Also some general cleanups
|
|
This should improve performance on busy wireless networks and the
like. Inspired by a similar change in dnsmasq.
|
|
UDP sockets can anyway not be bound to specific netdev's. The packages would have to be filtered
when received instead.
|
|
Try a bit harder to make the kernel drop packets not for us. This should reduce
the number of wakeups from n^2 to n in the number of dhcp clients, which admittedly
only makes a differenc in very extreme cases.
|
|
If they are too small to fit the IP+UDP+DHCP headers they can be of no use, so
don't waste resources parsing them. This is at the cost of losing some verbosity
in the logging.

Filter out everything except UDP packets destined for the DHCP client port,
this should avoid the vast majority of spurious wakeups.
Filter based on [0], with permission.
Possible improvemnts: also check for the DHCP magic cookie to drop invalid
packets. Check for our xid to filter out packets destined for other clients.

Passing the protocol to socket() is redundant as it will be specified again in
bind(). Dropping the redundancy reduces the cost of bind() from ~30ms to ~0ms.
For details see [0].
networkd in a container (i.e., with next to no network latency) can now
negotiate a DHCP lease in 0.7 - 5 ms.
Thanks to Kay for help with debugging and to Daniel Borkmann for the pointer
to fix the problem.

safe_close() automatically becomes a NOP when a negative fd is passed,
and returns -1 unconditionally. This makes it easy to write lines like
this:
fd = safe_close(fd);
Which will close an fd if it is open, and reset the fd variable
correctly.
By making use of this new scheme we can drop a > 200 lines of code that
was required to test for non-negative fds or to reset the closed fd
variable afterwards.

This is similar to sd-login, but exposes the state of networkd rather than logind.
Include it in libsystemd-dhcp and rename it to libsystemd-network.
