2022-02-08Fix IPv6 netmask format for sysconfig (#1215)Harald
This change converts the IPv6 netmask from the network_data.json[1] format to the CIDR style, <IPv6_addr>/<prefix>. Using an IPv6 address like ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:: does not work with NetworkManager, nor networkscripts. NetworkManager will ignore the route, logging: ifcfg-rh: ignoring invalid route at \ "::/:: via fd00:fd00:fd00:2::fffe dev $DEV" \ (/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route6-$DEV:3): \ Argument for "::/::" is not ADDR/PREFIX format Similarly if using networkscripts, ip route fail with error: Error: inet6 prefix is expected rather than \ "fd00:fd00:fd00::/ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff::". Also a bit of refactoring ... cloudinit.net.sysconfig.Route.to_string: * Move a couple of lines around to reduce repeated code. * if "ADDRESS" not in key -> continute, so that the code block following it can be de-indented. cloudinit.net.network_state: * Refactors the ipv4_mask_to_net_prefix, ipv6_mask_to_net_prefix removes mask_to_net_prefix methods. Utilize ipaddress library to do some of the heavy lifting. LP: #1959148

2021-12-06cloudinit/net: handle two different routes for the same ip (#1124)Emanuele Giuseppe Esposito
If we set a dhcp server side like this: $ cat /var/tmp/cloud-init/cloud-init-dhcp-f0rie5tm/dhcp.leases lease { ... option classless-static-routes 31.169.254.169.254 0.0.0.0,31.169.254.169.254 10.112.143.127,22.10.112.140 0.0.0.0,0 10.112.140.1; ... } cloud-init fails to configure the routes via 'ip route add' because to there are two different routes for 169.254.169.254: $ ip -4 route add 192.168.1.1/32 via 0.0.0.0 dev eth0 $ ip -4 route add 192.168.1.1/32 via 10.112.140.248 dev eth0 But NetworkManager can handle such scenario successfully as it uses "ip route append". So change cloud-init to also use "ip route append" to fix the issue: $ ip -4 route append 192.168.1.1/32 via 0.0.0.0 dev eth0 $ ip -4 route append 192.168.1.1/32 via 10.112.140.248 dev eth0 Signed-off-by: Emanuele Giuseppe Esposito <eesposit@redhat.com> RHBZ: #2003231
2021-09-17Add connectivity_url to Oracle's EphemeralDHCPv4 (#988)James Falcon
Add connectivity_url to Oracle's EphemeralDHCPv4 On bionic, when trying to bring up the EphemeralDHCPv4, it's possible that we already have a route defined, which will result in an error when trying to add the DHCP route. Use the connectivity_url to check if we can reach the metadata service, and if so, skip the EphemeralDHCPv4. The has_url_connectivity function has also been modified to take a dict of kwargs to send to readurl. LP: #1939603

2021-08-10Update inconsistent indentation (#962)Andrew Kutz
This patch updates some indentation in a comment that prevented an attempt to run the Black formatter (https://github.com/psf/black) against the cloud-init codebase: $ find cloudinit -name '*.py' -type f | xargs black -l 79 --check ... Oh no! 💥 💔 💥 262 files would be reformatted, 19 files would be left unchanged, 1 file would fail to reformat. The one file that fails to format is cloudinit/net/__init__.py. With this fix in place, the black command can successfully parse the file into AST and back again: $ black -l 79 --check cloudinit/net/__init__.py would reformat cloudinit/net/__init__.py Oh no! 💥 💔 💥 1 file would be reformatted. Normally this patch would be part of such an overall effort, but since this is the only location that interrupted running the black command, this author felt it was worth addressing this discrepancy sooner than later in the case there is subsequent desire to use a standard format tool such as black.
2021-06-14add DragonFlyBSD support (#904)Gonéri Le Bouder
- Mostly based on FreeBSD, the main exception is that `find_devs_with_on_freebsd` does not work. - Since we cannot get the CDROM or the partition labels, `find_devs_with_on_dragonflybsd()` has a more naive approach and returns all the block devices.
