Bug#837759: network configuration stops working reliably

2016-09-19 Thread Martin Pitt
Control: severity -1 important
Contro: tag -1 unreproducible

In accordance with the severity definitions [1] I downgrade this to
"important". It does not completely break systemd, we don't enable
networkd by default, and it does not affect every installation (it's
not reproducible on our side yet).

Don't worry, I'm still eager to find out what's happening here; I'll
look at your logs as soon as possible.

When I disable systemd-networkd the problem disappears.

The reason I think it is a race is because it depends on how many interfaces 
you set up, if you use systemd-networkd to setup some interfaces and the number 
of ip-addresses and things you do in /etc/network/interfaces.

For example on that simple machines where I only have *.link and don't use 
systemd-networkd: sometimes (maybe 2 out of 10) it works, but most of the time 
I loose some or all ip-adresses.

Here is the log (without) debugging: in this case the interface only kept the 
IPv6 addresses and lost its ipv4 address, all set up in /etc/network/interfaces.

But there is nothing special about ipv4-addresses. With more interfaces one may 
loose some or all of the ipv6 adresses, too.

I think the crucial point is that systemd-networkd may declares the interface 
"net" unamanaged AFTER "net: Lost carrier" so that all addresses confgured 
until that point are ripped off.

This " Lost carrier" is always there on startup, don't know if this is caused 
by udev when it detects the interface on startup.


Here is the log with systemd-networkd disabled:

No, I don't loose any addresses then. But as you see there is no such "net: 
Lost carrier" or "TEST: Lost carrier" and so on.

*.link entries are handled by udev, not networkd. So if you can
reproduce this on a machine with only has files like

> ==
> [Match]
> MACAddress=11:22:33:44:55:66
> 
> [Link]
> Name=net
> WakeOnLan=off
> ==

then can you please "systemctl disable --now systemd-networkd" and
check if the problem still happens? I suppose not, but if so, this
tells us that this is being done through udev.

If networkd itself is really the culprit, can you please try the
following:

 * Keep it disabled, run your test.sh to set up the dummy interface,
   and run

 SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug /lib/systemd/systemd-networkd

  (as root). Does this now cause the addresses to be removed? This
  will run much later than test.sh, so this will tell us if this is a
  principal logic error or a race condition, i. e. only happens if
  networkd starts at the right time after test.sh.

 * Enable networkd again, and boot with "debug" in the kernel command
   line. Does this still reproduce the bug?

   If so, please attach the output of "journalctl -b".

   If not, just enable debugging for networkd with

   mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/systemd-networkd.service.d/
   printf '[Service]\nEnvironment=SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug' > 
/etc/systemd/system/systemd-networkd.service.d/debug.conf

   and reboot. If you catch the bug, please attach "journalctl -b".

Thanks,

BTW, I have tested manually on my system during runtime and cannot
reproduce. If this is a race maybe my laptop while idle managed to
configure faster than networkd managed to react.

I think this is the problem:

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/commit/?h=debian/231-6=79e10aaee1cdd412bd42f13f26e558ba1cd2196b

I suppose is that the check for LINK_STATE_UNMANAGED may be racy. The interface 
may go down and up before LINK_STATE_UNMANAGED is set. Maybe the state is 
LINK_STATE_PENDING ?

Yes, systemd-networkd ist active. But on most machines I only have *.link 
entries, usually one to name the device:

==
[Match]
MACAddress=11:22:33:44:55:66

[Link]
Name=net
WakeOnLan=off
==

Most of them are virtual machines.


On those machine where I also habe *.netdev and *.network entries this also 
happens. The one with the simpliest has only one *.network:

==
[Match]
Name=net

[Network]
LinkLocalAddressing=ipv6
IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements=no
DHCP=no
Address=10.11.12.13/24
Gateway=10.11.12.1
Address=2001:1234:1::abc1
Address=2001:1234:1::abc2
Address=2001:1234:1::abc3
Address=2001:1234:1::abc4
NTP=2001:1234:1::123

[Route]
Gateway=fe80::1
PreferredSource=2001:1234:1::abc1
==

This interface works fine. But other interfaces configured by 
/etc/network/interfaces or the manually created interface TEST loose there 
ipv4 and ipv6 addresses.

Please note, that I did not create a *.link entry for TEST on any of the 
machines. 


If I later restart these interfaces (with ifdown + ifup for 
/etc/network/interfaces, systemctl restart test-network-device.service for 
TEST) they keep their addresses.

It appears you are using systemd-networkd. Could you please attach
your networkd configuration?

Version 231-6 is built with iptables support, so that may be causing
an interaction that was not visible before.

Bug#837759: network configuration stops working reliably

2016-09-14 Thread Wolfgang Walter
Package: systemd
Version: 231-6
Severity: grave

Starting with version 231-6 the configuration of network interfaces stops 
working reliably when rebooting a system. Downgrading to 231-5 fixes the 
problem.

Symptoms: If a network interface is configured using /etc/network/interfaces 
it seems that systemd now sometimes removes the configured ip4 and/or ipv6 
addresses in the boot process. It also seems to remove routes of network 
interfaces configured manually or with /etc/network/interfaces if the link 
state changes.

This seems not only be the case with interfaces configured via /etc/network/
interfaces but with any interface one creates and assigns ip addresses 
manually.

I tested this with a script:

#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" = start ]; then
ip link del TEST >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
ip link add name TEST type dummy
ip -b - <<"EOF"
link set TEST up
addr add 10.10.10.10/32 dev TEST nodad
addr add 2a01:1:1:1::1/128 dev TEST nodad
addr add 2a01:1:1:1::2/128 dev TEST nodad
addr add 2a01:1:1:1::3/128 dev TEST nodad
addr add 2a01:1:1:1::4/128 dev TEST nodad
addr add 2a01:1:1:1::5/128 dev TEST nodad
EOF
ip addr ls TEST
sleep 2
elif [ "$1" = stop ]; then
ip addr flush dev TEST
ip link del TEST
fi

which I start with as a systemd oneshot service with
Before=systemd-networkd.service

I can see in the journal that TEST has all adresses assigned but with 231-6 it 
looses them again (probably when systemd-networkd.service starts). With 231-5 
or earlier this in not the case.
