So far we only reported major state transitions like failure to acquire
the message. Let's report the initial failure after a few timeouts in
a new event type.
The number of timeouts is hardcoded as 3, since Windows seems to be using
that. I don't think we need to make this configurable out of the box. A
reasonable default may be enough.
With these patches applied, networkd is successfully able to get an
address from a DHCP server on an IPoIB interface.
1)
Makes networkd pass the actual interface type to the dhcp client,
instead of hardcoding it to Ethernet.
2)
Fixes some issues in handling the larger (20 Byte) IB MAC addresses in
the dhcp code.
3)
Add a new field to networkds Link struct, which holds the interface
broadcast address.
3.1)
Modify the DHCP code to also expect the broadcast address as parameter.
On an Ethernet-Interface the Broadcast address never changes and is always
all 6 bytes set to 0xFF.
On an IB one however it is not neccesarily always the same, thus
fetching the actual address from the interface is neccesary.
4)
Only the last 8 bytes of an IB MAC are stable, so when using an IB MAC to
generate a client ID, only pass those 8 bytes.
When specifying `DHCPv4.SendOption=`, it is used by systemd-networkd to
set the value of that option within the DHCP request that is sent out.
This differs to setting `DHCPServer.SendOption=`, which will place all
the options together as suboptions into the vendor-specific information
(code 43) option.
This commit adds two new config options, `DHCPv4.SendVendorOption=` and
`DHCPServer.SendVendorOption=`. These both have the behaviour of the old
`DHCPServer.SendOption=` flag, and set the value of the suboption in the
vendor-specific information option.
The behaviour of `DHCPServer.SendOption=` is then changed to reflect
that of `DHCPv4.SendOption=`. It will set the value of the corresponding
option in the DHCP request.
IPServiceType set to CS6 (network control) causes problems on some old
network setups that continue to interpret the field as IP TOS.
Make DHCP work on such networks by allowing this field to be set to
CS4 (Realtime) instead, as this maps to IPTOS_LOWDELAY.

An earlier commit 0e408b82b (dhcp6-client: handle IAID with value zero)
introduced a flag to sd_dhcp6_client to distinguish between an unset
IAID and a value set to zero.
However, that was not sufficient and broke leaving the setting
uninitialized in networkd configuration. The configuration parsing
also must distinguish between the default, unset value and an
explict zero configuration.

This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:

The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per

Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
This patch add support to enables to send User Class option code 77
RFC 3004.
This option MAY carry multiple User Classes.
The format of this option is as follows:
Code Len Value
+-----+-----+--------------------- . . . --+
| 77 | N | User Class Data ('Len' octets) |
+-----+-----+--------------------- . . . --+
where Value consists of one or more instances of User Class Data.
Each instance of User Class Data is formatted as follows:
UC_Len_i User_Class_Data_i
+--------+------------------------ . . . --+
| L_i | Opaque-Data ('UC_Len_i' octets) |
+--------+------------------------ . . . --+
UserClass=
A DHCPv4 client can use UserClass option to identify the type or category of user or applications
it represents. The information contained in this option is an string that represents the user class
of which the client is a member. Each class sets an identifying string of information to be used by the DHCP service to classify clients. Takes a whitespace-separated list.
UserClass= hello world how are you
Closes: RFC: #5134
This makes users can configure DHCPv4 client with ClientIdentifier=duid-only.
If set so, then DHCP client sends only DUID as the client identifier.
This may not be RFC compliant, but some setups require this.
Closes#7828.
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.
A field "index" is not particularly precise and also might conflict with libc's
index() function definition. Also, pretty much everywhere else we call this
concept "ifindex", including in networkd, the primary user of these libraries.
Hence, let's fix this up and call this "ifindex" everywhere here too.
libsystemd-network provides the public function
sd_dhcp_client_set_request_option() to enable the request of a given
DHCP option. However the enum defining such options is defined in the
internal header dhcp-protocol.h. Move the enum definition to the
public header sd-dhcp-client.h and properly namespace values.
GLIB has recently started to officially support the gcc cleanup
attribute in its public API, hence let's do the same for our APIs.
With this patch we'll define an xyz_unrefp() call for each public
xyz_unref() call, to make it easy to use inside a
__attribute__((cleanup())) expression. Then, all code is ported over to
make use of this.
The new calls are also documented in the man pages, with examples how to
use them (well, I only added docs where the _unref() call itself already
had docs, and the examples, only cover sd_bus_unrefp() and
sd_event_unrefp()).
This also renames sd_lldp_free() to sd_lldp_unref(), since that's how we
tend to call our destructors these days.
Note that this defines no public macro that wraps gcc's attribute and
makes it easier to use. While I think it's our duty in the library to
make our stuff easy to use, I figure it's not our duty to make gcc's own
features easy to use on its own. Most likely, client code which wants to
make use of this should define its own:
#define _cleanup_(function) __attribute__((cleanup(function)))
Or similar, to make the gcc feature easier to use.
Making this logic public has the benefit that we can remove three header
files whose only purpose was to define these functions internally.
See #2008.
Exported header files should not include internal headers. Fix that.
Exported header files should not use the bool type. So far we opted to
stick to C89 for exported headers, and hence use "int" for bools in
them. Continue to do so.
Exported header files should have #include lines for everything they use
including inttypes.h and sys/types.h, so that they may be included in
any order.
Exported header files should have C++ guards, hence add them.
Exported header files should not use gcc extensions like #pragma once,
get rid of it.
The client identifier can be in many different formats, not just
the one that systemd creates from the Ethernet MAC address. Non-
ethernet interfaces may have different client IDs formats. Users
may also have custom client IDs that the wish to use to preserve
lease options delivered by servers configured with the existing
client ID.
Like Infiniband. See RFC 4390 section 2.1 for details on DHCP
and Infiniband; chaddr is zeroed, hlen is set to 0, and htype
is set to ARPHRD_INFINIBAND because IB hardware addresses
are 20 bytes in length.
It appears there is no good way to decide whether or not broadcasts should be enabled,
there is hardware that must have broadcast, and there are networks that only allow
unicast. So we give up and make this configurable.
By default, unicast is used, but if the kernel were to inform us abotu certain
interfaces requiring broadcast, we could change this to opt-in by default in
those cases.
