Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.7
Severity: normal
Hi,
I am using the madwifi-ng driver from http://www.madwifi.org and use the
following in my /etc/network/interfaces file:
------------------------------------snip---------------------------------
allow-hotplug ath0
iface ath0 inet dhcp
pre-up start-stop-daemon -S -p /var/run/wpa/ath0.pid -o
--exec /usr/local/sbin/wpa_supplicant.sh
post-down start-stop-daemon -K -p /var/run/wpa/ath0.pid -o
post-down ifconfig ath0 down
up /sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ath0 -j MASQUERADE
down /sbin/iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -o ath0 -j MASQUERADE
allow-auto wifi0
allow-hotplug wifi0
iface wifi0 inet manual
pre-up modprobe ath_pci
up modprobe wlan_scan_sta
up wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode sta
#locks, report as bug
# down ifdown --force ath0
down wlanconfig ath0 destroy
down modprobe -r wlan_scan_sta
post-down modprobe -r ath_pci
------------------------------------snip---------------------------------
The lines that commented out should be in there though to make sure that the
ath0 device goes down before wifi0 does (just to sync ifup).
However, that ifdown call does not succeed:
1033 pts/4 S 0:00 ifdown wifi0
1034 pts/4 S 0:00 ifdown --force ath0
Calling one after the other works.
This seems to be a bug.

Description:
ifupdown - high level tools to configure network interfaces
Closes: 266021 311011 311443 311777 311928 312988 330230 336931 338849 339834

Changes:
ifupdown (0.6.8) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Add myself as co-maintainer with approval from Anthony Towns.
* Change path of dhclient.leases to make sure the dhcp state survive
reboots. (Closes: #311777)
* Change leasehours option value to match the option name.
* Async ifup/ifdown modication based on patch from Scott James
Remnant and Ubuntu. (Closes: #347580)
- Rewrite the way that ifup and ifdown read and write the state
file. Instead of storing it in memory and holding a lock on it
(preventing concurrent processes from actually being concurrent)
use atomic read and write functions that only hold the lock for
very short periods.
- Write to the state file when we start bringing up or tearing
down the interface, so we don't ever try to do the same
operation at the same time.
- Update the state file once the operation is complete to ensure
we record the actual status of it.
* Acknowledge NMUs. (Closes: #311011, #311443, #353154, #339834, #311928,
#336931, #338849, #362093, #330230, #386794, #384866, #312988, #266021,
