@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezarius riotbib: if https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/224635 is merged, we need to write some fancy "migration documentation" to explain how to turn classical dhcpd config into Kea config to provide a non extreme bumpy ride 11:43:00

or dnsmasq; but I'm not sure we do need this in 23.05 😛
everyone is welcome to write dnsmasq docs for transitioning from dhcpd, I won't advise it :P

@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátUpstream seems to have some "migration assistant": https://blog.apnic.net/2020/03/06/how-to-getting-started-with-kea-dhcp-for-ipv4-ipv6/ (but I won't touch DHCP)11:49:27

IMO the migration is non-trivial and idk what to tell anyone except for "read the kea docs and try to write a configuration that does something similar enough to what your dhcp config did".
legacy dhcp config was very unstructured. you could just litter the config with ifs and have random control flow.

I tried using that. It didn't like my config.

do you estimate there are a lot of people with non trivial dhcp config out there?

@andreas.schraegle:helsinki-systems.de@andreas.schraegle:helsinki-systems.deIt's one of those softwares. If you're running it, you're probably going to doing something cursed with it, at some point.12:26:36
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusI'd argue that I see two types of people: people with ~reasonable/simple dhcp configs and people with complicated dhcp configs For the first, I want to provide maximum guidance and not too much bumpy ride as it should be possible to replace on the shelf configurations (like what my baremetal provider is providing me for DHCP-PD) For the second, I am like: hm well yes put some efforts :p12:27:04
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaat least if you are using it for more than dhcp on your home router 😄12:27:07
@hexa:lossy.networkhexalike weird pxeboot and classification setups that don't translate easily12:27:22
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaso the reasonable thing would be to give people a heads-up before crushing their dreams12:27:59
@hexa:lossy.networkhexamark the thing as knownVulnerable for 23.0512:28:11
@hexa:lossy.networkhexasomewhat runs counter to what I said for the client and cloud-init 😛12:28:35

mark the thing as knownVulnerable for 23.05
"ISC dhcpd has reached its end of life and is scheduled for removal before NixOS 23.11. Migrate to kea, systemd-networkd or dnsmasq"
12:29:28
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátYes, adding some period of marked-as-broken (or vulnerable, etc.) can help people by letting them know before they really have to abandon it.12:29:27

ajs124 turned their PR into a draft 10 minutes after you highlighting it to me… may I expect it to be merged for the upcoming release? (just asking to be sure)
22:00:03
@hexa:lossy.networkhexathe discussion on tuesday is highly relevant22:02:22
@hexa:lossy.networkhexawe won't remove dhcpd for 23.0522:02:27
@riotbib:nixos.devriotbibah sorry, missed that, thanks a lot!22:03:05
@riotbib:nixos.devriotbib brief question: is one PR for all edits of rl-2305.section.md that I keep on pushing to the best, or multiple PRs for all the (mostly small) changes? I guess the answer is clear (one PR), just asking to be sure 22:05:17
@hexa:lossy.networkhexawhatever works for you22:06:08
