People often assigns the MAC address of the enslaved interface to e.g.
bridge interface. So, the local assignment bit should not be adjusted.
Fixes#21649.
This makes
- drop peers_with_unresolved_endpoint and peers_with_failed_endpoint,
- drop destroy handler for sd_resolve_query, and manage each query by peer,
- add random fluctuation to the timeout for retry handler,
- retry timer event source is now managed by peer,
- use sd_event_source_disable_unref().
Kernel manages each genl family by its name, e.g. "nlctrl" or WG_GENL_NAME,
and its ID (used for nlmsg_type) is determined dynamically when the
corresponding module is loaded.
This commit makes sd-netlink follow the same way; now, sd_genl_family_t
is dropped, and sd_genl_message_new() takes a genl family name. Each
genl family is resolved when it is used first time, and its information
is stored in GenericNetlinkFamily.
While we haven't implemented a key for users to set MACVLAN/MACVTAP flags,
we can at least allow them to make use of the Promiscuous= key of
the corresponding link to set the nopromisc flag.
In general we almost never hit those asserts in production code, so users see
them very rarely, if ever. But either way, we just need something that users
can pass to the developers.
We have quite a few of those asserts, and some have fairly nice messages, but
many are like "WTF?" or "???" or "unexpected something". The error that is
printed includes the file location, and function name. In almost all functions
there's at most one assert, so the function name alone is enough to identify
the failure for a developer. So we don't get much extra from the message, and
we might just as well drop them.
Dropping them makes our code a tiny bit smaller, and most importantly, improves
development experience by making it easy to insert such an assert in the code
without thinking how to phrase the argument.
Previously, when `link_request_queue()` is called in link_request_set_link(),
`SetLinkOperation` is casted with INT_TO_PTR(), and the value is assigned to
`void *object`. However the value was read directly through the member
`SetLinkOperation set_link_operation` of the union which `object`
beloging to. Thus, read value was always 0 on big-endian systems.
Fixes configuring link issue on s390x systems.
This allows to limit units to machines that run on a certain firmware
type. For device tree defined machines checking against the machine's
compatible is also possible.
