Add a new option that allows to activate a profile multiple times
(at the same time). Previoulsy, all profiles were implicitly
NM_SETTING_CONNECTION_MULTI_CONNECT_SINGLE, meaning, that activating
a profile that is already active will deactivate it first.
This will make more sense, as we also add more match-options how
profiles can be restricted to particular devices. We already have
connection.type, connection.interface-name, and (ethernet|wifi).mac-address
to restrict a profile to particular devices. For example, it is however
not possible to specify a wildcard like "eth*" to match a profile to
a set of devices by interface-name. That is another missing feature,
and once we extend the matching capabilities, it makes more sense to
activate a profile multiple times.
See also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997998, which
previously changed that a connection is restricted to a single activation
at a time. This work relaxes that again.
This only adds the new property, it is not used nor implemented yet.

We commonly don't use the glib typedefs for char/short/int/long,
but their C types directly.
$ git grep '\<g\(char\|short\|int\|long\|float\|double\)\>' | wc -l
587
$ git grep '\<\(char\|short\|int\|long\|float\|double\)\>' | wc -l
21114
One could argue that using the glib typedefs is preferable in
public API (of our glib based libnm library) or where it clearly
is related to glib, like during
g_object_set (obj, PROPERTY, (gint) value, NULL);
However, that argument does not seem strong, because in practice we don't
follow that argument today, and seldomly use the glib typedefs.
Also, the style guide for this would be hard to formalize, because
"using them where clearly related to a glib" is a very loose suggestion.
Also note that glib typedefs will always just be typedefs of the
underlying C types. There is no danger of glib changing the meaning
of these typedefs (because that would be a major API break of glib).
A simple style guide is instead: don't use these typedefs.
No manual actions, I only ran the bash script:
FILES=($(git ls-files '*.[hc]'))
sed -i \
-e 's/\<g\(char\|short\|int\|long\|float\|double\)\>\( [^ ]\)/\1\2/g' \
-e 's/\<g\(char\|short\|int\|long\|float\|double\)\> /\1 /g' \
-e 's/\<g\(char\|short\|int\|long\|float\|double\)\>/\1/g' \

"UNKNOWN" is not a good name. If you don't set the property
in the connection explicitly, it should be "DEFAULT".
Also, make "DEFAULT" -1. For one, that ensures that the enum's
underlying integer type is signed. Otherwise, it's cumbersome
to test "if (mdns >= DEFAULT)" because in case of unsigned types,
the compiler will warn about the check always being true.
Also, it allows for "NO" to be zero. These are no strong reasons,
but I tend to think this is better.
Also, don't make the property of NMSettingConnection a CONSTRUCT property.
Initialize the default manually in the init function.
Also, order the numeric values so that DEFAULT < NO < RESOLVE < YES with
YES being largest because it enables *the most*.
The number of authentication retires is useful also for passwords aside
802-1x settings. For example, src/devices/wifi/nm-device-wifi.c also has
a retry counter and uses a hard-coded value of 3.
Move the setting, so that it can be used in general. Although it is still
not implemented for other settings.
This is an API and ABI break.
While technically it's already possible to implement a fail-over
mechanism using multiple connections (for example, defining a higher
priority DHCP connection with short DHCP timeout and a lower priority
one with static address), in practice this doesn't work well as we try
to autoactivate each connection 4 times before switching to the next
one.
Introduce a connection.autoconnect-retries property that can be used
to change the number of retries. The special value 0 means infinite
and can be used to try the connection forever. A -1 value means the
global configured default, which is equal to 4 unless overridden.

