[test case] $ cat /etc/systemd/network/10-ens3.network [Match] Name=ens3 [Network] DHCP=yes set hostname to 64-char name, e.g.: $ sudo hostnamectl set-hostname a123456789b123456789c123456789d123456789e123456789f123456789g123 restart networkd: $ sudo systemctl restart systemd-networkd check logs: root@a123456789b123456789c123456789d123456789e123456789f123456789g123:~# journalctl -b -u systemd-networkd --no-pager | grep 'DHCP error' May 06 19:01:30 a123456789b123456789c123456789d123456789e123456789f123456789g123 systemd-networkd[737]: ens3: DHCP error: Client failed: Invalid argument [regression potential] Any regression would likely result in failure configuring/processing dhcpv4 server response, or rejection from the dhcpv4 server. [scope] this is fixed by commit 9740eae694e93b06658ff3b3045b22b591561e7c which is included in Bionic and later. This is needed only for Xenial. [other info] this is a follow on to bug 1862232, which corrected sd-dhcp-client.c to continue networkd dhcp even if the hostname is invalid, however the older code in Xenial doesn't correctly detect the invalid hostname, so this additional patch is needed.
