Since commit 7d1709d7f6 ("device: check may_fail when progressing to
IP_CHECK") NM correctly checks the may-fail properties to decide
whether a connection must fail after the completion of IP
configuration. But for ipv4.method=disabled and ipv6.method=ignore the
IP configuration is always considered failed and thus setting
may-fail=no results in a connection that can never succeed.
To prevent such wrong configuration, force may-fail to TRUE for those
methods during connection normalization.

In some situations, we want strict checking of errors, for example when
NetworkManager receives a new connection from a client, the connection
must make sense as a whole (and since NetworkManager service is backward
compatible to the clients and not the other way around, there is no
excuse for sending invalid data to the server).
In other situations, we want a best-effort behavior. Like when
NetworkManager sends a connection to its clients, those clients
want to extract as many properties as they understand, but in order
to be forward compatible against newer server versions, invalid
or unknown properties must be accepted.
Previously, a mixture of both was done. Some issues caused a failure
to create a new NMSetting, other invalid parts were just silently
ignored or triggered a g_warning() in glib.
Now allow for both. When doing strict-validation, be more strict and
reject all unknown properties and catch when the user sets an invalid
argument. On the other hand, allow for a best-effort mode that
effectively cannot fail and will return a new NMSetting instance.
For now, add NMSettingParseFlags so that the caller can choose the
old behavior, strict parsing, or best effort.
This patch doesn't have any externally visible change except that
no more g_warnings will be emitted.
- All internal source files (except "examples", which are not internal)
should include "config.h" first. As also all internal source
files should include "nm-default.h", let "config.h" be included
by "nm-default.h" and include "nm-default.h" as first in every
source file.
We already wanted to include "nm-default.h" before other headers
because it might contains some fixes (like "nm-glib.h" compatibility)
that is required first.
- After including "nm-default.h", we optinally allow for including the
corresponding header file for the source file at hand. The idea
is to ensure that each header file is self contained.
- Don't include "config.h" or "nm-default.h" in any header file
(except "nm-sd-adapt.h"). Public headers anyway must not include
these headers, and internal headers are never included after
"nm-default.h", as of the first previous point.
- Include all internal headers with quotes instead of angle brackets.
In practice it doesn't matter, because in our public headers we must
include other headers with angle brackets. As we use our public
headers also to compile our interal source files, effectively the
result must be the same. Still do it for consistency.
- Except for <config.h> itself. Include it with angle brackets as suggested by
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#Configuration-Headers
- "gsystem-local-alloc.h" and <gio/gio.h> are already included via
"nm-default.h". No need to include them separately.
- include "nm-macros-internal.h" via "nm-default.h" and drop all
explict includes.
- in the modified files, ensure that we always include "config.h"
and "nm-default.h" first. As second, include the header file
for the current source file (if applicable). Then follow external
includes and finally internal nm includes.
- include nm headers inside source code files with quotes
- internal header files don't need to include default headers.
They can savely assume that "nm-default.h" is already included
and with it glib, nm-glib.h, nm-macros-internal.h, etc.
Take a missing value in keyfile/ifcfg-rh as EUI-64 to keep the compatibility
with the old conneciton. Nevertheless, the new connections should default to
the RFC7217 addresses.
The localization headers are now included via "nm-default.h".
Also fixes several places, where we wrongly included <glib/gi18n-lib.h>
instead of <glib/gi18n.h>. For example under "clients/" directory.
Since introduction for support of ip6-privacy (use_tempaddr,
RFC4941) with commit d376270bfe,
the sysctl value from /etc was always read first.
This is problematic, because an explicit setting in the
connection should not be ignored over a global configuration.
Drop that old behavior. It was also problematic, because we did
not read any files under /etc/sysctl.d (except for sysctl.conf).
Also, we did not honor per-interface configurations.
Now we also use as last fallback the value from
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/default/use_tempaddr
That has the advantage of falling back to the system default value
so that NM doesn't need to have it's own default policy
(Related: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1187525).
This is a change in behavior.
Support default value for setting 'ipv6.ip6-privacy' in
NetworkManager.conf.
If the global value is unset, preserve old behavior of looking into
/etc/sycctl.conf first. That behavior was introduced with commit
d376270bfe, since we support ip6-privacy
setting.
If the global value is set to "unknown", add a new fallback
that instead reads the runtime value from
"/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/default/use_tempaddr"
This seems more sensible behavior because we fallback to sysctl,
but instead of looking at static files in /etc, read /proc.
But to preserve the old behavior, we only do that when a global
value is configured at all.

