Even if different preference is specified, the kernel merges multiple
routes with the same preference. This is problematic when a network has
multiple routers.
Fixes#25138.
New directive `NetLabel=` provides a method for integrating static and dynamic
network configuration into Linux NetLabel subsystem rules, used by Linux
Security Modules (LSMs) for network access control. The label, with suitable
LSM rules, can be used to control connectivity of (for example) a service with
peers in the local network. At least with SELinux, only the ingress can be
controlled but not egress. The benefit of using this setting is that it may be
possible to apply interface independent part of NetLabel configuration at very
early stage of system boot sequence, at the time when the network interfaces
are not available yet, with netlabelctl(8), and the per-interface configuration
with systemd-networkd once the interfaces appear later. Currently this feature
is only implemented for SELinux.
The option expects a single NetLabel label. The label must conform to lexical
restrictions of LSM labels. When an interface is configured with IP addresses,
the addresses and subnetwork masks will be appended to the NetLabel Fallback
Peer Labeling rules. They will be removed when the interface is
deconfigured. Failures to manage the labels will be ignored.
Example:
```
[DHCPv4]
NetLabel=system_u:object_r:localnet_peer_t:s0
```
With the above rules for interface `eth0`, when the interface is configured with
an IPv4 address of 10.0.0.123/8, `systemd-networkd` performs the equivalent of
`netlabelctl` operation
```
$ sudo netlabelctl unlbl add interface eth0 address:10.0.0.0/8 label:system_u:object_r:localnet_peer_t:s0
```
Result:
```
$ sudo netlabelctl -p unlbl list
...
interface: eth0
address: 10.0.0.0/8
label: "system_u:object_r:localnet_peer_t:s0"
...
```
Previous implementation of disabling rapid commit was broken, and
dropped by 308d01f3c4.
Let's re-introduce the option in the correct way, as some servers seem
to return borked message when the solicit message contain the rapid
commit option.
Closes#24065.
This reverts PR #23269 and its follow-up commit. Especially,
2299b1cae3 (partially), and
3cf63830ac.
The PR was merged without final approval, and has several issues:
- The NetLabel for static addresses are not assigned, as labels are
stored in the Address objects managed by Network, instead of Link.
- If NetLabel is specified for a static address, then the address
section will be invalid and the address will not be configured,
- It should be implemented with Request object,
- There is no test about the feature.
This reverts PR #22587 and its follow-up commit. More specifically,

51bb9076ab8c050bebb64db5035852385accda35.
The PR was merged without final approval, and has several issues:
- OSS fuzz reported issues in the conf parser,
- It calls synchrnous netlink call, it should not be especially in PID1,
- The importance of NFTSet for CGroup and DynamicUser may be
questionable, at least, there was no justification PID1 should support
it.
- For networkd, it should be implemented with Request object,
- There is no test for the feature.

New directives `NFTSet=`, `IPv4NFTSet=` and `IPv6NFTSet=` provide a method for
integrating configuration of dynamic networks into firewall rules with NFT
sets.
/etc/systemd/network/eth.network
```
[DHCPv4]
...
NFTSet=netdev:filter:eth_ipv4_address
```
```
table netdev filter {
set eth_ipv4_address {
type ipv4_addr
flags interval
}
chain eth_ingress {
type filter hook ingress device "eth0" priority filter; policy drop;
ip saddr != @eth_ipv4_address drop
accept
}
}
```
```
sudo nft list set netdev filter eth_ipv4_address
table netdev filter {
set eth_ipv4_address {
type ipv4_addr
flags interval
elements = { 10.0.0.0/24 }

New directive `NetLabel=` provides a method for integrating dynamic network
configuration into Linux NetLabel subsystem rules, used by Linux security
modules (LSMs) for network access control. The option expects a whitespace
separated list of NetLabel labels. The labels must conform to lexical

"Link-local" and "link local" are used throughout man pages and program
output, with the former used far more than the latter. This commit makes
it consistent throughout the project.
Add the "Isolated" parameter in the *.network file, e.g.,
[Bridge]
Isolated=true|false
When the Isolated parameter is true, traffic coming out of this port
will only be forward to other ports whose Isolated parameter is false.
When Isolated is not specified, the port uses the kernel default
setting (false).
The "Isolated" parameter was introduced in Linux 4.19.
See man bridge(8) for more details.
But even though the kernel and bridge/iproute2 recognize the "Isolated"
parameter, systemd-networkd did not have a way to set it.
