I don't really care about the duplication, but I'm not sure nl_routes_dup() was the right thing to vendor. > Link: https://github.com/containers/podman/pull/23561#discussion_r1711639663 > Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio > --- > netlink.c | 97 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > netlink.h | 1 + > pasta.c | 6 ++++ > 3 files changed, 104 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/netlink.c b/netlink.c > index 873e6c7..4b49de1 100644 > --- a/netlink.c > +++ b/netlink.c > @@ -673,6 +673,103 @@ int nl_route_dup(int s_src, unsigned int ifi_src, > return 0; > } > > +/** > + * nl_addr_set_ll_nodad() - Set IFA_F_NODAD on IPv6 link-local addresses > + * @s: Netlink socket > + * @ifi: Interface index in target namespace > + * > + * Return: 0 on success, negative error code on failure > + */ > +int nl_addr_set_ll_nodad(int s, unsigned int ifi) > +{ > + struct req_t { > + struct nlmsghdr nlh; > + struct ifaddrmsg ifa; > + } req = { > + .ifa.ifa_family = AF_INET6, > + .ifa.ifa_index = ifi, > + }; > + ssize_t nlmsgs_size, left, status; > + unsigned ll_addrs = 0; > + struct nlmsghdr *nh; > + char buf[NLBUFSIZ]; > + uint32_t seq; > + unsigned i; > + > + seq = nl_send(s, &req, RTM_GETADDR, NLM_F_DUMP, sizeof(req)); > + > + /* nl_foreach() will step through multiple response datagrams, > + * which we don't want here because we need to have all the > + * addresses in the buffer at once. See also nl_route_dup(). Hmm.. do we need them all in the buffer at once, though? For routes_dup we needed it because we take multiple passes through the whole list, and that's not the case here. I guess we can't do an nl_do() within the loop, because that will expect the response to its own command while we're still getting reponses from the original NLM_F_DUMP. nl_addr_dup() gets away with it because the nl_do()s are on a different netlink socket. But.. I think we could nl_send() each NODAD request as we construct it, keep a count, then wait for all the queued responses. It means we can't easily match an error response to which thing caused it, but doesn't look like we were reporting in that much detail anyway. > + */ > + nh = nl_next(s, buf, NULL, &nlmsgs_size); > + for (left = nlmsgs_size; > + NLMSG_OK(nh, left) && (status = nl_status(nh, left, seq)) > 0; > + nh = NLMSG_NEXT(nh, left)) { > + struct ifaddrmsg *ifa = (struct ifaddrmsg *)NLMSG_DATA(nh); > + bool discard = false; > + struct rtattr *rta; > + size_t na; > + > + if (nh->nlmsg_type != RTM_NEWADDR) > + continue; > + > + if (ifa->ifa_index != ifi || ifa->ifa_scope != RT_SCOPE_LINK) > + discard = true; > + > + ifa->ifa_flags |= IFA_F_NODAD; > + > + for (rta = IFA_RTA(ifa), na = IFA_PAYLOAD(nh); RTA_OK(rta, na); > + rta = RTA_NEXT(rta, na)) { > + /* If 32-bit flags are used, add IFA_F_NODAD there */ > + if (rta->rta_type == IFA_FLAGS) > + *(uint32_t *)RTA_DATA(rta) |= IFA_F_NODAD; > + } > + > + if (discard) > + nh->nlmsg_type = NLMSG_NOOP; > + else > + ll_addrs++; > + } > + > + if (!NLMSG_OK(nh, left)) { > + /* Process any remaining datagrams in a different > + * buffer so we don't overwrite the first one. > + */ > + char tail[NLBUFSIZ]; > + unsigned extra = 0; > + > + nl_foreach_oftype(nh, status, s, tail, seq, RTM_NEWADDR) > + extra++; > + > + if (extra) { > + err("netlink: Too many link-local addresses"); > + return -E2BIG; > + } > + } > + > + if (status < 0) > + return status; > + > + for (i = 0; i < ll_addrs; i++) { > + for (nh = (struct nlmsghdr *)buf, left = nlmsgs_size; > + NLMSG_OK(nh, left); > + nh = NLMSG_NEXT(nh, left)) { > + int rc; > + > + if (nh->nlmsg_type != RTM_NEWADDR) > + continue; > + > + rc = nl_do(s, nh, RTM_NEWADDR, NLM_F_REPLACE, > + nh->nlmsg_len); > + if (rc < 0) > + return rc; > + } > + } > + > + return 0; > +} > + > /** > * nl_addr_get() - Get most specific global address, given interface and family > * @s: Netlink socket > diff --git a/netlink.h b/netlink.h > index 178f8ae..66a44ad 100644 > --- a/netlink.h > +++ b/netlink.h > @@ -19,6 +19,7 @@ int nl_addr_get(int s, unsigned int ifi, sa_family_t af, > void *addr, int *prefix_len, void *addr_l); > int nl_addr_set(int s, unsigned int ifi, sa_family_t af, > const void *addr, int prefix_len); > +int nl_addr_set_ll_nodad(int s, unsigned int ifi); > int nl_addr_dup(int s_src, unsigned int ifi_src, > int s_dst, unsigned int ifi_dst, sa_family_t af); > int nl_link_get_mac(int s, unsigned int ifi, void *mac); > diff --git a/pasta.c b/pasta.c > index 96545b1..838bbb3 100644 > --- a/pasta.c > +++ b/pasta.c > @@ -340,6 +340,12 @@ void pasta_ns_conf(struct ctx *c) > } > > if (c->ifi6) { > + rc = nl_addr_set_ll_nodad(nl_sock_ns, c->pasta_ifi); > + if (rc < 0) { > + die("Can't disable DAD for LL in namespace: %s", > + strerror(-rc)); So... I'm usually the one arguing *for* ASSERT()s and die()s, but in this case it seems overly drastic. If we're unable to set DAD it will slow things down, but mostly things should still work.
