Networking supports changing netdevice's netns and name
at the same time. This allows avoiding name conflicts
and having to rename the interface in multiple steps.
E.g. netns1={eth0, eth1}, netns2={eth1} - we want
to move netns1:eth1 to netns2 and call it eth0 there.
If we can't rename "in flight" we'd need to (1) rename
eth1 -> $tmp, (2) change netns, (3) rename $tmp -> eth0.
To rename the underlying struct device we have to call
device_rename(). The rename()'s MOVE event, however, doesn't
"belong" to either the old or the new namespace.
If there are conflicts on both sides it's actually impossible
to issue a real MOVE (old name -> new name) without confusing
user space. And Daniel reports that such confusions do in fact
happen for systemd, in real life.
Since we already issue explicit REMOVE and ADD events
manually - suppress the MOVE event completely. Move
the ADD after the rename, so that the REMOVE uses
the old name, and the ADD the new one.
If there is no rename this changes the picture as follows:
Before:
old ns | KERNEL[213.399289] remove /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
new ns | KERNEL[213.401302] add /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
new ns | KERNEL[213.401397] move /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
After:
old ns | KERNEL[266.774257] remove /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
new ns | KERNEL[266.774509] add /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
If there is a rename and a conflict (using the exact eth0/eth1
example explained above) we get this:
Before:
old ns | KERNEL[224.316833] remove /devices/virtual/net/eth1 (net)
new ns | KERNEL[224.318551] add /devices/virtual/net/eth1 (net)
new ns | KERNEL[224.319662] move /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
After:
old ns | KERNEL[333.033166] remove /devices/virtual/net/eth1 (net)
new ns | KERNEL[333.035098] add /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
Note that "in flight" rename is only performed when needed.
If there is no conflict for old name in the target netns -
the rename will be performed separately by dev_change_name(),
as if the rename was a different command, and there will still
be a MOVE event for the rename:
Before:
old ns | KERNEL[194.416429] remove /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
new ns | KERNEL[194.418809] add /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
new ns | KERNEL[194.418869] move /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
new ns | KERNEL[194.420866] move /devices/virtual/net/eth1 (net)
After:
old ns | KERNEL[71.917520] remove /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
new ns | KERNEL[71.919155] add /devices/virtual/net/eth0 (net)
new ns | KERNEL[71.920729] move /devices/virtual/net/eth1 (net)
If deleting the MOVE event breaks some user space we should insert
an explicit kobject_uevent(MOVE) after the ADD, like this:
@@ -11192,6 +11192,12 @@ int __dev_change_net_namespace(struct net_device *dev, struct net *net,
kobject_uevent(&dev->dev.kobj, KOBJ_ADD);
netdev_adjacent_add_links(dev);
+ /* User space wants an explicit MOVE event, issue one unless
+ * dev_change_name() will get called later and issue one.
+ */
+ if (!pat || new_name[0])
+ kobject_uevent(&dev->dev.kobj, KOBJ_MOVE);
+
/* Adapt owner in case owning user namespace of target network
* namespace is different from the original one.
*/
