In the long run this should become a full fledged client to networkd
(but not before networkd learns bus support). For now, just pull
interesting data out of networkd, udev, and rtnl and present it to the
user, in a simple but useful output.
|
|
All routes added by networkd are currently set RTPROT_BOOT, which according
to the kernel means "Route installed during boot" (rtnetlink.h). But this
is not always the case as networkd changes routing after boot too. Since
the kernel gives more detailed protocols, use them.
With this patch, user-configured static routes now use RTPROT_STATIC (which
they are) and DHCP routes use RTPROT_DHCP. There is no define for IPv4LL
yet, so those are installed as RTPROT_STATIC (though perhaps RTPROT_RA is
better?).

Let's settle on a single type for all address family values, even if
UNIX is very inconsitent on the precise type otherwise. Given that
socket() is the primary entrypoint for the sockets API, and that uses
"int", and "int" is relatively simple and generic, we settle on "int"
for this.

Reuse the auth-checking for both the peek and the real read.

No functional change.

We were not properly clearing the padding at the front of some containers.

when processing multi-part message
|
|
|
|
|
|
If nothing interesting was receieved we should not put anything on
the queue.
|
|
Also, don't actually read any of the message when peeking, just get its length.
|
|
|
|
Rather than allocating/freeing memory for each message read, keep a global read buffer
in the rtnl object. Also, rather than using a fixed size, peek at the pending message
header to get the message size and reallocate as necessary.

messages
This means the API can stay the same as for single-part messages by simply passing the head message around. Unrefing
the head of the linked list unrefs the whole list.
|
|
|
|
This unifies the socket handling with other sd-* libraries.
|
|
We still only return the first message part in callback/synchronous calls.

Currently when both ipv4ll and dhcp are enabled, ipv4ll
address (if one has been claimed) is removed when dhcp
address is aquired. This is not the best thing to do
since there might be clients unaware of the removal
trying to communicate.
This patch provides a smooth transition between ipv4ll
and dhcp. If ipv4ll address was claimed [1] before dhcp,
address is marked as deprecated. Deprecated address is still
a valid address and packets can be received on it but address
cannot be selected as a source address. If dhcp lease cannot
be extended, then ipv4ll address is marked as valid again.
[1] If there is no collision, claiming IPv4LL takes between 4 to
7 seconds.

Also fix type parameter passed to new0

We will easily get these when running on newer kernels. However, we can safely ignore them as we
anyway don't know what to do with them.
|
|
Use a static table with all the typing information, rather than repeated
switch statements. This should make it a lot simpler to add new types.
We need to keep all the type info to be able to create containers
without exposing their implementation details to the users of the library.
As a freebee we verify the types of appended/read attributes.
The API is extended to nicely deal with unions of container types.
|
|
|
|
The object is not currently used, so just drop the refenence. If/when we end up
using the object in the future, we must make sure to deal with possible mutual
references between rtnl busses and their queued messages; as is done in sd-bus.

Added support for tunneling netlink attrributes (ipip, gre, sit).
These works with kernel module ipip, gre and sit . The test cases are
moved to a separate file and manual test as well because they require
respective kernel modules as well.
|
|
Currently we only support containers in RTM_*LINK messages.

Extend rta_offset_tb into a stack of offset tables, one for each parent of the
current container, and make sd_rtnl_message_{enter,exit}_container() pop/push
to this stack.
Also make sd_rtnl_message_rewind() parse the top-level container, and use this
when reading a message from the socket.
This changes the API by dropping the now redundant sd_rtnl_message_read()
method.
|
|
Make sure the returned data fits the datatype we requested. Otherwise return -EIO.
Also fix a broken test that this exposed.
|
|
If a message type occurs repeatedly let the last one win.
Also, don't skip type == MAX.
Based on patch from: Susant Sahani <susant@redhat.com>

Otherwise the sequence number of a broadcast may match the sequence number of a
pending unicast message and cause confusion.
|
|
Use RTM_SETLINK to update an existing link.

This patch introduces reading ethernet address and IPV4/IPv6
as well which is based on table based look up.
[tomegun: rename read_ether() to read_ether_addr() to match the append function.]
|
|
This patch introduces new netlink attribute parsing logic
which is table based lookup and sd_rtnl_message_read_*
methods for reading attributes. By doing this user does not
have to loop for the attribute values . Only providing the
attribute type it gets the attribute values which is optimized
and sd_rtnl_message_read_* methods are simplified.
|
|
We need a separate container_enter() function, which will be part of a largerg
API change. For now, just fix message_read().

Implements IPv4LL with respect to RFC 3927
(http://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3927.txt) and integrates it
with networkd. Majority of the IPv4LL state machine is
taken from avahi (http://avahi.org/) project's autoip.
IPv4LL can be enabled by IPv4LL=yes under [Network]
section of .network file.
IPv4LL works independent of DHCP but if DHCP lease is
aquired, then LL address will be dropped.
[tomegun: removed a trailing newline and a compiler warning]

first (or second)
Previously the returned object of constructor functions where sometimes
returned as last, sometimes as first and sometimes as second parameter.
Let's clean this up a bit. Here are the new rules:
1. The object the new object is derived from is put first, if there is any
2. The object we are creating will be returned in the next arguments
3. This is followed by any additional arguments
Rationale:
For functions that operate on an object we always put that object first.
Constructors should probably not be too different in this regard. Also,
if the additional parameters might want to use varargs which suggests to
put them last.
Note that this new scheme only applies to constructor functions, not to
all other functions. We do give a lot of freedom for those.
Note that this commit only changes the order of the new functions we
added, for old ones we accept the wrong order and leave it like that.

These were added to the kernel between 3.5 and 3.9, let's not require such
recent kernels (yet).
|
|
This mimics the sd-bus api, as we may need it in the future.
|
|
The kernel will then look up the ifindex itself based on the name.
This should be used very carefully as it is racey.
[This was a left-over hunk from my previous nspawn patch.]
|
|
|
|
We can always know the size based on the type, so let's do this inside the library.
