Description

On a system with five interfaces configured, I have CARP VIPs on two of them (vtnet0, vtnet1) and yet ifconfig -a prints out CARP information on vtnet0 through vtnet4. It appears to be repeating the last printed value from an interface with a VIP. Running ifconfig <if> individually, such as ifconfig vtnet4, does not print the erroneous information.

Actions #1

Updated by Jim Pingle about 1 year ago

Just to note, this only happens on 23.05 snapshots so it is likely related to unicast CARP changes.

Updated by Kristof Provost about 1 year ago

  • Status changed from New to Feedback
  • % Done changed from 0 to 100

The fix has been pushed upstream and merged into our branched. It'll be in the next snapshots.

The issue was that we failed to clear the data structure passed to libifconfig, so if there was no data from the kernel we'd repeat the data from the previous interface. Clearing the input data structure before making the call to the kernel fixes things.

Actions #3

  • Status changed from Feedback to Resolved

This is fixed on current snapshots. CARP info is only printed for interfaces which actually contain CARP VIPs now.
