"udhcp: use poll() instead of select()"
Feb 16 2017
udhcp_sp_read() is meant to check whether signal pipe indeed has some data to read.
In the above commit, it was changed as follows:
- if (!FD_ISSET(signal_pipe.rd, rfds))
+ if (!pfds[0].revents)
return 0;
The problem is, the check was working for select() purely by accident.
Caught signal interrupts select()/poll() syscalls, they return with EINTR
(regardless of SA_RESTART flag in sigaction). _Then_ signal handler is invoked.
IOW: they can't see any changes to fd state caused by signal haldler
(in our case, signal handler makes signal pipe ready to be read).
For select(), it means that rfds[] bit array is unmodified, bit of signal
pipe's read fd is still set, and the above check "works": it thinks select()
says there is data to read.
This accident does not work for poll(): .revents stays clear, and we do not
try reading signal pipe as we should. In udhcpd, we fall through and block
in socket read. Further SIGTERM signals simply cause socket read to be
interrupted and then restarted (since SIGTERM handler has SA_RESTART=1).
Fixing this as follows: remove the check altogether. Set signal pipe read fd
to nonblocking mode. Always read it in udhcp_sp_read().
If read fails, assume it's EAGAIN and return 0 ("no signal seen").
udhcpd avoids reading signal pipe on every recvd packet by looping if EINTR
(using safe_poll()) - thus ensuring we have correct .revents for all fds -
and calling udhcp_sp_read() only if pfds[0].revents!=0.
udhcpc performs much fewer reads (typically it sleeps >99.999% of the time),
there is no need to optimize it: can call udhcp_sp_read() after each poll
unconditionally.
To robustify socket reads, unconditionally set pfds[1].revents=0
in udhcp_sp_fd_set() (which is before poll), and check it before reading
network socket in udhcpd.
TODO:
This might still fail: if pfds[1].revents=POLLIN, socket read may still block.
There are rare cases when select/poll indicates that data can be read,
but then actual read still blocks (one such case is UDP packets with
wrong checksum). General advise is, if you use a poll/select loop,
keep all your fds nonblocking.
Maybe we should also do that to our network sockets?

With new code, we request that target IP (server ID) must be directly reachable.
If it's not, this happens:
udhcpc: waiting 2000 seconds
udhcpc: entering listen mode: kernel
udhcpc: opening listen socket on *:68 wlan0
udhcpc: entering renew state
udhcpc: sending renew to 1.1.1.1
udhcpc: send: Network is unreachable
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 1.1.1.1 needs routing, this is fishy!
udhcpc: entering rebinding state
udhcpc: entering listen mode: raw
udhcpc: created raw socket
udhcpc: sending renew to 0.0.0.0
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ going to use broadcast
which is the desired behavior. Before the patch, packet to 1.1.1.1 was routed
over eth0 (!) and maybe even into Internet (!!!).

Some clients have a very short timeout for sending the DHCP
DISCOVER, shorter than the arpping timeout of 2000 milliseconds
that udhcpd uses by default.
This patch allows tweaking the timeout, or disabling of arpping
altogether, at the risk of handing out addresses which are
already in use.

Like d3092c99, this change adds support for the DHCP "path-prefix"
option, as defined in RFC 5071. We use the string identifer
"pxepathprefix".
Adding this option makes string parsing in the hook scripts simpler.

This change adds a definition for DHCP option 209. RFC 5071 defines code
209 as a configuration file for a PXE bootloader; this change uses
the string "pxeconffile" as its text identifier.

This change retains "or later" state! No licensing _changes_ here,
only form is adjusted (article, space between "GPL" and "v2" and so on).
