If commit_mtu() is called multiple times and dev->get_configured_mtu()
returns @is_user_config=FALSE, only the first call changes the
MTU. So, for example, when the parent MTU of a VLAN changes, we apply
the new MTU only the first time.
Rework the handling of MTU in NMDevice, and store the source of the
configured MTU. When commit_mtu() is called again, we ask the subclass
a MTU to configure and apply it only if the source has higher
priority, or when the parent MTU changed.
Instead of returning a boolean @is_user_config value from
get_configured_mtu(), return an mtu-source enum with possible values
NONE,CONNECTION. This enum will be expanded later; for now there is no
change in behavior.
If a device-factory wouldn't support any link-type or setting-type,
we would not take an additional reference to the @factory instance
(because, the factory is not added to one of the static hash tables).
As such, we would invoke the callback with a factory instance, which
is about to be destroyed immediately afterwards. That would be unusual
for device-plugins, because usually a device-plugin is never destroyed
and essentially leaked at exit.
Just don't get into that situation. All device plugins are internal API,
and they are known to support at least something. Assert for that.
Internal device plugins are compiled-in. In fact, none of the
internal device plugins can currently be disabled via compile
time options. The user would have to patch the sources to
not include a particular device plugin.
Hence, the available device plugins depends exclusively on the
build itself. That is not worth <info> level logging. Especially,
as it was quite verbose, logging 13 lines.
Otherwise, we easily get a failure
test:ERROR:src/platform/tests/test-cleanup.c:78:test_cleanup_internal: assertion failed (addresses6->len == 2): (1 == 2)
Avoid that by waiting for kernel to add the link-local
address.
Option to check just in NM private dhcp client specific lease files has
been dropped: either get DUID from specific DHCP plugin or just use the
provided one.
This reverts commit f054c3fcaa.
It's useless and redundant noise.
The original motivation seems to have been compatibility with ancient
versions uClibc (2011), but given CLOCK_BOOTTIME definition is shipped with
kernel headers, the libc version shall not matter anyway.
Even if it was the case, uClibc has shipped the definition for over
7 years now and been superseded by uClibc-ng that always had the
definition.
_LOGD() is preferred, because it includes a common prefix depending
on the device. This macro requires, that we have a suitable @self
variable in the local scope.
This is to support the S5 case, where usually the NM process is
stopped. If we are stopping and WoWLAN is set for the interface,
we do not deconfigure it and keep the connection alive so we
can receive packages that will potentially wake up the system.
Note that for this work, wpa_supplicant needs to be modified too
so it does not deconfigure the wireless interface either when
stopped. The needed patches for wpa_supplicant can be found in
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/hostap/2018-June/038644.html
Rather trivial change. Return-early, to completely handle the simpler
case (the success case) first. In the failure case, we only need
extra effort to generate a nice error message.
It is safer to enable send-sci by default because, at the cost of
8-byte overhead, it makes MACsec work over bridges (note that kernel
also enables it by default). While at it, also make the option
configurable.

We set the metric to the routes as we receive them from the PPP plugin. We
ought to let the modem know before it starts IPv4 configuration, not right
before the commit.

For better or worse, the logging done for ipv4.dhcp-client-id
is prefixed with ipv4.dhcp-client-id. Let ipv6.dhcp-duid follow
that pattern.
Also, generate_duid_from_machine_id() would log at two places,
it should use the same logging prefix.
Also, it logs the value of "duid" variable. Ensure, that "duid"
is not %NULL at that point.
Also, fix leak of nm_dhcp_utils_duid_to_string() value during logging.
Previously, there were two blocks
if (NM_IN_SET (duid, "ll", "llt")
preprocess_hwaddr()
else if (NM_IN_SET (duid, "stable-ll", "stable-llt", "stable-uuid"))
preprecess_stable_id()
if (nm_streq (duid, "ll")
generate_ll()
else if (nm_streq (duid, "llt"))
generate_llt()
else if (nm_streq (duid, "stable-ll")
generate_stable_ll()
...
