Package: debian-installer
Version: 20110106+b1
Hi,
I try to install a HP DL180G6 fully automated. The Server has an
addtional dualport NIC. kernel and initrd are loaded over the NIC
labeled 0 on the Box, after the kernel has initialized all NICs the
first Ethernet on the add in card is eth0.
~ # cat /proc/cmdline

BOOTIF is a pxelinux boot parameter. It is supported by the Debian
initramfs when pxe booting, but it is not supported by the Debian
installer.
Perhaps it should be. In the meantime, you can use the documented
preseeding interface of booting with interface=eth1. I don't think
netcfg allows specifying a interface by MAC though.

Understood. While googling, I found
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=504753. This does a
half hearted job by setting automatically netcfg/choose_interface.

In my reality there are lots of boxes (>5k) with lots of different
configurations of onboard and addin cards.
To get my job done all those 5000 Machines must comply to some very very
basic guidelines. After the installation, the inner interface is always
eth0 if there is a public interface, it is eth1. If there are crosslinks
they are eth1 and onward.
I need a simple and powerful mechanism to enforce this against the
quirks of udev and bioses.

You may want to develop the needed support for such things in
netcfg.
From what I read of Joey's answer, a solution could be allowing to
specify the wanted interface by its MAC address, in netcfg, through a
specific boot parameter...or s specific handling of the existing
"interface" parameter.

So you would basically want the installer to rename the interfaces so
that the interface that the system booted from (as given as BOOTIF
kernel command line parameter) is eth0 in the freshly installed
system?
Maybe it would be a good idea not to have this enabled by default, but
for example by a new command line parameter eth0=<macaddress> with the
special case of eth0=bootif which would make sure that eth0 is the PXE
device?

Are there any docs for netcfg? After a cursory glance at the source
package, it looks like the docs are contained in those nice .c and .h
files with a little too little documentation about the interfaces.

There's no docs for netcfg, AFAIK, but it isn't that complicated.
However, Matt Palmer is currently reorganizing the code, so you'd better
synchronize with him before you start fiddling with it.
On the other hand, the issue at hand probably doesn't belong into
netcfg. Naming network interfaces is a job for udev, and netcfg can
simply use eth0 after that, if I read Thomas correctly.
I routinely do this by putting /etc/udev/rules.d/60-manual-net.rules
into the installer initramfs AND copying it into /target at the end of
the installation. One could make this fully dynamic if needed, even
without remastering the initramfs, by elaborate preseed/early_command
specifications.

I guess the following changes do kind of a job:
etc/udev/rules.d/69-bootif.rules (inside the installer's initrd)
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", IMPORT{program}="bootif $attr{address}"
lib/udev/bootif (inside the installer's initrd)
#!/bin/sh
bootif="$(< /proc/cmdline sed 's/.*[[:space:]]BOOTIF=\([-0-9A-Fa-f]\+\).*/\1/' | tr '[A-F-]' '[a-f:]')"
if [ "01:$1" = "$bootif" ]; then
echo INTERFACE_NAME=eth0
fi
Unfortunately, this seems to go a little too far. My test system comes
up with the second interface being the bootif, so it's eth1 without
these additions. With my additions, the following numbering happens:
MAC Address without additions with additions
A eth0 eth4
B eth1 eth0
C eth2 eth3
D eth3 eth5
The /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules that is being generated
has the first interface found twice:
ATTR{address} NAME with additions
C eth2
C eth3
B eth0
A eth4
D eth5
I guess there may be a race going on. Is there any possibility to have
bootif honored without generating a broken 70-persistent-net.rules and
with still having the interfaces numbered consecutively?
Greetings
Marc

This seems to be the fault of the additional rule which gives the
impression that the rule is actually doing something. Even when I
replace the bootif script with a call to true, I get multiple stanzas
per interface in 70-persistent-net.rules.
Do I need to say in the 69-bootif.rules that this should be treated as
a no-op rule?

The related Ubuntu bug has a patch as well: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/56679
(Matt already mentioned he doesn't like that patch, so it's not a permantent solution.
But if you are just looking for a quick fix for now, you can use it in your own build).

