We no longer add these. If you use Emacs, configure it yourself.
Also, due to our "smart-tab" usage the editor anyway does a subpar
job handling our tabs. However, on the upside every user can choose
whatever tab-width he/she prefers. If "smart-tabs" are used properly
(like we do), every tab-width will work.
No manual changes, just ran commands:
F=($(git grep -l -e '-\*-'))
sed '1 { /\/\* *-\*- *[mM]ode.*\*\/$/d }' -i "${F[@]}"
sed '1,4 { /^\(#\|--\|dnl\) *-\*- [mM]ode/d }' -i "${F[@]}"
Check remaining lines with:
git grep -e '-\*-'
The ultimate purpose of this is to cleanup our files and eventually use
SPDX license identifiers. For that, first get rid of the boilerplate lines.
Completely refactor the team/JSON handling in libnm's NMSettingTeam and
NMSettingTeamPort.
- team handling was added as rh#1398925. The goal is to have a more
convenient way to set properties than constructing JSON. This requires
libnm to implement the hard task of parsing JSON (and exposing well-understood
properties) and generating JSON (based on these "artificial" properties).
But not only libnm. In particular nmcli and the D-Bus API must make this
"simpler" API accessible.
- since NMSettingTeam and NMSettingTeamPort are conceptually the same,
add "libnm-core/nm-team-utils.h" and NMTeamSetting that tries to
handle the similar code side-by-sdie.
The setting classes now just delegate for everything to NMTeamSetting.
- Previously, there was a very fuzzy understanding of the provided
JSON config. Tighten that up, when setting a JSON config it
regenerates/parses all other properties and tries to make the
best of it. When modifying any abstraction property, the entire
JSON config gets regenerated. In particular, don't try to merge
existing JSON config with the new fields. If the user uses the
abstraction API, then the entire JSON gets replaced.
For example note that nm_setting_team_add_link_watcher() would not
be reflected in the JSON config (a bug). That only accidentally worked
because client would serializing the changed link watcher to
GVariant/D-Bus, then NetworkManager would set it via g_object_set(),
which would renerate the JSON, and finally persist it to disk. But
as far as libnm is concerned, nm_setting_team_add_link_watcher() would
bring the settings instance in an inconsistent state where JSON and
the link watcher property disagree. Setting any property must
immediately update both the JSON and the abstraction API.
- when constucting a team setting from D-Bus, we would previously parse
both "config" and abstraction properties. That is wrong. Since our
settings plugins only support JSON, all information must be present
in the JSON config anyway. So, when "config" is present, only the JSON
must be parsed. In the best case, the other information is redudant and
contributes nothing. In the worse case, they information differs
(which might happen if the client version differs from the server
version). As the settings plugin only supports JSON, it's wrong to
consider redundant, differing information from D-Bus.
- we now only convert string to JSON or back when needed. Previously,
setting a property resulted in parsing several JSON multiple times
(per property). All operations should now scale well and be reasonably
efficient.
- also the property-changed signals are now handled correctly. Since
NMTeamSetting knows the current state of all attributes, it can emit
the exact property changed signals for what changed.
- we no longer use libjansson to generate the JSON. JSON is supposed
to be a machine readable exchange format, hence a major goal is
to be easily handled by applications. While parsing JSON is not so
trivial, writing a well-known set of values to JSON is.
The advantage is that when you build libnm without libjansson support,
then we still can convert the artificial properties to JSON.
- Requiring libjansson in libnm is a burden, because most of the time
it is not needed (as most users don't create team configurations). With
this change we only require it to parse the team settings (no longer to
write them). It should be reasonably simple to use a more minimalistic
JSON parser that is sufficient for us, so that we can get rid of the
libjansson dependency (for libnm). This also avoids the pain that we have
due to the symbol collision of libjansson and libjson-glib.

