Backported symbols only make sense for libnm itself, not for
libnm-core which is statically linked with NetworkManager and
nm-ifcace-helper. Declaring the symbols in libnm-core, means
that NetworkManager binary also contains them, although there
are not used.
Move them to libnm.
Extend the "ethernet.cloned-mac-address" and "wifi.cloned-mac-address"
settings. Instead of specifying an explicit MAC address, the additional
special values "permanent", "preserve", "random", "random-bia", "stable" and
"stable-bia" are supported.
"permanent" means to use the permanent hardware address. Previously that
was the default if no explict cloned-mac-address was set. The default is
thus still "permanent", but it can be overwritten by global
configuration.
"preserve" means not to configure the MAC address when activating the
device. That was actually the default behavior before introducing MAC
address handling with commit 1b49f941a6.
"random" and "random-bia" use a randomized MAC address for each
connection. "stable" and "stable-bia" use a generated, stable
address based on some token. The "bia" suffix says to generate a
burned-in address. The stable method by default uses as token the
connection UUID, but the token can be explicitly choosen via
"stable:<TOKEN>" and "stable-bia:<TOKEN>".
On a D-Bus level, the "cloned-mac-address" is a bytestring and thus
cannot express the new forms. It is replaced by the new
"assigned-mac-address" field. For the GObject property, libnm's API,
nmcli, keyfile, etc. the old name "cloned-mac-address" is still used.
Deprecating the old field seems more complicated then just extending
the use of the existing "cloned-mac-address" field, although the name
doesn't match well with the extended meaning.
There is some overlap with the "wifi.mac-address-randomization" setting.

The Network_ID for generating RFC 7217 stable privacy IPv6 addresses
is by default the UUID of the connection.
Alternatively, prefer "connection.stable-id" as Network_ID to generate
the stable addresses. This allows to configure a set of connections that
all use the same Network_ID for generating stable addresses.
Note that the stable-id and the UUID do no overlap, that is two
connections
[connection]
uuid=uuid1
stable-id=
and
[connection]
uuid=uuid2
stable-id=uuid1
generate distinct addresses.
This new property be used as token to generate stable-ids instead
of the connection's UUID.
Later, this will be used by ipv6.addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy,
ethernet.cloned-mac-address=stable, and wifi.cloned-mac-address=stable
setting. Those generate stable addresses based on the connection's
UUID, but allow to use the stable-id instead.
This allows multiple connections to generate the same addresses
-- on the same machine, because in the above cases a machine
dependant key is also hashed.
In some situations, we want strict checking of errors, for example when
NetworkManager receives a new connection from a client, the connection
must make sense as a whole (and since NetworkManager service is backward
compatible to the clients and not the other way around, there is no
excuse for sending invalid data to the server).
In other situations, we want a best-effort behavior. Like when
NetworkManager sends a connection to its clients, those clients
want to extract as many properties as they understand, but in order
to be forward compatible against newer server versions, invalid
or unknown properties must be accepted.
Previously, a mixture of both was done. Some issues caused a failure
to create a new NMSetting, other invalid parts were just silently
ignored or triggered a g_warning() in glib.
Now allow for both. When doing strict-validation, be more strict and
reject all unknown properties and catch when the user sets an invalid
argument. On the other hand, allow for a best-effort mode that
effectively cannot fail and will return a new NMSetting instance.
For now, add NMSettingParseFlags so that the caller can choose the
old behavior, strict parsing, or best effort.
This patch doesn't have any externally visible change except that
no more g_warnings will be emitted.
- 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
- "gsystem-local-alloc.h" and <gio/gio.h> are already included via
"nm-default.h". No need to include them separately.
- include "nm-macros-internal.h" via "nm-default.h" and drop all
explict includes.
- in the modified files, ensure that we always include "config.h"
and "nm-default.h" first. As second, include the header file
for the current source file (if applicable). Then follow external
includes and finally internal nm includes.
- include nm headers inside source code files with quotes
- internal header files don't need to include default headers.
They can savely assume that "nm-default.h" is already included
and with it glib, nm-glib.h, nm-macros-internal.h, etc.
Add the 'lldp' property to NMSettingConnection, which specifies
whether the reception and parsing of LLDP frames to discover neighbor
devices should be enabled.
API should be added with "Since:" of the next release on the same branch.
That means, new API on 1.1 branch (development), should be "Since: 1.2"
and new API on 1.0 branch (stable) will be "Since: 1.0.x". Similarly, new
API on master is NM_AVAILABLE_IN_1_2 and will be added with the linker
version libnl_1_2 -- never the versions of minor releases.
It is also strongly advised that for the 1.0 branch, we only add API
that was previously formerly added on master. IOW, that we only do true
backports of API that already exists on master.
API that gets backported, must also be added to master via NM_BACKPORT_SYMBOL().
That gives ABI compatibility and an application that was build against 1.0.x
will work with 1.y.z version (y > 0) without need for recompiling -- provided
that 1.y.z also contains that API.
There is one important caveat: if a major branch (e.g. current master) has a
linker section of backported APIs (e.g. libnm_1_0_6), we must do the minor release
(1.0.6) before the next major release (1.2). The reason is that after the major
release, the linker section (libnm_1_0_6) must not be extended and thus
the minor release (1.0.6) must be already released at that point.
In general, users should avoid using backported API because it limits
the ability to upgrade to arbitrary later versions. But together with the
previous point (that we only backport API to minor releases), a user that
uses backported API can be sure that a 1.y.z version is ABI compatible with
1.0.x, if the 1.y.z release date was after the release date of 1.0.x.
This reverts commit 02a136682c.
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.
When ping is launched to check the connectivity to the gateway it may
return earlier than the given timeout in case of error. When this
happens we need to respawn it until the timeout is reached.
While at it, increase maximum timeout value to 600 seconds.

