From d2fc88962a9a494ecb34167871bb9e7273a25d33 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: ajs Date: Sat, 2 Apr 2005 18:38:43 +0000 Subject: 2005-04-02 Andrew J. Schorr Fix problems when netlink interfaces are renamed (same ifindex used for a new interface). Start cleaning up some problems with the way interface names are handled. * interface.c: (if_new_intern_ifindex) Remove obsolete function. (if_delete_update) After distributing the interface deletion message, set ifp->ifindex to IFINDEX_INTERNAL. (if_dump_vty) Detect pseudo interface by checking if ifp->ifindex is IFINDEX_INTERNAL. (zebra_interface) Check return code from interface_cmd.func. Do not set internal ifindex values to if_new_intern_ifindex(), since we now use IFINDEX_INTERNAL for all pseudo interfaces. * kernel_socket.c: (ifm_read) Fix code and comments to reflect that all internal interfaces now have ifp->ifindex set to IFINDEX_INTERNAL. * rt_netlink.c: (set_ifindex) New function used to update ifp->ifindex. Detects interface rename events by checking if that ifindex is already being used. If it is, delete the old interface before assigning the ifindex to the new interface. (netlink_interface, netlink_link_change) Call set_ifindex to update the ifindex. * if.h: Remove define for IFINDEX_INTERNBASE and add define IFINDEX_INTERNAL 0, since all internal (i.e. non-kernel) pseudo- interfaces should have ifindex set to 0. (if_new) Remove function. (if_delete_retain) New function to delete an interface without removing from iflist and freeing the structure. (ifname2ifindex) New function. * if.c: (if_new) Remove function (absorb into if_create). (if_create) Replace function if_new with call to calloc. Set ifp->ifindex to IFINDEX_INTERNAL. Fix off-by-one error in assert to check length of interface name. Add error message if interface with this name already exists. (if_delete_retain) New function to delete an interface without removing from iflist and freeing the structure. (if_delete) Implement with help of if_delete_retain. (ifindex2ifname) Reimplement using if_lookup_by_index. (ifname2ifindex) New function to complement ifindex2ifname. (interface) The interface command should check the name length and fail with a warning message if it is too long. (no_interface) Fix spelling in warning message. (if_nametoindex) Reimplement using if_lookup_by_name. (if_indextoname, ifaddr_ipv4_lookup) Reimplement using if_lookup_by_index. * bgp_zebra.c: (bgp_interface_delete) After deleting, set ifp->ifindex to IFINDEX_INTERNAL. * isis_zebra.c: (isis_zebra_if_del) Call if_delete_retain instead of if_delete, since it is generally not safe to remove interface structures. After deleting, set ifp->ifindex to IFINDEX_INTERNAL. (zebra_interface_if_lookup) Tighten up code. * ospf6_zebra.c: (ospf6_zebra_if_del) Previously, this whole function was commented out. But this is not safe: we should at least update the ifindex when the interface is deleted. So the new version updates the interface status and sets ifp->ifindex to IFINDEX_INTERNAL. (ospf6_zebra_route_update) Use if_indextoname properly. * ospf_vty.c: (show_ip_ospf_interface_sub) Show ifindex and interface flags to help with debugging. * ospf_zebra.c: (ospf_interface_delete) After deleting, set ifp->ifindex to IFINDEX_INTERNAL. (zebra_interface_if_lookup) Make function static. Tighten up code. * rip_interface.c: (rip_interface_delete) After deleting, set ifp->ifindex to IFINDEX_INTERNAL. * ripng_interface.c: (ripng_interface_delete) After deleting, set ifp->ifindex to IFINDEX_INTERNAL. --- lib/if.h | 39 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 30 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) (limited to 'lib/if.h') diff --git a/lib/if.h b/lib/if.h index f5efda6e..df9ff605 100644 --- a/lib/if.h +++ b/lib/if.h @@ -36,10 +36,6 @@ Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA. */ #define INTERFACE_NAMSIZ 20 #define INTERFACE_HWADDR_MAX 20 -/* Internal If indexes start at 0xFFFFFFFF and go down to 1 greater - than this */ -#define IFINDEX_INTERNBASE 0x80000000 - #ifdef HAVE_PROC_NET_DEV struct if_stats { @@ -75,11 +71,19 @@ struct if_stats /* Interface structure */ struct interface { - /* Interface name. */ + /* Interface name.