NMTeamLinkWatcher are immutable and ref-counted.
As such, there is little reason to ever duplicate them. Just increase
the ref-count.
For this change to be safe in all cicumstances, make ref/unref of the
link watcher thread-safe. After all, NMTeamLinkWatcher is public API,
and while libnm generally is not thead-safe, the cost of this is small.
I think initializing structs should (almost) be always done with designated
initializers, because otherwise it's easy to get the order wrong. The
problem is that otherwise the order of fields gets additional meaning
not only for the memory layout, but also for the code that initialize
the structs.
Add a macro NM_VARIANT_ATTRIBUTE_SPEC_DEFINE() that replaces the other
(duplicate) macros. This macro also gets it right to mark the struct as
const.
Merge the function pointer get_func() into to_dbus_fcn().
Previously, get_func() as handled separately from to_dbus_fnc()
(formerly synth_func()). The notion was that synth-func would syntetize
properties that are D-Bus only. But that distinction does not seem
very helpful to me.
Instaed, we want to convert a property to D-Bus. Period. The
implementation should be handled uniformly. Hence, now that is
all done by property_to_dbus().
Note that property_to_dbus() is also called as default implementation
for compare-property. At least, for properties that are backed by a
GObject property.
_nm_utils_team_config_get() determines the type based on the JSON content.
Hence, the caller must validate that the returned GValue is of the expected
type, or it will trigger an assertion/crash.
Use nm_auto*, it's almost always harder to get wrong, because
ownership (and lifetime management of a variable, and what it points
to) is more clearly expressed.
We will need access to the serialization flags from within the synth_func().
That will be for WireGuard's peers. Peers are a list of complex, structured
elements, and some fields (the peer's preshared-key) are secret and
others are not. So when serializing the peers, we need to know whether
to include secrets or not.
Instead of letting _nm_setting_to_dbus() check the flags, pass them
down.
While at it, don't pass the property_name argument. Instead, pass the
entire meta-data information we have. Most synth functions don't care
about the property or the name either way. But we should not pre-filter
information that we have at hand. Just pass it to the synth function.
If the synth function would be public API, that would be a reason to be
careful about what we pass. But it isn't and it only has one caller.
So passing it along is fine. Also, do it now when adding the flags
argument, as we touch all synth implementations anyway.
Note that:
- we compile some source files multiple times. Most notably those
under "shared/".
- we include a default header "shared/nm-default.h" in every source
file. This header is supposed to setup a common environment by defining
and including parts that are commonly used. As we always include the
same header, the header must behave differently depending
one whether the compilation is for libnm-core, NetworkManager or
libnm-glib. E.g. it must include <glib/gi18n.h> or <glib/gi18n-lib.h>
depending on whether we compile a library or an application.
For that, the source files need the NETWORKMANAGER_COMPILATION #define
to behave accordingly.
Extend the define to be composed of flags. These flags are all named
NM_NETWORKMANAGER_COMPILATION_WITH_*, they indicate which part of the
build are available. E.g. when building libnm-core.la itself, then
WITH_LIBNM_CORE, WITH_LIBNM_CORE_INTERNAL, and WITH_LIBNM_CORE_PRIVATE
are available. When building NetworkManager, WITH_LIBNM_CORE_PRIVATE
is not available but the internal parts are still accessible. When
building nmcli, only WITH_LIBNM_CORE (the public part) is available.
This granularily controls the build.
"no_value" indicates that the the attribute is a single word, not a
key=value pair. If the type is BOOLEAN then the attribute is considered
true, if it's a STRING then the key is used instead of a value.
"consumes_rest" indicates that the particular key takes the unparseable
tail of the string for a value.
This allows parsing tc-style strings. Consider this filter:
,------ regular key/value pair
,-----'----.
root handle 1234: matchall action simple foo bar baz
| | `-----------.-----------'
| | `- "", STRING, consumes_rest
| `------------------- "kind", STRING, no_value
`-------------------------------------- "root', BOOLEAN, no_value
This adds definition of a set of known route option attributes to
libnm-core and helper functions.
nm_ip_route_attribute_validate() performs the validation of the
attribute type and, in case of a formatted string attribute, of its
content.
nm_ip_route_get_variant_attribute_spec() returns the attribute format
specifier to be passed to nm_utils_parse_variant_attributes(). Since
at the moment NMIPRoute is the only user of NMVariantAttributeSpec and
the type is opaque to users of the library, the struct is extended to
carry some other data useful for validation.
Various libnm objects (addresses, routes) carry an hash table of
attributes represented as GVariants indexed by name. Add common
routines to convert to and from a string representation.
To parse a string, a knowledge of the supported attributes (and their
types) is needed: we represent it as an opaque type
NMVariantAttributeSpec that callers must query to the library for the
specific object type and pass to the parse function.
Now that we validate the JSON syntax of a team/team-port
configuration, any existing connection with invalid JSON configuration
would fail to load and disappear upon upgrade. Instead, modify the
setting plugins to emit a warning but still load the connection with
empty configuration.
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.

"nm-utils-private.h" should not be used outside of libnm-core/.
core/ should only use public API or "nm-core-internal.h".
Also, "nm-setting-ip-config.h" is a public header and should
not contain internal defines. Move them to "nm-core-internal.h"
too.

