798d3a52 ZJS |
44 | <para>Network link configuration is performed by the |
45 | <command>net_setup_link</command> udev builtin.</para> | |
1ff28eae | 46 | |
798d3a52 | 47 | <para>The link files are read from the files located in the system |
12b42c76 | 48 | network directory <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/network</filename>, |
798d3a52 ZJS |
49 | the volatile runtime network directory |
50 | <filename>/run/systemd/network</filename>, and the local | |
51 | administration network directory | |
12b42c76 | 52 | <filename>/etc/systemd/network</filename>. Link files must have |
798d3a52 ZJS |
53 | the extension <filename>.link</filename>; other extensions are |
54 | ignored. All link files are collectively sorted and processed in | |
55 | lexical order, regardless of the directories in which they live. | |
56 | However, files with identical filenames replace each other. Files | |
57 | in <filename>/etc</filename> have the highest priority, files in | |
58 | <filename>/run</filename> take precedence over files with the same | |
12b42c76 | 59 | name in <filename>/usr/lib</filename>. This can be used to |
57e27ec0 ZJS |
60 | override a system-supplied link file with a local file if needed. |
61 | As a special case, an empty file (file size 0) or symlink with the | |
a8eaaee7 | 62 | same name pointing to <filename>/dev/null</filename> disables the |
57e27ec0 | 63 | configuration file entirely (it is "masked").</para> |
1ff28eae | 64 | |
798d3a52 ZJS |
65 | <para>The link file contains a <literal>[Match]</literal> section, |
66 | which determines if a given link file may be applied to a given | |
67 | device, as well as a <literal>[Link]</literal> section specifying | |
68 | how the device should be configured. The first (in lexical order) | |
69 | of the link files that matches a given device is applied. Note | |
70 | that a default file <filename>99-default.link</filename> is | |
1b934761 | 71 | shipped by the system. Any user-supplied |
798d3a52 ZJS |
72 | <filename>.link</filename> should hence have a lexically earlier |
73 | name to be considered at all.</para> | |

798d3a52 ZJS |
83 | <para>A link file is said to match a device if each of the entries |
84 | in the <literal>[Match]</literal> section matches, or if the | |
85 | section is empty. The following keys are accepted:</para> | |

341 | <para>Note that specifying a name that the kernel might use for another | |
342 | interface (for example <literal>eth0</literal>) is dangerous because the | |
343 | name assignment done by udev will race with the assignment done by the | |
344 | kernel, and only one interface may use the name. Depending on the order of | |
345 | operations, either udev or the kernel will win, making the naming | |
346 | unpredictable. It is best to use some different prefix, for example | |
347 | <literal>internal0</literal>/<literal>external0</literal> or | |
348 | <literal>lan0</literal>/<literal>lan1</literal>/<literal>lan3</literal>. | |
