Comment (by bdubbs@…):
dhcpcd-7 defaults the database directory to `/var/db/dhcpcd` instead of
`/var/db` and now stores dhcpcd.duid and dhcpcd.secret in there instead of
in /etc.
The Makefile `_confinstall` target will attempt to move the files
correctly from
the old locations to the new locations.
Of course this won't work if dhcpcd-7 is packaged up, so packagers will
need to
install similar logic into their dhcpcd package.
Here's the list of changes from rc4:
- dhcp: when unicasting on L3, unicast on L2 as well
- dhcp: when rebooting, don't set cidaddr
- dhcp6: don't listen on IPv6 addresses when not using DHCPv6
- dhcp: only set probe state when probing (fixes REBOOT reason)
- linux: use IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE for IPv4 addresses
- ipv6: disable kernel RA if interface is active
- hooks: set protocol to link for link layer events
dhcpcd-7.0.0-rc4 has been released with the following changes:
- Mark routes as set by RA/DHCP in Linux
- Don't flush prefix routes/routers if kernel does not support RA
- Remove OpenBSD route labels
- dhcp: improve errors around UDP checksum failure
- dhcp: announce existing addresses before rebooting
- bpf: rework loop so that we can close/reopen fd inside and abort
- ipv6nd: don't handle NA/RA for non active interfaces
- dhcp6: listen on all addresses in non master mode
- dhcpcd-run-hooks: set protocol in dhcpcd, don't guess
- Ensure that xid is unique across all interfaces
- dhcp6: redirect message to interface which uses the xid
- bsd: strip scope from LL addresses when detecting their addition
- ipv6nd: fix address lifetime overflow on carrier up
- dhcp6: fix confirmation of lease on carrier up
- eloop: fix signal catching before eloop is started on Linux
dhcpcd-7.0.0-rc3 has been released with the following noteable changes:
- Fixed handling RA's from multiple routers
- Fixed changing to a better route based on gateway
- IPv6 default route is now deleted when config is not persistent
- Use hmac(3) if available in libc to reduce binary size
dhcpcd-7.0.0-rc2 released
- dhcp: fixed classless static routes
- prefix delegation: build routes after assigning addresses
- dhcp: on lease expiration, discover only when carrier
- ip6: fix potential segfault when lifetime overflows
- bsd: compile on recent OpenBSD platforms
- dhcp: fix reporting of DNS encoded SIP servers
- dhcp6: fix unicast in non master mode