Merge NMIP4Address and NMIP6Address into NMIPAddress, and NMIP4Route
and NMIP6Route into NMIPRoute. The new types represent IP addresses as
strings, rather than in binary, and so are address-family agnostic.
Code outside of libnm-core/ should not include the private headers.
nm-core-internal.h should be used instead.

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).
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.
g_strsplit_set() puts empty strings ("") into the resulting string array when
a delimiter character appears as the first or last character in the string or
when there are adjacent delimiter characters. However, this is not what is
useful in most cases.
Change all DBUS_TYPE_G_UCHAR_ARRAY properties to G_TYPE_BYTES, and
update corresponding APIs. Notably, this means they are now refcounted
rather than being copied.
Update the rest of NM for the changes. The daemon still converts SSIDs
to GByteArrays internally, because changing it to use GBytes has lots
of trickle-down effects. It can possibly be changed later.
Make the :addresses and :routes properties be GPtrArrays of
NMIP4Address, etc, rather than just reflecting the D-Bus data.
Make the :dns properties be arrays of strings rather than arrays of
binary IP addresses (and update the corresponding APIs as well).
Change all DBUS_TYPE_G_MAP_OF_STRING properties to G_TYPE_HASH_TABLE,
with annotations indicating they are string->string. Not much outside
libnm-core needs to changed for this, since DBUS_TYPE_G_MAP_OF_STRING
was already represented as a hash table.
(One change needed within libnm-core is that we now need to copy the
hash tables in get_property(), or else the caller will receive a
reffed copy of the object's own hash table, which we don't want.)
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.)
Make all mac-address properties (including NMSettingBluetooth:bdaddr,
NMSettingOlpcMesh:dhcp-anycast-addr, and NMSettingWireless:bssid) be
strings, using _nm_setting_class_transform_property() to handle
translating to/from binary form when dealing with D-Bus.
Update everything accordingly for the change, and also add a test for
transformed setting properties to test-general.
Add a header file to expose private utility functions from libnm-core
that can be used by NetworkManager (core) and libnm.so. The header
is also used to give privileged access to libnm-core. Since NM links
statically, these functions are not exported and not part of public ABI.
This also removes the NM_UTILS_PRIVATE_CALL() macro and libnm.so no
longer exports nm_utils_get_private().
Before, this functionality was partly declared in nm-utils-private.h.
This was wrong because nm-utils-private.h is for functionality
entirely private to libnm-core.

This fixes up the code from the previous "clean" import, and adds
build infrastructure.
[There are two slightly orthogonal sets of changes in this patch.
First, the files added in the previous commit were modified as followed:
# Replace internal references to "libnm-util" and "libnm-glib" with "libnm"
perl -pi -e 's/libnm-(util|glib)/libnm/;' libnm-core/*.[ch] libnm-core/tests/*.[ch] libnm/*.[ch] libnm/tests/*.[ch]
# Fix includes of the enum-types files
perl -pi -e 's/nm-utils-enum-types/nm-core-enum-types/;' libnm-core/*.[ch] libnm-core/tests/*.[ch] libnm/*.[ch] libnm/tests/*.[ch]
perl -pi -e 's/nm-glib-enum-types/nm-enum-types/;' libnm/*.[ch] libnm/tests/*.[ch]
# Fix some python example code
perl -pi -e 's/import NMClient/import NM/;' -e 's/NMClient.Client\(\)/NM.Client()/;' libnm/nm-client.c
Then, the build infrastructure was added (without further modifying
any existing files in libnm-core or libnm.)
Note: to regenerate libnm.ver after rebase:
(head -2 libnm-util/libnm-util.ver; (grep -h '\s'nm_ libnm-util/libnm-util.ver libnm-glib/libnm-glib.ver | env LANG=C sort); tail -3 libnm-util/libnm-util.ver) > libnm/libnm.ver
]
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.)
[This commit just copies the source code from libnm-util/ to
libnm-core/, and libnm-glib/ to libnm/:
mkdir -p libnm-core/tests/
mkdir -p libnm/tests/
cp libnm-util/*.[ch] libnm-util/nm-version.h.in libnm-core/
rm -f libnm-core/nm-version.h libnm-core/nm-setting-template.[ch] libnm-core/nm-utils-enum-types.[ch]

rm -f libnm/libnm_glib.[ch] libnm/libnm-glib-test.c libnm/nm-glib-enum-types.[ch]
cp libnm-glib/tests/*.[ch] libnm/tests/
]
