We currently process every ARP packet, but we should only care about the ones
relating to our IP address.
Also rename ipv4ll helpers to apr-utils.[ch], and rework the helpers a bit.
Introduce a proper enum, and don't pass around string ids anymore. This
simplifies things quite a bit, and makes virtualization detection more
similar to architecture detection.
Merge sd_dhcp_server_set_address() and sd_dhcp_server_set_lease_pool() into
sd_dhcp_server_configure_pool() as the behavior of the two former depends
on the order they are called in. The flexibility is not needed, so let's
just do this in one call.
Rather than having all clients attempt to get the same leases (starting at the
beginning of the pool), make each client star at a random offset into the pool
determined by their client id. This greatly increases the chances of a given
client receiving the same IP address even though both the client and server
have lost any lease information (and distinct server instances handing out
the same leases).
a) drop handling of obsolete or unused DHCP options time_offset,
mtu_aging_timeout, policy filter, mdr, ttl, ip forwarding settings.
Should this become useful one day we can readd support for this.
b) For subnet mask and broadcast it is not always clear whether 0 or
255.255.255.255 might be valid, hence maintain a boolean indicating
validity next to it.
c) serialize/deserialize broadcast address, lifetime, T1 and T2 together
with the rest of the fields in dhcp_lease_save() and
dhcp_lease_load().
d) consistently return ENODATA from getter functions for data that is
missing in the lease.
e) add missing getter calls for broadcast, lifetime, T1, T2.
f) when decoding DHCP options, generate debug messages on parse
failures, but try to proceed if possible.
g) Similar, when deserializing a lease in dhcp_lease_load(), make sure
we deal nicely with unparsable fields, to provide upgrade compat.
h) fix some memory allocations
When we make sd-dhcp public one day we really should not make
sd_dhcp_lease_save() and sd_dhcp_lease_load() public, since it's pretty
much only useful as internal utility for networkd itself.
Previoulsy, we just checked whether the domain names specified in
incoming DHCP leases are valid. Given that validation code actually
internally normalizes anyway, it's a good idea to simply do the full
normalization and store that in the lease structure. This allows us to
remove the manual removal of a trailing dot, if there is one.
strv_extend() does not consume the passed entry, hence, we must properly
free it. Furthermore, we should *not* use strv_consume() as we do greedy
allocations on 'ret'; and greedy-allocations should only be used for short
lived objects or caches.
Fix the domainname parser to properly free temporary storage when done.
In our API design, getter-functions don't ref objects. Calls like
foo_get_bar() will not ref 'bar'. We never do that and there is no real
reason to do it in single threaded APIs. If you need a ref-count, you
better take it yourself *BEFORE* doing anything else on the parent object
(as this might invalidate your pointer).
Right now, sd_dhcp?_get_lease() refs the lease it returns. A lot of
code-paths in systemd do not expect this and thus leak the lease
reference. Fix this by changing the API to not ref returned objects.
Test option setting and getting in test_advertise_option(). Verify
that the information provided in DHCPv6 Reply messages is also
available in the Information and Solicit callbacks.
Although the SNTP option specified in RFC 4075 has been deprecated, some
servers are still sending NTP information with this option. Use the SNTP
information provided only if the NTP option is not present.
Update the test case as SNTP information is also requested.
Support DHCPv6 DNS search list option as specified in RFC 3646. This
option contains a list of DNS search domains encoded without compression
as specified in Section 8. of RFC 3315.
Add a helper function containing a modified version of dns_packet_read_name()
that does not use DnsPacket to extract a string array of domain names from
the provided option data. The domain names are stored uncompressed as defined
in Section 8. of RFC 3315.
When the DHCPv6 client is started by the library user or stopped for
any reason, unref the DHCPv6 lease when resetting the DHCPv6 client
data structure. This makes the DHCPv6 client always start from a clean
state and not keep unnecessary an lease structure around when stopped.
If this is not done, a previously existing lease information can be
interpreted to be from another server when restarting DHCPv6.
Tests are modified to check behaviour with relax and without relax.
New tests are added for hostname_cleanup().
Tests are moved a new file (test-hostname-util) because there's
now a bunch of them.
New parameter is not used anywhere, except in tests, so there should
be no observable change.
