After upgrading a server from Opensuse 13.2 -> Leap 42.1, I'm seeing very long boot time, in addition to other symptoms. I'm starting to troubleshoot ...

checking, on this system

lsb_release -rd Description: openSUSE Leap 42.1 (x86_64) Release: 42.1 uname -ra Linux xensvr 4.3.0-6.g6b3b033-xen #1 SMP Tue Nov 17 09:14:21 UTC 2015 (6b3b033) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux rpm -qa | grep -i wicked | sort libwicked-0-6-0.6.27-1.1.x86_64 wicked-0.6.27-1.1.x86_64 wicked-service-0.6.27-1.1.x86_64

with this config,

cat /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eno1 STARTMODE='auto' BOOTPROTO='none'

cat /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-br0 NAME='br0' BRIDGE='yes' BRIDGE_PORTS='eno1' STARTMODE='auto' BOOTPROTO='static' BRIDGE_STP='off' BRIDGE_FORWARDDELAY='0' BRIDGE_AGEINGTIME='0' IPADDR0='10.10.10.10/24' IPV6INIT='no' IPV6_AUTOCONF='no' ETHTOOL_OPTIONS='' MTU='1500' NETWORK='' BROADCAST='' REMOTE_IPADDR='' USERCONTROL='no' POST_UP_SCRIPT=/etc/sysconfig/network/scripts/br0-config.sh

cat /etc/sysconfig/network/scripts/br0-config.sh #!/bin/sh ethtool -K br0 tso off gso off ethtool -K eno1 tso off gso off

On boot I'm seeing

systemd-analyze blame 2min 25.819s wicked.service 55.550s xenstored.service 1.784s lvm2-pvscan@9:1.service 1.367s dev-mapper-VG0\x2dROOT.device 975ms lvm2-pvscan@9:3.service ...

that's certainly not healthy.

In logs, I 1st see

journalctl -xb | grep -i br0 Nov 19 15:01:47 sensvr wicked[1394]: ifcfg-br0: unable to qualify post-up script - unknown script type '(null):/etc/sysconfig/network/scripts/br0-config.sh'

Under Opensuse 13.2, there was not problem with this ifup-script -- I could verify exec / setting of the ethtool params.

Now, with this failure, after boot, the params remain unset

ethtool -k br0 > br0-set-pre.txt ethtool -k eno1 > eno1-set-pre.txt ethtool -K br0 tso off gso off ethtool -K eno1 tso off gso off ethtool -k br0 > br0-set-post.txt ethtool -k eno1 > eno1-set-post.txt diff br0-set-pre.txt br0-set-post.txt 12,15c12,15 < tcp-segmentation-offload: on < tx-tcp-segmentation: on < tx-tcp-ecn-segmentation: on < tx-tcp6-segmentation: on --- > tcp-segmentation-offload: off > tx-tcp-segmentation: off > tx-tcp-ecn-segmentation: off > tx-tcp6-segmentation: off 17c17 < generic-segmentation-offload: on --- > generic-segmentation-offload: off diff eno1-set-pre.txt eno1-set-post.txt 12,13c12,13 < tcp-segmentation-offload: on < tx-tcp-segmentation: on --- > tcp-segmentation-offload: off > tx-tcp-segmentation: off 15c15 < tx-tcp6-segmentation: on --- > tx-tcp6-segmentation: off 17c17 < generic-segmentation-offload: on --- > generic-segmentation-offload: off

Are ifup scripts no longer supported?

If wicked-native scripts are now required (are they?), what's the proper usage?

If not, what info's needed here?
