@eelco sorry for the spam. I just realized I tagged the wrong person. |

After this update, an error update to the lease of the IP address occurs on the virtual server. |
interesting... seemed to pass locally |
after that there is nothing in the logs, and the server stops receiving the ip address |
This causes my dhcpcd to get stuck and use 100% cpu occasionally when switching networks. |
Some of our laptop users on master experienced similar issues. It would be nice to have a NixOS test for this issue but it doesn't seem to be reproducible, at least in the field. Shall we revert for now? |
@fpletz reverting sounds good, if the core dumps are an issue we can go back to 7.2.2 too |
I didn't seem to have any issues, but if it's effecting others then I'm' in favor of reverting |
Reverted in 23f3abd. |
I apologize if this inconvenienced anyone :( |
This might be related, I think it's the same problem or at least this change the reason. I have had a lot of problems lately with WiFi on nixos-unstable (and/or 19.09) and some (possibly the only problem was dhcpcd, but I think I had multiple issues and it was only one) of them were definitely related to dhcpcd. The logs I have are quite similar to the ones above. I've been watching on IRC and know of probably something like 6 or more people that have only recently had problems. In most of the cases disabling with I don't know if that's helpful but maybe it will help someone figure out what's going wrong. Or at least see how to disable it if they somehow end up getting it before the revert goes through or w/e. I can provide additional log files by request if that would be of use. |
It's being worked on in NetworkConfiguration/dhcpcd#11 |

I've been running this locally for a couple of days now with no problems.
It fixed an issue for me where dhcpcd was core dumping multiple times a day.
I ran the
nixos.tests.networking.scripted.macvlan.x86_64-linux
test specified in the comment and it passed for me.I don't know if there are important implications to upgrading this for other people so feedback is welcome.