This new property be used as token to generate stable-ids instead
of the connection's UUID.
Later, this will be used by ipv6.addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy,
ethernet.cloned-mac-address=stable, and wifi.cloned-mac-address=stable
setting. Those generate stable addresses based on the connection's
UUID, but allow to use the stable-id instead.
This allows multiple connections to generate the same addresses
-- on the same machine, because in the above cases a machine
dependant key is also hashed.
Add the 'lldp' property to NMSettingConnection, which specifies
whether the reception and parsing of LLDP frames to discover neighbor
devices should be enabled.
The property is used for controlling whether slaves should be brought up with
a master connection. If 0, activating the master will not activate slaves.
But if set to 1, activating the master will bring up slaves as well.
The property can have the third state (-1), meaning that the value is default.
That is either a value set in the configuration file for the property, or 0.
Add a 'metered' enum property to NMSettingConnection with possible
values: unknown,yes,no. The value indicates the presence of limitations
in the amount of traffic flowing through the connection.
Add nm-core-types.h, typedefing all of the GObject types in
libnm-core; this is needed so that nm-setting.h can reference
NMConnection in addition to nm-connection.h referencing NMSetting.
Removing the cross-includes from the various headers causes lots of
fallout elsewhere. (In particular, nm-utils.h used to include
nm-connection.h, which included every setting header, so any file that
included nm-utils.h automatically got most of the rest of libnm-core
without needing to pay attention to specifics.) Fix this up by
including nm-core-internal.h from those files that are now missing
includes.
Each setting type was defining its own error type, but most of them
had exactly the same three errors ("unknown", "missing property", and
"invalid property"), and none of the other values was of much use
programmatically anyway.
So, this commit merges NMSettingError, NMSettingAdslError, etc, all
into NMConnectionError. (The reason for merging into NMConnectionError
rather than NMSettingError is that we also already have
"NMSettingsError", for errors related to the settings service, so
"NMConnectionError" is a less-confusable name for settings/connection
errors than "NMSettingError".)
Also, make sure that all of the affected error messages are localized,
and (where appropriate) prefix them with the relevant property name.

NM_SETTING_ERROR_PROPERTY_NOT_FOUND -> NM_CONNECTION_ERROR_PROPERTY_NOT_FOUND

The autoconnect priority has only any relevance, if the connection
is autoconnect too.
The priority defaults to zero, with higher numbers meaning preferred.
The valid range is limited to [-999,999].

Some NMSettingConnection:slave-type types require a matching slave #NMSetting.
Add normalization of either the 'slave-type' property or the slave-setting.
Also be more strict in NMSettingConnection:verify() to enforce an
existing slave-setting depending on the slave-type.

Previously, src/nm-ip4-config.h, libnm/nm-ip4-config.h, and
libnm-glib/nm-ip4-config.h all used "NM_IP4_CONFIG_H" as an include
guard, which meant that nm-test-utils.h could not tell which of them
was being included (and so, eg, if you tried to include
nm-ip4-config.h in a libnm test, it would fail to compile because
nm-test-utils.h was referring to symbols in src/nm-ip4-config.h).
Fix this by changing the include guards in the non-API-stable parts of
the tree:
- libnm-glib/nm-ip4-config.h remains NM_IP4_CONFIG_H
- libnm/nm-ip4-config.h now uses __NM_IP4_CONFIG_H__
- src/nm-ip4-config.h now uses __NETWORKMANAGER_IP4_CONFIG_H__
And likewise for all other headers.
The two non-"nm"-prefixed headers, libnm/NetworkManager.h and
src/NetworkManagerUtils.h are now __NETWORKMANAGER_H__ and
__NETWORKMANAGER_UTILS_H__ respectively, which, while not entirely
consistent with the general scheme, do still mostly make sense in
isolation.
Add NetworkManager.h, which includes all of the other NM header, and
require all external users of libnm to use that rather than the
individual headers.
(An exception is made for nm-dbus-interface.h,
nm-vpn-dbus-interface.h, and nm-version.h, which can be included
separately.)
Add reserved slots to those classes that were missing them (or had run
out), and sync up the number of slots across classes:
- 8 slots for "important" classes, abstract base classes, and
classes we expect we might need to add new virtual methods or
signals to later.
- 4 for everything else
Also, rearrange the class elements in a few places into standard order
(signals first, then methods).
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.)