AUTOCONNECT_SLAVES is an NetworkManager extension. initscripts always activate
slaves with the master connection for bond and team, and doesn't activate
automatically slaves for bridge.
NetworkManager behaviour is controlled by this variable. If the variable is
missing the default value from configuration file is used.
The property is used for controlling whether slaves should be brought up with
a master connection. If 0, activating the master will not activate slaves.
But if set to 1, activating the master will bring up slaves as well.
The property can have the third state (-1), meaning that the value is default.
That is either a value set in the configuration file for the property, or 0.
Add a 'metered' enum property to NMSettingConnection with possible
values: unknown,yes,no. The value indicates the presence of limitations
in the amount of traffic flowing through the connection.
Move the settings/plugins doc generation from libnm-util to
libnm-core, since libnm-util isn't being updated for all new
properties.
With this commit, the keyfile and ifcfg-rh documentation is basically
unchanged, except that deprecated properties are now gone, and new
properties have been added, and the sections are in a different order.
(generate-plugin-docs.pl just outputs the settings in Makefile order,
and they were unsorted in libnm-util, but are sorted in libnm-core).
The settings documentation used for nm-settings.5, the D-Bus API docs,
and the nmcli help is changed a bit more at this point, and mostly for
the worse, since the libnm-core setting properties don't match up with
the D-Bus API as well as the libnm-util ones do. To be fixed...
(I also removed the "plugins docs" line in each plugin docs comment
block while moving them, since those blocks will be used for more than
just plugins soon, and it's sort of obvious anyway.)
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.)
nm_setting_verify() took a GSList of other NMSettings, but really it
would just be simpler all around to pass the NMConnection instead...
This means that several formerly NMSetting-branded functions that
operated on lists-of-settings now get replaced with
NMConnection-branded functions instead.
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.
Each setting type was defining its own error type, but most of them
had exactly the same three errors ("unknown", "missing property", and
"invalid property"), and none of the other values was of much use
programmatically anyway.
So, this commit merges NMSettingError, NMSettingAdslError, etc, all
into NMConnectionError. (The reason for merging into NMConnectionError
rather than NMSettingError is that we also already have
"NMSettingsError", for errors related to the settings service, so
"NMConnectionError" is a less-confusable name for settings/connection
errors than "NMSettingError".)
Also, make sure that all of the affected error messages are localized,
and (where appropriate) prefix them with the relevant property name.
Renamed error codes:
NM_SETTING_ERROR_PROPERTY_NOT_FOUND -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_PROPERTY_NOT_FOUND
NM_SETTING_ERROR_PROPERTY_NOT_SECRET -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_PROPERTY_NOT_SECRET
Remapped error codes:
NM_SETTING_*_ERROR_MISSING_PROPERTY -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_MISSING_PROPERTY
NM_SETTING_*_ERROR_INVALID_PROPERTY -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_INVALID_PROPERTY
NM_SETTING_ERROR_PROPERTY_TYPE_MISMATCH -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_INVALID_PROPERTY
NM_SETTING_BLUETOOTH_ERROR_TYPE_SETTING_NOT_FOUND -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_INVALID_SETTING
NM_SETTING_BOND_ERROR_INVALID_OPTION -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_INVALID_PROPERTY

NM_SETTING_IP4_CONFIG_ERROR_NOT_ALLOWED_FOR_METHOD -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_INVALID_PROPERTY
NM_SETTING_IP6_CONFIG_ERROR_NOT_ALLOWED_FOR_METHOD -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_INVALID_PROPERTY
NM_SETTING_VLAN_ERROR_INVALID_PARENT -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_INVALID_PROPERTY
NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_SECURITY_ERROR_MISSING_802_1X_SETTING -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_MISSING_SETTING
NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_SECURITY_ERROR_LEAP_REQUIRES_802_1X -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_INVALID_PROPERTY
NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_SECURITY_ERROR_LEAP_REQUIRES_USERNAME -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_MISSING_PROPERTY
NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_SECURITY_ERROR_SHARED_KEY_REQUIRES_WEP -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_INVALID_PROPERTY
NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_ERROR_CHANNEL_REQUIRES_BAND -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_MISSING_PROPERTY
Dropped error codes (were previously defined but unused):
NM_SETTING_CDMA_ERROR_MISSING_SERIAL_SETTING
NM_SETTING_CONNECTION_ERROR_IP_CONFIG_NOT_ALLOWED
NM_SETTING_GSM_ERROR_MISSING_SERIAL_SETTING
NM_SETTING_PPP_ERROR_REQUIRE_MPPE_NOT_ALLOWED

