From 5fb4ac2286167e1ca400b3ad434d4e3bd4586a19 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Philippe Seewer Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2009 17:16:46 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Add DAD to dhclient-script The manpage for dhclient-script says: Before actually configuring the address, dhclient-script should somehow ARP for it and exit with a nonzero status if it receives a reply. By using arping in dracut this is very easy, since arping has a specific option to do just that. --- modules.d/40network/dhclient-script | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/modules.d/40network/dhclient-script b/modules.d/40network/dhclient-script index 54ec2f56..0bbdcfc6 100755 --- a/modules.d/40network/dhclient-script +++ b/modules.d/40network/dhclient-script @@ -64,6 +64,10 @@ case $reason in wait_for_if_up $netif ;; BOUND) + if ! arping -q -D -c 2 -I $netif $new_ip_address ; then + warn "Duplicate address detected for $new_ip_address while doing dhcp. retrying" + exit 1 + fi setup_interface set | while read line; do [ "${line#new_}" = "$line" ] && continue
