** Description changed: - tracking bug + Stable Release Update for netplan.io 1.0.1-1ubuntu2 to Noble. This version has many bug + fixes and one small new feature we want to make available to users of Ubuntu 24.04. netplan.io + has an SRU exception for backporting new versions with new features https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetplanUpdates + + + [Impact] + + This release contains both bug-fixes and new features and we would like to + make sure all of our supported customers have access to these improvements. + The notable ones are: + + * It now allows setting the SRIOV Embedded Switch mode with having to define Virtual Functions + + * Fix for aregression introduced by security fixes: + - don't escape all the non-ascii characters. The method used to escape control + characters was also escaping bytes that are not ASCII. + + * Fix for an old problem where utf-8 strings wouldn't be re-emitted as utf-8 when libnetplan + generated YAML from its state. + + [Test Plan] + The following development and SRU process was followed: + https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetplanUpdates + + Netplan contains an extensive integration test suite that is ran using + the SRU package for each releases. This test suite's results are available here: + http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/n/netplan.io + + A successful run is required before the proposed netplan package + can be let into -updates. + + The netplan team will be in charge of attaching the artifacts and console + output of the appropriate run to the bug. Netplan team members will not + mark ‘verification-done’ until this has happened. + + NOTE: there is one flaky autopkgtests that eventually fails only on ppc64el. + The test is TestNetworkManager.test_remove_virtual_interfaces and tests if a virtual network + interface is removed when the parameter --state is used. But the test *sometimes* fails to create the + virtual interface. It's consistently passing on all the other architectures. + + Testing netplan upgrade + + 1) Launch a LXD VM with Noble + + lxc launch ubuntu:noble noble-vm --vm + lxc shell noble-vm + + 2) Check netplan is working + + netplan apply + + netplan get + + 3) Add the PPA with the new package and upgrade your packages + + add-apt-repository ppa:danilogondolfo/netplan-sru + + apt update ; apt -y upgrade + + 4) Check netplan is still working + + netplan apply + + netplan get + + [Where problems could occur] + In order to mitigate the regression potential, the results of the + aforementioned integration tests are attached to this bug. + + <TODO: attach test artifacts for every SRU release, not a link as links + expire> + + This is not a big release and is available on Oracular for some time now without any concerning issues reported. + The wait-online related changes and security fixes were already present in Noble via distro patches. + + As usual, any backwards compatibility issue that prevents the new netplan to parse existing YAML files would leave + the system without networking configuration after a reboot. + + [Other Info] + + [Changelog] + + * Backport netplan.io 1.0.1-1ubuntu2 to 24.04 (LP: #2074197): + - sriov: accept setting the eswitch mode without VFs (LP: 2020409) + - cli/sriov: refactoring + - tests: use proper 0o600 file permissions in more places + - doc: Adding missing 'watchfiles' dependency for Sphinx + - doc: Minor fixes in lang. and mark-up in YAML reference + - doc: Tutorial reorg & lang. + formatting improvements + - networkd: add wait-online enumeration utils + - generate: enable systemd-networkd-wait-online for non-optional interfaces + - CLI:utils: Do not ask for daemon-reload password interactively + - CLI:generate: call daemon-reload after (re-)generating services + - wait-online: Do not block on loopback interface + - generate: Do not touch wait-online, if we don't have any networkd NetDefs + - wait-online: wait for existing interfaces only and downgrade operational + state for interfaces without IP configuration + - wait-online: account for DHCPv4/v6 addresses + - wait-online: do not require virtual devices to be created already + - wait-online: recognize that bridge/bond members will never gain + link-local addresses + - networkd:apply: Drop handling of legacy wpa@ instance units + - wait-online: disabled wait-online for stable 1.0 + - test:integration: Try to improve test flakyness + - autopkgtest: More fixes for flaky 'ethernets' test + - Increase some test timeouts to account for slow (riscv64) buildds + SECURITY UPDATE: + - libnetplan: use more restrictive file permissions + (Closes: #1072789, LP: 2065738, LP: 1987842) + - CVE-2022-4968 + - libnetplan: escape control characters + - backends: escape file paths + - backends: escape semicolons in service units (LP: 2066258) + Bug fixes: + - cli: Fix logging setup when python-rich is not present + - CI: fix DebCI case for no-change rebuilds + - CI: adopt autopkgtest for 1.0-1 on 22.04 + - doc: Update README, move CODE_OF_CONDUCT + - doc: fix en_GB spelling + - CI: adopt snapd.patch for autopkgtest SRU (LP: 2051939) + - parse-nm: add a workaround for the DoT DNS option (LP: 2055148) + - CI: Install netplan-ci PPA + - parse: don't remove datalist items during iteration + - ATTN: parse/bonds: handle same primary in multiple bonds + - parse/bonds: don't fail on primary reassignment + - cli/sriov: set eswitch regardless of pcidev.vfs + - doc: Fix wrong bonds.parameters.mode syntax in example + - parse: fix redefinition of gateway(4|6) + - doc:tutorial: fix whitespace formatting + - util: fix potential NULL pointer assert + - python: elements of __all__ must be strings + - tests: fix diff test with iproute2 6.8 + - cli/generate: skip daemon_reload with --mapping + - test: cleanup after wait_online test to fix DebCI + - CI: fork spread to get !179 fixes + - doc: Fix netplan-generate.md formatting !483 + - emitter: allow unicode characters in the emitter (LP: 2071652) + - parse: do not escape all non-ascii bytes + * d/t/control: 'diff' autopkgtest is not flaky anymore + * d/patches: Drop patches, applied upstream + * d/p/0002-CLI-apply-call-udevadm-trigger-using-action-add-Clos.patch: + Update 'udevadm trigger' patch, using MOVE action (LP: 2071363) + * d/p/0003-Revert-wait-online-disabled-wait-online-for-stable-1.patch: + Fix wait-online via s-n-wait-online.service.d/10-netplan. + * debian/netplan-generator.postinst: Add a postinst maintainer script to call + the generator, so the file permissions fixes will be applied automatically. + * d/libnetplan1.symbols: + - Update for new internal wait-online symbol + - Update for new (private) symbol + * d/copyright: Update for 2024
