GError codes are only unique per domain, so logging the code without
also indicating the domain is not helpful. And anyway, if the error
messages are not distinctive enough to tell the whole story then we
should fix the error messages.

Functions that take a GError** MUST fill it in on error. There is no
need to check whether error is NULL if the function it was passed to
had a failing return value.
Likewise, a proper GError must have a non-NULL message, so there's no
need to double-check that either.

- All internal source files (except "examples", which are not internal)
should include "config.h" first. As also all internal source
files should include "nm-default.h", let "config.h" be included
by "nm-default.h" and include "nm-default.h" as first in every
source file.
We already wanted to include "nm-default.h" before other headers
because it might contains some fixes (like "nm-glib.h" compatibility)
that is required first.
- After including "nm-default.h", we optinally allow for including the
corresponding header file for the source file at hand. The idea
is to ensure that each header file is self contained.
- Don't include "config.h" or "nm-default.h" in any header file
(except "nm-sd-adapt.h"). Public headers anyway must not include
these headers, and internal headers are never included after
"nm-default.h", as of the first previous point.
- Include all internal headers with quotes instead of angle brackets.
In practice it doesn't matter, because in our public headers we must
include other headers with angle brackets. As we use our public
headers also to compile our interal source files, effectively the
result must be the same. Still do it for consistency.
- Except for <config.h> itself. Include it with angle brackets as suggested by
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#Configuration-Headers
The localization headers are now included via "nm-default.h".
Also fixes several places, where we wrongly included <glib/gi18n-lib.h>
instead of <glib/gi18n.h>. For example under "clients/" directory.
Rather than randomly including one or more of <glib.h>,
<glib-object.h>, and <gio/gio.h> everywhere (and forgetting to include
"nm-glib-compat.h" most of the time), rename nm-glib-compat.h to
nm-glib.h, include <gio/gio.h> from there, and then change all .c
files in NM to include "nm-glib.h" rather than including the glib
headers directly.
(Public headers files still have to include the real glib headers,
since nm-glib.h isn't installed...)
Also, remove glib includes from header files that are already
including a base object header file (which must itself already include
the glib headers).
Libraries need to include <gi18n-lib.h>, not <gi18n.h>, so that _()
will get defined to "dgettext (GETTEXT_DOMAIN, string)" rather than
"gettext (string)" (which will use the program's default domain, which
works fine for programs in the NetworkManager tree, but not for
external users). Likewise, we need to call bindtextdomain() so that
gettext can find the translations if the library is installed in a
different prefix from the program using it (and
bind_textdomain_codeset(), so it will know the translations are in
UTF-8 even if the locale isn't).
(The fact that no one noticed this was broken before is because the
libraries didn't really start returning useful translated strings much
until 0.9.10, and none of the out-of-tree clients have been updated to
actually show those strings to users yet.)
config.h should be included from every .c file, and it should be
included before any other include. Fix that.
(As a side effect of how I did this, this also changes us to
consistently use "config.h" rather than <config.h>. To the extent that
it matters [which is not much], quotes are more correct anyway, since
we're talking about a file in our own build tree, not a system
include.)
Some libnm-glib object properties were only documented in the
GParamSpec strings, not via gtk-doc comments, so they became
undocumented when the paramspec strings went away. Fix that.
(Also fix incorrect gtk-doc syntax with several NMClient properties.)
- Remove list of authors from files that had them; these serve no
purpose except to quickly get out of date (and were only used in
libnm-util and not libnm-glib anyway).
- Just say "Copyright", not "(C) Copyright" or "Copyright (C)"
- Put copyright statement after the license, not before
- Remove "NetworkManager - Network link manager" from the few files
that contained it, and "libnm_glib -- Access network status &
information from glib applications" from the many files that
contained it.
- Remove vim modeline from nm-device-olpc-mesh.[ch], add emacs modeline
to files that were missing it.
Remove all remaining GParamSpec name and blurb strings (and fix
indentation while we're there), and add G_PARAM_STATIC_STRINGS to all
paramspecs that were lacking it.
The functions nm_remote_connection_save(), nm_remote_connection_commit_changes(),
and nm_remote_connection_commit_changes_unsaved() indicate in the documentation,
that they allow omitting the callback argument. Remove invalid checks
for callback.

result_cb invokes a function pointer provided by the user. Nothing prevents
the user from destroying the NMRemoteConnection in the callback, which leads
to a crash. Take an additional ref of NMRemoteConnection to keep it
alive.
This probably caused a crash for nm-applet:

If you called nm_remote_connection_delete() on a connection whose only
ref was held by the NMRemoteSettings, then the callback would never
get called, because NMRemoteSettings would drop its ref before then
(when the connection emitted the 'removed' signal), so the callback
would get cancelled.
Fix this by taking an extra ref on the connection around the D-Bus
call in this case.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997568https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706141
Use the D-Bus connection helper whenever we need a connection to
NM, which by default tries to use a private connection instead of
the shared bus connection whenever the user is root. Doing this
by default will not change the behavior of libnm-glib, and allows
tools like nmcli and libnm-glib-using clients to work in minimal
environments (those without a bus daemon) by default.
When using a private connection, we need to use dbus_g_proxy_new_for_peer()
because the bus isn't involved. Since many parts of libnm-glib create a
proxy for their corresponding remote object, consolidate the proxy creation
logic.
A later patch will add logic to use a private connection versus a bus-based
one.
24cda2bc broke the ability to set NMConnection:path back to NULL after
it had been set, as part of a hack to try to make
NMRemoteConnection:dbus-path work. Fix that by moving the hack
entirely into NMRemoteConnection.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693829
In order to resolve NMRemoteConnection-valued properties, NMObject
needs to be able to create NMRemoteConnections. But NMObject assumes
that all the objects it will be creating have "dbus-connection" and
"dbus-path" properties. So add those properties to NMRemoteConnection,
aliasing the existing "bus" and "path" properties (and ensure that
whichever version gets set, we keep that value, rather than letting it
get overwritten by the NULL default value of the other one).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693669
If a class implements init_async, it should implement init_finish too,
rather than assuming the default implementation will do the right
thing (which it briefly didn't in glib 2.33).
In some situations, objects might get used after being disposed, so
clear out their various priv fields so we don't try to access unreffed
objects, freed strings, etc.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=674473
Implement GInitable and GAsyncInitable in NMObject, with
implementations that synchronously or asynchonously load all
properties, and change _nm_object_ensure_inited() to run
g_initable_init().
Update the object/object-array property handling to initialize the
objects after creating them (synchronously or asynchronously,
according to the situation), so that they will have all of their
properties preloaded before they are ever visible to the caller.
Move the non-blocking/non-failable parts of various objects'
constructor() methods to constructed(), and move the blocking/failable
parts to init(), and implement init_async() methods with non-blocking
versions of the blocking methods.
Make nm_device_new() and nm_client_new() call
_nm_object_ensure_inited(), to preserve the behaviour formerly
enforced by their construct() methods, that properties are guaranteed
to be initialized before any signals involving them are emitted.
Most of the code was using dbus_g_proxy_call() directly, but there
were some leftover uses of the generated bindings. Make things more
consistent by using dbus_g_proxy_call() everywhere, and stop building
the -bindings.h files.
Don't delete them if we don't have permission for them, since
we may get permission for them later via Update. But to listen
for Update we need the connection around.
When the connection becomes invisible to a user (ie, the permissions
of the connection no longer allow that user to view the connection)
then we have to hid the connection from clients. But we can't
just dispose of it, because visibility changes are signaled with
Update signals on the connection itself, and thus we need to keep
the connection around just in case it becomes visible to the user
again. But if it's invisible, make sure we clear out the settings
since they may have changed.
Simplifies code internally, and makes it easier for clients as well in
some cases where they want to control what ends up in the resulting
hash and what does not.
The Settings.Connection interface is now only provided by NetworkManager
itself since there is only one settings service. NM can validate
requests for secrets internally and thus there's no need to lock down
GetSecrets using a separate D-Bus interface, since PolicyKit provides
that functionality on systems where this is desirable (ie multi-user).
Single-user systems that do not have PolicyKit will inherently trust
the user already, or if not D-Bus auth is flexible enough to lock
down the GetSecrets method individually even if it's not on a separate
D-Bus interface.
Second, since only clients like connection editors or applets will be
calling the GetSecrets method, there's no need for 'hints' or
'request_new' arguments here since this method should never trigger
an interactive secrets request. Only NM should send those requests
when it knows it needs to ask the user, either during connection or
after validating the incoming GetSecrets request. A connection editor
type application should never be able to trigger the normal
"What's your passphrase" dialog thats provided by the secret agent
for that user's session.
Add the necessary annotations (the mininum required, that is those
on return values. NULL parameters or container types may require
more), and the Autotools stuff to get a NetworkManager GIR for
libnm-util and a NMClient for libnm-glib.
Just for consistency, make settings related stuff live under the
org.freedesktop.NetworkManager namespace, rather than its own
org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSettings namespace. Renames are done for
DBus interface names, DBus object paths, and polkit actions.