2021-04-07bringup_static_routes: fix gateway check (#850)Petr Fedchenkov
When bringing up DHCP-provided static routes, we check for "0.0.0.0/0" to indicate an unspecified gateway. However, when parsing the static route in `parse_static_routes`, the gateway is never specified with a net length, so the "/0" will never happen. This change updates the gateway check to check only for "0.0.0.0".
2021-03-08net: exclude OVS internal interfaces in get_interfaces (#829)Daniel Watkins
`get_interfaces` is used to in two ways, broadly: firstly, to determine the available interfaces when converting cloud network configuration formats to cloud-init's network configuration formats; and, secondly, to ensure that any interfaces which are specified in network configuration are (a) available, and (b) named correctly. The first of these is unaffected by this commit, as no clouds support Open vSwitch configuration in their network configuration formats. For the second, we check that MAC addresses of physical devices are unique. In some OVS configurations, there are OVS-created devices which have duplicate MAC addresses, either with each other or with physical devices. As these interfaces are created by OVS, we can be confident that (a) they will be available when appropriate, and (b) that OVS will name them correctly. As such, this commit excludes any OVS-internal interfaces from the set of interfaces returned by `get_interfaces`. LP: #1912844

2020-06-08Move subp into its own module. (#416)Scott Moser
This was painful, but it finishes a TODO from cloudinit/subp.py. It moves the following from util to subp: ProcessExecutionError subp which target_path I moved subp_blob_in_tempfile into cc_chef, which is its only caller. That saved us from having to deal with it using write_file and temp_utils from subp (which does not import any cloudinit things now). It is arguable that 'target_path' could be moved to a 'path_utils' or something, but in order to use it from subp and also from utils, we had to get it out of utils.

- tested on OpenBSD 6.6 - tested on OpenStack without config drive, and NoCloud with ISO config drive
2020-03-12Add Netbsd support (#62)Gonéri Le Bouder
Add support for the NetBSD Operating System. Features in this branch: * Add BSD distro parent class from which NetBSD and FreeBSD can specialize * Add *bsd util functions to cloudinit.net and cloudinit.net.bsd_utils * subclass cloudinit.distro.freebsd.Distro from bsd.Distro * Add new cloudinit.distro.netbsd and cloudinit.net.renderer for netbsd * Add lru_cached util.is_NetBSD functions * Add NetBSD detection for ConfigDrive and NoCloud datasources This branch has been tested with: - NoCloud and OpenStack (with and without config-drive) - NetBSD 8.1. and 9.0 - FreeBSD 11.2 and 12.1 - Python 3.7 only, because of the dependency oncrypt.METHOD_BLOWFISH. This version is available in NetBSD 7, 8 and 9 anyway
2019-12-20freebsd: introduce the freebsd renderer (#61)Gonéri Le Bouder
* freebsd: introduce the freebsd renderer Refactoring of the FreeBSD code base to provide a real network renderer for FreeBSD. Use the generic update_sysconfig_file() from rhel_util to handle the access to /etc/rc.conf. Interfaces are not automatically renamed by FreeBSD using the following configuration in /etc/rc.conf: ``` ifconfig_fxp0_name="eth0" ``` * freesd: use regex named groups Reduce the complexity of `get_interfaces_by_mac_on_freebsd()` with named groups. * freebsd: breaks up _write_network() in tree small functions - `_write_ifconfig_entries()` - `_write_route_entries()` - `_write_resolve_conf()` * extend find_fallback_nic() to support FreeBSD this uses `route -n show default` to find the default interface * freebsd: use dns keys from NetworkState class The NetworkState class (settings instance) exposes the DNS configuration in two keys: - `dns_nameservers` - `dns_searchdomains` On OpenStack, these keys are set when a global DNS server is set. The alternative is the `dns_nameservers` and `dns_search` keys from each subdomain. We continue to read those. * freebsd: properly target the /etc/resolv.conf file * freebsd: ignore 'service routing restart' ret code On FreeBSD 10, the restart of routing and dhclient is likely to fail because - routing: it cannot remove the loopback route, but it will still set up the default route as expected. - dhclient: it cannot stop the dhclient started by the netif service. In both case, the situation is ok, and we can proceed. * freebsd: handle case when metadata MAC local locally Handle the case where the metadata configuration comes with a MAC that does not exist locally. See: - https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/pull/61/files/635ce14b3153934ba1041be48b7245062f21e960#r359600604 - https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/pull/61/files/635ce14b3153934ba1041be48b7245062f21e960#r359600966 * freebsd: show up a warning if several subnet found The FreeBSD provider currently only allow one subnet per interface. * freebsd: honor the target parameter in _write_network * freebsd: log when a bad route is found * freebsd: pass _postcmds to start_services() * freebsd: updatercconf() is depercated Replace `updatercconf()` by `rhel_util.update_sysconfig_file()`. * freebsd: ensure gateway is ipv4 before using it With the legacy ENI format, an IPv6 gateway may be pushed. This instead of the expected IPv4. * freebsd: find_fallback_nic, support FB10 On FreeBSD <= 10, `ifconfig -l` ignores the down interfaces. * freebsd: use util.target_path() to load resolv.conf Ensure we access `/etc/resolv.conf`, not `etc/resolv.conf`. * freebsd: skip subnet without netmask Those are likely to be either invalid of in IPv6 format. IPv6 support will be addressed later in a new patchset. * freebsd: get_devicelist returns netif list Ensure `get_devicelist()` returns the list of known netif on FreeBSD. * replace rhel_util.update_sysconfig_file wrapper call, with a wrapper function * reverse if condition to remove an indent Co-authored-by: Igor Galić <me+github@igalic.co>
2019-10-17fix some more typos in commentsDominic Schlegel
2019-10-04get_interfaces: don't exclude bridge and bond membersDaniel Watkins
The change that introduced this issue was handling interfaces that are bonded in the kernel, in a way that doesn't present as "a bond" to userspace in the normal way. Both members of this "bond" will share a MAC address, so we filter one of them out to avoid incorrect MAC address collision warnings. Unfortunately, the matching condition was too broad, so that change also affected normal bonds and bridges. This change specifically excludes bonds and bridges from that determination, to address that regression. LP: #1846535
2019-09-17net: add is_master check for filtering device listRyan Harper
Some network devices are transformed into a bond via kernel magic and do not have the 'bonding' sysfs attribute, but like a bond they have a duplicate MAC of other bond members. On Azure Advanced Networking SRIOV devices are auto bonded and will have the same MAC as the HyperV nic. We can detect this via the 'master' sysfs attribute in the device sysfs path and this patch adds this to the list of devices we ignore when enumerating device lists. LP: #1844191
2019-09-09net,Oracle: Add support for netfailover detectionRyan Harper
Add support for detecting netfailover[1] device 3-tuple in networking layer. In the Oracle datasource ensure that if a provided network config, either fallback or provided config includes a netfailover master to remove any MAC address value as this can break under 3-netdev as the other two devices have the same MAC. 1. https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/networking/net_failover.html
2019-08-13azure/net: generate_fallback_nic emits network v2 config instead of v1Chad Smith
The function generate_fallback_config is used by Azure by default when not consuming IMDS configuration data. This function is also used by any datasource which does not implement it's own network config. This simple fallback configuration sets up dhcp on the most likely NIC. It will now emit network v2 instead of network v1. This is a step toward moving all components talking in v2 and allows us to avoid costly conversions between v1 and v2 for newer distributions which rely on netplan.
