The reproducer for another problem tripped an assertion failure:
$ nmcli con del act-conn
Connection 'act-conn' (...) successfully deleted.
$ nmcli con down another-conn
(process:94552): nm-CRITICAL **: 17:07:21.170: ((src/libnm-client-impl/nm-remote-connection.c:593)): assertion '<dropped>' failed
Connection 'another-conn' successfully deactivated (D-Bus active path: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/4)
$
What happens is that the second invocation, when resolving the
connection name into a NMRemoteConnection object, assumes an active
connection has a settings connection.
This assumption is likely to be wrong immediately after deleting a
connection was active, before giving the active connection enough time
to fully deactivate.

This doesn't use NM_UNIQ_T() to create a truly unique name.
Instead, it avoids "_arr" as local variable name, which other
macros also use. By choosing a different name, we can nest such
macro calls, without getting a "-Wshadow" warning.
If you do:
nm_assert_addr_family(NMP_OBJECT_CAST_MPTCP_ADDR(obj)->addr_family));
then there are two nested NM_IN_SET() macro invocations. Once,
NMP_OBJECT_CAST_MPTCP_ADDR() checks that the object type is one of
a few selected (using NM_IN_SET()). Then, that is passed to
nm_assert_addr_family(), which checks NM_IN_SET(addr_family, AF_INET,
AF_INET6).
In general, it's easy to end up in a situation like this.
And it mostly works just fine. The only problem was that NM_IN_SET()
uses an internal, local variable "_x". The compiler will emit a very
verbose failure about the shadowed variable:
./src/libnm-std-aux/nm-std-aux.h:802:14: error: declaration of '_x' shadows a previous local [-Werror=shadow]
802 | type _x = (x); \
NM_UNIQ_T() exists for this purpose. Use it. NM_IN_SET() is
popular enough to warrant a special treatment to avoid this pitfall.
The strength of CList is of course to use it as a stack of queue,
and only append/remove from the front/tail.
However, since this is an intrusive list, it can also be useful to
just use it to track elements, and -- when necessary -- sort them
via c_list_sort().
If we have a sorted list, we might want to insert a new element
honoring the sort order. This function achieves that.
Don't mix <net/ethernet.h> and <linux/if_ether.h>.

NetworkManager primarily manages interfaces in an independent fashion.
That means, whenever possible, we want to have a interface specific
view. In many cases, the underlying kernel API also supports that view.
For example, when configuring IP addresses or unicast routes, we do so
per interfaces and don't need a holistic view.
However, that is not always sufficient. For routing rules and certain
route types (blackhole, unreachable, etc), we need a system wide view
of all the objects in the network namespace.
Originally, NMPRulesManager was added to track routing rules. Then, it
was extended to also track certain route types, and the API was renamed to
NMPRouteManager.
This will also be used to track MPTCP addresses.
So rename again, to give it a general name that is suitable for what it
does. Still, the name is not great (suggestion welcome), but it should
cover the purpose of the API well enough. And it's the best I came
up with.
Rename.
For IPv6, kernel does not accept the ifa_scope parameter and always
determines the scope based on the address itself.
For IPv4, it honors whatever scope the user sets via netlink.
NetworkManager does not allow to directly configure the address
scope, but autodetects it.
Use nm_platform_ip4_address_get_scope() for detecting the scopt.
This also fixes the issue that to detect loopback addresses 127.0.0.0/8
and use scope "host".
Try:
$ nmcli device modify "$IFACE" +ipv4.addresses 127.0.0.5/8
We have our own copy of linux kernel headers, and we must never
directly include the corresponding versions from the system.
Avoid that, by only including the clones via "libnm-std-aux/nm-linux-compat.h"
and by including the compat wrapper header before other system headers.
It's similar to nm_ip_addr_cmp(), but it can be used as an argument
to g_qsort_with_data() to sort a list of NMIPAddr (or in_addr_t or
struct in6_addr).
The address family needs to be given as user-data.
By default, wpa_supplicant sets these parameters according to the
802.11 standard:
dot11RSNAConfigPMKLifetime = 43200 seconds (12 hours)
dot11RSNAConfigPMKReauthThreshold = 70%
With these, the supplicant triggers a new EAP authentication every 8
hours and 24 minutes. If the network uses one-time secrets, the
reauthentication fails and the supplicant disconnects. It doesn't seem
desirable that the client starts a reauthentication so early; bump the
lifetime to a week.
Currently, due to a bug, the new value is ignored by wpa_supplicant
when set via D-Bus. This patch needs the fix at [1], not yet merged.

