to set the interface ip, subnet, and broadcast address simultaneously.
The advantage of this approach is that a single netlink notification
will be sent rather than multiple messages as the ip, subnet,
and broadcast address are set one at a time.
Currently this function is not used, as it will require a wire format
change that will be introduced in a subsequent commit.
but simply return a bool indicating whether the destination received
a truncated copy of the source (true if truncation occurs else false).
The change in return value semantics allows these functions to stop
scanning the source string early when truncation occurs, stopping the
program from scanning a possibly arbitrary-length source string.
I rarely use these return values in my own programs, so it won't be
very hard to bulk convert with no risk of regressions.
Further, the different namespace allows me to not depend on the presence
or absence of strlc(py|at) in the standard libraries.
DHCP messages anyway, since the IPv4 min MTU is 576 bytes and the max DHCP
message size + IP and UDP headers is less than that, but it is still worth
checking.
broken before because of too-strict filters.
Move setup_signals under the seccomp filter to give it more testing coverage.
Make the UDP datagram length check much more strict. If the read buffer
does not match up with the header lengths exactly, it is discarded.
Print a warning to syslog/stdout when ifchd execute_buffer() returns an
error.
Fix a regression introduced in ifchd that would cause the epoll handler to
spin when a client connection closed.
This change also modifies the ndhc/ifchd wire protocol slightly. The
new protocol doesn't overload the ':' character as a key:value separator
and a statement separator. Instead ';' is now used as a statement separator.
The new format allows for more robust error-checking and reporting, and it
greatly simplifies the parser. Old versions of ndhc/ifchd will not work
properly with ones compiled after this commit.
The 'domain' and 'search' keywords in resolv.conf updates are now used
more precisely. The first domain in an update is the 'domain', and the
subsequent 5 domains are 'search' domains.
There are also supporting cleanups that pass struct ifchd_client pointers
to functions instead of passing index values.
This commit is large, but it cannot really be broken up into smaller
chunks since the changes are dependent on each other.