2019-07-17net: update net sequence, include wait on netdevs, opensuse netrules pathRyan Harper
On systems with many interfaces, processing udev events may take a while. Cloud-init expects devices included in a provided network-configuration to be present when attempting to configure them. This patch adds a step in net configuration where it will check for devices provided in the configuration and if not found, issue udevadm settle commands to wait for them to appear. Additionally, the default path for udev persistent network rules 70-persistent-net.rules may also be written to systems which include the 75-net-generator.rules. During boot, cloud-init and the generator may race and interleave values causing issues. OpenSUSE will now use a newer file, 85-persistent-net-cloud-init.rules which will take precedence over values created by 75-net-generator and avoid collisions on the same file. LP: #1817368
2019-07-16net: add rfc3442 (classless static routes) to EphemeralDHCPRyan Harper
The EphemeralDHCP context manager did not parse or handle rfc3442 classless static routes which prevented reading datasource metadata in some clouds. This branch adds support for extracting the field from the leases output, parsing the format and then adding the required iproute2 ip commands to apply (and teardown) the static routes. LP: #1821102

2018-10-09net: ignore nics that have "zero" mac address.Scott Moser
Previously we explicitly excluded mac address '00:00:00:00:00:00'. But then some nics (tunl0 and sit0) ended up having a mac address like '00:00:00:00'. The change here just ignores all 00[:00[:00...]]. LP: #1796917
2018-09-26Add support for Infiniband network interfaces (IPoIB).Mark Goddard
OpenStack ironic references Infiniband interfaces via a 6 byte 'MAC address' formed from bytes 13-15 and 18-20 of interface's hardware address. This address is used as the ethernet_mac_address of Infiniband links in network_data.json in configdrives generated by OpenStack nova. We can use this address to map links in network_data.json to their corresponding interface names. When generating interface configuration files, we need to use the interface's full hardware address as the HWADDR, rather than the 6 byte MAC address provided by network_data.json. This change allows IB interfaces to be referenced in this dual mode - by MAC address and hardware address, depending on the context. Support TYPE=InfiniBand for sysconfig configuration of IB interfaces.
2018-09-13EphemeralIPv4Network: Be more explicit when adding default route.Scott Moser
On OpenStack based OVH public cloud, we got DHCP response with   fixed-address 54.36.113.86;   option subnet-mask 255.255.255.255;   option routers 54.36.112.1; The router clearly is not on the subnet. So 'ip' would fail when we tried to add the default route. The solution here is to add an explicit route on that interface to the router and then add the default route. Also add 'bgpovs' to the list of 'physical' types for OpenStack network configuration. That type is used on OVH public cloud. LP: #1792415
2018-05-09SmartOS: fix get_interfaces for nics that do not have addr_assign_type.Scott Moser
When attempting to apply network configuration for SmartOS's container platform, cloud-init would not identify nics. The nics on provided in this container service do not have 'addr_assign_type'. That was being interpreted as being a "stolen" mac, and would be filtered out by get_interfaces.
2018-04-26net: detect unstable network names and trigger a settle if neededRyan Harper
The cloud-init-local.service expects that any network device name changes have already been completed by the kernel or udev daemon. In some situations we've found that the renaming of interfaces from kernel names (eth0, eth1, etc) to their persistent names (eno1, ens3, enp0s1, etc) may happen after cloud-init-local has started where it reads values from sysfs about what network devices are present, and which device to use as a fallback nic. Subsequently, cloud-init-local would write out network configuration for a kernel device name which would no longer be present by the time that networking services start to bring up the devices. The result is that the instance does not get networking configured. Prior to use of systemd-networkd, the Ubuntu 'networking.service' unit included a call to udevadm settle which is why this race is not seen on a Xenial system. This change adds the ability to detect if an interface has a stable name, if if we find one without stable names and stable names have not been disabled (net.ifnames=0 in /proc/cmdline), then cloud-init will invoke udevadm settle. LP: #1766287
2018-04-19pylint: pay attention to unused variable warnings.Scott Moser
This enables warnings produced by pylint for unused variables (W0612), and fixes the existing errors.
