Beniamino Galvani 218782a9a3 n-dhcp4: restart the transaction after a NAK
It is not enough to set the INIT state after a NAK; a timeout
(ns_deferred) must be set so that it is added to the event fd. The
client retries immediately the first time, so that in the successful
case it gets an address quickly. To avoid flooding the network in case
of servers always replying with NAKs, next attempts are done with
intervals from 2 seconds to 5 minutes using exponential backoff. See
also systemd commit [1].

n-dhcp4

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv4

The n-dhcp4 project implements the IPv4 Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol as defined in RFC-2132+.

Project

Requirements

The requirements for this project are:

  • Linux kernel >= 3.19
  • libc (e.g., glibc >= 2.16)

At build-time, the following software is required:

  • meson >= 0.41
  • pkg-config >= 0.29

Build

The meson build-system is used for this project. Contact upstream documentation for detailed help. In most situations the following commands are sufficient to build and install from source:

mkdir build
cd build
meson setup ..
ninja
meson test
ninja install

No custom configuration options are available.
