  7. Как ускорить управление сетевой подсистемой Linux: пишем Netlink-обертку на C++

    Привет, Хабр! Меня зовут Егор Карамышев, в YADRO я разрабатываю ПО для коммутаторов семейства KORNFELD. В статье расскажу о реализованной нами С++ обертке для управления сетевой подсистемой Linux на основе протокола Netlink и библиотеки libnl3. В некоторых случаях она позволила на порядок ускорить работу функций конфигурирования. Разберемся, почему мы решили отказаться от подхода с системными вызовами, а также посмотрим на результаты временных тестов.

  8. Cositas que se pueden hacer con #nftables 😃

    Podés crear una app, por ejemplo, en #Python, y ejecutar las instrucciones de nftables directamente invocando al API de #netlink 🤯

    No es necesario llamar a comandos de la shell, podés usar instrucciones nativas dentro de tu código! 🔥

    Una ventaja más para aprender nftables y migrar tus configuraciones al nuevo framework! 😉

  12. The days of exchanging IP addresses to play Saturn games online over the NetLink Tunnel are over — SegaRPGFan just updated his software to use a new matchmaking server! Get the details in DoubleDime's story:

  13. Как отслеживать состояние сетевых интерфейсов на Linux

    Всем привет! Меня зовут Тимур, в компании

  14. I wonder how DSA network interfaces can be distinguished reliable. The port interfaces can be easily identified by the phys_port_name IFLA, but what is about the master interfaces?

    I've access to a SoC which has a `dsa` and `eth0` interface (besides 4 port ifaces). Both have the same driver, the same businfo and the same mac address. How can they be distinguished at all, even if they have been renamed or moved into a netns?

    Any ideas?

  15. #TIL routes on Linux can have two different netlink attributes (NLA) for the next-hop: RTA_GATEWAY and RTA_VIA. The latter is set when a NLRI from another address family is used, only.

    (And luckily nobody uses net-tools anymore: the old route command just ignores the RTA_VIA NLA and the route looks like a connected one 🤷)

  16. Has anyone here ever played around with using #Netlink for IPC between userspace processes? #Linux
  17. #Netlink arriving at #FreeBSD is very interesting. Now if they would implement switchdev to have #switch ASICs work as normal NICs, then FreeBSD would be a contender for #Marvell and #Mellanox #ASIC switches.

  18. The NetLink League’s latest online Sega Saturn tournament came down to the wire for an exciting finish in Virtual On — find out how it all went down (thanks to Cecil H4rvey for writing this story!):

  19. While implementing the netns handling in ifstate I got aware that pyroute2 did not have a netlink RTM_NEWNSID request implementation.

    I got github.com/svinota/pyroute2/pu merged into pyroute2 to add RTM_NEWNSID support.

    Later I have noticed that my implementation does not work within netns (pyroute2 related, some details in issue github.com/svinota/pyroute2/is ).

    After this tangled journey ifstate netns dev branch now has its first netns superpowers 😎

  20. @pete_wright @lattera As a result, from what I understand, we'll have an easier time detecting and reacting to events like an interface going down, a disk getting attached, etc. #netlink is not all about networking.

    3/3

  21. @pete_wright @lattera AFAIK, #netlink is just an old name. Nowadays, it does much more than that. One of the primary reasons of having it merged is that it offers a standardized way of passing messages from/to the kernel.

  22. The correct (unexpected?) answer is: 0

    When adding another ipv4 address of a already assigned prefix it becomes a secondary address. Removing the primary ipv4 address of a prefix removes all its secondary addresses of the prefix.

    A more complex examples is found in the attached screenshot.

    For ipv6 there is no secondary ip address concept. The bit in the #netlink datagrams for secondary addresses in ipv4 is used for temporary addresses in ipv6 netlink datagrams.

  23. Examine the console exhibit:

    # ip link set enp3s0f0 down
    # ip link set enp3s0f0 name eth42
    # ip link set eth42 name enp3s0f0

    The command where run as root on a Debian bullseye host. Which message is shown on stderr after the last command?
