Set the execution bit on /usr/sbin/{ifup,ifdown} ghost files to match
the mode of same files installed by initscripts.
Otherwise, they will appear as changed according to rpm verify:

Seems rpmbuild does not honor the latest occurance with
--with test --without test
to disable tests. Work around that.
Fixes: ad850c4f03
(cherry picked from commit cc8c207120)
In general, when we build a package, we want no compiler warnings
and all unit tests to pass.
That is in particular true when building a package for the distribution
in koji. When builing in koji, we (rightly) cannot pass rpmbuild options, so
the default whether tests/compiler-warnings are fatal matter very much.
One could argue: let's have the tests/compiler-warnings fatal and fail the build.
During a build in koji for a Fedora release, we want them all pass. And if somebody
does a manual build, the person can patch the spec file (or use rpmbuild
flags).
However, note how commit "f7b5e48cdb contrib/rpm: don't force fatal warnings
with tests" already disabled fatal compiler warnings. Why? It seems
compiler warnings should be even more stable than our unit tests, as long
as you target a particular Fedora release and compiler version. So this
was done to support rebuilding an SRPM for a different Fedora release,
or to be more graceful during early development phase of a Fedora
release, where things are not as stable yet.
The exactly same reasoning applies to treating unit-tests failures as fatal.
For example, a recent iproute2 issue broke unit tests. That meant, with
that iproute2 release in build root, the NetworkManager RPM could not be built.
Very annoying.
Now:
- if "test" is enabled, that means both `make check` and compiler warnings
are treated fatal. If "test" is disabled, `make check` and compiler
warnings are still done, just not fatal.
- "test" is now disabled by default via the spec file. They are not fatal
when building in koji or when rebuilding the package manually.
- tests can be enabled optionally. Note that the "build_clean.sh"
script enables them by default. So, a user using this script would
need to explicitly "--without test".

- always enable more compiler warnings. They are not marked as breaking
the build anyway.
- also, always build with '--with-tests=yes'. Note that our autotools is
actually very nice. Even if you build '--with-tests=no', you still can
run `make check` and the tests are build on demand. The only
difference here is whether the tests are build during `make` or during
`make check`. While little difference, build everything during the
`make` step.
- when running tests, use `make -k check`. Even if they fail, we want to
run the entire test suite.
- also running tests are disabled, still run them. But don't let them
fail the build.

The correct way to create a tarball for release is
./contrib/fedora/rpm/build_clean.sh -r
Just ensure to issue this from a clean shell environment.
(cherry picked from commit 5894da67dc)
The NetworkManager spec file used to determine devel builds as those that
have an odd minor version number. In that case, the built package would
enable more-asserts.
-- By the way, why is '1.13.3-dev' considered a delopment version worthy of more
asserts, but a build from the development phase of the next minor release on
'nm-1-12' branch not?
Note that during the development phase of Fedora (and sometimes even afterwards),
we commonly package development versions from 'master'. For example '1.12.0-0.1',
which is some snapshot with version number '1.11.x-dev' (or '1.12-rc1' in this case),
but before the actual '1.12.0' release.
It's problematic that for part of the devel phase we compile the
package for the distribution with more assertions. This package is
significanly different and rpmdiff and coverity give different results
for them.
For example, the binary size of debug packages is larger, so first
rpmdiff will complain that the binary sized increased (compare to the
previous version) and then later it decreases again.
Likewise, coverity finds significantly different issues on a debug
build. For example, it sees assertions against NULL and takes that
as a hint as to whether the parameter can/shall be NULL. Keeping
coverity warnings low is already high effort to sort out false
positives. We should not invest time in checking debug builds with
coverity, at least not as long as there are more important issues.
But more importantly, the --with-more-asserts configure option governs whether
nm_assert() is enabled. The only point of existance of nm_assert() -- compared to
g_assert(), g_return_*() and assert() -- is that this variant is disabled by default.
It's only used for checks that are really really not supposed to fail and/or
which may be expensive to do. This is useful for developing and CI,
but it's not right to put into the distribution. It really enables
assertions that you don't want in such a scenario. Enabling them even
for distribution builds defeats their purpose. If you care about an
assertion to be usually/always enabled, you should use g_assert() or
g_return_*() instead.
What this changes, that "devel" builds in koji/brew do not have more-asserts
enabled. When manually building the SRPM one still can enable it,
for example via
$ ./contrib/fedora/rpm/build_clean.sh -w debug
Also our CI has an option to build packages with or without more-asserts
(defaulting to more asserts already).

Fedora is removing gcc from the default build-root [1], hence
require it.
Actually, we already have a "BuildRequires: libtool", which has a
dependancy on gcc and we already got it implicitly. Just make it
explicit.

Don't use the integer type before signed/unsigned, but the
other way around. That is,
unsigned long var;
instead of
long unsigned var;
Also, just use "unsigned" instead of "unsigned int".
Tabs are not only wrong after a space, they are always
wrong if they don't appear at the beginning of a line.
That would happen usually, when trying to align multiple
lines like
enum {
VALUE1 = 1;
OTHER_VALUE = 2;
};
When doing that, the alignment will only be correct, if the
reader later uses the same tab-width. Note that in NetworkManager
we recommend the tab-width to be 4 characters, but with our "smart
tab" indentation style, it wouldn't actually matter and the reader
is free to choose any other tab-width -- as long as we don't use
non-leading tabs.
Don't allow non-leading tabs.
We should not use glib typedefs for basic C types char, short, int,
long, float or double. We commonly do not use them, so enforce
consistency.
That is not true for typedefs like guint, which we commonly use
because it's shorter typing than "unsigned int" (or "int unsigned"
or "unsigned"). Whether or not to use guint is left undecided at this
point.

Unless the initscripts package too old to allow alternatives is present,
install nmcli as an alternative implementation of ifup and ifdown.
The triggerin scriptlet allow us to do the right thing regardless of
which initscripts version is installed or even when it's upgraded.
The initscripts patch was included in Fedora 29:
https://github.com/fedora-sysv/initscripts/pull/197
From Fedora 28 on we can build without Python 2. That is good,
because it's eventually going to be removed.
Based on a change in Fedora dist-git by Iryna Shcherbina.
This makes package updates more robust, avoiding in-place replaces of
the plugins.
Previously, if an upgrade transaction was terminated, NetworkManager
library could end up being of a different version than the plugins.
If the user was unfortunate enough to connect using a connection that
required a plugin (say, Wi-Fi), he would be left without a network
connection making it somewhat inconvenient to recover from the botched
upgrade.
This makes the whole situation a little bit less sad.
The VPN plugins are kept where they always have been -- the path is not
qualified with a version number.
When built with iwd support, add an option to use iwd in place of
wpa_supplicant.
The "boolean dependencies" are only supported since RPM 4.13, with older
versions just keep things the way they were before.

On RHEL, we don't have NetworkManager-config-connectivity-fedora package.
Hence, the spec files for RHEL differ from upstream in this regard.
The aim is that contrib/rpm's spec file can be used almost as-is for
RHEL, Fedora and possibly other distros. Hence, build the subpackage
conditionally to minimize the difference.
They were not (notably) touched in more than 3 years.
I doubt anybody is using them.
Also, nowadays we have contrib/rpm to build NetworkManager
packages for Fedora/RPM. We have copr, we have automated CI
in CentOS CI and beaker.
Also, nowadays it should be easy to spawn a a fedora image
in a container or tools like vagrant.
I think there are better alternatives. Drop the scripts.
From libnl3, we only used the helper function to parse/generate netlink
messages and the socket functions to send/receive messages. We don't
need an external dependency to do that, it is simple enough.
Drop the libnl3 dependency, and replace all missing code by directly
copying it from libnl3 sources. At this point, I mostly tried to
import the required bits to make it working with few modifications.
Note that this increases the binary size of NetworkManager by 4736 bytes
for contrib/rpm build on x86_64. In the future, we can simplify the code
further.
A few modifications from libnl3 are:
- netlink errors NLE_* are now in the domain or regular errno.
The distinction of having to bother with two kinds of error
number domains was annoying.
- parts of the callback handling is copied partially and unused parts
are dropped. Especially, the verbose/debug handlers are not used.
In following commits, the callback handling will be significantly
simplified.
- the complex handling of seleting ports was simplified. We now always
let kernel choose the right port automatically.
Disable undefined sanitizer on RHEL since it's not supported. Also,
enable address sanitizer only for executables, as having it enabled in
libraries causes problems when applications built without asan load
them.
Will be used by CI trigger to name packages that are build during testing
of a github pull request with the corresponding pull request ID.
"build_clean.sh" now supports a command line option -s|--snapshot. But the
same paramter can also be set via $NM_BUILD_SNAPSHOT environment
variable. Using the environment variable is useful to support older versions
and new versions of "build_clean.sh", so that the script can just ignore the
snapshot setting if it doesn't understand it yet.
