From `ip-link(8)`:
> [no]ignore-df - enables/disables IPv4 DF
suppression on this tunnel. Normally datagrams
that exceed the MTU will be fragmented; the
presence of the DF flag inhibits this, resulting
instead in an ICMP Unreachable (Fragmentation
Required) message. Enabling this attribute causes
the DF flag to be ignored.
If this option is enabled for a GRE/GRETAP tunnel, the `DF` flag in the outer IP header
will not inherit the inner IP header's `DF` flag.
This is useful to transfer packets that exceed the MTU of the underlay
network.
-1 was used everywhere, but -EBADF or -EBADFD started being used in various
places. Let's make things consistent in the new style.
Note that there are two candidates:
EBADF 9 Bad file descriptor
EBADFD 77 File descriptor in bad state
Since we're initializating the fd, we're just assigning a value that means
"no fd yet", so it's just a bad file descriptor, and the first errno fits
better. If instead we had a valid file descriptor that became invalid because
of some operation or state change, the other errno would fit better.
In some places, initialization is dropped if unnecessary.
When a PF port becomes down (this can happens e.g. the PF port is joining
a bond interface), some drivers make its VF ports also become down, and
may cause failures in configuring VF ports.
Similary, when a VF port become down, some drivers make its PF port and
other VF ports down.
Let's configure SR-IOV ports (both PF and VFs) after all link-layer
settings of all ports being applied.
Fixes#23315.
This is a natural use case, and instead of defining a wrapper to do this
for us, let's just make this part of the API. Calling with NULL was not
allowed, so this is not a breaking change to the interface.
(After sd_event_source_is_enabled was originally added, we introduced
sd_event_source_disable_unref() and other similar functions which accept
NULL. So not accepting NULL here is likely to confuse people. Let's just
make the API usable with minimal fuss.)
Since we don't need the error value, and the buffer is allocated with a fixed
size, the whole logic provided by in_addr_to_string() becomes unnecessary, so
it's enough to wrap inet_ntop() directly.
inet_ntop() can only fail with ENOSPC. But we specify a buffer that is supposed
to be large enough, so this should never fail. A bunch of tests of this are added.
This allows all the wrappers like strna(), strnull(), strempty() to be dropped.
The guard of 'if (DEBUG_LOGGING)' can be dropped from around log_debug(),
because log_debug() implements the check outside of the function call. But
log_link_debug() does not, so it we need it to avoid unnecessary evaluation of
the formatting.
This is a high-level function, and it belongs in libsystemd-shared. This way we
don't end up linking a separate copy into various binaries. It would even end
up in libsystemd, where it is not needed. (Maybe it'd be removed in some
optimization phase, but it's better to not rely on that.)

No functional change.
Let's raise our supported baseline a bit: CLOCK_BOOTTIME started to work
with timerfd in kernel 3.15 (i.e. back in 2014), let's require support
for it now.
This will raise our baseline only modestly from 3.13 → 3.15.
This makes Request object takes hash, compare, free, and process functions.
With this change, the logic in networkd-queue.c can be mostly
independent of the type of the request or the object (e.g. Address) assigned
to the request, and it becomes simpler.
In most netlink handlers, we do the following,
1. decrease the message counter,
2. check the link state,
3. error handling,
4. update link state via e.g. link_check_ready().
The first two steps are mostly common, hence let's extract it.
Moreover, this is not only extracting the common logic, but provide a
strong advantage; `request_call_netlink_async()` assigns the relevant
Request object to the userdata of the netlink slot, and the request object
has full information about the message we sent. Hence, in the future,
netlink handler can print more detailed error message. E.g. when
an address is failed to configure, then currently we only show an
address is failed to configure, but with this commit, potentially we can
show which address is failed explicitly.
This does not change such error handling yet. But let's do that later.
This also renames e.g. request_process_address() -> address_process_request().
Also, this drops type checks such as `assert(req->type == REQUEST_TYPE_ADDRESS)`,
as in the later commits, the function of processing request, e.g.
`address_process_request()`, will be assigned to the Request object when
it is created. And the request type will be used to distinguish and to
avoid deduplicating requests which do not have any assigned objects,
like REQUEST_TYPE_DHCP4_CLIENT. Hence, the type checks in process functions
are mostly not necessary and redundant.
This is mostly cleanups and preparation for later commits, and should
not change any behavior.
