2026-06-22vyos-netlink: T7965: only re-apply QoS configuration to individual interfaceChristian Breunig
The previous vyos-netlinkd implementation for QoS policy re-apply was very heavy. It conducted a full CLI validation and re-apply on every interface. Instead we do not only re-apply the QoS configuration to the interface which has had an address change detected by vyos-netlinkd. This can be tested by checking "tc qdisc show" before disconnecting a PPPoE interface and during/after reconnect. There will be no qdisc until the dynamic interface has received an IP address - then the qdisc will be re-applied.
2026-06-20vyos-netlink: T7965: re-apply QoS configuration on dynamic interfacesopswill
Re-apply QoS after dynamic interfaces get addresses after connect/disconnect. When PPPoE interfaces re-connect we need to re-do QoS settings.
2026-06-03vyos-netlinkd: T8950: track per-interface operstate to suppress UP-to-UP ↵Robert Navarro
DHCP restarts _handle_dhcp_events() restarts dhclient/dhcp6c on every RTM_NEWLINK that carries operstate=UP, regardless of whether the interface was already UP. Normal kernel events that re-notify UP without a preceding DOWN (e.g. post-migration gratuitous-ARP, promiscuous-mode toggles) trigger unnecessary DHCP restarts. Each restart also creates a feedback loop: dhclient-script runs "ip link set dev <if> up" during PREINIT, which emits another RTM_NEWLINK(UP), which triggers another restart. One seed event becomes 10+ restarts in 15 seconds. Add a module-level dict tracking the last observed operstate per interface. Only proceed with the DHCP restart when the transition is DOWN-to-UP or when no previous state is recorded (first boot / service restart). UP-to-UP re-notifications are suppressed with a LOG_DEBUG message. Validated on a production VyOS 2026.05.26-1327-rolling router: a controlled KVM live migration after the patch produced zero DHCP restarts (all UP-to-UP events suppressed), with no impact on normal DOWN-to-UP DHCP recovery.
2026-05-18vyos-netlinkd: T8781: try IPRoute.bind() RTNL subscription first (#5207)Christian Breunig
Not all pyroute2 versions which ship IPRoute() support subscribing to RTNL multicast groups. If subscribing fails, fallback to all messages.
2026-05-15vyos-netlinkd: T8781: use faster commit_in_progress2 with order O(1)Christian Breunig
Move to the re-implementation of the commit in progress check added in commit 002d45b70efd ("vyos.commit: T8781: move from O(n) to O(1) for commit_in_progress() checks").

2026-05-14T8831: smoketests: irregular PermissionError caused by systemctl stopChristian Breunig
Failures appear during PPPoEIf.remove() -> flush_addrs() -> set_dhcpv6(False), where disable uses self._cmd(f'systemctl stop ...'), which raises on any non-zero exit code of cmd(). PermissionError: [Errno 1] is misleading: cmd() raises OSError(exit_code, feedback); exit code 1 maps to PermissionError in Python 3, so logs point at "permissions" while the real signal is systemctl stop returned 1 (job failure, timeout, restart contention with Restart=always on dhcp6c@.service. Add a small systemd teardown helper stop_systemd_unit() validating the return codes from the "systemctl stop" calls.

strace: Process 16362 attached [pid 16362] execve("/bin/cli-shell-api", ["/bin/cli-shell-api", "--show-active-only", "showConfig", "interfaces"], ...) = 0 [pid 16362] +++ exited with 0 +++ --- SIGCHLD ... strace: Process 16363 attached [pid 16363] execve("/bin/cli-shell-api", ["/bin/cli-shell-api", "--show-active-only", "showConfig", "interfaces"], ...) = 0 [pid 16363] +++ exited with 0 +++ --- SIGCHLD ... This would appear to be due to vyos-netlinkd calling op_mode_config_dict() more than is necessary: it can be called only when it may be applicable (this patch).

2026-03-19vyos-netlinkd: T8047: replace netplugdChristian Breunig
Implementing a daemon that listens for netlink messages in Python was discussed for many years. This is a proof-of-concept implementation how we can listen for netlink messages and process them in Python. Python 3.10 minimum is required due to the use of case statements which mimics C-style switch/case instructions. Add example: set interfaces ethernet eth1 vif 21 address dhcp set interfaces ethernet eth1 vif 21 address dhcpv6 commit If network cable is unplugged: vyos-netlinkd[12681]: RTM_NEWLINK -> eth3.10, state=DOWN, mac=00:50:56:b3:9d:8e vyos-netlinkd[12681]: Stopping dhclient@eth3.10.service... vyos-netlinkd[12681]: Stopping dhcp6c@eth3.10.service...