2018-02-08net: accept network-config in netplan format for renaming interfacesRyan Harper
net.apply_network_config_names currently only accepts network-config in version 1 format. When users include a netplan format network-config the rename code does not find any of the 'set-name' directives and does not rename any of the interfaces. This causes some netplan configurations to fail. This patch adds support for parsing netplan format and extracts the needed information (macaddress and set-name values) to allow cloud-init to issue interface rename commands. We know raise a RuntimeError if presented with an unknown config format. LP: #1709715
2018-01-24OpenNebula: Improve network configuration support.Akihiko Ota
Network configuration in OpenNebula would only work if the host correctly guessed the names of the devices in the guest. OpenNebula provided data in its context.sh like 'ETH0_NETWORK', but if the guest named devices differently then results were not predictable. This would occur with Predictable Network Interface Names. To address this, newer versions (of OpenNebula provide the mac address ETH0_MAC. This function is present in 4.14 and documented officially in 5.0 docs. This provides support for reading the mac addresses from the context.sh. It also fixes cases where context.sh provided a field (ETH0_NETWORK or ETH0_MASK) with a empty string. Previously the empty string would be used rather than falling back to the default. LP: #1719157, #1716397, #1736750
2017-08-09ec2: Allow Ec2 to run in init-local using dhclient in a sandbox.Chad Smith
This branch is a prerequisite for IPv6 support in AWS by allowing Ec2 datasource to query the metadata source version 2016-09-02 about whether or not it needs to configure IPv6 on interfaces. If version 2016-09-02 is not present, fallback to the min_metadata_version of 2009-04-04. The DataSourceEc2Local not run on FreeBSD because dhclient in doesn't support the -sf flag allowing us to run dhclient without filesystem side-effects. To query AWS' metadata address @ 169.254.169.254, the instance must have a dhcp-allocated address configured. Configuring IPv4 link-local addresses result in timeouts from the metadata service. We introduced a DataSourceEc2Local subclass which will perform a sandboxed dhclient discovery which obtains an authorized IP address on eth0 and crawl metadata about full instance network configuration. Since ec2 IPv6 metadata is not sufficient in itself to tell us all the ipv6 knownledge we need, it only be used as a boolean to tell us which nics need IPv6. Cloud-init will then configure desired interfaces to DHCPv6 versus DHCPv4. Performance side note: Shifting the dhcp work into init-local for Ec2 actually gets us 1 second faster deployments by skipping init-network phase of alternate datasource checks because Ec2Local is configured in an ealier boot stage. In 3 test runs prior to this change: cloud-init runs were 5.5 seconds, with the change we now average 4.6 seconds. This efficiency could be even further improved if we avoiding dhcp discovery in order to talk to the metadata service from an AWS authorized dhcp address if there were some way to advertize the dhcp configuration via DMI/SMBIOS or system environment variables. Inspecting time costs of the dhclient setup/teardown in 3 live runs the time cost for the dhcp setup round trip on AWS is: test 1: 76 milliseconds dhcp discovery + metadata: 0.347 seconds metadata alone: 0.271 seconds test 2: 88 milliseconds dhcp discovery + metadata: 0.388 seconds metadata alone: 0.300 seconds test 3: 75 milliseconds dhcp discovery + metadata: 0.366 seconds metadata alone: 0.291 seconds LP: #1709772
2017-08-03net: Reduce duplicate code. Have get_interfaces_by_mac use get_interfaces.Scott Moser
get_interfaces_by_mac and get_interfaces just looked much alike. This makes get_interfaces_by_mac call get_interfaces.
