[Bug 1814012] Re: netplan type wifis needs a device option

2019-04-20 Thread Gordon Harris
Here's one (e.g. my) case:

Asus AC1200 USB-AC53 Nano wifi adapter.  No linux driver available from
the manufacturer.  But there are open-source drivers available that work
well, but that require the -D parameter in order to be able to use
wpa_supplicant.

Quoting https://github.com/jeremyb31/rtl8822bu/blob/master/README.md

NOTES
This driver allows use of wpa_supplicant by using the nl80211 driver 
wpa_supplicant -Dnl80211

Re range of possible values for -D option:

>From man wpa_supplicant:

AVAILABLE DRIVERS
   A  summary  of available driver backends is below. Support for each of 
the driver backends is 
   chosen at wpa_supplicant compile time. For a list of supported driver 
backends that may be used
   with the -D option on your system, refer to the help output of 
wpa_supplicant (wpa_supplicant -h).

   wext   Linux wireless extensions (generic).

   wired  wpa_supplicant wired Ethernet driver

   roboswitch
  wpa_supplicant Broadcom switch driver

   bsdBSD 802.11 support (Atheros, etc.).

   ndis   Windows NDIS driver.

from wpa_supplicant --help on my system:

drivers:
  nl80211 = Linux nl80211/cfg80211
  wext = Linux wireless extensions (generic)
  wired = Wired Ethernet driver
  none = no driver (RADIUS server/WPS ER)


** Description changed:

  wpa_supplicant to successfully associate with an AP.

+ The netplan yaml spec doesn't currently support an optional driver
  property for the wifis type.
  
  For instance, here's my 01-netcfg.yaml:
  
  network:
-   version: 2
-   renderer: networkd
-   ethernets:
- ens32:
-   dhcp4: no
-   dhcp6: no
-   addresses: [192.168.0.222/24]
-   gateway4: 192.168.0.1
-   nameservers:
- addresses: [8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4]
-   wifis:
- wlx4cedfb37602e:
-   optional: true
-   dhcp4: no
-   dhcp6: no
-   addresses: [192.168.1.222/24]
-   access-points:
- "myssid":
-   password: "mywpapsk"

+   password: "mywpapsk"
  
  This isn't currently enough to get the wifi interface to associate.  I
  have to hand-edit:
  
  /run/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/netplan-
  wpa@wlx4cedfb37602e.service

  [Service]
  Type=simple
  ExecStart=/sbin/wpa_supplicant -c /run/netplan/wpa-%I.conf -i%I -Dnl80211
  
  Once that edit has been made and systemctl daemon-reload run, the wifi
  interface associates.
  
  It would be nice if netplan included a..
  
-   device: "devicename"
+   driver: "drivername"
  
- ..option for the yaml file that would add the -Ddevicename to the unit
+ ..option for the yaml file that would add the -Ddrivername to the unit

[Bug 1697938] [NEW] vlan_1.9-3.2ubuntu1.16.04.3_amd64 update deletes all interfaces except lo

2017-06-14 Thread Gordon Harris
Public bug reported:

Ran apt-get dist-upgrade this morning.  The vlan package was updated to
vlan_1.9-3.2ubuntu1.16.04.3_amd64.  Rebooted and now /sys/class/net
contains only the lo device.  My 16.04 server is now cut off from my
network.
