It's ugly to modify the global behavior of glib to convert between
types. Instead, _get_fcn_gobject_impl() is perfectly capable to implement
converting a strv array to string.
"ipv4.dns-options" and "ipv6.dns-options" are special, in that they can
be either unset/default or an empty list of options. That means, nmcli
must treat these two options differently.
For the (terse) getter, it returns "" for default and " " for empty.
The setter must likewise support and distingish between these two cases.
Cleanup the handling of such options. This only applies to properties of
type "multilist". Hence, add multilist.clear_emptyunset_fcn() handler
that indicates that the property is of that kind.
Try:
nmcli connection modify "$PROFILE" ipv4.dns-options ''
nmcli connection modify "$PROFILE" ipv4.dns-options ' '
and compare the output:
nmcli connection show "$PROFILE" | sed -n '/ipv4.dns-options/ s/.*/<\0>/p'
nmcli -t connection show "$PROFILE" | sed -n '/ipv4.dns-options/ s/.*/<\0>/p'
nmcli -o connection show "$PROFILE" | sed -n '/ipv4.dns-options/ s/.*/<\0>/p'
The link-watcher properties are not expected to contain any special values
that require escaping. Hence, change the tokenizing from plain splitting
at ',' to escaped-tokens style is likely to not affect any existing
setups.
Still, all our properties should be handled the same way (including a
tokenizing which allows escaping to represent every possible value).
The vlanid and missed-max values have non-zero default values.
That is what nm_utils_team_link_watcher_from_string() honors.
Note that nm_utils_team_link_watcher_to_string() must omit printing
the value only if it's the default value too.
Otherwise, these values are not preserved during a to string conversion
and back.
Maybe a better fix would be to always print the values, regardless of
the default value. But arguably, that is quite ugly because in most
cases we don't want to cluter the string output with values that are
left at the default.
These tests cannot (easily) be under "shared/nm-libnm-core-aux/tests"
because libnm/libnm-core requires code under shared while
"nm-libnm-core-aux" requires libnm/libnm-core. With autotools that is
not problem, but with meson we include sub directories in a particular
order and there is no way to foward declare stuff (AFAIK). To avoid
the circular dependency, add the tests to "clients/common/tests", which
is always built last.
to/from string functions are useful. We should be able to reuse them.
Move them to their own location.
Also, it moves independent code out of "clients/common/nm-meta-setting-desc.c"
which is already one of the largest source files we have.
Also, it makes the code unit-testable, which is obviously required
as the code has bugs.
If a user disables networking, we consider that as an indication that
also software devices must be disconnected. OTOH, we don't want to
destroy them for external events as a system suspend.
When networking is disabled at NM startup we unmanage all devices
(including software ones) due to SLEEPING. After networking gets
enabled again we must clear the unmanaged-sleeping flag on software
devices.
When we do an in-tree-build with autotools and an out-of-tree build
with meson (all in the same source directory), then we have the
following files:
libnm-core/nm-core-enum-types.h
libnm/nm-enum-types.h
build/libnm-core/nm-core-enum-types.h
build/libnm/nm-enum-types.h
This caused "tools/check-docs.sh" for `ninja -C build test` to fail,
because the files are detected twice:
--- command ---
/data/src/NetworkManager/tools/check-docs.sh /data/src/NetworkManager /data/src/NetworkManager/build
--- stderr ---

After 1.18.0 is released, merge it back into master so that
1.18.0 is part of the history of master. That means,
$ git log --first-parent master
will also traverse 1.18.0 and 1.18-rc*.
Also bump the micro version to 1.19.1-dev to indicate that this is
after 1.18.0 is out.
We also generate a source tarball and artifact it.
Hence, we need proper gtk-doc links. This requires files in
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html for adding cross links. Install glib2-doc
package.
Note that in containers dnf is configured to not install documentation
files. We need to override that.

We don't want stesp to return an error, which is what
"test && cmd" does, if the test evaluates to false.
Instead, use "! test || cmd" which has more the semantics
that we want.

Most of the caller won't require a deep-clone of the attribute
names. Likely, the fetch the name, so they can lookup the attributes.
In that common case, there is no need to clone the strings themself.

The fake-typelib is not really essential. Don't fix it, just print
a warning that we are unable to build it.
With glib < 2.51.3, gdbus-codegen does not understand "--output-directory" [1].
Hence, the generated files are like
"build/dbus-org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.WifiP2P.xml"
instead of
"build/introspection/dbus-org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.WifiP2P.xml"
But gnome.gdbus_codegen() returns a path as if it would be inside
"build/introspection". Hack around that, by patching the correct path
otherwise. This is still ugly, because repeated "ninja -C build" calls
will always try to rebuild this target (because the wrong file name
is considered).

The library is called "libnm_core". So the dependency should be called
"libnm_core_dep", like in all other cases.
(cherry picked from commit c27ad37c27)
"libnm-core" implements common functionality for "NetworkManager" and
"libnm".
Note that clients like "nmcli" cannot access the internal API provided
by "libnm-core". So, if nmcli wants to do something that is also done by
"libnm-core", , "libnm", or "NetworkManager", the code would have to be
duplicated.
Instead, such code can be in "libnm-libnm-core-{intern|aux}.la".
Note that:
0) "libnm-libnm-core-intern.la" is used by libnm-core itsself.
On the other hand, "libnm-libnm-core-aux.la" is not used by
libnm-core, but provides utilities on top of it.
1) they both extend "libnm-core" with utlities that are not public
API of libnm itself. Maybe part of the code should one day become
public API of libnm. On the other hand, this is code for which
we may not want to commit to a stable interface or which we
don't want to provide as part of the API.
2) "libnm-libnm-core-intern.la" is statically linked by "libnm-core"
and thus directly available to "libnm" and "NetworkManager".
On the other hand, "libnm-libnm-core-aux.la" may be used by "libnm"
and "NetworkManager".
Both libraries may be statically linked by libnm clients (like
nmcli).
3) it must only use glib, libnm-glib-aux.la, and the public API
of libnm-core.
This is important: it must not use "libnm-core/nm-core-internal.h"
nor "libnm-core/nm-utils-private.h" so the static library is usable
by nmcli which couldn't access these.
Note that "shared/nm-meta-setting.c" is an entirely different case,
because it behaves differently depending on whether linking against
"libnm-core" or the client programs. As such, this file must be compiled
twice.
(cherry picked from commit af07ed01c0)
From the files under "shared/nm-utils" we build an internal library
that provides glib-based helper utilities.
Move the files of that basic library to a new subdirectory
"shared/nm-glib-aux" and rename the helper library "libnm-core-base.la"
to "libnm-glib-aux.la".
Reasons:
- the name "utils" is overused in our code-base. Everything's an
"utils". Give this thing a more distinct name.
- there were additional files under "shared/nm-utils", which are not
part of this internal library "libnm-utils-base.la". All the files
that are part of this library should be together in the same
directory, but files that are not, should not be there.
- the new name should better convey what this library is and what is isn't:
it's a set of utilities and helper functions that extend glib with
funcitonality that we commonly need.
There are still some files left under "shared/nm-utils". They have less
a unifying propose to be in their own directory, so I leave them there
for now. But at least they are separate from "shared/nm-glib-aux",
which has a very clear purpose.
(cherry picked from commit 80db06f768)
We built (among others) two libraries from the sources in "shared/nm-utils":
"libnm-utils-base.la" and "libnm-utils-udev.la".
It's confusing. Instead use directories so there is a direct
correspondence between these internal libraries and the source files.
