Coverity complains:
CID 59386 (#1 of 1): Dereference before null check (REVERSE_INULL)
check_after_deref: Null-checking cons suggests that it may be null, but it has
already been dereferenced on all paths leading to the check.
Make it possible to change ethernet.mtu and
ethernet.cloned-mac-address properties of tun/tap devices
(cloned-mac-address is meaningful only for taps).
- it controls echoing passwords input on terminal
- it replaces --show-secrets in 'nmcli connection show', which is deprecated now
- it replaces --show-password in 'nmcli device wifi hotspot', which is deprecated now
Synopsis:
nmcli connection clone [--temporary] [id|uuid|path] <ID> <new name>
It copies the <ID> connection as <new name>. The command is very useful
if there is a connection, but another one is needed for a related
configuration. One can copy the existing profile and modify it for the
new situation.
For example:
$ nmcli con clone main-eth second-eth
$ nmcli con modify second-eth connection.interface-name em4

Example:
before:
$ nmcli c add type gsm con-nameX aaa ifname fsd
Error: 'ifname' argument is required.
now:
$ nmcli c add type gsm con-nameX aaa ifname fsd
Error: mandatory 'ifname' not seen before 'con-nameX'.
When a VLAN connection was added with command:
nmcli c add type vlan ifname v10 id 10 dev 00:11:22:33:44:55
nmcli tried to assign a byte-array value to the ethernet.mac-address
string property, resulting in a invalid connection which failed to
verify. Fix this and set the value as plain string.
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).
