Linux 6.13 Released

"Nothing horrible or unexpected happened last week," Linux Torvalds posted tonight on the Linux kernel mailing list, "so I've tagged and pushed out the final 6.13 release." Phoronix says the release has "plenty of fine features": Linux 6.13 comes with the introduction of the AMD 3D V-Cache Optimizer driver for benefiting multi-CCD Ryzen X3D processors. The new AMD EPYC 9005 "Turin" server processors will now default to AMD P-State rather than ACPI CPUFreq for better power efficiency.... Linux 6.13 also brings more Rust programming language infrastructure and more. Phoronix notes that Linux 6.13 also brings "the start of Intel Xe3 graphics bring-up, support for many older (pre-M1) Apple devices like numerous iPads and iPhones, NVMe 2.1 specification support, and AutoFDO and Propeller optimization support when compiling the Linux kernel with the LLVM Clang compiler." And some lucky Linux kernel developers will also be getting a guitar pedal soldered by Linus Torvalds himself, thanks to a generous offer he announced a week ago: For _me_ a traditional holiday activity tends to be a LEGO build or two, since that's often part of the presents... But in addition to the LEGO builds, this year I also ended up doing a number of guitar pedal kit builds ("LEGO for grown-ups with a soldering iron"). Not because I play guitar, but because I enjoy the tinkering, and the guitar pedals actually do something and are the right kind of "not very complex, but not some 5-minute 555 LED blinking thing"... [S]ince I don't actually have any _use_ for the resulting pedals (I've already foisted off a few only unsuspecting victims^Hfriends), I decided that I'm going to see if some hapless kernel developer would want one.... as an admittedly pretty weak excuse to keep buying and building kits... "It may be worth noting that while I've had good success so far, I'm a software person with a soldering iron. You have been warned... [Y]ou should set your expectations along the lines of 'quality kit built by a SW person who doesn't know one end of a guitar from the other.'"

How to Configure Network Interfaces with Netplan on Ubuntu

How to Configure Network Interfaces with Netplan on Ubuntu
by George Whittaker

Netplan is a modern network configuration tool introduced in Ubuntu 17.10 and later adopted as the default for managing network interfaces in Ubuntu 18.04 and beyond. With its YAML-based configuration files, Netplan simplifies the process of managing complex network setups, providing a seamless interface to underlying tools like systemd-networkd and NetworkManager.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process of configuring network interfaces using Netplan, from understanding its core concepts to troubleshooting potential issues. By the end, you’ll be equipped to handle basic and advanced network configurations on Ubuntu systems.

Understanding Netplan

Netplan serves as a unified tool for network configuration, allowing administrators to manage networks using declarative YAML files. These configurations are applied by renderers like:

  • systemd-networkd: Ideal for server environments.

  • NetworkManager: Commonly used in desktop setups.

The key benefits of Netplan include:

  1. Simplicity: YAML-based syntax reduces complexity.

  2. Consistency: A single configuration file for all interfaces.

  3. Flexibility: Supports both simple and advanced networking scenarios like VLANs and bridges.

Prerequisites

Before diving into Netplan, ensure you have the following:

  • A supported Ubuntu system (18.04 or later).

  • Administrative privileges (sudo access).

  • Basic knowledge of network interfaces and YAML syntax.

Locating Netplan Configuration Files

Netplan configuration files are stored in /etc/netplan/. These files typically end with the .yaml extension and may include filenames like 01-netcfg.yaml or 50-cloud-init.yaml.

Important Tips:

  • Backup existing configurations: Before making changes, create a backup with the command:

    sudo cp /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml.bak

  • YAML Syntax Rules: YAML is indentation-sensitive. Always use spaces (not tabs) for indentation.

Configuring Network Interfaces with Netplan

Here’s how you can configure different types of network interfaces using Netplan.

Step 1: Identify Network Interfaces

Before modifying configurations, identify available network interfaces using:
