Make the type return GBytes since most in-tree users want that.
Allow the function to accept many more formats as valid hex, including
bytes delimited by ':' and a leading '0x'.
Update the docs build to include and exclude the correct files.
Fill in some missing documentation, and fix problems in the existing
docs. (In particular, "<" can't appear as a literal in documentation,
so change it to "<". Also, "PKCS#12" has to be written as
"PKCS#<!-- -->12", or gtk-doc will think "#12" is a reference to a
type named "12".)
Create NMIPConfig as the parent of NMIP4Config and NMIP6Config, and
remove the two subclasses from the public API; while it's convenient
to still have both internally, they are now identical to the outside
world.
If the operation isn't canceled it returns an error, printing this:
/libnm/client-nm-running:
(/home/dcbw/Development/fdo/NetworkManager/libnm/tests/.libs/lt-test-nm-client:17983): libnm-WARNING **: updated_properties: error reading NMRemoteSettings properties: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)
/bin/sh: line 5: 17983 Trace/breakpoint trap ./libnm-test-launch.sh ${dir}$tst
FAIL: test-nm-client
which screws up testcases because they don't expect this message.
And in this case, since libnm knows that NM is exiting and will
just clear out the properties anyway, it's useless to print the message.
libnm mostly used GPtrArrays in its APIs, except that arrays of
connections were usually GSLists. Fix this and make them GPtrArrays
too (and rename nm_client_list_connections() to
nm_client_get_connections() to match everything else).
Add nm-core-types.h, typedefing all of the GObject types in
libnm-core; this is needed so that nm-setting.h can reference
NMConnection in addition to nm-connection.h referencing NMSetting.
Removing the cross-includes from the various headers causes lots of
fallout elsewhere. (In particular, nm-utils.h used to include
nm-connection.h, which included every setting header, so any file that
included nm-utils.h automatically got most of the rest of libnm-core
without needing to pay attention to specifics.) Fix this up by
including nm-core-internal.h from those files that are now missing
includes.
Merge libnm's NMDeviceError and the daemon's NMDeviceError into a
single enum (in nm-errors.h). Register the domain with D-Bus, and add
a test that the client side decodes it correctly.
The daemon's NM_DEVICE_ERROR_CONNECTION_INVALID gets absorbed into
libnm's NM_DEVICE_ERROR_INVALID_CONNECTION, and
NM_DEVICE_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_DEVICE_TYPE gets dropped, since it was
only returned from one place, which is now using
NM_DEVICE_ERROR_FAILED, since (a) it ought to be a "can't happen", and
(b) the only caller of that function just logs error->message and then
frees the error without ever looking at the code.
As with the settings, each device type was defining its own error
type, containing either redundant or non-useful error codes. Drop all
of the subtype-specific errors, and reduce things to just
NM_DEVICE_ERROR_FAILED, NM_DEVICE_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_CONNECTION, and
NM_DEVICE_ERROR_INVALID_CONNECTION.
The device-type-specific errors were only returned from their
nm_device_connection_compatible() implementations, so this is also a
good opportunity to simplify those, by moving duplicated functionality
into the base NMDevice implementation, and then allowing the
subclasses to assume that the connection has already been validated in
their own code. Most of the implementations now just check that the
connection has the correct type for the device (which can't be done at
the NMDevice level since some device types (eg, Ethernet) support
multiple connection types.)
Also, make sure that all of the error messages are localized.
Make enum- and flags-valued properties use GParamSpecEnum and
GParamSpecFlags, for better introspectability/bindability.
This requires no changes outside libnm-core/libnm since the expected
data size is still the same with g_object_get()/g_object_set(), and
GLib will internally convert between int/uint and enum/flags GValues
when using g_object_get_property()/g_object_set_property().
Add the missing variant in most places in the API where previously
there was either only a synchronous version or only an asynchronous
version.
There is not yet a synchronous nm_client_activate_connection(),
nm_client_add_and_activate_connection(), or
nm_remote_settings_add_connection(), because the existing async code
depends on waiting for other asynchronous events, so making them run
synchronously is slightly more complicated. But these APIs can be
added later.
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.
Port libnm-core/libnm to GDBus.
The NetworkManager daemon continues to use dbus-glib; the
previously-added connection hash/variant conversion methods are now
moved to NetworkManagerUtils (along with a few other utilities that
are now only needed by the daemon code).
NMObject has a system that lets devices and active connections get
created as the correct subtypes (NMDeviceFoo / NMActiveConnection vs
NMVpnConnection). But it was much more generic than it needed to be,
because NMDevice and NMActiveConnection both did the same thing (fetch
a D-Bus property and then look at its value). So move the
property-fetching part into NMObject, and only use the callback for
converting the property value to a GType.
Add _nm_object_class_add_interface(), for declaring that a class
implements a particular interface, and then have NMObject create the
corresponding proxies itself. (The subclass can get a copy with
_nm_object_get_proxy() if it needs it for something).
(In GDBus, creating a proxy is a heavier operation than in dbus-glib,
so we'll need to create the proxies asynchronously. Moving the
creation to NMObject makes that easier since we can do it as part
of the existing init/init_async.)
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.
Use G_TYPE_PTR_ARRAY for GPtrArray-of-NMObject-valued properties,
because it has better introspection/bindings support.
As with the strdict change in libnm-core, we need to manually copy the
array in get_property() implementations, to preserve the standard
semantics that get_property() returns a copy, not the internal array.
(This patch also changes those properties so that they are always
non-NULL until dispose(); previously some of them could be either NULL
or 0-length at different times.)
The NMDevice:state-reason property was awkward to work with since it
was a tuple of two values (state and reason), and likewise, although
we had nm_device_get_state() to return just the state, there was no
corresponding function to get just the reason.
Fix this; make the state-reason property contain just the
NMDeviceStateReason, and make nm_device_get_state_reason() return just
that.
"NetworkManager.h"'s name (and non-standard capitalization) suggest
that it's some sort of high-level super-important header, but it's
really just low-level D-Bus stuff. Rename it to "nm-dbus-interface.h"
and likewise "NetworkManagerVPN.h" to "nm-vpn-dbus-interface.h"
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**.
Rather than having each object type override constructed() to call
_nm_object_register_properties(), have NMObject call a virtual method
on the subclass to ask it to register them.
Move some code around in nm-client.c and nm-object.c so that all
D-Bus-related initialization happens in init_dbus(), and
non-D-Bus-related stuff stays in construct().
(This simplifies the next commit.)
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).
This commit begins creating the new "libnm", which will replace
libnm-util and libnm-glib.
The main reason for the libnm-util/libnm-glib split is that the daemon
needs to link to libnm-util (to get NMSettings, NMConnection, etc),
but can't link to libnm-glib (because it uses many of the same type
names as the NetworkManager daemon. eg, NMDevice). So the daemon links
to only libnm-util, but basically all clients link to both.
With libnm, there will be only a single client-visible library, and
NetworkManager will internally link against a private "libnm-core"
containing the parts that used to be in libnm-util.
(The "libnm-core" parts still need to be in their own directory so
that the daemon can see those header files without also seeing the
ones in libnm/ that conflict with its own headers.)
