ifup-routes: Use `ip route repace` to avoid race

2022-01-12T13:40:37+00:00

This should resolve the scenario when the link is brought
up prior to disabling accept_ra.

This only happens when both IPv4 and IPv6 address is on
the interface, because network-scripts does IPv4 first
and brings up the interface.

Then it does IPv6 which disables the RA's, at that point
the node has already learned the route from RA and setting
a default route fails.

Using `ip route replace` we ensure if the above scenario
happens we end-up with the correct default ipv6 route.

Huge thanks to Harald who debugged this issue and prepared a patch!

network scripts: Avoid infinite loop of arping

2021-02-15T14:48:14+00:00

Introduced in the bonding driver (commit ae46f184bc1f) Driver now reports transmission failures.
Before that, it silently dropped the packet and replied with success error code.

The arping of iputils retries endlessly when a transmission error occurs.

This patch fix this behavior.

network: add option to keep the link down

2020-12-15T09:07:50+00:00

Some interfaces like Open vSwitch bridges using the userspace datapath,
needs the link to be kept down to avoid issues.
Add a LINKSTATUS=[down|up] ifcfg parameter to add this functionality.
If not specified, the link will default to up as before.

Add optional 'dev' keyword

2020-07-24T11:46:14+00:00

Fix the problem when the device name could be interpreted as an iproute2 keyword.
For example, for a bridge slave named "a" the iproute2 would treat
the name as a prefix of keyword "address" and the network-scripts
would fail to set the bridge master.

Wait for scope link addresses as well as for scope global addresses

2020-04-14T14:28:56+00:00

Fix issue when interface has assigned only local address in tentative
state and DHCPv6 isn't able to assign address to that interface.
With this patch network-scripts will wait until tentative state is gone (wait for DAD)
for all scopes including local one.
