It makes no sense to have a parser for the ethtool values in ethtool.py
and ethernet.py - one instance ios more then enough!

Not all interface drivers have the ability to change the speed and duplex
settings. Known drivers with this limitation are vmxnet3, virtio_net and
xen_netfront. If this driver is detected, an error will be presented to the
user.

Deprecated in the Linux Kernel by commit 08a00fea6de277df12ccfadc21 ("net:
Remove references to NETIF_F_UFO from ethtool.").

An analysis of the code base from VyOS 1.2 -> 1.3 -> 1.4 revealed the following
"root-cause"
VyOS 1.2 uses the "old" node.def file format for:
* Generic Segmentation Offloading
* Generic Receive Offloading
So if any of the above settings is available on the configuration CLI, the
node.def file will be executed - this is how it works.
By default, this CLI option is not enabled in VyOS 1.2 - but the Linux Kernel
enables offloading "under the hood" by default for GRO, GSO... which will boost
the performance for users magically.
With the rewrite in VyOS 1.3 of all the interface related code T1579, and
especially T1637 this was moved to a new approach. There is now only one handler
script which is called whenever a user changes something under the interfaces
ethernet tree. The Full CLI configuration is assembled by get_interface_dict() -
a wrapper for get_config_dict() which abstracts and works for all of our
interface types - single source design.
The problem now comes into play when the gathered configuration is actually
written to the hardware, as there is no GSO, GRO or foo-offloading setting
defined - we behave as instructed and disable the offloading.
So the real bug originates from VyOS 1.2 and the old Vyatta codebase, but the
recent XML Python rewrites brought that one up to light.
Solution:
A configuration migration script will be provided starting with VyOS 1.3 which
will read in the CLI configuration of the ethernet interfaces and if not
enabled, will query the adapter if offloading is supported at all, and if so,
will enable the CLI nodes.
One might say that this will "blow" the CLI configuration but it only represents
the truth - which was masked in VyOS 1.2.

VyOS 1.4 already had a migrator for interfaces 20 -> 21, but this is a different
one compared to the one in VyOS 1.3 - thus we bump every migration scripts
version by one to have the same 20-to-21 converter in both VyOS 1.3 and 1.4.
This is possible as VyOS 1.4 (sagitta) is still a highly experimental version
and expected to break from time to time :(.
|
|
The migrator from 20-to-21 is required as 19-to-20 on VyOS 1.3 - thus simply
rename/reorder the two migrators to not break things the hard way when
upgrading from 1.3 -> 1.4.
|
|
As the new WWAN interface style is backported to VyOS 1.3 we also need to shift
the order of the interface migration scripts. so the same order from VyOS 1.4
also applies to VyOS 1.3.
In short, 21-to-22 is renamed to 18-to-19 and all other migrators are shifted
up one version.

|
A VTI interface also requires an IPSec configuration - VyOS 1.2 supported
having a VTI interface in the CLI but no IPSec configuration - drop VTI
configuration if this is the case for VyOS 1.4.
