* Implement a new IPADDRS array for v4 IPs - read full commit messageDarren 'Tadgy' Austin2021-02-272-67/+71
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit introduces the logic for a new IPADDRS array which will work in a similar way to the IPv6 IP6ADDRS array. The IPADDRS array can hold multiple IPv4 addresses with netmasks, which are used in preference to, but maintaining backwards compatibility with, the old IPADDR/NETMASK arrays. If IPADDRS is set for an interface, the IPs and netmasks configured in the array are set before an also configured IPADDR/NETMASK. This maintains backwards compatibility - users can continue to use the IPADDR/NETMASK and IPALIASES arrays to configure the interface and completely ignore IPADDRS, or keep their old rc.inet1.conf files, if they so wish. If the IPADDRS arrays contains multiple IPs, those IPs are all added to the interface regardles of whether any IP in IPADDRS is or is not set. These IPs will also be added to the interface just as with IPALIASES if DHCP/SLAAC is used to set the first IP. The IPALIASES IPs are also added to the interface to maintain backwards compatibility. IPa set in IPADDRS to be used as 'alias' interfaces, are NOT given the usual ethX:Y name, like the IPs listed in IPALIASES. To get an ethX:Y interface the iPALIASES array should be used; to have the IPs simply added to the interface the user should use the IPADDRS array with multiple (space separated) IPs and netmasks. Using IPALIASES along side IPADDRS is completly legal and maintains backwards compatibility - it would yield a mixture of IPs set with and without ethX:Y aliases. This changeset moves the IPv4 configuration to be on par with the new IPv6 configuration syntax, but maintains FULL backwards compatibility with the old style syntax. Additionally, handling of IP4ADDRS has been modified such that it matches the IPADDRS usage. That is, any IPs listed in IP6ADDRS are also added to the interface (just as IPADDRS and IPALIASES are added for v4) whether the interface is configured with DHCP/DHCP6/SLAAC or not. This is a change to the IP6ADDRS usage, but since this script hasn't been officially accepted, there is no backwards compatibility issues. Again, note that these changes DO NOT change previous behaviour or damage backwards compatability. New functionallity and semantics only change behaviour of non-released features, so there is no bother to the changes. netconfig will be modified to output the new IPADDRS syntax, just as it does for IP6ADDRS and both will allow multiple IPs to be specified at configuration time - this is an improvement on the current netconfig behaviour.

* Update comments regarding use of the hard coded dhcpcd -L command line option.current-20210227Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2020-08-171-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | The -L command line option was added to the dhcpcd call in the -current development cycle to assist ARM users with getting networking up and running. This addition was incorrect as rc.inet1 already has support to use or not use -L by setting DHCP_NOIPV4LL[x]="". When I was updating rc.inet1 I took out the -L, but didn't make it clear enough why I had taken it out and how to use the DHCP_NOIP4ALL[x]="" option in rc.inet1.conf. This commit is simply updating that comment to be more verbose.

* Correct a couple of issues making shellcheck barf errors.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2020-01-051-2/+2
| | | | | The rest of the shellcheck issues are non-issue warnings that could possibly do with being corrected, but it's not a huge issue.

* IPv6 configuration support in netconfig. See full log.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-201-159/+310
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A lot of the changes are formatting (I had a bug I couldn't hunt down and the formatting wasn't helping), but there's quite a few new dialogs - not only to configure IPv6, but adding better user input issue handling. * Modify creation of the rc.inet1.conf file to incorporate IPv6. * Edited error text in syntax_check_color() to be more generic. * Added SLAAC option to the configuration type menu. * Added a new DHCP selection menu to cater for v4, v6 and both configurations. * Edited various dialog texts to be more consistent and/or IPv6 friendly. * Validate netmask that's entered by the user. * Produce an error about missing netmask when IPv4 IP is set. * Only do netmask and gateway (IPv4) prompting if an IPv4 address was set. * Added static IPv6 configuration dialogs. * Updated nameserver configuration dialog. * Added IPv6 fields to the final static IP confirmation/edit screen.

|
* Several small fixes - see log.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-131-8/+24
| | | | | | | | | * Added more debug_log calls around taking down interfaces. * When taking down a bridge, put the member interfaces down too. * Configure wireless interfaces before everything else - it might be that a wireless interface is part of a bond/bridge/VLAN. * When taking down VLAN interfaces, check if the underlying interface has an IP address. If it does, leave it up; else take it down.
* When creating a bond, flush the underlying interface IP.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-131-4/+2
| | | | Also removed redundant setting of a 0.0.0.0 IP address.
* Remove BONDOPTS, VLANOPTS and BROPTS and replace with generic IFOPTS.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-132-29/+45
| | | | | | | | | | Previously we had an xOPTS variable for each type of interface that could be configured. I've replaced this with a generic IFOPTS option which can be used to supply interface type specific options to 'ip'. As the option is now generic, it can be applied to physical interfaces too; so interfaces such as eth0 can have options applied just like a virtual interface.
* In rc.inet1.conf, be consistant with spacing and commenting.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-131-46/+45
|
* Added support for a BROPTS variable to set bridge specific settings.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-132-7/+18
| | | | | | | Before, it was not possible to set bridge specific options when creating a bridge. This option adds the ability to set options via a BROPTS variable, which takes a pipe (|) delimited set of options as documented in the ip-link(8) man page (search for "BRIDGE Type Support").
* Be consistent with variable case. Emit warning when assuming netmask.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-131-47/+50
|
* Create and document a new VLANOPTS variable.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-132-0/+12
| | | | | This variable can be used to set custom options to configure the VLAN interface. It does not need to be used in 'normal' operation with a VLAN.
* Initial support for bonding (link aggrigation) in rc.inet1.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-133-7/+72
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The bonding code introduces three new variables for use in rc.inet1.conf: BONDNICS[x]="" BONDMODE[x]="" BONDOPTS[x]="" The BONDNICS variable takes a list of interfaces which should be slaved to the bond. BONDMODE sets the mode of the bond. Useful options are 'balance-rr', 'active-backup' and '802.3ad'. A full list of options can be found in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/bonding.txt and README.bonding. BONDOPTS are a pipe (|) separated list of options to apply to the bond after the interfaces have been added. Useful options are 'primary' (which is required when BONDMODE is 'active-backup', 'xmit_hash_policy' (which can be used with 'balance-rr' to choose the hash policy, 'lacp_rate' (which should be used with '802.3ad' mode), and 'miimon' (which should be used with all modes) See the kernel source documentation or README.bonding for more info.
* Small fixes - see full log.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-122-13/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | Remove code to skip interfaces that do not have IP addresses configured. This checking is redundant now, and prevents interfaces being brought up without IP addresses - which is important for bridging/bonding/VLANs. When grabbing the vlan ID from the interface name, use ## instead of #. Move the point where bridges are taken down to before the point where wireless interfaces are taken down. This is required so that a bridge on a wireless interface is take down before the interface itself. When looping through the interfaces to take down, use MAXNICS-1.

* New configuration methodology - see full commit log.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-062-24/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | It occurred to me that IPv6 addresses don't really need to have IP6ALIASES since all IPs are just added to the interface itself. So I've changed the syntax from using IP6ADDR + PREFIXLEN + IP6ALIASES to using just a single IP6ADDRS array, which takes a list of IP addresses with a prefix length in a space separated list. eg: IP6ADDRS[0]="a:b:c:d::1/64 1:2:3::1/48" If the prefix length is omitted a /64 length is assumed and a warning emitted.
* Updated specification and wrapped all lines at 80 chars.Darren 'Tadgy' Austin2019-11-061-128/+191
