Bugzilla Bug 215295

emerge -uavDnN world

Emerges (inter alia) net-misc/dhcpcd-3.2.3

Actual behaviour


dhcpcd fails to get an IP address on booting both for wireless and Ethernet
connections both on my x86 laptop and on my AMD-64 desktop


Fix 1 - manual network configuration
Fix 2 - mask =net-misc/dhcpcd-3.2.3 in /etc/protage/package.mask, then 'emerge
-C =net-misc/dhcpcd; then 'emerge -uavDnN net-misc/dhcpd' and then
net-misc/dhcpcd-3.1.5-r1 is installed - seems to work fine.

Same problem here. I never get an IP (from my router's DHCP server). I can
manually configure eth0 and access the router and Internet. I did a "emerge
--sync" and "emerge -u world" today, March 29,2008. which is when I upgraded to
net-misc/dhcpcd  3.2.3 and started having problem. I do not know the last
version of dhcpcd I had but it would have been early to mid 2007 or so and it
worked.

Upgrade the kernel to a less buggy one as the packet filter was broken in
kernels 2.6.19 and fixed in 2.6.24.

I also have the same problem.
If that is the fix, then it should be required to emerge kernel 2.6.24 before
allowing this version to be installed.

I'm facing a similar issue. I upgraded my amd64 box from dhcpcd-3.1.5-r1 to
3.2.3. I'm running a 2.6.21 kernel and I CAN'T upgrade, since I'm running a
xen-kernel.

I put anything newer than 3.1.5-r1 into package.mask for now as a workaround.
But what's the long term solution? Fixing 2.6.21-xen?

You can apply the kernel patch found here to fix the issue.
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.24.y.git;a=commitdiff;h=dbcb5855d108b7fa20ab42567a5412ce9dcd776a;hp=6640e69731b42fd5e3d2b26201c8b34fc897a0ee

Hi,

Just upgraded my kernel to 2.6.24-gentoo-r4. I verified that the patch
mentioned by Roy Marples was in net/packet/af_packet.c. That patch is indeed
available in 2.6.24-r4.

Yet dhcpcd-3.2.3 will still not get an IP number... So I reverted back to
3.1.5-r1 once again.

This is affecting me too.  Using 3.1.5-r1 fixed the problem.

I am running amd64 on kernel 2.6.19-gentoo-r5.

Same here. On amd64

I fixed it by
emerge =net-misc/dhcpcd-2.0.5-r1 -av  
At least I know this version works.

Anyone with this bug care to test dhcpcd-4.0.0_beta1 to see if this has been
fixed? Ebuilds can be found on bug #219321.

With dhcpcd-3.2.3 I had to enable the vram USE flag (to disable DUID) to get it
to work with a Solaris 8 DHCP server; this might work with other servers too.

Unfortunately dhcpcd-4.0.0_beta1 breaks DHCP with the same server, even though
DUID is disabled by default; I'll look into this further.

If the compat USE flag is enabled AND the DUID file exists (now
/etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd.duid) then DUID is enabled by default. This is done to
retain compat with existing dhcpcd-3 clients who had DUID enabled by default.

Stopped working after dhcpcd-4.0.0_beta3 and beta4. Kernel is 2.6.25-r4 with
module r8169 for ethernet.

I'm supposed to auto-merge:
1) /etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd.sh (1)
2) /etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-exit-hook.d/ypbind.sh (1)
right? It just seems silly to not to...

Anyone who has dhcpcd-4 NOT working (ie getting a lease - I know there is a bug
with routing in beta4) then please ATTACH your kernel config and state which
kernel sources you are using. Also, ATTACH a tcpdump (with -s 0 -w /tmp/foo -i
eth0) or wireshark trace of dhcpcd trying the transaction.

ATTACHING is important. no-one wants to scroll past screen after screen of
emerge --info output.

I realized that my situation is completely different this one bug, so I filed a
new <a href="http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=223141">bug #223141</a>

[14:33] <rsmarples> dberkholz (or anyone with a bugzie dev account): be a
darling and close bugs #215295, #216005, #217666 and #222381 as dhcpcd-4 is now
in stable and closes those issues
