing options in sd-ndisc and networkd. Two
new configuration options have been added to networkd to make this
configurable.
- sd-ndisc now exposes an sd_ndisc_router object that encapsulates a full RA
message, and has direct, friendly acessor functions for the singleton RA
properties, as well as an iterative interface to iterate through known and
unsupported options. The router object may either be retrieved from the wire,
or generated from raw data. In many ways the sd-ndisc API now matches the
sd-lldp API, except that no implicit database of seen data is kept. (Note
that sd-ndisc actually had a half-written, but unused implementaiton of such
a store, which is removed now.)
- sd-ndisc will now collect the reception timestamps of RA, which is useful to
make sd_ndisc_router fully descriptive of what it covers.
Fixes: #1079
Let's make sd-lldp a bit more like sd-ndisc ant the other APIs, and add proper
ref counting and a separate call for setting the ifindex.
This also adds a new lldp_reset() call we can use at various places to close
all fds. This is also similar to how sd-ndisc already does it.
We generally only use "const" to constify the destination of pointers, but not
the pointers themselves, as they are copied anyway during C function
invocation. Hence, drop this usage of "const".
dhcp6_request_address() was merely a function to switch the DHCPv6 client from "stateless" mode to "stateful" mode. It was also a one-way switch. Also, to (re)start the client, we would need to repeat separate function calls.
In this patch, dhcp6_request_address() is made a general starter/manager of the DHCPv6 client. It now takes an extra parameter so we will be specifying which mode the DHCPv6 client should be started in. Also it will keep track of the current mode and compare with the newly requested mode, and only restart the client in case there is a difference between them.
This also makes sure that the DHCPv6 client will be (re)started accordingly as per the Router Advertisement flags.
DHCPv6 requires an IPv6 link-local address to work. The client will not be started (even when enabled explicitly with `DHCP=`) if none is configured (either by autoconfiguration or manually). Therefore, disable IPv6 in such case.
Although networkd has option (LinkLocalAddressing=) to toggle IPv6LL autoconfiguration, when it is enabled, the address is autoconfigured by the kernel, but not networkd.
Therefore, we do not statically set IFLA_INET6_ADDR_GEN_MODE to IN6_ADDR_GEN_MODE_EUI64, but dynamically depending on whether stable_secret is set, just as what the kernel does by default.
Note that this does NOT affect the global addresses configured by networkd.
