Bug Description

[Impact]

 * networkd fails to renew a lease, specifically it fails to change IPv4 address via DHCP renew/rebind.
 * networkd relies on a kernel feature to promote secondary IPv4 address to primary, upon primary address lease expiry.
 * this sysctl tunable was not enabled by default in systemd.

[Test Case]

Add a device, and assign two IPv4 addresses. First one, with a short lease time. Second one, with a different ip and a longer lease time. Second one should be treated as secondary ip address, and upon expiry of the first one, should be promoted and become primary ip address. The below scripted instructions simulate this:

sudo ip link add name testleases type dummy

sudo ip address add 192.0.2.10/27 dev testleases \
  valid_lft 5 preferred_lft 5

sudo ip address add 192.0.2.11/27 dev testleases \
  valid_lft 11 preferred_lft 11

ip address list dev testleases | \
grep -q 'inet 192.0.2.10/27 scope global dynamic testleases' \
&& echo ok || echo not ok

ip address list dev testleases | \
grep -q 'inet 192.0.2.11/27 scope global secondary dynamic testleases' \
&& echo ok || echo not ok

sleep 6

ip address list dev testleases | \
grep -q 'inet 192.0.2.11/27 scope global dynamic testleases' \
&& echo ok || echo not ok

sudo ip link del dev testleases

[Regression Potential]

 * This changes the default kernel behaviour, previously upon expiry of the primary address, secondary addresses were removed as well. Which is imho silly.

* comparing networkd renewal with isc-dhcp renewal the semantics are quite different. Upon acquiring new ip address, isc-dhcp would instantly flush existing ip address, and add a new one. Networkd add the new address as secondary, and waits for old one to expire first before promoting / switching to using the new ip address. IMHO kernel should have an API to promote secondary ip address to a primary one.

* This update also applies other safe-looking options, which are currently also already applied via sysctls shipped in other packages

# Source route verification
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1
net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter = 1

# Do not accept source routing
net.ipv4.conf.default.accept_source_route = 0
net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_source_route = 0

# Enable hard and soft link protection
fs.protected_hardlinks = 1
fs.protected_symlinks = 1

* This update also applies the following upstream/bufferbloat.net recommended setting

# Fair Queue CoDel packet scheduler to fight bufferbloat
net.core.default_qdisc = fq_codel

* [~racb] There are complex network setups out there, such as HA with corosync/pacemaker, OpenStack Neutron, and that kind of thing. If this fix were SRU'd, will all of these things in the wild cope with this sysctl change?

[Other Info]

 * Original bug report

Hi there,
we found a replicable issue that involves the Ubuntu Core networking and causes complete loss of connectivity.
We run a custom board with ubuntu core: the architecure is amrhf.
We replicated this issue with an official Ubuntu Core image on a Raspberry Pi: other platform was been tested.
It shows that it is a snap core problem which interests networkd: we use the default network stack based on networkd + netplan.

Below steps to replicate the issue.

    1)Setup a dhcp server for lease of about some minutes (i.e 10 minutes).
    2)Boot the board and wait for get an ip from dhcp server
    3)Before the lease expires, set a reservation for a different ip address

Depending on lease duration before the lease expires( for 10 minute we have 2 minutes before ), networkd configure the new address in addition to the previous one.
When the lease expire both ip address ( the prevoius and the new one ) disappear from the interested network interface.
Depending on lease duration before the second lease expires ( for 10 minure we have 2 minutes before ) networkd configure only the new ip address on the network interface and the ping toward an outside host work properly.

During the test the dhcp server records correctly leases and their duration.

We check directly from console the network interface setting with the tool ip, checking continuously the value for ip address and valid_lft fields for the interested network interface.

Please note that if the ip address setting are the same between leases the problem doesn’t jump out.

Please note that if the ip address setting are different between lease the problem jumps out and it is very bad:

Typically the lease time on consumer router are about some day, then a board that change ip between lease loses the network connectivity for some day without a direct action.

Please, after a confirmation from your side of the issue, could you fix the problem or escalate the issue at the upstream project?

We are available for further testing.

I spend a bit of time debugging this with xnox. Here some of the results:

# How to reproduce:
I setup a isc-dhcp-server with a fixed IP for my test rpi2 set to default/max lifetime of 120sec. The rpi2 was connected to the network with the isc-dhcp-server but unmodified otherwise. Once the pi2 connected and got an IP I switched the default IP to +1 and reloaded the isc-dhcp-server configuration. When the lease expired I could see the same as the OP - i.e. both IPs got removed.

SRUs are supposed to be minimal to minimise regression risk. Do you have an SRU justification for this set of changes, please? Are they related to this bug, and if not, shouldn't they be tracked in a separate bug?

I'd like to abstain from the judgment of making the change for existing releases via an SRU. (Be sure to make sure this change is obvious and easy to search for in package changelog please. Noting it in future release notes with statement that it has been rolled back to previous releases too would also be very kind.)

No, as the alternative is what isc-dhcp /sbin/dhcp-client does that is
flush current dhcp lease IP and add a new IP, meaning that networking
is dropped =/
Which to me is horrifying.
Promotion of secondary addresses should actually reduce split-brain
situations. I don't buy the HA/Neutron argument, as in HA environment
the underlying nodes have static ip addresses and the management of
floating ip addresses is not managed by DHCP leases, given the DHCP
timings and fragility. Are you implying that HA and Neutron rely on
DHCP lease renew/rebind which can be initiated and spoofed by the
clients arbitrary?

No, as that is racy.

Code wise it is a lot more risk-prone -> will require rewritting
networkd state machine.

Promoting secondary addresses has been around since 2.6.12 and I'm not
sure why that is not the default, given that if one wants to flush a
subset of ip addresses one can do so using the flush command. And
interent seems to be full of posts where people are surpised that
secondary ip addresses are removed when one removes the oldest one.
There is no kernel API to promote secondary ip address to primary; or
to have multiple primary ip addresses (such that removal / expiry of
one, doesn't affect others that happen to be from the same subnet) or
to explicitly add a secondary ip address.

This is not an SRU justification, however, as we have been doing this
for decades and it is not a problem in practice, nor a regression from
previous releases.

I think you misunderstand my concern. I'm not talking about DHCP in my
HA use case. I'm talking about whether tweaking the particular sysctl
knob will cause any adverse affects in use cases unrelated to this bug.
All use cases that do unusual things with (layer 3) network
configuration need to be considered or eliminated.

I'm not claiming any particular regression. I'm trying to identify
unknown unknowns ("Regression Potential") here which might happen as a
consequence of tweaking a global sysctl value to change behaviour for
*all* existing users and corresponding use cases in a stable release.

And DHCP on eth0 interface.

Upgraded systemd to:

systemd 234-2ubuntu12.3

Observed that promote_secondaries, got enabled on networkd DHCP managed link:

Installed netplan, executed ifupdown-upgrade, rebooted:

Upgraded systemd to the one in proposed:

# dpkg-query -W systemd
systemd 229-4ubuntu21.2

# grep -e 0 -e 1 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/promote_secondaries

/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/promote_secondaries:1
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/lo/promote_secondaries:0

Observed change in promote_secondaries for eth0 device.

Note, when not migrating to netplan, promote_secondaries remains as 0, preserving the current xenial behaviour under ifupdown.
