https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=191415 Bug ID: 191415 Summary: CARP password with "-" causes /etc/rc.d/netif to infinite loop Product: Base System Version: 10.0-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: Needs Triage Severity: Affects Some People Priority: Normal Component: conf Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: vivek@khera.org I just upgraded a system from freebsd 9.1 to 10.0-p6. It is a member of a CARP cluster, so I updated the configuration as follows: ifconfig_em0_alias0="inet 192.168.97.97/23 vhid 205 advskew 100 pass aaa-bbb" in my /etc/rc.conf file. Previously, it was on a cloned interface carp0. The em0 interface also has its own IP address for the machine. On reboot, the machine 'hangs' running /etc/rc.d/netif. Booting into single user and commenting out that one line lets it boot, albeit without the necessary CARP address activated. I played around with it, and I discovered that if I remove the "-" in the password, the netif script completes. However, it still does not apply the CARP address alias, but this PR is about the infinite loop, and likely I'm doing something wrong to set the address. Environment: System: FreeBSD redfish.kcilink.com 10.0-RELEASE-p6 FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE-p6 #2 r267868: Wed Jun 25 09:49:14 EDT 2014 vivek@lorax.kcilink.com:/u/lorax1/usr10/obj/u/lorax1/usr10/src/sys/KCI64 amd64 How-To-Repeat: add an alias similar to the one above, then run sh -x /etc/rc.d/netif restart to watch it go into an infinite loop. Fix: Do not use "-" in the CARP password of an ifconfig alias in /etc/rc.conf -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
