If "keep" policy is specified, and the interface has a name that is
NET_NAME_USER or NET_NAME_RENAMED, we stop processing rules. "keep" should
probably be specified either first or last depending on the preference.
This partially reimplements 55b6530baa, in the
sense that if the "keep" policy is not specified, and if the interface has
a NamingPolicy, it will be renamed, even if it had a name previously.
So this breaks backwards compatibility in this case, but that's more in line
with what users expect.
Closes#9006.
The "features" fields is parsed as a tristate value. The values
are thus not of type NetDevFeature enum but int. The NetDevFeature
enum is instead the index for the features array.
Adjust the type. In practice, this had no impact because NetDevFeature
enum commonly has size of int.
Also, don't use memset() 0xFF to initilize the int with -1. While
it works correctly in practice, it feels ugly.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
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 cleans up handling of MTU values across the codebase. Previously
MTU values where stored sometimes in uint32_t, sometimes in uint16_t,
sometimes unsigned and sometimes in size_t. This now unifies this to
uint32_t across the codebase, as that's what netlink spits out, and what
the majority was already using.
Also, all MTU parameters are now parsed with config_parse_mtu() and
config_parse_ipv6_mtu() is dropped as it is now unneeded.
(Note there is one exception for the MTU typing: in the DCHPv4 code we
continue to process the MTU as uint16_t value, as it is encoded like
that in the protocol, and it's probably better stay close to the
protocol there.)
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
This adds a simple condition/assert/match to the service manager, to
udev's .link handling and to networkd, for matching the kernel version
string.
In this version we only do fnmatch() based globbing, but we might want
to extend that to version comparisons later on, if we like, by slightly
extending the syntax with ">=", "<=", ">", "<" and "==" expressions.
This work allows to configure device port:
tp — An Ethernet interface using Twisted-Pair cable as the medium.
aui — Attachment Unit Interface (AUI). Normally used with hubs.
bnc — An Ethernet interface using BNC connectors and co-axial cable.
mii — An Ethernet interface using a Media Independent Interface (MII).
fibre — An Ethernet interface using Optical Fibre as the medium.
gperf-3.1 generates lookup functions that take a size_t length
parameter instead of unsigned int. Test for this at configure time.

Link: port to new ethtool ETHTOOL_xLINKSETTINGS
This patch defines a new ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS/SLINKSETTINGS API,
handled by the new get_link_ksettings/set_link_ksettings .
This is a WIP version based on this [kernel
patch](https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/8411401/).

Usually, we place the #pragma once before the copyright blurb in header files,
but in a few cases we didn't. Move those around, so that we do the same thing
everywhere.
There are more than enough calls doing string manipulations to deserve
its own files, hence do something about it.
This patch also sorts the #include blocks of all files that needed to be
updated, according to the sorting suggestions from CODING_STYLE. Since
pretty much every file needs our string manipulation functions this
effectively means that most files have sorted #include blocks now.
Also touches a few unrelated include files.
While it is currently possible to either not set MACAddressPolicy or set
it to a value different from "persistent" or "random", it is not obvious
that a user can do so. Add a policy, "none", which simply retains kernel
MAC addresses (same as not filling in the policy at all) and document it
so that users are aware of this setting.

The parser used for MTU and Speed expects them to be size_t, not unsigned int.
This caused a corruption in the rest of the structure.
Reported by David O Neill <david.m.oneill@intel.com>.
This patch removes includes that are not used. The removals were found with
include-what-you-use which checks if any of the symbols from a header is
in use.
This has been requested repeatedly, so let's give it a go. We explicitly do not allow matching
on names that have already been changed (from a previous udev run, or otherwise), and matching
on unpredictable names (ethX) is discouraged (but not currently disallowed).
We also currently allow:
[Match]
Name=veth0
[Link]
Name=my-name0
SomeOtherSetting=true
Which means that the link file will be applied the first time it is invoked, but
not on subsequent invocations, which may be surprising.
Newer kernels export meta-information about the origin of an ifname. Respect this
from the ifname rename logic. We do not rename any interfaces that was originally
named by userspace, nor once which have already been renamed from userspace.
Moreover, we optionally do not (the default) rename interfaces which the kernel
claims to have named in a predictable way.
Pass on the line on which a section was decleared to the parsers, so they
can distinguish between multiple sections (if they chose to). Currently
no parsers take advantage of this, but a follow-up patch will do that
to distinguish
[Address]
Address=192.168.0.1/24
Label=one
[Address]
Address=192.168.0.2/24
Label=two
from
[Address]
Address=192.168.0.1/24
Label=one
Address=192.168.0.2/24
Label=two
Use Description only internally, and allow Alias to be set
as a separate option. For instance SNMP uses ifalias for
a specific purpose, so let's not write to it by default.
This introduces a new key MACAddressPolicy.
The possible policies are 'persistent' and 'random'.
'persistent' will do nothing if the current address is the hardware address,
but if the hardware does not have an address (or another address is set for
whatever reason), we will generate an address which will be random, but
persistent between boots (based on machineid and persistent netif name).
'random' will do nothing if the kernel already set a random address, otherwise
it will generate a random one and use that instead.
This patch sets MACAddressPolicy=persistent in the default .link file.
This introduces a new key NamePolicy, which takes an ordered list of naming
policies. The first successful one is applide. If all fail the value of Name
(if any) is used.
The possible policies are 'onboard', 'slot', 'path' and 'mac'.
This patch introduces a default link file, which replaces the equivalent udev
rule.
