Subject: [PATCH v5 2/2] dhcpv6: Inject custom options into DHCPv6 replies
Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2026 23:43:02 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261029181303.714616-3-anskuma@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261029181303.714616-1-anskuma@redhat.com>

Append user-specified options from --dhcpv6-opt to DHCPv6 reply
messages.  Options that exceed available buffer space are skipped
with a rate-limited warning.

Link: https://bugs.passt.top/show_bug.cgi?id=192
Signed-off-by: Anshu Kumari <anskuma@redhat.com>
---
v5:
  - Replaced warn() with warn_ratelimit(now, ...)

v4:
  - warn() instead of debug() when options don't fit in the reply.
  - doc comment for dhcpv6_user_opts_fill() updated.

v3:
  - rename dhcpv6_custom_opts_fill() to dhcpv6_user_opts_fill().
  - Iterate directly over the pre-parsed binary dhcpv6_user_opts[]
    array instead of re-parsing string values at reply time.

v2:
  - Updated dhcpv6_custom_opts_fill() to parse str at reply time
    using dhcpv6_opt_parse() instead of copying cached val/len.
