This was supposed to disallow addresses which are in use by
the DHCP server, and the code works fine when only dhcp-range
is defined per broadcast domain. It's confused when there are
multiple dhcp-ranges which are valid for a particular request.
When using PXE proxy-DHCP, dnsmasq supplies PXE information to
the client, which also talks to another "normal" DHCP server
for address allocation and similar. The normal DHCP server may
be on the local network, but it may also be remote, and accessed via
a DHCP relay. This change allows dnsmasq to act as both a
PXE proxy-DHCP server AND a DHCP relay for the same network.
A bug in gentoo linux https://bugs.gentoo.org/945183 reported that dnsmasq 2.90 fails to compile with GCC 15.
The issue is that while previous versions of GCC defaulted to the C17 standard and C23 could be selected with
"-std=c23" or "-std=gnu23", GCC 15 defaults to C23. In C23 incompatible pointer types are an error instead of
a warning, so the "int (*callback)()" incomplete prototypes cause errors.
For example, compiling dnsmasq 2.90 with gcc 14.2.1 and "-std=gnu23" fails with errors such as:
lease.c: In function `lease_find_interfaces':
lease.c:467:34: warning: passing argument 3 of `iface_enumerate' from incompatible pointer type [-Wincompatible-pointer-types[https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html#index-Wincompatible-pointer-types]]

This patch uses a typedef'ed union of pointer types to get type checking of the pointers. If that's too complicated,
another way might be to use (void *) casts to disable type checking.
Also, some of the IPv6 callbacks had "int preferred, int valid" and some had
"unsigned int preferred, unsigned int valid". This patch changes them all to "unsigned int"
so they're the same and to avoid casting "u32" to "int", eg:
u32 preferred = 0xffffffff;
callback(..., (int)preferred, ...)
Even if those cast values aren't used in the callback, casting u32 to "int" feels bad, especially if "int" is 32 bits.
The msg_controllen field passed to sendmsg is computed using the
CMSG_SPACE(), which is correct, but CMSG_SPACE() can include
padding bytes at the end of the passed structure if they are required
to align subsequent structures in the buffer. Make sure these
bytes are zeroed to avoid passing uninitiased memory to the kernel,
even though it will never touch these bytes.
Also tidy up the mashalling code in send_from to use pointers to
the structure being filled out, rather than a temporary copy which
then gets memcpy()'d into place. The DHCP sendmsg code has always
worked like this.
Thanks to Dominik Derigs for running Memcheck as submitting the
initial patch.
As defined in the C standard:
In all cases the argument is an int, the value of which shall
be representable as an unsigned char or shall equal the value
of the macro EOF. If the argument has any other value, the
behavior is undefined.
This is because they're designed to work with the int values returned
by getc or fgetc; they need extra work to handle a char value.
If EOF is -1 (as it almost always is), with 8-bit bytes, the allowed
inputs to the ctype(3) functions are:
{-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., 255}.
However, on platforms where char is signed, such as x86 with the
usual ABI, code like
char *arg = ...;
... isspace(*arg) ...
may pass in values in the range:
{-128, -127, -126, ..., -2, -1, 0, 1, ..., 127}.
This has two problems:
1. Inputs in the set {-128, -127, -126, ..., -2} are forbidden.
2. The non-EOF byte 0xff is conflated with the value EOF = -1, so
even though the input is not forbidden, it may give the wrong
answer.
Casting char to int first before passing the result to ctype(3)
doesn't help: inputs like -128 are unchanged by this cast. It is
necessary to cast char inputs to unsigned char first; you can then
cast to int if you like but there's no need because the functions
will always convert the argument to int by definition. So the above
fragment needs to be:
char *arg = ...;
... isspace((unsigned char)*arg) ...
This patch inserts unsigned char casts where necessary, and changes
int casts to unsigned char casts where the input is char.
I left alone int casts where the input is unsigned char already --
they're not immediately harmful, although they would have the effect
of suppressing some compiler warnings if the input is ever changed to
be char instead of unsigned char, so it might be better to remove
those casts too.
I also left alone calls where the input is int to begin with because
it came from getc; casting to unsigned char here would be wrong, of
course.
This change also removes a previous bug
where --dhcp-alternate-port would affect the port used
to relay _to_ as well as the port being listened on.
The new feature allows configuration to provide bug-for-bug
compatibility, if required. Thanks to Damian Kaczkowski
for the feature suggestion.
On machines with many interfaces, enumerating them
via netlink on each packet reciept is slow,
and unneccesary. All we need is the local address->interface
mapping, which can be cached in the relay structures.
Avoid offering the same address after a recieving a DECLINE message
to stop an infinite protocol loop. This has long been done in
default address allocation mode: this adds similar behaviour
when allocaing addresses consecutively.
Adds option to delay replying to DHCP packets by one or more seconds.
This provides a workaround for a PXE boot firmware implementation
that has a bug causing it to fail if it receives a (proxy) DHCP
reply instantly.
On Linux it looks up the exact receive time of the UDP packet with
the SIOCGSTAMP ioctl to prevent multiple delays if multiple packets
come in around the same time.

dhcp: set outbound interface via cmsg in unicast reply
If multiple routes to the same network exist, Linux blindly picks
the first interface (route) based on destination address, which might not be
the one we're actually offering leases. Rather than relying on this,
always set the interface for outgoing unicast DHCP packets.
because in the aliasing case, iface_index is changed from the index of
the interface on which the packet was received, to be the interface
index of the 'bridge' interface (where the DHCP context is expected to
be defined, and so needs to be looked up).
For the cmsg code that the cited commit added, we need the original
iface_index; so this commit saves that off before the aliasing code
can change it, as rcvd_iface_index, and then uses rcvd_iface_index
instead of iface_index for the cmsg code.
