Description

After pressing the Add button, actually the new gateway is not created.
It uses AJAX to system_gateways_edit but the code there now expects $_POST['save'] to be set.

Hello,

I have tested both IPv4 and IPv6 PR corrections running on fresh "pfSense-CE-2.4.0-BETA-amd64-20170623-1439.iso" install in Virtualbox on amd64.

I used the IP examples from https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=128489.0 with 200.225.216.153/29 and GW 200.225.216.158 for IPv4
and my own personal IPv6 through TUNNELBROKER. Both gateways was added successfully to the Routing page and was set as defaultgw.
Also verified with "netstat -rn" that they are in fact default gw in the system.

HOWEVER, I had a small issue with a crash seen after adding the IPv4, which was pushed to developers through GUI.
Have repeated it twice. I also seen with IPv6.

In my opinion, I think the PR (the ajax update) that has been supplied for IPv4 and IPv6 seems to work OK so
I think this ticket could be put to OK in that sense HOWEVER, a new #7659 has been created for the program
crash caused by defining IPv4 incl. gateway. Seems like the data in "$gateway_settings4" or "$gateway_settings6"
that is sent to function "save_gateway" in gw.inc is not equal to what it expects.

The error is as follows:
amd64 11.0-RELEASE-p10
FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p10 #141 b9f3af6b8a6(RELENG_2_4): Fri Jun 23 14:46:52 CDT 2017 :/builder/ce/tmp/obj/builder/ce/tmp/FreeBSD-src/sys/pfSense
Crash report details:
PHP Errors:
[24-Jun-2017 16:20:30 Europe/Stockholm] PHP Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /etc/inc/gwlb.inc on line 1739

No FreeBSD crash data found.

The coding in gw.inc where the error occurs.

GW.INC
PHP Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /etc/inc/gwlb.inc on line 1739
(the foreach row)

if ($gateway_settings['defaultgw']  "yes" || $gateway_settings['defaultgw']  "on") {
$i = 0;
/* remove the default gateway bits for all gateways with the same address family */
foreach ($a_gateway_item as $gw) {
if ($gateway['ipprotocol'] == $gw['ipprotocol']) {
unset($config['gateways']['gateway_item'][$i]['defaultgw']);
if ($gw['interface'] != $gateway_settings['interface'] && $gw['defaultgw']) {
$reloadif = $gw['interface'];
}
}
$i++;
}
$gateway['defaultgw'] = true;
}

INTERFACES.PHP
PHP 2. save_gateway() /usr/local/www/interfaces.php:1473

if ($_POST['gatewayip4']) {
save_gateway($gateway_settings4);
}

The data in interfaces for "$gatewayip4" is the following in interfaces.php

if ($_POST['gatewayip4']) {
// The user wants to add an IPv4 gateway - validate the settings
$gateway_settings4 = array();
$gateway_settings4['name'] = $_POST['gatewayname4'];
$gateway_settings4['interface'] = $_POST['if'];
$gateway_settings4['gateway'] = $_POST['gatewayip4'];
$gateway_settings4['descr'] = $_POST['gatewaydescr4'];
$gateway_settings4['defaultgw'] = $_POST['defaultgw4'];

Problem (crash) seems to happen every time you save the settings for IPv4 but also on IPv6 (row 1477 in "interfaces.php").

As mentioned by Philip Davis in #7659 the fix for the crash has now been implemented in https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/pull/3764
and I have now verified this working OK with 2.4.0-BETA (amd64) built on Wed Jun 28 16:02:43 CDT 2017.

As I previously wrote:
"In my opinion, I think the PR (the ajax update) that has been supplied for IPv4 and IPv6 seems to work OK so I think this ticket could be put to OK."

I think this has been fixed and this ticket can be closed unless someone else has any objections!?
