The network interface configuration is taking some delay to update in DHCP case

The network interface configuration is taking some delay to update in DHCP case

[Karunakar P]

Hi All,

  I've been facing an issue with IP4 SERVICE Default interface value.



[Reproduction Steps]
1.Add trace messages to print the values of ip and SubnetMask in Ip4FormExtractConfig() -> Ip4Config2ConvertConfigNvDataToIfrNvData()

EFI_STATUS
Ip4Config2ConvertConfigNvDataToIfrNvData (
IN     IP4_CONFIG2_INSTANCE       *Instance,
IN OUT IP4_CONFIG2_IFR_NVDATA     *IfrNvData
)
{
...
IpSb = IP4_SERVICE_FROM_IP4_CONFIG2_INSTANCE (Instance);

+ Print value of IpSb->DefaultInterface->Ip
+ Print value of IpSb->DefaultInterface->SubnetMask

...
}
2. Assign ip to SUT using IPv4 Network Configuration page.
   ( Enable Configured and Enable DHCP and Save Changes and Exit )
3. reset the SUT once IP assigns

[Observation]

1.       On restart, Ip4FormExtractConfig() gets call and prints Ip and SubnetMask values are 0.

2.       If add some delay before printing those values , then getting the proper values
                                +  add Delay some delay
+ Print value of IpSb->DefaultInterface->Ip

+ Print value of IpSb->DefaultInterface->SubnetMask

3.       In the case of Static Ip , printing proper values without giving any delay.


Could you please help in where it is taking time to update the values in DHCP case.

Thanks,
Karunakar.

Re: The network interface configuration is taking some delay to update in DHCP case

Hi Karunakar,

With your reproduction Step 2, DHCP process will be triggered.  Ip and SubnetMask in IP service default interface will also be updated once the DHCP process finished. For detailed, you can check the Ip4Config2OnDhcp4Complete -> Ip4Config2SetDefaultIf -> Ip4Config2SetDefaultAddr -> Ip4SetAddress. 

So, before DHCP finished,  Ip and SubnetMask should be always zero.  Your observed value may be printed during DHCP process.

I suggest you change your print code as below:

 EFI_STATUS
Ip4Config2ConvertConfigNvDataToIfrNvData (
IN     IP4_CONFIG2_INSTANCE       *Instance,
IN OUT IP4_CONFIG2_IFR_NVDATA     *IfrNvData
)
{
...
IpSb = IP4_SERVICE_FROM_IP4_CONFIG2_INSTANCE (Instance);

  if (IpSb->DefaultInterface->Configured) {
    IfrNvData->Configure = 1;
  } else {
    IfrNvData->Configure = 0;
    goto Exit;
  }

+ Print value of IpSb->DefaultInterface->Ip
+ Print value of IpSb->DefaultInterface->SubnetMask

...
}

Above print can ensure the  Ip and SubnetMask is printed after DHCP finished.

Thanks,
Jiaxin

Re: The network interface configuration is taking some delay to update in DHCP case

[Karunakar P]

Hi Jiaxin,

I've found something related to this.

Ip4Config2OnDhcp4Complete()
Callback function when DHCP process finished. It will save the retrieved IP configure parameter from DHCP to the NVRam. Set the station address, subnetmask and gateway address for the default interface.
And this function is taking some delay to Set the Address. If we add some delay by that time Ip4Config2OnDhcp4Complete() was done and printing the values are correct. If print the values before this function we are getting as 0. 

Could you please suggest anything that we can overcome this delay or we can Signal this event before ExtractConfig called.  

Thanks,
Karunakar.

Hi Jiaxin,

Thank you very much for your instant reply. I changed the print statements.

EFI_STATUS
Ip4Config2ConvertConfigNvDataToIfrNvData (
IN     IP4_CONFIG2_INSTANCE       *Instance,
IN OUT IP4_CONFIG2_IFR_NVDATA     *IfrNvData

  if (IpSb->DefaultInterface->Configured) {

  } else {
    IfrNvData->Configure = 0;
    goto Exit;
  }

[Observation]
1.  IpSb->DefaultInterface->Configured itself getting as 0.

Re: The network interface configuration is taking some delay to update in DHCP case

[Wu, Jiaxin]

Hi Karunakar,

May I ask why you want to signal dhcp event before ExtractConfig? In my opinion, it doesn't matter to call ExtractConfig even dhcp is not finished.

You know the dhcp MAY be failure, then event will never be called.

Thanks,
Jiaxin

Re: The network interface configuration is taking some delay to update in DHCP case

[Karunakar P]

Hi Jiaxin,

In the case of Ip4FormExtractConfig() we are using 'IpSb->DefaultInterface->Configured' ,which is updated in Ip4Config2OnDhcp4Complete().
So if we call Extractconfig before this event getting Configured value as 0 and in setup Configured is disabled which is false.

Thanks,
karunakar

Re: The network interface configuration is taking some delay to update in DHCP case

[Wu, Jiaxin]

Hi Karunakar,



Extractconfig is used to request the current configuration and update it to the IFR data. It reflects the current configuration status. we can't assume the default interface must be configured.



Thanks,

Jiaxin