Add "---dbus---" sections to the NMSetting property docs, in the same
style as the plugin docs, parse them out into a file
"nm-setting-docs-overrides.xml", and use them to override the GObject
property docs in nm-setting-docs.xml.
This lets us put more D-Bus-specific information in the setting docs,
without cluttering up the property docs, and it also lets us document
dbus-only properties.
Move the settings/plugins doc generation from libnm-util to
libnm-core, since libnm-util isn't being updated for all new
properties.
With this commit, the keyfile and ifcfg-rh documentation is basically
unchanged, except that deprecated properties are now gone, and new
properties have been added, and the sections are in a different order.
(generate-plugin-docs.pl just outputs the settings in Makefile order,
and they were unsorted in libnm-util, but are sorted in libnm-core).
The settings documentation used for nm-settings.5, the D-Bus API docs,
and the nmcli help is changed a bit more at this point, and mostly for
the worse, since the libnm-core setting properties don't match up with
the D-Bus API as well as the libnm-util ones do. To be fixed...
(I also removed the "plugins docs" line in each plugin docs comment
block while moving them, since those blocks will be used for more than
just plugins soon, and it's sort of obvious anyway.)
Although libnm filters out properties received from the daemon that it
doesn't understand, there may be other clients that do not. In
particular, a client might call GetSettings() on a connection, update
the ipv4.addresses property in the returned dictionary, and then pass
the dictionary to Update(). In that case, the updated dictionary would
contain ipv4.address-data, but it would not reflect the changes the
client intended to make.
Fix this by changing the daemon side to prefer the legacy properties
to the new ones if both are set, and changing the client side to not
send the legacy properties (since we don't support new clients talking
to old servers anyway).
Libraries need to include <gi18n-lib.h>, not <gi18n.h>, so that _()
will get defined to "dgettext (GETTEXT_DOMAIN, string)" rather than
"gettext (string)" (which will use the program's default domain, which
works fine for programs in the NetworkManager tree, but not for
external users). Likewise, we need to call bindtextdomain() so that
gettext can find the translations if the library is installed in a
different prefix from the program using it (and
bind_textdomain_codeset(), so it will know the translations are in
UTF-8 even if the locale isn't).
(The fact that no one noticed this was broken before is because the
libraries didn't really start returning useful translated strings much
until 0.9.10, and none of the out-of-tree clients have been updated to
actually show those strings to users yet.)
config.h should be included from every .c file, and it should be
included before any other include. Fix that.
(As a side effect of how I did this, this also changes us to
consistently use "config.h" rather than <config.h>. To the extent that
it matters [which is not much], quotes are more correct anyway, since
we're talking about a file in our own build tree, not a system
include.)
Add AddressData and RouteData properties to NMSettingIPConfig and
NMIP[46]Config. These are like the existing "addresses" and "routes"
properties, but using strings and containing additional attributes,
like NMIPAddress and NMIPRoute.
This only affects the D-Bus representations; there are no API changes
to NMSettingIP{,4,6}Config or NMIP{4,6}Config as a result of this; the
additional information is just added to the existing 'addresses' and
'routes' properties.
NMSettingIP4Config and NMSettingIP6Config now always generate both
old-style data ('addresses', 'address-labels', 'routes') and new-style
data ('address-data', 'gateway', 'route-data') when serializing to
D-Bus, for backward compatibility. When deserializing, they will fill
in the 'addresses' and 'routes' properties from the new-style data if
it is present (ignoring the old-style data), or from the old-style
data if the new-style isn't present.
The daemon-side NMIP4Config and NMIP6Config always emit changes for
both 'Addresses'/'Routes' and 'AddressData'/'RouteData'. The
libnm-side classes initially listen for changes on both properties,
but start ignoring the 'Addresses' and 'Routes' properties once they
know the daemon is also providing 'AddressData' and 'RouteData'.
The gateway is a global property of the IPv4/IPv6 configuration, not
an attribute of any particular address. So represent it as such in the
API; remove the gateway from NMIPAddress, and add it to
NMSettingIPConfig.
Behind the scenes, the gateway is still serialized along with the
first address in NMSettingIPConfig:addresses, and is deserialized from
that if the settings dictionary doesn't contain a 'gateway' key.
Adjust nmcli's interactive mode to prompt for IP addresses and gateway
separately. (Patch partly from Jirka Klimeš.)
Split a base NMSettingIPConfig class out of NMSettingIP4Config and
NMSettingIP6Config, and update things accordingly.
Further simplifications of now-redundant IPv4-vs-IPv6 code are
possible, and should happen in the future.
Merge NMIP4Address and NMIP6Address into NMIPAddress, and NMIP4Route
and NMIP6Route into NMIPRoute. The new types represent IP addresses as
strings, rather than in binary, and so are address-family agnostic.
nm_setting_verify() took a GSList of other NMSettings, but really it
would just be simpler all around to pass the NMConnection instead...
This means that several formerly NMSetting-branded functions that
operated on lists-of-settings now get replaced with
NMConnection-branded functions instead.
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.

Make enum- and flags-valued properties use GParamSpecEnum and
GParamSpecFlags, for better introspectability/bindability.
This requires no changes outside libnm-core/libnm since the expected
data size is still the same with g_object_get()/g_object_set(), and
GLib will internally convert between int/uint and enum/flags GValues
when using g_object_get_property()/g_object_set_property().
In preparation for porting to GDBus, make nm_connection_to_dbus(),
etc, represent connections as GVariants of type 'a{sa{sv}}' rather
than as GHashTables-of-GHashTables-of-GValues.
This means we're constantly converting back and forth internally, but
this is just a stepping stone on the way to the full GDBus port, and
all of that code will go away again later.
Make the :addresses and :routes properties be GPtrArrays of
NMIP4Address, etc, rather than just reflecting the D-Bus data.
Make the :dns properties be arrays of strings rather than arrays of
binary IP addresses (and update the corresponding APIs as well).
Change all DBUS_TYPE_G_LIST_OF_STRING and DBUS_TYPE_G_ARRAY_OF_STRING
properties to G_TYPE_STRV, and update everything accordingly.
(This doesn't actually require using
_nm_setting_class_transform_property(); dbus-glib is happy to transform
between 'as' and G_TYPE_STRV.)
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).
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.)