In my limited testing (with two Qemu interfaces) this didn't happen
after several
# rm 70-persistent-net.rules
# udevadm trigger --verbose --action=add --subsystem-match=net
cycles. Actually, your rule worked perfectly well, despite that you
don't reserve the eth0 name, just try to assign it even if it's taken
already. Unless I overlook something, this should be fixed.
I usually assign symbolic names instead of ethX ones, like wlan, utp,
private, gb1 (chassis label) or similar; they usually work just fine,
but sometimes break assumptions of some software (like Munin plugins).
Maybe keeping the domain and the range of the mapping would help
debugging this case as well.

I don't think so. But /lib/udev/write_net_rules activates set -x if
udev logging is set to debug level, and while the output in
/var/log/syslog is less than readable, it may prove some insight.
# udevadm control --log-priority=debug

Did you try with a multiprocessor VM? I guess that this is some
threading/multiprocessing issue that multiple interfaces get processed
at the same time, causing races.

How do I reserve a name?

I do this for my personal servers as well, but for the default
install, I'd rather follow the principle of least surprise for the
other admins that will use the servers deployed by me.
So it would really be nice to have ethx, starting at eth0 being the
right interfaces, with the other interfaces being consecutively
numbered as ethx.

Maybe, I didn't try it on SMP. write_net_rules has some locking to
prevent such issues, though.

By renaming eth0 to something else, unless it isn't the boot interface.

My rule hasn't, but it shouldn't do anything if the script is silent,
should it?

So my script should print INTERFACE_NAME="foo0" to its standard output
if invoked for an interface that is eth0 and not the boot interface?
And who is responsible to rename it back into the ethx namespace?

Your rule shouldn't do anything than possibly importing a property into
the event environment, and the bootif script only reads constant data,
so it shouldn't need any locking either.

Nobody, I'm afraid. What you want isn't particularly simple, especially
that ethX devices may be appearing concurrently, so you'll have to
synchronize much like write_net_rules does. You can't even guarantee
that there will be an eth0 at the end! I'd probably start by modifying
write_net_rules, it already has some special code handling eth0.

Howdy,
I just came across this report in Debian's bug tracker.

Floris Bos mentioned that this is similar to an oldish bug (at least
by Ubuntu standards) in Ubuntu's bug tracker against the netcfg
package:
provide a method to use a specified MAC-address as the installation device
* https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/56679
We have a proposed solution, in the attached script, S31pxedust.
Adding 'ipappend 2' to the host's pxelinux config file makes PXELINUX
append the mac address of that interface to the kernel options.
* http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/SYSLINUX#IPAPPEND_flag_val_.5BPXELINUX_only.5D
This allows the initrd to access to the mac address of the interface
which PXE booted and is probably the interface we want to use for
DHCP.
Executing from the debian-installer-startup.d directory of the initrd,
this script reads the value of the 'BOOTIF' kernel option and looks to
see if there is an interface name with this mac address. If so, it
then uses 'db_set' to change the 'netcfg/choose_interface' option to
this interface name.
Would you be willing to consider this approach? We'd absolutely like
to avoid diverging from Debian in support of a BOOTIF kernel option
for installations, and we have a great need for a supported approach.
I'm willing and able to modify and test the attached boot accordingly.
Please advise.
Thanks,

Thanks for sending this along.
I think honouring BOOTIF is the right thing to do. You can always
remove 'ipappend 2' if you don't like it, but I think the overwhelming
probability is that you want to use the same interface for installation
as you did for PXE-booting.
However, I think this implementation has two problems:
* It's at too high a priority: it overrides any other setting of
netcfg/choose_interface. If you have 'ipappend 2' but also for some
reason have (say) interface=eth1 in your boot parameters, then the
latter is a more explicit instruction to d-i and therefore should
win. (Andrew noted this in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/56679/comments/13.)
* It runs too early. Network interfaces may not necessarily be
available when debian-installer-startup runs; this isn't too likely
in a netboot image, granted, but it's possible if you're adding
drivers later by way of a USB stick or something.
I think Andrew's script was expedient for him - it's a lot simpler to
drop a shell script into d-i's initramfs than it is to modify C programs
there - but a better long-term solution for us would be to do this in
netcfg itself. I have put my money where my mouth is and implemented
this. My patch overrides the results of link detection with the
interface that matches BOOTIF, but preseeding an interface name
overrides both of those. This feels right to me. I've done some
testing in a qemu instance with multiple network interfaces and it's
behaving exactly as I'd expect.
I've committed the following patch, and I plan to release netcfg 1.63
with it shortly.
