[systemd-devel] Plan for DHCP Option 119?

2017-04-25 Thread Daniel Wang
Hi all, First of all this is my first email to this list so apologies if it's not worded perfectly. I am wondering if there's any plan to support Domain Search List option in networkd. Some cloud providers like GCE, advertise multiple search domains through option 119 and they just get ignored

[systemd-devel] Is there a way to recover from a crashed systemd without rebooting?

2017-10-31 Thread Daniel Wang
I hit a bug in systemd-232 and it crashed. Anything I tried to do with `systemctl`, including `systemctl daemon-reexec` seemed to rely on the systemd dbus service, which all resulted in `Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.systemd1': timed out`. systemd runs as PID 1. Is there any way to

[systemd-devel] When is a unit "loaded"?

2018-07-11 Thread Daniel Wang
I have a unit, say foo.service, on my system that's in /usr/lib/systemd/system, but disabled by preset. On system boot, it doesn't show as "loaded" per `systemctl --all | grep foo`. So if I override it with a file with the same name but under /etc/systemd/system, `systemctl cat foo.service` will

[systemd-devel] Router Advertisement in systemd

2018-11-05 Thread Daniel Wang
Hi all, Recently I realized that systemd-networkd implements its own Router Advertisement and NDISC. While I am perfectly fine with using it, I wonder what motivated it given that the Linux kernel already implemented both. Is it features? Flexibility? Stability? Also, what else in the ipv6 stack
