            Bug ID: 15486
           Summary: raspberrypi3: eth0 configuration by ifplugd.action
                    script fails since 2023.02/busybox v1.36.0
           Product: buildroot
           Version: 2023.02
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

Target Milestone: ---

Network interface setup via ifplugd.action script fails since 2023.02.

The script tries to configure the interface via DHCP first. If this fails it applies some static settings.

/etc/ifplugd/ifplugd.action:
----------------------------
#!/bin/bash

if [ "$2" = 'up' ]; then

        ifup -v eth0 && ping -Ieth0 -c1 -W1 google.com && exit 0
        echo 'eth0 setup failed. applying static settings...'
        ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

elif [ "$2" = 'down' ]; then
ifdown -f eth0
fi
----------------------------

/etc/network/interfaces:
------------------------
iface eth0 inet dhcp
------------------------

udhcpc runs with modified options:

CONFIG_FEATURE_UDHCPC_ARPING=n CONFIG_IFUPDOWN_UDHCPC_CMD_OPTIONS="-R -n -O search"

Right after system startup, no network connection available yet, the network cable is plugged in. DHCP setup actually succeeds but for some reason DNS does not. This works smoothly in the 2022.11.x branch (busybox v1.35.0).

[Buildroot] [Bug 15486] raspberrypi3: eth0 configuration by ifplugd.action script fails since 2023.02/busybox v1.36.0

--- Comment #1 from [email protected] ---
After I modified the 'hosts' entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf

from

hosts: resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] files myhostname dns

to

hosts: resolve [SUCCESS=return] files myhostname dns

everything appears to work.