The current behavior of "nmcli networking off" is that it starts
disconnecting the devices, but doesn't wait for them to actually
come down.
That is not too helpful: the user never knows when the network is
actually disconnected.
Some users, notably the NetworkManager-CI test suite, seem to expect the
devices are all disconnected after the command finishes. Even worse,
it immediately proceeds activating the connections:
@ovs_cloned_mac_set_on_iface
...
* Execute "nmcli networking off && nmcli networking on"
This results in pure utter chaos. In particular, the slave connections
sometimes refuse to activate after "nmcli networking on", because the
master connections are still getting disconnected in response to
preceding "nmcli networking off".
Let's make Enable(FALSE) and Sleep(TRUE) block until none of the devices
are expected to go down.
Note that this makes those call also return when Enable(TRUE) and
Sleep(FALSE) is issued in meanwhile. Therefore a return from
Enable(FALSE) doesn't necessarily imply the networking is disabled.
This is a feature, not a bug -- the actual manager state is available in
the "state" property.

"-Difcfg_rh=false" did not work, we would always fallback to
autodetection. That is wrong, an explicit "false" should be honored.
It's also not what autotools does. Fix this.
While at it, drop "distro" variable. It's not a clear concept
that can be reused and it's unused otherwise.
Also, no longer let the autodetection be based on cross compilation.
When cross-compiling, it seems not entirely unreasonable that you cross
compile to a comparable distro, so let the autodetection be based on
what we detect on the host. In any case, a user can and is encouraged
to explicitly enable/disable the plugins via "-Difcfg_rh=" or
"-Difupdown=".

If we have a non-clean working directory after do_clean(), that
is a bug and something we need to investigate. Print information
to make that easier to debug.
Usually we want no difference between the upstream project that we fork
via git-subtree, and our copy. However, for the subprojects, we need to
patch them. Do it.
If you know a better way, that allows to overwriting the subprojects
please send a patch.
n-dhcp4 only supports calling ACCEPT during the GRANTED state.
Not during a EXTENDED event. So usually, we would not want
to call accept in that case.
And we didn't. During EXTENDED event, we would usually skip ACD (because
it's either not enabled or we already passed ACD for the current address).
In that case, in _nm_dhcp_client_notify() we hit the line
if (client_event_type == NM_DHCP_CLIENT_EVENT_TYPE_BOUND && priv->l3cd_curr
&& nm_l3_config_data_get_num_addresses(priv->l3cd_curr, priv->config.addr_family) > 0)
priv->l3cfg_notify.wait_dhcp_commit = TRUE;
else
priv->l3cfg_notify.wait_dhcp_commit = FALSE;
and would not set `wait_dhpc_commit`. That means, we never called _dhcp_client_accept().
For nettools, that doesn't really matter because calling ACCEPT during EXTENDED
is invalid anyway. However, for dhclient that is fatal because we wouldn't reply the
D-Bus request from nm-dhcp-helper. The helper times out after 60 seconds and dhclient
would misbehave.
We need to fix that by also calling _dhcp_client_accept() in the case when we don't
need to wait (the EXTENDED case).
However, previously _dhcp_client_accept() was rather peculiar and didn't like to be
called in an unexpected state. Relax that. Now, when calling accept in an unexpected
state, just do nothing and signal success. That frees the caller from the complexity
to understand when they must/must not call accept.
