Create a structure describing a DHCPv6 lease. Add internal functions
for creating a new lease and accessing the server ID, preference and
IAID. Provide functions for clearing addresses and associated timers.
External users are initially given only the capabilities of
referencing and unreferencing the lease structure.
Add the core of DHCPv6 client message retransmission and upper bound
timer and message count handling according to RFC 3315 Secions 7.1.2
and 14. Omit the DHCPv6 initial delay; for now it is assumed that
systemd-networkd will provide decent startup randomization that will
desynchronize the clients.
When reinitializing the client, clear all timers.
Provide functions to bind the ICMPv6 socket to the approriate interface
and set multicast sending and receiving according to RFC 3493, section
5.2. and RFC 3542, sections 3. and 3.3. Filter out all ICMPv6 messages
except Router Advertisements for the socket in question according to
RFC 3542, section 3.2.
Send Router Solicitations to the all routers multicast group as
described in RFC 4861, section 6. and act on the received Router
Advertisments according to section 6.3.7.
Implement a similar API for ICMPv6 handling as is done for DHCPv4 and
DHCPv6.
sd_pid_notify() operates like sd_notify(), however operates on a
different PID (for example the parent PID of a process).
Make use of this in systemd-notify, so that message are sent from the
PID specified with --pid= rather than the usually shortlived PID of
systemd-notify itself.
This should increase the likelyhood that PID 1 can identify the cgroup
that the notification message was sent from properly.
This makes callback behaviour more like sd-event or sd-resolve, and
creates proper object for unregistering callbacks.
Taking the refernce to the slot is optional. If not taken life time of
the slot will be bound to the underlying bus object (or in the case of
an async call until the reply has been recieved).
The bitmask is deprecated in the kernel, so move to the new interface. At the moment
this does not make a difference for us, but it avoids having to change the API in the future.
This means the API can stay the same as for single-part messages by simply passing the head message around. Unrefing
the head of the linked list unrefs the whole list.
Similar to DHCP, the IPv4LL library user can decide to free the LL
client any time the callback is called. Guard against freeing the
LL client in the callback by introducing proper reference counting.
Also update code using the IPv4LL library to properly handle a
returned NULL from the notify and stop functions if the IPv4LL
client was freed.
The DHCP library user can decide to free the DHCP client any time
the callback is called. After the callback has been called, other
computations may still be needed - the best example being a full
restart of the DHCP procedure in case of lease expiry.
Fix this by introducing proper reference counting. Properly handle
a returned NULL from the notify and stop functions if the DHCP
client was freed.
Currently when both ipv4ll and dhcp are enabled, ipv4ll
address (if one has been claimed) is removed when dhcp
address is aquired. This is not the best thing to do
since there might be clients unaware of the removal
trying to communicate.
This patch provides a smooth transition between ipv4ll
and dhcp. If ipv4ll address was claimed [1] before dhcp,
address is marked as deprecated. Deprecated address is still
a valid address and packets can be received on it but address
cannot be selected as a source address. If dhcp lease cannot
be extended, then ipv4ll address is marked as valid again.
[1] If there is no collision, claiming IPv4LL takes between 4 to
7 seconds.
Use a static table with all the typing information, rather than repeated
switch statements. This should make it a lot simpler to add new types.
We need to keep all the type info to be able to create containers
without exposing their implementation details to the users of the library.
As a freebee we verify the types of appended/read attributes.
The API is extended to nicely deal with unions of container types.
Extend rta_offset_tb into a stack of offset tables, one for each parent of the
current container, and make sd_rtnl_message_{enter,exit}_container() pop/push
to this stack.
Also make sd_rtnl_message_rewind() parse the top-level container, and use this
when reading a message from the socket.
This changes the API by dropping the now redundant sd_rtnl_message_read()
method.
Increase the chance of using the same link local address between reboots. The
pseudo random sequence of addresses we attempt is now seeded with data that is
very likely to stay the same between reboots, but at the same time be unique
to the specific machine/nic.
First we try to use the ID_NET_NAME_* data from the udev db combined with the
machin-id, which is guaranteed to be unique and persistent, if available. If
that is not possible (e.g., in containers where we don't have access to the
udev db) we fallback to using the MAC address of the interface, which is
guaranteed to be unique, and likely to be persistent.
[tomegun: three minor changes:
- don't expose HASH_KEY in the siphash24 header
- get rid of some compile-warnings (and some casts at the same time),
by using uint8_t[8] rather than uint64_t in the api
- added commit message]
The new calls work similarly, but enforce a that a common, fixed bus
path prefix is used.
This follows discussions with Simon McVittie on IRC that it should be a
good idea to make sure that people don't use the escaping applied here
too wildly as anything other than the last label of a bus path.
This patch introduces reading ethernet address and IPV4/IPv6
as well which is based on table based look up.
[tomegun: rename read_ether() to read_ether_addr() to match the append function.]
This patch introduces new netlink attribute parsing logic
which is table based lookup and sd_rtnl_message_read_*
methods for reading attributes. By doing this user does not
have to loop for the attribute values . Only providing the
attribute type it gets the attribute values which is optimized
and sd_rtnl_message_read_* methods are simplified.
Implements IPv4LL with respect to RFC 3927
(http://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3927.txt) and integrates it
with networkd. Majority of the IPv4LL state machine is
taken from avahi (http://avahi.org/) project's autoip.
IPv4LL can be enabled by IPv4LL=yes under [Network]
section of .network file.
IPv4LL works independent of DHCP but if DHCP lease is
aquired, then LL address will be dropped.
[tomegun: removed a trailing newline and a compiler warning]
