I'm unsure what you mean. the hook script has marked dhcpcd as inactive, so either one of the following is true
1) The dhcpcd service does not provide net (the default one does)
2) Something else is providing net and is active
3) There's a bug
I'll try and look into it later

So far it's ok for me. I can see dhcpcd marked inactive. But ntpd is still running.

How could I check if and how net is provided?

Me? Nothing, I'm not entirely sure of the usefulness of this feature.
You either have complex scripts to update the IP services bind to (heh, like my hook scripts in dhcpcd - good examples there!) or you have the IP hard coded and made the running of DHCP for central IP management kinda redundant. |
Well there needs to be some sort of event-handling at the init-manager side, which has come up in other contexts too, so I'm trying to get a grasp of just what is essential and what isn't. I've consistently advocated for using dhcpcd to handle the netlink, so the first sounds better to me: no complexity til the admin explicitly specifies it, at which point it's their script on their machine, and not our problem ;)
Ah thanks; commented on the sh. I'd want to tweak that test a bit, codewise, though the compiler may do it for you, there's no guarantee; ie test the DHCPCD_WAITIP | DHCPCD_WAITIP4 | DHCPCD_WAITIP6 bits first.
| Quote: | | Sorry that you think it's gone down hill, but I really don't have the time to maintain it anymore. All my free time goes into dhcpcd, dhcpcd-ui (working on a dhcpcd-qt port as we speak). |
Eh, no bother, pretty much what I expected; istr you saying sth similar a few years ago. Just wish it wasn't being left to languish, as it'll bitrot at this rate. Mostly what the current "upstream" seems passionate about is sucking up to systemd to get in with the "big boys"; openrc is just a step imo; it's not being crafted any more, in the history I reviewed at least. (Everything from about 6-9 months ago, back to when you first started: I had to go back just to escape the crap, to reassure myself it wasn't your output.)

Blimey tried that; I guess I was spoilt by hanging out in #-portage for all these years; it's amazing the difference a good project lead makes.. anyhow let's not get into that discussion as it's not cogent to forward progress. If I were to sort anything with openrc at this point, I'd have to go back to your days, and filter out the crappy commits since, and add the bits they were trying to fix, only without the amateur-hour Gentoo-lol bashish, so that's not going to happen too soon, given current commitments. But it will happen at some point, since we need the software. *shrug* not your problem.
I'm glad you're still about though, and look forward to scripting with dhcpcd on my next install (after I sort this toolchain nonsense out.) |

I'm pretty sure that was discussed earlier in the thread, as it was something I asked about.
On your second point, anyone on a LAN, not using a laptop or other mobile device, can easily use a static IP. |

This method works great for me.
Unfortunately I have one issue:
When I wakeup my laptop from suspend, wifi is not working. I have a little script that removes the wl module (from net-wireless/broadcom-sta), reinserts it and uses rfkill, ifconfig and iw to set things up. But after a suspend, dhcpcd does not start wpa_supplicant for it automatically. Even restarting dhcpcd does not help, I have to manually start /etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant.
Any idea what the cause might be?
Oh, I have the following in dhcpcd.conf : | Code: | ~ $ grep -P "^[^#]\S" /etc/dhcpcd.conf
allowinterfaces eth* wlan*
denyinterfaces ppp* vmnet*
hostname
duid
persistent
option rapid_commit
option domain_name_servers, domain_name, domain_search, host_name
option classless_static_routes
option ntp_servers
option interface_mtu
require dhcp_server_identifier
slaac private
nohook lookup-hostname
interface lo
static ip_adress=127.0.0.1/8
interface wlan1
env ifwireless=1 |

dhcpcd only starts wpa_supplicant if it's not running and even then only during reconfigure or preinit phases.
Now, if you remove the kernel module, that implies the interface will vanish (if it removes the interface).
If dhcpcd spots this, it will stop wpa_supplicant.
When the kernel module is re-inserted, dhcpcd will spot (if it adds an interface) this, trigger preinit and start wpa_supplicant.
Have to ask why do this anyway? Just keep the module and don't rfkill on suspend?

Going to assume that the interface it will add is allowed.

You shouldn't need that with dhcpcd-6.4.5

That is the thing. The interface vanishes, re-appears, no wpa_supplicant is running, but dhcpcd won't start it for the interface. Even when dhcpcd itself is started. | UberLord wrote: | | Have to ask why do this anyway? Just keep the module and don't rfkill on suspend? |
There is a bug that causes the driver to fail to connect anywhere when the card came out of resume. rmmod+insmod is the "official" workaround. | UberLord wrote: | Going to assume that the interface it will add is allowed.

I have updated today after spotting the update. Haven't tried out whether the issue might be fixed completely with the new version. I'll reply to that once I have tested it.

It means you kernel is too old for that feature.
Due to the wisdom the of the linux kernel devs, we have no way of knowing if it exists at compile time so we force the value but only show an error with debugging enabled.
OK, so it does appear to be working. Could be a race somewhere. Try changing your kernel hack to this
| Code: | rmmod module
sleep 3
insmod module |
Or this
| Code: |
dhcpcd -x
rmmod module
insmod module
dhcpcd -d
|

One try with the new version yesterday. After wakeup the network status applet showed that the device does not exist (module not loaded), after a second it changed to "not connected", a second later it changed to "connected". Tried a ping on google, it worked.
Wow. That new version of dhcpcd really seemed to do do the trick! Thank you very much!

I have an issue here. I have gone through a huge upgrade (stayed months without upgrading) and a lot of packages have been touched so I have really no idea what causes this. Anyway.
I'm running kernel 3.16.6, OpenRC 0.12.4 (without netifrc) and dhcpcd 6.4.7. I noticed when the computer rebooted the loopback interface is down (causing a few services not to start) and I have to either enable /etc/init.d/loopback (which I'd like to avoid) or bring lo up manually and restart all depending services... which I'd like to avoid as well  . Is there a reason dhcpcd would not bring up lo?

dhcpcd does not bring up a loopback interface unless instructed to.
EDIT: To be fair, I've never tested it bringing one up either

Thanks, Roy. I must confess I crawled the man page several times but couldn't find a hint. Is it through a hook of some sort?

I might be soon .
