RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
In output of `nmstatectl show`, there are two duplicated options:
group-forward-mask
group-fwd-mask
They are one thing, the latter doesn't show on nmstate of rhel 8 and rhel 9.1.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nmstate-2.2.3-2.el9.x86_64
nispor-1.2.9-1.el9.x86_64
NetworkManager-1.41.7-2.el9.x86_64
DISTRO=RHEL-9.2.0-20230102.0
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
echo "
interfaces:
- name: br_test1
type: linux-bridge
state: up
" | nmstatectl apply
nmstatectl show br_test1 | grep group
nmstatectl show br_test1 | sed 's/group-forward-mask:.*/group-forward-mask: 16384/' | nmstatectl apply
Actual results:
NmstateError: VerificationError: Verification failure: br_test1.interface.bridge.options.group-forward-mask desire '16384', current '0'
Expected results:
No failure, show only "group-forward-mask" in `nmstatectl show` ouput like before
Additional info:
If user mentions either "group-forward-mask" or "group-fwd-mask" in the desired state, it works fine. But when applying a full state roughly(like `nmstatectl show br_test1 | sed 's/group-forward-mask:.*/group-forward-mask: 16384/' | nmstatectl apply`), it is easy to ignore the rest option and get failed.
The `group-fwd-mask` is kernel option name used by CNV. The `group-forward-mask` is used by RHV and exists since version 1.0.
The `group-forward-mask` is just alias to `group-fwd-mask`.
User will get `ValueError` when desired different `group-fwd-mask` and `group-forward-mask`. For other valid case, they are all unified to `group-fwd-mask`.
