With --make-first|-m we first call `make` on the test.
However, the make path must be a relative path rooted
in the top directory.
Make sure we `cd` into the parent directory first and pass
the proper make path.

For example for tun devices we get a lot of
(tun7): hw-addr: failed reading current MAC address
warnings. Just be silent about it. We log when something
changes, we don't need to log when we fail to obtain
a MAC address.
Thereby, refactor nm_device_update_hw_address() to return early.
The unmanaged flags PLATFORM_INIT indicates whether UDEV is done
initializing the device. We should not handle IP config changes
before that pointer.
This avoids codepaths that require the permanent MAC address of the
device. We should not freeze the permanent MAC address before
UDEV initialized the device, for two reasons:
- getting the permanent MAC address using ethtool is racy as
UDEV might still rename the interface.
- freezing a fake permanent MAC address should only happen after
UDEV is done configuring the MAC address of software devices.

Before the link is initialized, that is before UDEV completed
initializing the device, we should not evaluate the user-settings
unmanaged flags.
The reason is, that evaluating it likely involves looking at the
permanent MAC address, which might use the wrong fake MAC address
(before UDEV set the right one). Also, it might use the wrong ifname
to lookup the permanent MAC address via ethtool.
The permanent MAC address of an NMDevice shall not change as
long as the device is realized. That is, we read it only once
and don't change it afterwards.
There are two issues that this commit tries to mitigate:
(1) users are advised to use UDEV to rename interfaces. As we lookup
the permenent MAC address using ethtool (which uses the interface
name), there is a race where we could read the permanent MAC
address using the wrong interface name. We should wait until
UDEV finished initializing the device and until the interface
name is stable (see rh#1388286).
This commit still cannot avoid the race of ethtool entirely. It only
tries to avoid ethtool until UDEV has done its work. That is, until we
expect the interface name no longer to change.
(2) some device types, don't have a permanent MAC address so we fall
back to use the currently set address (fake). Again, users are advised
to use UDEV to configure the MAC addresses on such software devices.
Thus, we should not get the fake MAC address until UDEV initialized
the device.
This patch actually doesn't solve the problem at all yet.
The reason is that a regular caller of nm_device_get_permanent_hw_address() can
not afford to wait until UDEV settled. Thus, any user who requests the
permanent MAC address before the link is initialized, runs into the
problems above.
In a next step, we shall revisit such calls to nm_device_get_permanent_hw_address()
and delay them until the link is initialized.
We repeatedly call nm_device_update_hw_address() to reset the cached
MAC address of the device. However, we don't allow changing the address
length once it is set.
Multiple entities (initial, current and permanent MAC address) are all
checked to have the same address length. Changing the length would be a
very strange thing (and probably indicate a bug somewhere else).
Just don't allow that.
On devices that have no real permanent hardware address (as returned
by ethtool), we take the current MAC address of the device.
Currently, NM is a bit flaky about whether to accept such fake permanent
addresses for settings like keyfile.unmanaged-devices or the per-
connection property ethernet.mac-address. Probably, we should allow
using fake addresses there in general.
However, that leads to problems because NetworkManager itself changes
the current MAC address of such devices. For example when
configuing
keyfile.unmanaged-device=22:33:44:55:66:77
and later activating a connection with
ethernet.cloned-mac-address=22:33:44:55:66:77
we have a strange situation after restart and the device becomes
unmanaged.
We are going to avoid that, by remembering the fake permanent address
in the device state file.
This only matters:
- for devices that don't have a real permanent address (veth)
- if the user or NetworkManager itself changed the MAC address
of the device
- after a restart of NetworkManager, without reboot. A reboot
clears the device state for /var/run/NetworkManager.
_nm_utils_hwaddr_length() did a validation of the string
and returned the length of the address. In all cases where
we were interested in that, we also either want to validate
the address, get the address in binary form, or canonicalize
the address.
We can avoid these duplicate checks, by using _nm_utils_hwaddr_aton()
which both does the parsing and returning the length.
We usually don't build NM with g_assert() disabled (G_DISABLE_ASSERT).
But even if we would, there is no assertion macro that always evaluates
the condition for possible side effects.
I think that is a useful thing to have.
Since connection.autoconnect-slaves was introduced, we only allowed it
to autoactivate slaves for connections that were not slave themselves.
It seems useful to remove such limitation, but we must prevent an
infinite loop if there is a circular dependency between connections.

This allows to get rid of the dhclient requirement of NetworkManager
package and moves the package dependency to the new sub package
NetworkManager-config-dhcp-dhclient.
For the moment, I think dhclient should still be the default choice for
regular users due to dhclient providing better better previledge separation
of network facing code. A user who knows that he's doing, can now however
remove dhclient while keeping NetworkManager.

When running under load (e.g. with parallel make and valgrind
enabled), the checked time interval might be too short. Relax
the assertion
