Since 9516823051ce, "ip addr show label lo:1" doesn't work
anymore (doesn't show any address, despite a matching label).
Reverting to return 0 instead of -1 fix the issue.

However, the condition says: "if we filter by label [...] and the
label does NOT match the interface name". This makes little sense to
compare the label with the interface name. There is also a logic
around filter family being provided or not. The match against the
label is done by ifa_label_match_rta() in print_addrinfo() and
ipaddr_filter().

Just removing the condition makes "ip addr show" works as expected
with or without specifying a label, both when the label is matching
and not matching. It also works if we specify a label and the label is
the interface name. The flush operation also works as expected.

If this is a regression, it should go to iproute2 not iproute2-next.

Surprised by the solution since it is removing code that was there
before the commit you referenced in Fixes.

Yes, but as I explain in the commit message, the condition does not make
sense for me: why would we match the label against the interface name?
This code exists since a long time.

The offending commit changed the return code:

        if (filter.label &&
            (!filter.family || filter.family == AF_PACKET) &&
-           fnmatch(filter.label, RTA_DATA(tb[IFLA_IFNAME]), 0))
-               return 0;
+           fnmatch(filter.label, name, 0))
+               return -1;


Vincent: can you try leaving the code as is, but change the return to 0?

Yes, it works by just returning 0. The code still doesn't make sense.

I think return code is correct. Check presented by this code too because
print_linkinfo() isn't static and called from ipmonitor.c where no
ipaddr_filter() or similar call that filters by label present.

Instead fnmatch() compares interface *name*, not label from IFA_LABEL
attribute. Thus:

    fnmatch(pattern, string, flags) ->
    fnmatch("lo:1", "lo", 0) == FNM_NOMATCH (1)

Assuming above I would like to see ifa_label_match_rta() instead of open
coded checks for filter.label with fmatch() in print_linkinfo().

Also it might be good idea to pass @name from get_ifname_rta() (like we
do in print_linkinfo()) to ifa_label_match_rta() so that we respect
IFLA_IFNAME if present.

Ok, did more deep analysis of code. Vincent, David: we should return 0
as done before 9516823051ce.

This is special case to return from print_linkinfo() earlier and match
only filter.ifindex and filter.up if given and not rest fields in @filter.

Then call print_selected_addrinfo() without calling print_link_stats()
in ipaddr_list_flush_or_save().

Later print_selected_addrinfo() calls print_addrinfo() that finally
matches filter.label using ifa_label_match_rta().

This still incorrect: we should not call fnmatch() with network device name.

Also ip-link(8) does not say anything that label could be used to
filter link output. Label is ip-address(8) specific. Therefore checking
filter.family == AF_PACKET looks incorrect. AF_PACKET is ip-link(8)
specific.

Checking against !filter.family (AF_UNSPEC) is incorrect too: user might
force address family at ip command line and we never get:

    ip -4 addr show label lo:1

So from the code:

    if (filter.label &&
       (!filter.family || filter.family == AF_PACKET) &&
        fnmatch(filter.label, RTA_DATA(tb[IFLA_IFNAME]), 0))
            return -1;

We should leave only filter.label check and return 0:

    if (filter.label)
            return 0;

This will ensure we exit from print_linkinfo() earlier, skip
print_link_stats() and push final filtering by label to
print_selected_addrinfo() and print_addrinfo().

And finally: this is regression and should be against iproute2, not -next.

As you did the analysis, I let you do the patch.
