When DHCP6 and RA are enabled, and RA does not provide any addresses,
then link may become configured state even if no address is assigned,
due to the time-lag between RA completion and DHCP reply.
This makes if DHCP is explicitly enabled, then link must have at least
one valid address to be in the configured state.
While investigating https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/16356, I
discovered that networkd stops the radv service before adding or updating
prefixes and then starts it again. This causes networkd to send an RA with
a router lifetime of zero, causing the routes to flap on systems receiving
the RA for a fraction of a second before radv is started again and proper
RAs are sent. That has the potential to cause issues with latency-sensitive
traffic like gaming or VoIP. This patch adds a boolean argument to the
sd_radv_stop() function to control this behavior. The zero lifetime RA is
still sent whenever radv is actually being stopped, but when it is being
restarted for a prefix update (from networkd-dhcp6.c), the final RA is no
longer sent to avoid the route flapping.
SR-IOV provides the ability to partition a single physical PCI
resource into virtual PCI functions which can then be injected in
to a VM. In the case of network VFs, SR-IOV improves north-south n
etwork performance (that is, traffic with endpoints outside the
host machine) by allowing traffic to bypass the host machine’s network stack.
I'm not sure if I understand the code correctly, but it seems that if
storig in the second set failed, we'd return with the first set having
no reference on the link object, and the link object could be freed in the
future, leaving the set with a dangling reference.
Patch contains a coccinelle script, but it only works in some cases. Many
parts were converted by hand.
Note: I did not fix errors in return value handing. This will be done separate
to keep the patch comprehensible. No functional change is intended in this
patch.
This is an attempt to clean up the POP3/SMTP/LPR/… DHCP lease server
data logic in networkd. This reduces code duplication and fixes a number
of bugs.
This removes any support for collecting POP3/SMPT/LPR servers acquired
via local DHCP client releases since noone uses that, and given how old
these protocols are I doubt this will change. It keeps support for
configuring them for the dhcp server however.
The differences between the DNS/NTP/SIP/POP3/SMTP/LPR configuration
logics are minimized.
This removes the relevant symbols from sd-network.h (which is an
internal API only at this point after all).
This is unfortunately not well test, given the old code for this had
barely any tests. But the new code should not perform worse at least,
and allow us to release, since it corrects some interfaces visible in
the .network configuration format.
Fixes: #15943
To make Driver= in [Match] section work in containers.
Note that ID_NET_DRIVER= property in udev database is set with the
result of the ethtool. So, this should not change anything for
non-container cases.
Closes#15678.
This is an attempt to clean-up the DHCP lease server type code a bit. We
now strictly use the same enum everywhere, and store server info in an
array. Moreover, we use the same nomenclature everywhere.
This only makes the changes in the sd-dhcp code. The networkd code is
untouched so far (but should be fixed up like this too. But it's more
complicated since this would then touch actual settings in .network
files).
Note that this also changes some field names in serialized lease files.
But given that these field names have not been part of a released
version of systemd yet, such a change should be ok.
This is pure renaming/refactoring, shouldn't actually change any
behaviour.
In DHCPv6-PD environment, where WAN interface requests IPv6 via DHCPv6,
receives the address as well as delegated prefixes, with LAN interfaces
serving those delegated prefixes in their router advertisement messages.
The LAN interfaces on the router themselves do not have
the IPv6 addresses assigned by networkd from the prefix it
serves on that interface. Now this patch enables it.
We'd start writing an entry line, then another one, then another one,
and then output the rest of the first one, and then some other random
stuff, and the rest of some other lines... Results were ...eh... random.
Let's define a helper to avoid some of the copy&paste madness, and separate
blocks that output a single line with /**********************************/.
This rework doesn't change what data is written, it only tries to fix the
format of the output. The fact that some entries only write data from
link->network, and some from either link->network or link, some stuff only
for dhpc4 leases while some for both dhpc4 and dhcp6, etc, looks rather
suspicious too, but I didn't touch this.
Defines how link-local and autoconf addresses are generated.
0: generate address based on EUI64 (default)
1: do no generate a link-local address, use EUI64 for addresses generated
from autoconf
2: generate stable privacy addresses, using the secret from
stable_secret (RFC7217)
3: generate stable privacy addresses, using a random secret if unset
Link groups are similar to port ranges found in managed switches.
You can add network interfaces to a numbered group and perform operations
on all the interfaces from that group at once.
Commit 08c588d18b moved attachment of the
sd-event into creation of the dhcp_client or ipv4ll in dhcp4_configure()
or ipv4ll_configure(), but these can also be created in link_load(),
so that creation needs to also perform sd-event attachment.
Without this, dhcp_client or ipv4ll created in link_load() will not have
an ->event and will fail assertion, causing networkd to fail, e.g.:
Assertion 'client->event' failed at src/libsystemd-network/sd-dhcp-client.c:1283, function client_start_delayed(). Ignoring.
