I know that this is a pretty big net to catch some small fish,
but we *do* regularly forget to properly export symbols that
were supposed to be exported.
This time sd_bus_get_current and some renamed symbols are caught.
For GNOME (Continuous), we are unlikely to require or want
systemd-networkd in the near term future; all of the tools and code
are targeting NetworkManager.
The long term story is still an open question of course, but for now,
there's no reason for gnome-continuous to build or ship this.
This daemon listens for and configures network devices tagged with
'systemd-networkd'. By default, no devices are tagged so this daemon
can safely run in parallel with existing network daemons/scripts.
Networks are configured in /etc/systemd/network/*.network. The first .network
file that matches a given link is applied. The matching logic is similar to
the one for .link files, but additionally supports matching on interface name.
The mid-term aim is to provide an alternative to ad-hoc scripts currently used
in initrd's and for wired setups that don't change much (e.g., as seen on
servers/and some embedded systems).
Currently, static addresses and a gateway can be configured.
Example .network file:
[Match]
Name=wlp2s0
[Network]
Description=My Network
Gateway=192.168.1.1
Address=192.168.1.23/24
Address=fe80::9aee:94ff:fe3f:c618/64
NOTE: the show-* subcommands do not print some properties:
this are those with types like (so), a(so), (uo),...
we need to fix this, but I'm not sure how
The sd-event APIs should be available only as part of libsystemd-bus so
that the utility calls are not linked into each independently and we can
minimize the number of libraries we have.
To write useful bus code clients need to validate utf8 frequently since
the bus reacts allergic to it. Since glibc does not provide any calls
for this, let's provide it as part of libsystemd-bus.
Old static libsystemd-bus.la becomes libsystemd-bus-internal.la.
memfd functions are also exported in the same library.
(Best viewed with --color-words -U0).
The path_id-builtin provides useful unique aliases for DRM devices. If we
want to configure DRM render-nodes for compositors, we want to avoid
storing the whole sys-path in configuration files. Hence, allow users to
store the short PATH_ID instead.
Load path_id-builtin unconditionally on DRM devices now to always provide
this alias.
This introduces a new key MACAddressPolicy.
The possible policies are 'persistent' and 'random'.
'persistent' will do nothing if the current address is the hardware address,
but if the hardware does not have an address (or another address is set for
whatever reason), we will generate an address which will be random, but
persistent between boots (based on machineid and persistent netif name).
'random' will do nothing if the kernel already set a random address, otherwise
it will generate a random one and use that instead.
This patch sets MACAddressPolicy=persistent in the default .link file.
This introduces a new key NamePolicy, which takes an ordered list of naming
policies. The first successful one is applide. If all fail the value of Name
(if any) is used.
The possible policies are 'onboard', 'slot', 'path' and 'mac'.
This patch introduces a default link file, which replaces the equivalent udev
rule.
