Sometimes these function may set errno to unexpected values like EAGAIN.
This causes confusion. Avoid that by using our own wrappers that retry
in that case. For example, in rhbz#1797915 we have failures like:
errno = 0;
v = g_ascii_strtoll ("10", 0, &end);
if (errno != 0)
g_assert_not_reached ();
as g_ascii_strtoll() would return 10, but also set errno to EAGAIN.
Work around that by using wrapper functions that retry. This certainly
should be fixed in glib (or glibc), but the issues are severe enough to
warrant a workaround.
Note that our workarounds are very defensive. We only retry 2 times, if
we get an unexpected errno value. This is in the hope to recover from
a spurious EAGAIN. It won't recover from other errors.

nm_utils_is_valid_iface_name() is a public API of libnm-core, let's use
our internal API.
$ sed -i 's/\<nm_utils_is_valid_iface_name\>/nm_utils_ifname_valid_kernel/g' $(git grep -l nm_utils_is_valid_iface_name)
Once we know the outcome of the check, just return it instead of
falling though to return a variable "good" which was initialized
two pages earlier.
Also, avoid the "default" switch case. This way, we get a compiler
warning about missing enum values.
This essentially aligns the implementation with the documentation.
It is also rather useful, since it allows us to use the value returned
by nm_setting_wired_get_mac_address() directly, and that one can indeed
be NULL.
The library should not print to stdout/stderr. This function is used to
convert untrusted(!!) input to a normalized and sanitized strv array.
g_warning() is essentially an assertion, and it's wrong to do that
for untrusted data. If the caller had to pre-validate the array, then
having this function would be pointless.
This is a complete refactoring of the bluetooth code.
Now that BlueZ 4 support was dropped, the separation of NMBluezManager
and NMBluez5Manager makes no sense. They should be merged.
At that point, notice that BlueZ 5's D-Bus API is fully centered around
D-Bus's ObjectManager interface. Using that interface, we basically only
call GetManagedObjects() once and register to InterfacesAdded,
InterfacesRemoved and PropertiesChanged signals. There is no need to
fetch individual properties ever.
Note how NMBluezDevice used to query the D-Bus properties itself by
creating a GDBusProxy. This is redundant, because when using the ObjectManager
interfaces, we have all information already.
Instead, let NMBluezManager basically become the client-side cache of
all of BlueZ's ObjectManager interface. NMBluezDevice was mostly concerned
about caching the D-Bus interface's state, tracking suitable profiles
(pan_connection), and moderate between bluez and NMDeviceBt.
These tasks don't get simpler by moving them to a seprate file. Let them
also be handled by NMBluezManager.
I mean, just look how it was previously: NMBluez5Manager registers to
ObjectManager interface and sees a device appearing. It creates a
NMBluezDevice object and registers to its "initialized" and
"notify:usable" signal. In the meantime, NMBluezDevice fetches the
relevant information from D-Bus (although it was already present in the
data provided by the ObjectManager) and eventually emits these usable
and initialized signals.
Then, NMBlue5Manager emits a "bdaddr-added" signal, for which NMBluezManager
creates the NMDeviceBt instance. NMBluezManager, NMBluez5Manager and
NMBluezDevice are strongly cooperating to the point that it is simpler
to merge them.
This is not mere refactoring. This patch aims to make everything
asynchronously and always cancellable. Also, it aims to fix races
and inconsistencies of the state.
- Registering to a NAP server now waits for the response and delays
activation of the NMDeviceBridge accordingly.
- For NAP connections we now watch the bnep0 interface in platform, and tear
down the device when it goes away. Bluez doesn't send us a notification
on D-Bus in that case.
- Rework establishing a DUN connection. It no longer uses blocking
connect() and does not block until rfcomm device appears. It's
all async now. It also watches the rfcomm file descriptor for
POLLERR/POLLHUP to notice disconnect.
- drop nm_device_factory_emit_component_added() and instead let
NMDeviceBt directly register to the WWan factory's "added" signal.
NM didn't support wpa-none for years because kernel drivers used to be
broken. Note that it wasn't even possible to *add* a connection with
wpa-none because it was rejected in nm_settings_add_connection_dbus().
Given that wpa-none is also deprecated in wpa_supplicant and is
considered insecure, drop altogether any reference to it.
Rejecting %NULL for a "is-a" function can be annoying. Of course, %NULL is
not a valid name. But it's sufficient that the function just returns
%FALSE in that case, and not assert against the input not being %NULL.
Asserting might be useful to catch bugs, but rejecting %NULL as input
is more cumbersome to the caller than helping with catching bugs.
Something similar was also recently done for nm_utils_is_uuid().
We usually want to combine the fields from "struct timespec" to
have one timestamp in either nanoseconds or milliseconds.
Use nm_utils_clock_gettime_*() util for that.
For a "is" check, it's inconvenient to assert against the parameter
being %NULL. We should accept %NULL and just say that it's not a valid
uuid.
This relaxes previous API.
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.

Kernel calls the netlink attribute TCA_FQ_CODEL_MEMORY_LIMIT. Likewise,
iproute2 calls this "memory_limit".
Rename because TC parameters are inherrently tied to the kernel
implementation and we should use the familiar name.
