A previous commit made sure that when one of our own packets is looped
back to us, we ignore it. But let's go one step further, and refuse
operation if we notice the server we talk to is our own. This way we
won't generate unnecessary traffic and can return a cleaner error.
Fixes: #17413
Let's be more precise in naming this function, after all this doesn#t
actually check if the packet is really ours, but just that the source IP
address is a local one. Hence name it that way.
(This is preparation to add a helper that checks if packet belongs to
local transaction later on)
Let's add some overflow checks. Also, if 0 records are reserved, use
this as indication that a copy shall be done and do not grow the answer
beyond the current size.
Let's be a bit more helpful when refusing jobs on units that failed to
load properly. We already have explicit D-Bus errors for the error
conditions that are common and expected (such as "not found"), but for
the rest we so far generate a fairly cryptic message.
Let's try to be friendlier towards users and suggest what to do on such
errors.
Fixes: #16487
LLMNR/mDNS don't support DNSSEC, hence there's no point in routing any
lookups asking for DNSSEC there.
This speeds up looking up DNSSEC RRs for top-level domains, since we
don't have to wait for LLMNR to complete.
The flag is automatically set by kernel when the valid lifetime is
infinite. Note that the flag in netlink message for IPv4 address is
ignored. See set_ifa_lifetime() in kernel's net/ipv4/devinet.c.
But the flag is honored for IPv6 address. And if the flag is set with
finite valid lifetime, the address will not removed automatically by
the kernel.
If an address is assigned with IFA_F_MANAGETEMPADDR, then the flag must
be also set on remove. Otherwise, temporary addresses will not be
removed. See also inet6_rtm_deladdr() in kernel's net/ipv6/addrconf.c.
Fixes#13218.
The helper checks if the UEFI firmware is hooked up to a TPM2 chip. This
is useful to know in trusted boot scenarios, in particular during early
boot in auto-enroll scenarios where we want to know whether TPM2 is
available or not, and the Linux drivers are not loaded yet, and where it
might or not be worth waiting for it.
The difference between sd_rtnl_message_new_addr() and
sd_rtnl_message_new_addr_update() is only whether NLM_F_REPLACE flag
will be set or not.
If an address is already assigned, then we need to set NLM_F_REPLACE
flag, otherwise, address_configure() will be fail.
This makes address_configure() judge whether we should use the flag or
not.
