>Description:
The automounter (amd) does not properly scan all network interfaces on laptop machines. If you have a conditional mount setting that should only work when your laptop is on a your home network and you are using a PCMCIA network card these mounts will fail.
>How-To-Repeat:
The wire-test program in FreeBSD will attempt to tell you what network you are on using the same code that amd used to determine if the mount you are trying is valid:
*** Incorrect operation ***
$ wire-test
No networks.
My IP address is 0xc0a80105.
NFS Version and protocol tests to host "localhost"...
testing vers=2, proto="udp" -> failed!
testing vers=3, proto="udp" -> failed!
testing vers=2, proto="tcp" -> failed!
testing vers=3, proto="tcp" -> failed!
$ ifconfig ed0
ed0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX%ed0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x9
inet 192.168.1.5 netmask 0xfffffe00 broadcast 192.168.1.255

$

$ /usr/obj/usr/src/usr.sbin/amd/wire-test/wire-test

$
Notice that in the second case wire-test discovered that it was on example-net.
>Fix:
The problem exists in contrib/amd/libamu/wire.c. This code uses the SIOCGIFCONF ioctl to get a list of active network addresses. The SIOCGIFCONF call is limited though and on laptops only report built in (not pcmcia or usb) interfaces. The correct behaviour can be gotten by using the getifaddrs() library call. Code to do this is already in amd but it's turned off in config.h. The following patch turns it on.