That is, the latter block depends on the execution of the previous
block, while the previous block is guarded by a particular condition,
slighlty different than the condition in the later block.
It is confusing to follow. Instead, check for our cases one by one, and
when we determined a particular DUID type, process it within the same block
of code. Now the code consists of individual blocks, that all end with a "goto
out*". That means, it's easier to understand the flow of the code.
Also, don't initialize duid_error variable and separate between
"out_error" and "out_good". This allows that the compiler gives
a warning if we missed ot initialize duid_error.
dhcp6_get_duid() already handles failure to generate the DUID in a
sensible manner. No reason to duplicate the error handling in
generate_duid_from_machine_id().
Especially, because generate_duid_from_machine_id() used to cache the
random DUID in memory and reuse it from then on. There is no reason to do
that, /etc/machine-id must be available to NetworkManager. We still
handle such a grave error gracefully by generating a random DUID.
First of all, generating the client-id is not expected to fail. If it fails,
something is already very wrong. Maybe, a failure to generate a client-id
should result in failing the activation. However, let's not go full
measure in this question.
Instead:
- ensure that we log a warning and a reason why the client-id could not
be generated.
- fallback to a random client id. Clearly, we were unable to generate
the requested client-id, hence, we should fallback to a default value
which does not make the host easily identifyable. Of course, that means
that the generated DHCP client-id is not at all stable. But note that
something is already very wrong, so when handling the error we should do
something conservative (that is, protecting the users privacy).
This is also what happens for a failure to generate the ipv6.dhcp-duid.
In practice, there should be no difference between peeking into
the platform cache, or using the cached value from nm_device_get_hw_address().
Prefer the hardware address from the platform, because:
- we also pass the current MAC address to nm_dhcp_manager_start_ip4().
For not particularly strong reason, it uses the MAC address obtained
from platform. At the least, it makes sense that we use the same
addresses for the client-id as well.
- ipv6.dhcp-duid also gets the address from platform. Again,
no strong reason either way, but they should behave similar
in this regard.
They're intended to be used via update-alternatives(8) as compatibility
shims for Red Hat systems without the legacy network control scripts.
While they're not strictly parts of the settings plugin, they're best
just installed along with it, since they're supposed to be available on
systems that use the ifcfg files.
This allows implementing some convenience features in nmcli -- listing
the backing store for the connection in "nmcli c show", and using the
filename for specifying connection in "nmcli c up/down".
Eventually, paired with ReloadConnections(), this could be used to
implement something similar to what "systemctl edit" does for units
(though we'd need to pick another command name as we aready use
"nmcli c edit" for something different).
When the used client is dhclient we were used to search for DUID not
only in the specific lease files generated by NetworkManager, but also
in the global lease file generated outside NetworkManager.
Keep this capability but allow to just search in the NM lease files if
a value different from the default one is specified in dhcp-duid.
This commit centralizes the DUID generation in nm-device.c.
As a consequence, a DUID is always provided when starting a
DHCPv6 client. The DHCP client can override the passed DUID
with the value contained in the client-specific lease file.
allow to specify the DUID to be used int the DHCPv6 client identifier
option: the dhcp-duid property accepts either a hex string or the
special values "lease", "llt", "ll", "stable-llt", "stable-ll" and
"stable-uuid".
"lease": give priority to the DUID available in the lease file if any,
otherwise fallback to a global default dependant on the dhcp
client used. This is the default and reflects how the DUID
was managed previously.
"ll": enforce generation and use of LL type DUID based on the current
hardware address.
"llt": enforce generation and use of LLT type DUID based on the current
hardware address and a stable time field.
"stable-ll": enforce generation and use of LL type DUID based on a
link layer address derived from the stable id.
"stable-llt": enforce generation and use of LLT type DUID based on
a link layer address and a timestamp both derived from the
stable id.
"stable-uuid": enforce generation and use of a UUID type DUID based on a
uuid generated from the stable id.
