[Bug 1608450] Re: expose layer2, hwchecksumming, buffer_count network-hardware options

2016-10-04 Thread ChristianEhrhardt
Hi Martin,
thanks for explaining - I think the most important point I missed to consider 
before is:
"Also, note that netplan's primary design is to punt the actual work to 
networkd or NetworkManager"

If they have such functionality in NetworkManager/networkd it will be taken 
care of.
I'm not sure if there would be work to expose more in Netplan to instruct 
networkd to do so properly. But I didn't work to much with networkd on s390 up 
to now. So I'd leave that to IBM to tell us.

I'll keep the bug on incomplete and send the bug link to their
networking people for consideration.

2016-10-04 Thread Martin Pitt
I kept it as incomplete as "To tweak various things in sysfs, via chzdev
udev rules generator" is way too unspecific -- you are of course invited
and welcome to add this support yourself (happy to review patches), but
I cannot start implementing this on my side without a precise
description of what should be added.

Also, note that netplan's primary design is to punt the actual work to
networkd or NetworkManager, and it shouldn't actually grow functionality
by itself. It's fine to generate a couple of extra udev rules or
sysctl.d/ files, but the thing that it *definitively* cannot do is to
actually write/change things in /sys, /dev, or devices by itself.

While wishlist priority, reopening until we really "decided" to drop it.

Let me know if you still wait on something like further examples or
such, otherwise I'd keep it around until implemented or explicitly
dropped.

Yeah you are right - thanks for making it more specific in the title.

Xnox response is probably heading towards the right (then again more
generic) direction, quoting from there until he chimes in here:

"For a while I have been pondering to have a few s390x specific keys in
cloud-init / MaaS, e.g.:

chzdev_enable:
 - [600,1.0.0400]

cio_ignore:
 - [all]

Or some such. (chzdev creates additional rules to remove devices from
kernel ignore list too). But one should be able to pass arbitrary
key-value pairs too because One would do things like these too:

chzdev_enable:
  - 600:
portno: 1
level2: 0

To tweak various things in sysfs, via chzdev udev rules generator.

This is all s390x specific, for the OSA cards configuration as seen on
LPAR & z/VM (~= bare metal configurations)"
