Use g_print() and g_printerr(), which wrap printf() and
fprintf(stderr,...), but handle conversion from UTF-8 if the locale is
using a different character set.
Make synchronous APIs take GCancellables, and make asynchronous APIs
use GAsyncReadyCallbacks and have names ending in "_async", with
"_finish" functions to retrieve the results.
Also, make nm_client_activate_connection_finish(),
nm_client_add_and_activate_finish(), and
nm_remote_settings_add_connection_finish() be (transfer full) rather
than (transfer none), because the refcounting semantics become
slightly confusing in some edge cases otherwise.
Merge nm_remote_settings_add_connection() and
nm_remote_settings_add_connection_unsaved(), and likewise
nm_remote_connection_commit_changes() and
nm_remote_connection_commit_changes_unsaved(), by adding a boolean
flag to each saying whether to save to disk.
Check whether NM is running before comparing nmcli and NM versions. Returning
NMC_RESULT_ERROR_NM_NOT_RUNNING is in accordance with other nmcli commands.
In preparation for porting to GDBus, make nm_connection_to_dbus(),
etc, represent connections as GVariants of type 'a{sa{sv}}' rather
than as GHashTables-of-GHashTables-of-GValues.
This means we're constantly converting back and forth internally, but
this is just a stepping stone on the way to the full GDBus port, and
all of that code will go away again later.
libnm-util's connection deserializing/copying/replacing functions have
odd semantics where sometimes they both modify a connection AND return
an error. libnm-core tried to improve things by guaranteeing that the
connection would not be modified if the new settings were invalid, but
this ended up breaking a bunch of places that needed to be able to
work with invalid connections. So re-fix the functions by reverting
back to the old semantics, but having return values that clearly
distinguish whether the connection was modified or not.
For comparison:
- nm_connection_new_from_hash() / nm_simple_connection_new_from_dbus():
- libnm-util: returns a valid connection or NULL.
- OLD libnm-core: returned a valid connection or NULL.
- NEW libnm-core: returns a valid connection or NULL.
- nm_connection_duplicate() / nm_simple_connection_new_clone():
- libnm-util: always succeeds, whether or not the connection is
valid.
- OLD libnm-core: returned a valid connection or NULL
- NEW libnm-core: always succeeds, whether or not the connection
is valid.
- nm_connection_replace_settings_from_connection():
- libnm-util: always replaces the settings, but returns FALSE if
the connection is now invalid.
- OLD libnm-core: either replaced the settings and returned TRUE
(if the settings were valid), or else left the connection
unchanged and returned FALSE (if not).
- NEW libnm-core: always replaces the settings, and has no
return value. (The modified connection is valid if and only if
the replaced-from connection was valid; just like with the
libnm-util version.)
- nm_connection_replace_settings():
- libnm-util: returns TRUE if the new settings are valid, or
FALSE if either (a) the new settings could not be deserialized
and the connection is unchanged, or (b) the new settings were
deserialized, and the connection was updated, but is now not
valid.
- OLD libnm-core: either replaced the settings and returned TRUE
(if the settings were valid), or else left the connection
unchanged and returned FALSE (if not).
- NEW libnm-core: returns TRUE if the connection was updated
(whether or not it is valid), or FALSE if the new settings
could not be deserialized and the connection is unchanged.
libnm functions that return GPtrArrays of objects had a rule that if
the array was empty, they would return NULL rather than a 0-length
array. As it turns out, this is just a nuisance to clients, since in
most places the code for the non-empty case would end up doing the
right thing for the empty case as well (and where it doesn't, we can
check "array->len == 0" just as easily as "array == NULL"). So just
return the 0-length array instead.
Make all mac-address properties (including NMSettingBluetooth:bdaddr,
NMSettingOlpcMesh:dhcp-anycast-addr, and NMSettingWireless:bssid) be
strings, using _nm_setting_class_transform_property() to handle
translating to/from binary form when dealing with D-Bus.
Update everything accordingly for the change, and also add a test for
transformed setting properties to test-general.
Add a method to determine if a connection applies to a virtual device.
Perhaps eventually the logic should be spread across the NMSetting
classes, but for now it's better off having it in NMConnection than
once in NMManager and once in nmcli.
The virtual :interface-name properties (eg,
NMDeviceBond:interface-name) are deprecated in favor of
NMSettingConnection:interface-name, and nm_connection_verify() ensures
that their values are kept in sync. So (a) there is no need to set
those properties when we can just set
NMSettingConnection:interface-name instead, and (b) we can replace any
calls to the setting-specific get_interface_name() methods with
nm_connection_get_interface_name() or
nm_setting_connection_get_interface_name().
Since we enforce the fact that bond, bridge, team, and vlan
interface-name properties match NMSettingConnection:interface-name,
nm_connection_get_virtual_iface_name() can be replaced with
nm_connection_get_interface_name() basically everywhere.
The one place this doesn't work is with InfiniBand partitions (where
get_virtual_iface_name() was actually computing the name), but for the
most part we only need to care about the interface names of InfiniBand
partitions in places where we also already need to do some other
InfiniBand-specific handling as well, so we can use an
InfiniBand-specific method
(nm_setting_infiniband_get_virtual_interface_name()) to get it.
(Also, while updating nm_device_get_virtual_device_description(), fix
it to handle InfiniBand partitions too.)
Rename nm_connection_to_hash() to nm_connection_to_dbus(), and
nm_connection_new_from_hash() to nm_connection_new_from_dbus(). In
addition to clarifying that this is specifically the D-Bus
serialization format, these names will also work better in the
GDBus-based future where the serialization format is GVariant, not
GHashTable.
Also, move NMSettingHashFlags to nm-connection.h, and rename it
NMConnectionSerializationFlags.
nm_remote_settings_list_connections() ensures the connections are loaded first.
We check "help" commands before getting connections, because it is time
intensive action.
When connecting a master connection, no slave devices will be activated
automatically. The user is supposed to activate them individually.
Hence nmcli should not wait for the connection to be fully activated
because that is not going to happen (unless the user connects a slave
connection from another terminal).
Instead, for master connections behave differently and signal success
once the master device reaches IP_CONFIG state.
This revises behavior introduced by commit
47710f8211.

The fact that NMRemoteConnection has to be an NMConnection and
therefore can't be an NMObject means that it needs to reimplement bits
of NMObject functionality (and likewise NMObject needs some special
magic to deal with it). Likewise, we will need a daemon-side
equivalent of NMObject as part of the gdbus port, and we would want
NMSettingsConnection to be able to inherit from this as well.
Solve this problem by making NMConnection into an interface, and
having NMRemoteConnection and NMSettingsConnection implement it. (We
use some hacks to keep the GHashTable of NMSettings objects inside
nm-connection.c rather than having to be implemented by the
implementations.)
Since NMConnection is no longer an instantiable type, this adds
NMSimpleConnection to replace the various non-D-Bus-based uses of
NMConnection throughout the code. nm_connection_new() becomes
nm_simple_connection_new(), nm_connection_new_from_hash() becomes
nm_simple_connection_new_from_hash(), and nm_connection_duplicate()
becomes nm_simple_connection_new_clone().
NMRemoteSettings duplicates a bunch of NMObject's functionality that
it doesn't need to. In libnm-glib, it wouldn't have been possible to
port NMRemoteSettings to NMObject without breaking ABI, but now in
libnm we can do that.
As a side effect of this, NMRemoteSettings gains a "connections"
property, and "connection-added" and "connection-removed" signals
(with the former replacing the old "new-connection" signal). This also
removes the "connections-loaded" signal, since the connections will
now always be loaded (via the initialization of the "connections"
property) during init()/init_async().
Also, this removes NMRemoteConnection's "removed" signal, since it's
redundant with the new NMRemoteSettings::connection-removed (and
having the signal on NMRemoteSettings instead is more consistent with
other objects).
Drop the arptype-based nm_utils_hwaddr funcs, and rename the
length-based ones to no longer have _len in their names. This also
switches nm_utils_hwaddr_atoba() to using a length rather than an
arptype, and adds a length argument to nm_utils_hwaddr_valid() (making
nm_utils_hwaddr_valid() now a replacement for nm_utils_hwaddr_aton()
in some places, where we were only using aton() to do validity
checking).
Add NetworkManager.h, which includes all of the other NM header, and
require all external users of libnm to use that rather than the
individual headers.
(An exception is made for nm-dbus-interface.h,
nm-vpn-dbus-interface.h, and nm-version.h, which can be included
separately.)
Remove _nm_object_ensure_inited(), etc; objects that implement
GInitable are now mandatory-to-init().
Remove constructor() implementations that sometimes return NULL; do
all the relevant checking in init() instead.
Make nm_client_new() and nm_remote_settings_new() take a GCancellable
and a GError**.
GLib/Gtk have mostly settled on the convention that two-letter
acronyms in type names remain all-caps (eg, "IO"), but longer acronyms
become initial-caps-only (eg, "Tcp").
NM was inconsistent, with most long acronyms using initial caps only
(Adsl, Cdma, Dcb, Gsm, Olpc, Vlan), but others using all caps (DHCP,
PPP, PPPOE, VPN). Fix libnm and src/ to use initial-caps only for all
three-or-more-letter-long acronyms (and update nmcli and nmtui for the
libnm changes).
Since the API has not changed at this point, this is mostly just a
matter of updating Makefiles, and changing references to the library
name in comments.
NetworkManager cannot link to libnm due to the duplicated type/symbol
names. So it links to libnm-core.la directly, which means that
NetworkManager gets a separate copy of that code from libnm.so.
Everything else links to libnm.

Create a new clients/ subdirectory at the top level, and move cli/ and
tui/ into it, as well as nm-online.c (which was previously in test/,
which made no sense).
cli/ was split into two subdirectories, src/ and completion/. While
this does simplify things (given that the completion file and the
binary both need to be named "nmcli"), it bloats the source tree, and
we can work around it by just renaming the completion file at install
time. Then we can combine the two directories into one and just have
it all under clients/cli/.
