We cannot simply compare the single values of option hashes to match
connections because some keys are equivalent to others and also
because keys having a default value should be ignored.
Add the compare_property method to implement custom comparison logic.
When a value of a TYPE_BOTH option is read back from kernel it
contains both string and numeric values ("balance-rr 0"), so we must
chop off the number before adding the option to the setting. Also
change the default values of options to the string form so that the
option matching logic works.
No actual change, let's just not directly call nm_simple_connection_new_from_dbus().
Instead, add a wrapper to define in once place the flags we use for loading the
connection.
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.
_nm_utils_ascii_str_to_int64() was declared in libnm-core's internal
header "nm-core-internal.h" and thus available for libnm-core, libnm,
NetworkManager and related.
It also means, the function was not available in libnm-util, libnm-glib,
clients or dispatcher. So, we either reimplemented it (nmc_string_to_int_base)
or struggle with the awkward strtol* API.
For some properties as *subject-match and *domain-suffix-match an
empty string means that we don't want to do any filtering and should
be stored as NULL.
The new domain-suffix-match and phase2-domain-suffix-match properties
can be used to match against a given server domain suffix in the
dNSName elements or in the SubjectName CN of the server certificate.
Also, add a comment to the old subject-match properties documentation
to suggest that they are deprecated and should not be used anymore.
GError codes are only unique per domain, so logging the code without
also indicating the domain is not helpful. And anyway, if the error
messages are not distinctive enough to tell the whole story then we
should fix the error messages.

On older NM versions the default value for vlan.flags was 0, but then
the actual value set on interfaces was REORDER_HDR. In order to
maintain backwards compatibility in behavior, remove the special
handling of vlan.flags so that a missing key is treated as the default
value REORDER_HDR.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=762626
On NM 1.0 connections were created by default without the REORDER_HDR
flag, but then due to a bug in platform code (fixed in [1]), the
kernel interface always had the flag set.
Now that the setting is honored, users upgrading to the new version of
NM will see a change from the previous behavior, since interfaces will
not have REORDER_HDR and this will certainly break functionality.
The only solution here seems to be to ignore the REORDER_HDR variable
in ifcfg files (since it never had any effect) and introduce a new
NO_REORDER_HDR option for the VLAN_FLAGS variable which allows to turn
the flag off. The consequence is that the flag will be set for all old
connections.
This change introduces an incompatibility with initscripts, however is
necessary to avoid breaking user functionality upon upgrade.
Connections created through NetworkManager will still be parsed
correctly by initscripts (since we always write the REORDER_HDR
variable).

- 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
Change the dhcp-timeout property in NMSettingIPConfig to int type for
consistency with the dad-timeout property. For dad-timeout -1 means
"use default value", while for dhcp-timeout probably we will never use
negative values, but it seems more correct to use the same type for
the two properties.
This breaks API and ABI for the functions related to Reapply,
which got introduced in the current 1.1 development phase.
The version-id is here to allow users to error out if the connection
on the device was changed by a concurrent action.

Some drivers (or things outside NM like 'powertop') may turn powersave
on, so don't touch it unless explicitly configured by user.
To achieve this, add new 'default' and 'ignore' options; the former
can be used to fall back to a globally configured setting, while the
latter tells NM not to touch the current setting.
When 'default' is specified, a missing global default configuration is
equivalent to 'ignore'.
It is possible to enable Wi-Fi power saving for all connections by
dropping a file in /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d with the following
content:
[connection]
wifi.powersave=3

It is ugly that nmtst_assert_connection_verifies_after_normalization() would
normalize the argument and modify it. An assertion should not have side-effects.
- "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.
They are actually u32 in the kernel. Plus if we use G_MAXINT32 it
causes gtkdoc to write out "Allowed values: <= G_MAXLONG" on i386
and "Allowed values: <= G_MAXINT" on x86_64, breaking multilib.

Point in case:
# ip link add link dummy0 name dummy0.vlan type vlan id 4095
RTNETLINK answers: Numerical result out of range
This potentially causes existing (invalid) connections to disappear
as they now fail verification.
Instead of adjusting the range of the GObject property
NM_SETTING_VLAN_ID, reject it during vlan. This is a bit more
forgiving to an older client that isn't aware of this new restriction,
so he can first set the value without raising a critical warning.
