Let's clean up hostname_is_valid() a bit: let's turn the second boolean
argument into a more explanatory flags field, and add a flag that
accepts the special name ".host" as valid. This is useful for the
container logic, where the special hostname ".host" refers to the "root
container", i.e. the host system itself, and can be specified at various
places.
let's also get rid of machine_name_is_valid(). It was just an alias,
which is confusing and even more so now that we have the flags param.
When an interface gains carrier but udev have not initialized the
interface or link_initialized_handler() has not been called yet,
then link_configure will be called twice. Thus LLDP client will be
configured twice, and triggers assertion.
Fixes#17929.
After #17834, unreachable routes generated through DHCP6 are managed by
Manager. But they are referrenced by the DHCP6 uplink. So, the routes
managed by Manager must be freed after all Link objects are freed.
Follow-up for 575f14eef0.
Fixes SIGABRT reproted in #17831.
This partially reverts fe841414ef and
2a236f9fc0.
For IPv4, kernel compares the local address, prefix, and prefixlen.
For IPv6, kernel compares only the local address.
Let's follow the kernel's comparison way.
Fixes#17831.
Similar to the previous commit. All callers pass NULL. This will
ease initial nftables backend implementation (less features to cover).
Add the function parameters as local variables and let compiler
remove branches. Followup patch can remove the if (NULL) conditionals.
After fe841414ef, broadcast address is
also compared with existing one to determine whether the address is
foregin or not. So, the address object should not contain unnecessary
information.
Fixes#17803.
This fixes the following race in reconfiguring link:
1. an interface requests UUID.
2. the interface is reconfigured and link_configure() is called.
3. sd-lldp client is started on the interface (it is enabled by default).
4. networkd acquires UUID, and get_product_uuid_handler() calls
link_configure() for the link again.
5. link_lldp_rx_configure() fails to set ifindex for already running
sd-lldp client.
6. the link enters failed state.
They are not really boolean, because we have both ipv4 and ipv6, but
for each protocol we have either unset, no, and yes.
From https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/13316#issuecomment-582906817:
LinkLocalAddressing must be a boolean option, at least for ipv4:
- LinkLocalAddressing=no => no LL at all.
- LinkLocalAddressing=yes + Static Address => invalid configuration, warn and
interpret as LinkLocalAddressing=no, no LL at all.
(we check that during parsing and reject)
- LinkLocalAddressing=yes + DHCP => LL process should be subordinated to the
DHCP one, an LL address must be acquired at start or after a short N
unsuccessful DHCP attemps, and must not stop DHCP to keeping trying. When a
DHCP address is acquired, drop the LL address. If the DHCP address is lost,
re-adquire a new LL address.
(next patch will move in this direction)
- LinkLocalAddressing=fallback has no reason to exist, because LL address must
always be allocated as a fallback option when using DHCP. Having both DHCP
and LL address at the same time is an RFC violation, so
LinkLocalAdressing=yes correctly implemented is already the "fallback"
behavior. The fallback option must be deprecated and if present in older
configs must be interpreted as LinkLocalAddressing=yes.
(removed)
- And for IPv6, the LinkLocalAddress option has any sense at all? IPv6-LL
address aren't required to be always set for every IPv6 enabled interface (in
this case, coexisting with static or dynamic address if any)? Shouldn't be
always =yes?
(good question)
This effectively reverts 29e81083bd. There is no
special "fallback" mode now, so the check doesn't make sense anymore.
