allow to specify the DUID to be used int the DHCPv6 client identifier
option: the dhcp-duid property accepts either a hex string or the
special values "lease", "llt", "ll", "stable-llt", "stable-ll" and
"stable-uuid".
"lease": give priority to the DUID available in the lease file if any,
otherwise fallback to a global default dependant on the dhcp
client used. This is the default and reflects how the DUID
was managed previously.
"ll": enforce generation and use of LL type DUID based on the current
hardware address.
"llt": enforce generation and use of LLT type DUID based on the current
hardware address and a stable time field.
"stable-ll": enforce generation and use of LL type DUID based on a
link layer address derived from the stable id.
"stable-llt": enforce generation and use of LLT type DUID based on
a link layer address and a timestamp both derived from the
stable id.
"stable-uuid": enforce generation and use of a UUID type DUID based on a
uuid generated from the stable id.
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.
binary-search can find an index of a matching entry in a sorted
list. However, if the list contains multiple entries that compare
equal, it can be interesting to find the first/last entry. For example,
if you want to append new items after the last.
Extend binary search to optionally continue the binary search
to determine the range that compares equal.
We want to support large number of routes. Reduce the number
of copies, by adding internal accessor functions.
Also, work around a complaint from coverity:
46. NetworkManager-1.9.2/libnm-core/nm-utils.c:1987:
dereference: Dereferencing a null pointer "names".
GArray's and GPtrArray's plen argument is unsigned. The index variable
to iterate the list, should not have a smaller range (or different data type).
Also, assert against negative idx argument.
The previous parsing was done using regex. One could implement a
complex regex to parse the setting. However, as it was implemented,
the regex would just pick out parts of the line that it expects,
and ignore unknown parts.
Let's be strict about what we parse. The only strong requirement
is that NM can parse everything that was written by NM itself.
Eventually, we could extend the parser to accept everything that
initscripts accept.
Initscripts split the line at $IFS and do filename globbing on the
arguments. That is ugly, because globbing is of coures wrong (we don't
do that). But also, the splitting at $IFS cannot be escaped, hence for
initscripts it is impossible to use '<space><tab><newline>'. We do that
too, as it makes it easy to parse. Later we may want to extend this to
allow a form of escaping/quoting.
Yes, we may now ignore routes that are not defined as we expect them.
Using plain numbers make it cumbersome to grep for
setting types by priority.
The only downside is, that with the enum values it
is no longer obvious which value has higher or lower
priority.
Also, introduce NM_SETTING_PRIORITY_INVALID. This is what
_nm_setting_type_get_base_type_priority() returns. For the moment
it still has the same numerical value 0 as before. Later, that
shall be distinct from NM_SETTING_PRIORITY_CONNECTION.
If there is value in such a helper function (there is), then
it should go alongside the other nm_connection_get_setting*()
helpers. NMDevice is already large enough.
libnm contains the public function nm_utils_enum_from_str() et al.
The function is not flexible enough for nmcli's usecase. So, I would
need another public function like nm_utils_enum_from_str_full() that
has an extended API.
That was already required previously for ifcfg-rh writer, but in that
case I could just add it as internal API as libnm-core is linked statically
with NetworkManager.
I don't want to commit to a public API for an utility function. So move
the code instead to the shared directory, so that nmcli may link
statically against it and use the internal API.
Having a bridge-port/team-port setting for a connection that
has a different slave-type makes no sense. Such a configuration
shall be considered invalid, and be fixed by normalization.
Note that there is already a normalization the other way around,
when you omit the "slave-type" but a "master" and one(!) port-type
setting is present, the slave-type is automatically determined
based on the port-type.
The use of this is of course to modify an existing slave connection
to make it a non-slave. Then the invalid port settings should be
automatically removed.
Previously, ifcfg-rh writer would write the "BRIDGING_OPTS" setting
without a "BRIDGE". The reader would then (correctly) ignore the
bridge-port. Avoid that altogehter, by requiring the connection to
strictly verify.
Unfortunately nm_utils_enum_to_str() doesn't allow to specify the
separator between enum values. Since the function is public API and
can't be modified now, add a new internal function which accepts the
separator as argument.
The new NMSettingMacsec contains information necessary to establish a
MACsec connection. At the moment we support two different MACsec
modes, both using wpa_supplicant: PSK and EAP.
PSK mode is based on a static CAK key for the MACsec key agreement
protocol, while EAP mode derives keys from a 802.1x authentication and
thus requires the presence of a NMSetting8021x in the connection.
_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.
libnm-core has been expanded to include proxy settings which clients
like nmcli, nm-connection-editor use to configure proxy in PacRunner. It
offers three modes i.e 'auto', 'manual'and 'none' and accordingly take
data to configure PacRunner. The modes matches on the PacRunner side too.
Since we possibly already link against libjansson, we can also expose some
helper utils which allows nmcli to do basic validation of JSON without
requiring to duplicate the effort of using libjansson.
Also, tighten up the cecks to ensure that we have a JSON object at hand.
We are really interested in that and not of arrays or literals.
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.
- don't include "nm-default.h" in header files. Every source file must
include as first header "nm-default.h", thus our headers get the
default include already implicitly.
- we don't support compiling NetworkManager itself with a C++ compiler. Remove
G_BEGIN_DECLS/G_END_DECLS from internal headers. We do however support
users of libnm to use C++, thus they stay in public headers.
(cherry picked from commit f19aff8909)
We print an error when the write of a bond options fails as this is
considered an effect of a wrong configuration (or a bug in the checks
done by NM) that the user should notice. But not all options are
supported in all bonding modes and so we ignore some unsupported
options for the current mode to avoid populating logs with useless
errors.
Improve the code there by using a more generic approach and
synchronize the mode/option compatibility table with kernel (file
drivers/net/bonding/bond_options.c).
