Subject: [PATCH pve-network v4 07/20] sdn: dhcp: replace a stale dnsmasq reservation instead of dropping it
Date: Wed, 21 Oct 2026 10:44:32 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261021084445.462195-8-h.laimer@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261021084445.462195-1-h.laimer@proxmox.com>

A reservation rewrite dropped every line that no longer matched the
MAC cache and wrote nothing in its place. The guest behind such a
line was unknown to dnsmasq until its next start, so its requests
were ignored. The line is now replaced by the cache's current one.
Only a MAC the cache holds no address for is dropped.
