Make all mac-address properties (including NMSettingBluetooth:bdaddr,
NMSettingOlpcMesh:dhcp-anycast-addr, and NMSettingWireless:bssid) be
strings, using _nm_setting_class_transform_property() to handle
translating to/from binary form when dealing with D-Bus.
Update everything accordingly for the change, and also add a test for
transformed setting properties to test-general.
NMParamSpecSpecialized existed basically to provide a version of
GParamSpecBoxed that could compare dbus-glib-valued properties
correctly.
However, g_param_values_cmp() was only used by NM directly in one
place (NMSetting's compare_property()), and we don't actually need to
indirect through GParamSpec there; we could just call
NMParamSpecSpecialized's value-comparison function directly.
So, change all NMParamSpecSpecialized properties to GParamSpecBoxed,
rename the _gvalues_compare() function it used to
"nm_property_compare()", and use that from NMSetting.
(g_param_values_cmp() also gets used internally by
g_param_value_defaults(), but all NMParamSpecSpecialized properties
have a default value of NULL, so GParamSpecBoxed's pointer-equality
check will do the job just fine there.)
Simplify the use of _nm_register_setting() by having it splice
together various symbol names itself rather than requiring them to be
specified explicitly, and extend it to also ensure that the type's
corresponding error type is registered (allowing one to find it via
g_type_from_name() if necessary).
Include <linux/if_ether.h> and <linux/if_infiniband.h> from
nm-utils.h, to get ETH_ALEN and INFINIBAND_ALEN, and remove those
includes (as well as <net/ethernet.h> and <netinet/ether.h>, and
various headers that had been included to get the ARPHRD_* constants)
from other files where they're not needed now.
Lots of old code used struct ether_addr to store hardware addresses,
and ether_aton() to parse them, but more recent code generally uses
guint8 arrays, and the nm_utils_hwaddr_* methods, to be able to share
code between ETH_ALEN and INFINIBAND_ALEN cases. So update the old
code to match the new. (In many places, this ends up getting rid of
casts between struct ether_addr and guint8* anyway.)
(Also, in some places, variables were switched from struct ether_addr
to guint8[] a while back, but some code still used "&" when referring
to them even though that's unnecessary now. Clean that up.)
Drop the arptype-based nm_utils_hwaddr funcs, and rename the
length-based ones to no longer have _len in their names. This also
switches nm_utils_hwaddr_atoba() to using a length rather than an
arptype, and adds a length argument to nm_utils_hwaddr_valid() (making
nm_utils_hwaddr_valid() now a replacement for nm_utils_hwaddr_aton()
in some places, where we were only using aton() to do validity
checking).
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.)
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.)
[This commit just copies the source code from libnm-util/ to
libnm-core/, and libnm-glib/ to libnm/:
