Lennart Poettering 5022f08a23 core,udev,networkd: add ConditionKernelVersion= 
This adds a simple condition/assert/match to the service manager, to
udev's .link handling and to networkd, for matching the kernel version
string.

In this version we only do fnmatch() based globbing, but we might want
to extend that to version comparisons later on, if we like, by slightly
extending the syntax with ">=", "<=", ">", "<" and "==" expressions.

<title>Description</title>
<para>Network link configuration is performed by the
<command>net_setup_link</command> udev builtin.</para>
<para>The link files are read from the files located in the system
network directory <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/network</filename>,
the volatile runtime network directory
<filename>/run/systemd/network</filename>, and the local
administration network directory
<filename>/etc/systemd/network</filename>. Link files must have
the extension <filename>.link</filename>; other extensions are
ignored. All link files are collectively sorted and processed in
lexical order, regardless of the directories in which they live.
However, files with identical filenames replace each other. Files
in <filename>/etc</filename> have the highest priority, files in
<filename>/run</filename> take precedence over files with the same
name in <filename>/usr/lib</filename>. This can be used to
override a system-supplied link file with a local file if needed.
As a special case, an empty file (file size 0) or symlink with the
same name pointing to <filename>/dev/null</filename> disables the
configuration file entirely (it is "masked").</para>
<para>The link file contains a <literal>[Match]</literal> section,
which determines if a given link file may be applied to a given
device, as well as a <literal>[Link]</literal> section specifying
how the device should be configured. The first (in lexical order)
of the link files that matches a given device is applied. Note
that a default file <filename>99-default.link</filename> is
shipped by the system. Any user-supplied
<filename>.link</filename> should hence have a lexically earlier
name to be considered at all.</para>
<para>See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>udevadm</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for diagnosing problems with <filename>.link</filename> files.</para>

<title>[Match] Section Options</title>
<para>A link file is said to match a device if each of the entries

<para>The policy by which the MAC address should be set. The

</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>persistent</literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>If the hardware has a persistent MAC address, as
most hardware should, and if it is used by the kernel,
nothing is done. Otherwise, a new MAC address is
generated which is guaranteed to be the same on every
boot for the given machine and the given device, but
which is otherwise random. This feature depends on ID_NET_NAME_*
properties to exist for the link. On hardware where these
properties are not set, the generation of a persistent MAC address
will fail.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>random</literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>If the kernel is using a random MAC address,
nothing is done. Otherwise, a new address is randomly
generated each time the device appears, typically at
boot. Either way, the random address will have the
<literal>unicast</literal> and
<literal>locally administered</literal> bits set.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>none</literal></term>
<listitem>

</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
</listitem>

<varlistentry>
<term><varname>MACAddress=</varname></term>

</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>NamePolicy=</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>An ordered, space-separated list of policies by which
the interface name should be set.
<literal>NamePolicy</literal> may be disabled by specifying
<literal>net.ifnames=0</literal> on the kernel command line.
Each of the policies may fail, and the first successful one
is used. The name is not set directly, but is exported to
udev as the property <literal>ID_NET_NAME</literal>, which
is, by default, used by a udev rule to set
<literal>NAME</literal>. If the name has already been set by
userspace, no renaming is performed. The available policies
are:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>kernel</literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>If the kernel claims that the name it has set
for a device is predictable, then no renaming is
performed.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>database</literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>The name is set based on entries in the udev's
Hardware Database with the key
<literal>ID_NET_NAME_FROM_DATABASE</literal>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><literal>onboard</literal></term>
<listitem>
<para>The name is set based on information given by
the firmware for on-board devices, as exported by the

<varlistentry>
<term><literal>path</literal></term>

<literal>ID_NET_NAME_PATH</literal>.</para>

<varlistentry>
<term><literal>mac</literal></term>
<listitem>

MAC address, as exported by the udev property
<literal>ID_NET_NAME_MAC</literal>.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><varname>Name=</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>The interface name to use in case all the
policies specified in
<varname>NamePolicy=</varname> fail, or in case
<varname>NamePolicy=</varname> is missing or
disabled.</para>
<para>Note that specifying a name that the kernel might use for another
interface (for example <literal>eth0</literal>) is dangerous because the
name assignment done by udev will race with the assignment done by the
kernel, and only one interface may use the name. Depending on the order of
operations, either udev or the kernel will win, making the naming
unpredictable. It is best to use some different prefix, for example
<literal>internal0</literal>/<literal>external0</literal> or
<literal>lan0</literal>/<literal>lan1</literal>/<literal>lan3</literal>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>

understood to the base of 1024.</para>
</listitem>

<varlistentry>
<term><varname>BitsPerSecond=</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>The speed to set for the device, the value is rounded
down to the nearest Mbps. The usual suffixes K, M, G, are

<term><varname>AutoNegotiation=</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>Enables or disables automatic negotiation of transmission parameters.
Autonegotiation is a procedure by which two connected ethernet devices choose
common transmission parameters, such as speed, duplex mode, and flow control.
Takes a boolean value. Unset by default, which means that the kernel default
will be used.</para>
<para>Note that if autonegotiation is enabled, speed and duplex settings are
read-only. If autonegotation is disabled, speed and duplex settings are writable
if the driver supports multiple link modes.</para>
