https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=291143 Bug ID: 291143 Summary: jib script should allow adding with (.) in interface names Product: Base System Version: Unspecified Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: tschetter.victor@gmail.com Jib is a script located at /usr/share/examples/jail/jib that aids in adding epairs for use with jails. It has the limitation of not allowing interfaces such as “em0.20” to be used. Trying to run “jib addm test em0.20” will result in a failure due to the following lines of code in the (derive_mac) function. if [ ! "$__mac_num" ]; then eval __mac_num=\${_${iface}_num:--1} __mac_num=$(( $__mac_num + 1 )) eval _${iface}_num=\$__mac_num fi Obviously there may not be dots (.) in a variable, but in this case iface=em0.20 A fix can be the following, where we sanitize the interface name by replacing the (.) with a (_) if [ ! "$__mac_num" ]; then __iface_sani="$(echo ${iface} | sed 's/./_/g')" eval __mac_num=\${_${__iface_sani}_num:--1} __mac_num=$(( $__mac_num + 1 )) eval _${__iface_sani}_num=\$__mac_num fi -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
