Improve IPv6 RA support by allowing dhcpcd to manage addreses and
routes instead of the kernel. dhcpcd will only do this if RA has been
disabled in the kernel or instructed to do so via the dhcpcd.conf(5)
ipv6ra_own and/or ipv6ra_owndefault directives.
Send and process IPv6 Neighbor Solicitions and Adverts to prove router
reachability. If a router cannot be reached in this way then it is
expired.
* Add a suffix to all our config files so that RA never stamps on IPv4
* All valgrind errors fixed on FreeBSD (with ./configure --debug=YES)
* When started with an interface list, respect that with signal handling
* Fix a potential route table corruption if we failed to add a route
New sentence, new line.
Sort options and option descriptions.
Sort SEE ALSO.
Use Fl Fl for long options.
Comment out --version description which binary doesn't support.
* We store the RA against the interface so we can do a comparsion
so we don't spam the log frequently.
* By default only fork on RA if it has a valid RDNSS option
* Add .Lk macros to the man pages
* Use correct event loop calls in RA handling code
* Fix several memory overrun issues
* Use CSR more than once
* Allow operation on Bridge and VLAN interfaces
* Disregard IFF_RUNNING on link state changes
* Warn about the kernel not configured for IPv6 RAs instead of
complaining it can't send messages
OK: releng@
* Stop checking IFF_RUNNING in RTM_IFINFO in an unknown link state
* RA expiry now tiggers off the first option if newer than the prefix
* Prefer a DHCP lease over an IPv4LL one
* Don't start IPv6 RS if disabled globally
* Allow dhcpcd to run on a read only filesystem
* Don't attempt to run the script if an empty string or /dev/null
* Stop truncating the netmask sockaddr on routing messages for BSD
* Shell portability fixes, including proper printf usage.
* Detect a valid ntp.conf before adjusting it
* reboot timeout changed to 5 seconds
* When rebooting and not daemonized, reduce the discover timeout
to allow for fallback or IPv4LL
* Respect each kernel carrier message
* Optimize some bitwise logic
* Don't remove interfaces for which commands have not been sent
* Store the assigned metric to each route so that we can change metrics on the fly
dhcpcd -n --metric 100 iwi0
* Add SixRD support, RFC5969
* Fix SIP server support
* Only regen resolv.conf if it has changed
* Fix --reconfigure from spinning
* Add IPv6 Router Solicitation support we regards to RDNSS and DNSSL, RFC6016
* 20-resolv.conf now uses the correct variable for $IF_METRIC
* Exclude interface values when dumping the lease
* Parse static value subnet_mask when it exists instead of deriving from
ip address
* logger calls now resemble dhcpcd calls to syslog(3)
* Reject offered IP address if INADDR_BROADCAST or INADDR_ANY
* Change the route if source address has changed
* Note the address we are requesting in the broadcast log entry
* When operating on one interface, respect the timeout for in dhcpcd.conf
* Escape | and & characters before passing the value to the shell
Ensure we set a valid hostname, DNS domain and NIS domain.
Document the need for input validation in dhcpcd-run-hooks(8).
Fixes CVE-2011-996
Based on a patch to dhcpcd-3 by Marius Tomaschewski <mt@suse.de>
* syntax in 50-ypbind hook has been fixed
* man page corrections
* report hwaddr used by dhcpcd when debug is enabled
* Fix detecting inet address for INFORM support
* document reason RELEASE in dhcpcd-run-hooks
* Support RTM_CHGADDR in the upcoming NetBSD-6
This is used to work out if the hwaddr has changed as the interface
does not go down/up unlike other OSes
* ntp hook no longer attempts to restart ntpd if 1st attempt failed
* Use dynamically sized buffers for reading kernel link events
* Use the active link address
* Added option to dump a lease to stdout
* TEST mode now works correctly if an old lease is NAKed
* routes with the gateway = leased ip are now treated as host routes
* Fix crash when using clientid and the interface re-configures
* log the pid of dhcpcd
* Indicate server IP received message from even if server ID not
present
* Fix crashes on IPv4LL failure and add more logging
* VendorID is now dhcpcd-$version:$OS-$version:$machine:$platform
* IPv4LL address range can now be used in DHCP requests
* sysctl net.ipv4.conf.$iface.promote_secondaries enabled on Linux
This resolves a long standing issue of changing ip on the same subnet.
* IPv4LL correctly resets the DHCP timer.
* -H, --xidhwaddr uses the last 4 bytes of the hardware address as
the DHCP xid
* -J, --broadcast tells the DHCP server to broadcast replies
* no longer warn about InfiniBand being an unsupported family
* infinite lease times are valid when reading old leases
* discard address correctly if lease is invalid
Changes from dhcpcd-5.1.3 include:
* dhcpcd logs even in quiet mode.
* Sleep for 1/100th of a second to give time for kernel to send RELEASE.
* -S option now works.
* Only warn about using CSR on bind.
* waitip is enabled when running on a single interface.
* Classless Static Routes are now enabled by default in dhcpcd.conf
instead of being always being requested.
* ClientID is now reported when interface starts.
* -w, --wait forces dhcpcd to wait until an interface gets a lease or
times out.
* Ensure DHCP socket is open when sending a DECLINE.
* Uses new hwaddr if existing interface is downed and then changed.
* No longer works on firewire interfaces by default.
dhcpcd-5.1.2 has a new behaviour change - when starting up and at least 1
interface has a carrier then it tries to get a lease or times out.
It still daemonises regardless. This, along with the -b and -w flags
allows total control over the desired behaviour of dhcpcd.
Changes from dhcpcd-5.0.7 include
* Only allow hardware families we know by default (over-ridable)
* Fix persistent and timeout 0 options
* Fix parsing of escape code sequencies
* Don't bring up interfaces brought down when handling new interfaces
* Allow un-encapsulated vendor option
* Don't null terminate gratuitously when handling quotes
* Fix various typos and grammatical errors
* dhcpcd.conf simplified a little
Changes from dhcpcd-5.0.6 include:
* Fix -f path/to/config
* -e, --env var=value for profile specific env vars
* Many issues resolved when running in test mode
* Don't print a (null) string when there is no NAK message
* read ssize_t instead of size_t when checking signals
