When setting IPv6 addresses acquired by DHCPv6, systemd-networkd sets
the IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE flag in the IFA_FLAGS netlink attribute. As
the flag and the attribute are present starting with Linux 3.14, older
kernels will need systemd-network to manage prefix route expiry.
By default, DHCPv6 addresses are first assigned setting the
IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE flag in the IFA_FLAGS netlink attribute. Should
the address assignment fail, the same assignment is tried without
the IFA_FLAGS attribute. Should also the second attempt fail, an error
is printed and address assignment ends with failure. As successful use
of the IFA_FLAGS netlink attribute is recorded in the Link structure,
the DHCPv6 code will know if the kernel or systemd-network fallback
code handles expiring prefixes.
The prefix expiration and IPv6 address updating fallback code is
resurrected from the parts deleted with commit
47d45d3cde.
This patch can be removed once the minimum kernel requirements are
greater than or equal to 3.14.
This patch add support to create vti6 tunnel
test:
vt6.network
[Match]
Name=wlan0
[Network]
Tunnel=ip6vti
vti6.netdev
[NetDev]
Name=ip6vti
Kind=vti6
[Tunnel]
Local=2a00:ffde:4567:edde::4987
Remote=2001:473:fece:cafe::5179
ip link
11: ip6_vti0@NONE: <NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT
group default
link/tunnel6 :: brd ::
12: ip6vti@wlan0: <POINTOPOINT,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN
mode DEFAULT group default
link/tunnel6 2a00:ffde:4567:edde::4987 peer 2001:473:fece:cafe::5179
This should simplify the prototype a bit. The bus parameter is redundant
in most cases, and in the few where it matters it can be derived from
the message via sd_bus_message_get_bus().
This makes adds a couple of fixes:
- Introduces log_netdev_error_errno() and friends, which takes an error
number, and matches what log_link_error_errno() and friends do.
- Replaces a lof ot strerror() usage with log_netdev_error_errno(),
log_link_error_errno() and log_erro_errno()
- Uppercases the first character of many log messages, after all this is
supposed to be english language
- Drops manual negating of error codes before passing them to log
functions, the log functions all do that internally anyway.
Some other minor fixes.
Behaviour should not change really.
Add UDPCheckSum option to enable transmitting UDP checksums when doing
VXLAN/IPv4. Add UDP6ZeroChecksumRx, and UDP6ZeroChecksumTx
options to enable sending zero checksums and receiving zero
checksums in VXLAN/IPv6

Expiring prefixes need not be handled anymore as the kernel has been
instructed not to create routes for DHCPv6 assigned addresses via the
IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE flag.
The IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE flag prevents the kernel from creating new onlink
prefixes when a DHCPv6 IPv6 address with a prefix length is set from user
space. IPv6 routing will follow the onlink status from Router Advertisment
Prefix Information options or any manually set route, which is the correct
thing to do.
As this flag has a larger value than what fits into an unsigned char, update
the flag attribute to an uint32_t and set it with an IFA_FLAGS attribute
when writing netlink messages to the kernel.
The input data would have to be borked, so this is unlikely to happen,
but since we have a nice helper function to do it properly... why not?
CID #1261390.
The crucial point here is that we will not change the settings of a netdev created by someone else
we simply use it as is and trust it was set up as intended.
This is confusing in the case of the pre-created netdev's (bond0 etc.), the solution should probably
be to simply make the kernel stop creating these devices as they are pretty useless.
Introduce BindCarrier= to indicate the set of links that determine if
the current link should be brought UP or DOWN.

Subject: [PATCH] networkd dhcpv4 logging endian fix
On a big-endian host, systemd-networkd prints out IPv4 network
addresses byte reversed:
Feb 10 16:43:32 hostname systemd-networkd[151]: eth0 : DHCPv4 address 158.1.24.10/16 via 1.1.24.10
The address obtained is 10.24.1.158/16 and the route is
10.24.0.0/16 dev eth0 src 10.24.1.187
The macro ADDRESS_FMT_VAL() unpacks a "struct in_addr" in a
little-endian specific manner.
This patch forces the passed address into host order, then unpacks it.
On an x86 later than i486, compiled with -O2, the only extra overhead
is a single bswap instruction.
Pass around Link objcets rather than FdbEntry objects. The link objects have an up-to-date
ifname we can use for logging. match_name sholud _never_ be used for anything except
matching. Firstly, it may be unset (usually is), and secondly it may not be up-to-date.
For now we only support the hardcoded values RT_SCOPE_{UNIVERSE,LOCAL,HOST},
and not numerical values or values from /etc/iproute2/rt_scopes.
This addresses https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88508.
This allows the admin to set the host-specific part of IPv6 addresses, but still
receive the prefix via SLAAC.
.network file snippet:
[Network]
IPv6Token=::12
gives:
$ ip token
token ::12 dev eth0
This closes https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81177.
This allows both IPv4 and IPv6 link-local addresses to be enabled or disabled. By default
we still enable IPv6LL and disable IPv4LL. The old config option is kept for backwards
compatibility, but removed from the documentation.
Object path components must start with [A-Za-z_] (AFAIK).
Also the value of 'p' is undefined if asprintf fails.
Compare to user_bus_path() in src/login/logind-user-dbus.c:281.
We will be woken up on rtnl or dbus activity, so let's just quit if some time has passed and that is the only thing that can happen.
Note that we will always stay around if we expect network activity (e.g. DHCP is enabled), as we are not restarted on that.
Only the very basics, more to come.
For now:
