The new object type represents tunnels over IPv4 and IPv6.
We have a single setting type (NMSettingIPTunnel) for tunnels and it
can't be shared among different device factories. So we define also a
single device type for all tunnels.
This new object will also represent GRE tunnels, which before were
instantiated as NMDeviceGre and had a ".Device.Gre" D-Bus
interface. This commit introduces a change in behavior.
Add a generic NMSettingTunnel which describes properties of tunnels
over IPv4 and IPv6 (GRE, SIT, IPIP, IPIP6, IP6GRE, etc.). Since those
tunnel types all have similar properties it makes sense to have a
single setting type for them.
Add function nm_utils_enum_get_values() which returns a string array
containing the enum values. It can be used, for example, to build a
list of allowed values for user.
@random_data is declared as _cleanup_free_.
Freeing it is unnecessary and freeing without clearing the
pointer leads do a double free.
This reverts commit 3d1557eaad.
We potentially emit a lot of signals. Don't look up the
signal by name because that adds quite some additional
overhead, like peeking for a GQuark.
Instead pass the numeric signal-id directly.
This enum was unused and meaningless because the platform signals
are emitted as a consequence of netlink messages. It is not clear
whether a netlink message was received due to an external event
or an internal action.
Unslaving from a bridge causes a wrong RTM_DELLINK event for
the former slave.

Previously, during do_request_link() we would remember the link that is
about to be requested (delayed_deletion) and delay processing a new
RTM_DELLINK message until the end of do_request_link() -- and possibly
forget about about the deletion, if RTM_DELLINK was followed by a
RTM_NEWLINK.
However, this hack does not catch the case where an external command
unslaves the link.
Instead just accept the wrong event and raise a "removed" signal right
away. This brings the cache in an externally visible, wrong state that
will be fixed by a following "added" signal.
Still do that because working around the kernel bug is complicated. Also,
we already might emit wrong "added" signals for devices that are already
removed. As a consequence, a user should not consider the platform signals
until all events are processed.
Listeners to that signal should accept that added/removed link changes
can be wrong and should preferably handle them idly, when the events
have settled.
It can even be worse, that a RTM_DELLINK is not fixed by a following
RTM_NEWLINK:
...
# ip link set dummy0 nomaster
36: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop master bridge0 state DOWN
link/ether e2:f2:20:98:3a:be brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
36: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state DOWN

So, when a slave is deleted, we have to refetch it too.

On some kernels (at least RHEL-7.2) we receive a spurious RTM_NEWLINK
message after the RTM_DELLINK message for deleting a bond master.
On RHEL-7, the following commands give:
# ip link add dummy0 type dummy
# ip link add bond0 type bond
# ip link set bond0 up
# ip link set dummy0 master bond0
# ip monitor link &
# ip link del bond0
21: bond0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state DOWN
link/ether 1e:a6:6c:81:c1:8d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Deleted 21: bond0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN

20: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
link/ether 1e:a6:6c:81:c1:8d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
21: bond0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN
link/ether da:ee:58:70:6f:e5 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ RTM_NEWLINK after RTM_DELLINK (and there follows no
RTM_DELLINK afterwards)

Fix that by reverting clear_REFRESH_LINK(). This fix has two downsides:
- on kernels where this hack is not necessary, we unnecessarily refetch
a link
- the platform cache first removes the link, adds it again and removes
it. This is ugly, but should have no real consequences because all
listeners to the platform signals delay processing the signals to an
idle handler.

The related bug rh#1262908 in kernel causes missing netlink notifications
when moving a IFA_LINK interface to another netns.
Add a test for our workaround.

Due to kernel bugs [1], the first netlink event about a new link
sometimes lacks the IFLA_LINKINFO with the link-type lnk data.
In the case the data is missing, schedule a re-fetch the link
hoping that it gets send.

"platform" implements a iproute2 like command-line
tool based on NMPlatform.
It is badly maintained and mostly unused. If we want
to test something, we should write tests that are run
automatically during `make check`. Manual tests just
don't fly.
Can't just substitute sysconfdir into a header file -- it's meant to be
expanded in a Makefile. Otherwise, unexpanded ${prefix} will end up in a
header file.
We do that for NMCONFDIR already, let's use it here too.

Instead of reimplementing constructed() just to call
nm_exported_object_export(), use the 'export_on_construction' flag
which does this automatically. This also fixes the following error:
nm_exported_object_export: assertion failed: (priv->_constructed)
Fixes: 8a8ecc46ca
When @src didn't have a gateway and @dst did, the function left @dst's
gateway set to 0.0.0.0; fix this and unset the gateway in such case.
