Rewrite the netlink handling code to use libmnl. The size cost is very small, and it is hard to do netlink completely correctly as it is poorly documented. 2011-07-02 01:34:50 -04:00			`#ifndef NK_NETLINK_H_`

Remove ifsPrevState and set non-infinite timeout on a send error. We instead check carrier status as needed. This approach is more robust. For a simple example, imagine link state changes that happen while the machine is suspended. 2017-01-12 06:05:00 -05:00			`#include <stdbool.h>`
Make sure that the netlink socket will never block after program initialization. Fetching if/address/index/mac mappings is done only once at program init, so it is done synchronously as an exception to this rule. Rewrite the netlink handling. Now uses NIH code that should be safe, small, and correct. No external deps FTW. 2011-07-03 17:30:55 -04:00			`#include <linux/rtnetlink.h>`

Only bring down the interface at startup time if it is not already up and running. ndhc does its job entirely with raw sockets before a lease is established, so it will work just fine, and this change allows for the dhcp client to be re-run without causing downtime on an interface. 2011-07-02 04:58:58 -04:00			`enum {`

Replace mostly obsolete -[static 1] with reliable old *-. This notation originally had the sole advantage of implying that the pointer was non-NULL, but it has seen little use and now clang presents warnings about it in certain contexts. 2022-01-11 22:35:19 -05:00			`int nl_event_get(struct client_state_t *cs);`
Functions don't need explicit extern linkage in headers in C99, as it is the default. Standardize on leaving out the extern keyword as it is less clutter. 2014-03-17 22:10:58 -04:00			`int nl_getifdata(void);`
