And, while at that, add a hint to the developer adding new items. It's
helps avoid a mistake that I believe is common (because I just made it
twice...).
Most of the times we actually need a NMSecretAgentSimple typed pointer.
This way, need need to cast less.
But even if we would need to cast more, it's better to have pointers
point to the actual type, not merely to avoid shortcomings of C.
The state handling in add_and_activate_cb() and connect_device_cb() is
redundant to connected_state_cb() and in fact executed only if the
activation is really really really quick (which it never is).
Also, the return_text those implementations provide is different from
what connected_state_cb(), potentially confusing the users and adding
extra work for translators.
Not to mention extra lines of code, reading whose wastes our precious
time on the planet we could spend doing heroin instead.
Try to locate an existing connection before creating a new one when
handling "nmcli device wifi connect". This allows WPA-Enterprise
networks to be activated this way, consistent with the comment that this
command is equivalent to clicking on an SSID in a GUI client.
When nm_device_disconnect_async() returns, the device could be still
in DEACTIVATING state, and so we also register to device-state signal
notifications to know when the device state goes to DISCONNECTED.
Sometimes it happens that the device state goes to DISCONNECTED before
nm_device_disconnect_async() returns. In this case the signal handler
exits the main loop and then the callback for disconnect_async() is
executed anyway because it was already dispatched, leading to an
invalid memory access.
To avoid this we should cancel nm_device_disconnect_async() when we
are quitting the main loop.
Reproducer:
nmcli connection add type team ifname t1 con-name t1
nmcli connection up t1
nmcli device disconnect t1 & nmcli device delete t1

Correct the spelling across the *entire* tree, including translations,
comments, etc. It's easier that way.
Even the places where it's not exposed to the user, such as tests, so
that we learn how is it spelled correctly.
In general we want to keep the connections that the user is most likely
to want to see topmost. Default connections should be close to the top,
but the connections that are likely to have been brought up manually
shall be above them. It applies to VPN connections and should apply to
Hotspots too.
When a software device is removed by nmcli in parallel with a
disconnection, e.g.:
nmcli connection add type team ifname t1 con-name t1
sleep 1
nmcli connection down t1 & nmcli device delete t1
nmcli sometimes crashes in the following way:
...
Connection 't1' (e4701688-d1a9-4942-85f0-a2081e120023) successfully added.
Connection 't1' successfully deactivated (D-Bus active path: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/36)
Device 't1' successfully removed.

The reason is that after calling nm_device_delete_async() we also
listen for the manager device-removed signal. When the signal is
received, device_removed_cb() destroy the @info structure and calls
g_main_loop_quit (loop). However, if the delete_device_cb() callback
has already been dispatched it is executed anyway and it tries to
access a stale @info.
It makes little sense to listen for the device-removed signal since
the return value of nm_device_delete_async() already tells us whether
the device was removed successfully or not.
The only advantage would be that when the device goes away for other
reasons we can still return success, but that is racy and should not
be relied upon.

Globals are bad. Don't let nmc_readline_helper() access
nm_cli.
Instead, pass nmc_config along. nmc_config albeit being
a complex struct, is much more begning:
- the configuration nmc_config is initialized early on
and afterwards immutable.
- it only contains simple fields, which affect the behavior.
- it's not a global. While passing around the complex configuration
struct, it is clear that all callpaths don't access additional
global information.
The print-output knows three modes: NORMAL, PRETTY, TERSE.
Never compare whether a mode is != a particular mode.
Instead, always explicitly check for the modes for which we enable a
particular behavior.
The effect is, that we always do something when the mode is set to a
particular value. We don't ever do something, if the mode is not set to
a particular value. Consistently opt-in is easier to understand.
We commonly don't use the glib typedefs for char/short/int/long,
but their C types directly.
$ git grep '\<g\(char\|short\|int\|long\|float\|double\)\>' | wc -l
587
$ git grep '\<\(char\|short\|int\|long\|float\|double\)\>' | wc -l
21114
One could argue that using the glib typedefs is preferable in
public API (of our glib based libnm library) or where it clearly
is related to glib, like during
g_object_set (obj, PROPERTY, (gint) value, NULL);
However, that argument does not seem strong, because in practice we don't
follow that argument today, and seldomly use the glib typedefs.
Also, the style guide for this would be hard to formalize, because
"using them where clearly related to a glib" is a very loose suggestion.
Also note that glib typedefs will always just be typedefs of the
underlying C types. There is no danger of glib changing the meaning
of these typedefs (because that would be a major API break of glib).
A simple style guide is instead: don't use these typedefs.
No manual actions, I only ran the bash script:
FILES=($(git ls-files '*.[hc]'))
sed -i \
-e 's/\<g\(char\|short\|int\|long\|float\|double\)\>\( [^ ]\)/\1\2/g' \
-e 's/\<g\(char\|short\|int\|long\|float\|double\)\> /\1 /g' \
-e 's/\<g\(char\|short\|int\|long\|float\|double\)\>/\1/g' \
"${FILES[@]}"
The function nmc_print() receives a list of "targets". These are essentially
the rows that should be printed (while the "fields" list represents the columns).
When filling the cells with values, it calles repeatedly get_fcn() on the
column descriptors (fields), by passing each row (target).
The caller must be well aware that the fields and targets are
compatible. For example, in some cases the targets are NMDevice
instances and the target type must correspond to what get_fcn()
expects.
Add another user-data pointer that is passed on along with the
targets. That is useful, if we have a list of targets/rows, but
pass in additional data that applies to all rows alike.
It is still unused.
Now that nmcli initiates a scan before displaying Wi-Fi networks,
the stub service must properly support that as well.
For the moment, the stub service chooses "now" as LastScan timestamp.
This causes nmcli not to trigger a new scan, because nmcli gives
unstable output if multiple nmcli processes in parallel race to
trigger a Wi-Fi scan. That should be fixed.
(cherry picked from commit 56a0488bba)
Check the wpa_flags and rsn_flags values to see if the network needs the
password added to the 802-11-wireless-security settings. The current
ap_flags check alone would only trigger the password to be sent for WEP
networks. Also remove unneeded initialization of the three variables.
This basically replaces the (NMMetaTermColor, NMMetaTermFormat) combo
with NMMetaColor that describes the colored element semantically as
opposed to storing the raw attributes.
A (currently static) paletted is used to translate the semantic color
code to the actual ANSI controle sequence. This matches what
terminal-colors.d(5) schemes use, making it convenient to implement
customizable palettes.
This actually makes very little difference at the moment, but will make
things more confortable later on, when the logic of enabling/disabling
coloring will involve terminal-colors.d(5).
Instead of deciding whether to use colors lazily with use_colors(), it's
done very early on nmcli initialization and a boolean use_colors field
is stored in the NmcConfig instance instead of the raw tristate option
of NmcColorOption type (which is now confined to nmcli.c).
Wherever the NmcColorOption was used previously, the whole NmcConfig
instance is passed around. That might seem pointless (since only the
use_colors boolean is actually used at the moment), but will be utilized
to pass around the actual color palette in future.