Rename NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_UNKNOWN to NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_FAILED,
following GError best practices.
Replace NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_CONNECTION_SETTING_NOT_FOUND ("no
NMSettingConnection") with a more generic
NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_MISSING_SETTING. Use that new code in a few places
that had previously been using NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_SETTING_NOT_FOUND,
which was supposed to mean "the setting that you asked about doesn't
exist", not "the connection is invalid because it's missing a required
setting".
Clarify that NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_INVALID_SETTING can be used for any
"invalid or inappropriate NMSetting", not just a "conflicting" one.
(But fix a case in nm_connection_update_secrets() that was returning
INVALID_SETTING when it should have been return-if-failing instead.)
For both MISSING_SETTING and INVALID_SETTING, always prefix the error
message with "setting-name: ", just like we do with the various
NMSetting MISSING_PROPERTY and INVALID_PROPERTY errors. And make sure
that the error message is marked for localization.
Drop NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_CONNECTION_TYPE_INVALID, which is pretty
pointless; it was only used in the case where connection.type was the
name of a valid setting type that is not a base setting type. Instead,
just return NM_SETTING_CONNECTION_ERROR_INVALID_PROPERTY for
connection.type in this case (which is what the code already did when
connection.type was completely unrecognized).
The autoconnect priority has only any relevance, if the connection
is autoconnect too.
The priority defaults to zero, with higher numbers meaning preferred.
The valid range is limited to [-999,999].

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.
It needs to be possible to deserialize a connection hash into an
invalid NMConnection; in particular, AddAndActivateConnection()
explicitly allows this.
Previously, the SetFunc and NotSetFunc passed to
_nm_setting_class_override_property() could return a verification
error immediately, but this functionality has to go away if we're
going to be able to deserialize invalid connections.
That functionality was only used in the handling of invalid virtual
interface names; reorganize how that code works so that
NMSettingConnection does all of the verification itself. (The code to
make sure that it returned the "correct" error domain in that case
turned out to be irrelevant, since the setting error domains don't get
serialized over D-Bus correctly anyway.)
Change all DBUS_TYPE_G_LIST_OF_STRING and DBUS_TYPE_G_ARRAY_OF_STRING
properties to G_TYPE_STRV, and update everything accordingly.
(This doesn't actually require using
_nm_setting_class_transform_property(); dbus-glib is happy to transform
between 'as' and G_TYPE_STRV.)
NMParamSpecSpecialized existed basically to provide a version of
GParamSpecBoxed that could compare dbus-glib-valued properties
correctly.
However, g_param_values_cmp() was only used by NM directly in one
place (NMSetting's compare_property()), and we don't actually need to
indirect through GParamSpec there; we could just call
NMParamSpecSpecialized's value-comparison function directly.
So, change all NMParamSpecSpecialized properties to GParamSpecBoxed,
rename the _gvalues_compare() function it used to
"nm_property_compare()", and use that from NMSetting.
(g_param_values_cmp() also gets used internally by
g_param_value_defaults(), but all NMParamSpecSpecialized properties
have a default value of NULL, so GParamSpecBoxed's pointer-equality
check will do the job just fine there.)
Remove the virtual :interface-name properties and their getters, and
use property overrides to do backward-compat handling when
serializing/deserializing.
Now when constructing an NMConnection from a hash, if the virtual
property is set and the NMSettingConnection property isn't, then the
override for NMSettingConnection:interface-name will set that property
to the value of the virtual interface-name. And when converting an
NMConnection to a hash, the overrides for the virtual properties will
return the value of NMSettingConnection:interface-name.
Simplify the use of _nm_register_setting() by having it splice
together various symbol names itself rather than requiring them to be
specified explicitly, and extend it to also ensure that the type's
corresponding error type is registered (allowing one to find it via
g_type_from_name() if necessary).
verify() used to modify interface-name of the base settings. This is
discouraged, because verify() should not touch the connection.
For libnm-core we can change behavior and only modify the connection
in normalize().
Also, be more strict not to verify() sucessfully on invalid
interface-name.

Some NMSettingConnection:slave-type types require a matching slave #NMSetting.

existing slave-setting depending on the slave-type.

Partly it was already there. This makes NMSettingConnection:verify() stricter
then before, but validates the same as of NMConnection:_nm_connection_verify().

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.)