2017-07-28cloudinit.net: add initialize_network_device function and testsChad Smith
This is not yet called, but will be called in a subsequent Ec2-related branch to manually initialize a network interface with the responses using dhcp discovery without any dhcp-script side-effects. The functionality has been tested on Ec2 ubuntu and CentOS vms to ensure that network interface initialization works in both OS-types. Since there was poor unit test coverage for the cloudinit.net.__init__ module, this branch adds a bunch of coverage to the functions in cloudinit.net.__init. We can also now have unit tests local to the cloudinit modules. The benefits of having unittests under cloudinit module: - Proximity of unittest to cloudinit module makes it easier for ongoing devs to know where to augment unit tests. The tests.unittest directory is organizated such that it - Allows for 1 to 1 name mapping module -> tests/test_module.py - Improved test and module isolation, if we find unit tests have to import from a number of modules besides the module under test, it will better prompt resturcturing of the module. This also branch touches: - tox.ini to run unit tests found in cloudinit as well as include all test-requirements for pylint since we now have unit tests living within cloudinit package - setup.py to exclude any test modules under cloudinit when packaging
2017-07-19net: fix renaming of nics to support mac addresses written in upper case.Scott Moser
The network device renaming code previously required the case of the mac address input to match that of the data read from the system. For example, if user provided network config with mac address in upper case, then cloud-init would not rename the device correctly as /sys/class/net/address stores lower case values. The fix here is to always compare lower case mac addresses. LP: #1705147
2017-06-27Azure: Add network-config, Refactor net layer to handle duplicate macs.Ryan Harper
On systems with network devices with duplicate mac addresses, cloud-init will fail to rename the devices according to the specified network configuration. Refactor net layer to search by device driver and device id if available. Azure systems may have duplicate mac addresses by design. Update Azure datasource to run at init-local time and let Azure datasource generate a fallback networking config to handle advanced networking configurations. Lastly, add a 'setup' method to the datasources that is called before userdata/vendordata is processed but after networking is up. That is used here on Azure to interact with the 'fabric'.
2017-06-06net: when selecting a network device, use natural sort orderMarc-Aurèle Brothier
The code deciding which interface to choose as the default to request the IP address through DHCP does not sort the interfaces correctly. On Ubuntu Xenial images for example, the interfaces are named ens1, ens2, ens3..., ens11, ... depending on the pci bus address. The python sorting will list 'ens11' before 'ens3' for example despite the fact that 'ens3' should be before 'ens11'. This patch address this issue and sort the interface names according to a human sorting. Signed-off-by: Marc-Aurèle Brothier <m@brothier.org>
2017-05-22Fix get_interfaces_by_mac for empty macsScott Moser
Some interfaces (greptap0 in the bug) have a mac address of '00:00:00:00:00:00'. That was causing a duplicate mac detection as the 'lo' device also has that mac. The change here is to just ignore macs other than 'lo' that have that. LP: #1692028
2017-04-20net: kernel lies about vlans not stealing mac addresses, when they doDimitri John Ledkov
Introduce is_vlan function and call that when building dictionary of interfaces by mac address. LP: #1682871
2017-03-31Fix bug that resulted in an attempt to rename bonds or vlans.Scott Moser
When cloud-init ran in the init stage (after networking had come up). A bug could occur where cloud-init would attempt and fail to rename network devices that had "inherited" mac addresses. The intent of apply_network_config_names was always to rename only the devices that were "physical" per the network config. (This would include veth devices in a container). The bug was in creating the dictionary of interfaces by mac address. If there were multiple interfaces with the same mac address then renames could fail. This situation was guaranteed to occur with bonds or vlans or other devices that inherit their mac. The solution is to change get_interfaces_by_mac to skip interfaces that have an inherited mac. Also drop the 'devs' argument to get_interfaces_by_mac. It was non-obvious what the result should be if a device in the input list was filtered out. ie should the following have an entry for bond0 or not. get_interfaces_by_mac(devs=['bond0']) LP: #1669860
2017-03-17net: add renderers for automatically selecting the renderer.Scott Moser
Previously, the distro had hard coded which network renderer it would use. This adds support for just picking the right renderer based on what is available. Now, that can be set via a priority in system_info, but should generally work. That config looks like: system_info: network: renderers: ["eni", "sysconfig"] When no renderers are found, a specific RendererNotFoundError is raised. stages.py is modified to catch that and log it at error level. This path should not really be exercised, but could occur if for example an Ubuntu system did not have ifupdown, or a rhel system did not have sysconfig. In such a system previously we would have quietly rendered ENI configuration but that would have been ignored. This is one step better in that we at least log the error.
