The purpose of this is to allow overriding to_dbus_fcn and from_dbus_fcn when
necessary (such as for special behavior regarding a deprecated/aliased properties).
Introduce a new option to NMSettingIpConfig. The new option is ternary
type being the default value set to disabled. When enabled,
NetworkManager will instruct the DHCP client to send RELEASE message
when IP addresses are being removed.
The argument might imply that when set to FALSE, the dhcp client won't
send a RELEASE message. This won't be true with the new
dhcp-send-release option that is going to be introduced.
Instead, change the name to "force_release", when set to TRUE it means
we are sending a RELEASE message even if not indicated by the user. When
set to FALSE, it will be up to the user.
The new option at NMSettingConnection allow the user to specify if the
connection needs to be down when powering off the system. This is useful
for IP address removal prior powering off. In order to accomplish that,
we listen on "Shutdown" systemd DBus signal.
The option is set to FALSE by default, it can be specified globally on
configuration file or per profile.
The code that is adding the devices to the sleeping list and taking them
down should be moved to a separated function. This way we can reuse it
and we avoid duplicating code.
In order to provide the NMSleepMonitor a more generic usage, let's
rename the whole module to NMPowerMonitor. Nothing is exposed to the API
so it is a trivial renaming.
"check" argument will change its default value to "true" in the future
versions. Hence, set it explicitly to "false", to preserve current
semantics.
Fixes the following warning:
WARNING: You should add the boolean check kwarg to the run_command call.
It currently defaults to false,
but it will default to true in future releases of meson.

Use warning_level instead of defining -Wall and -Wextra explicitly.
Fixes the following warning:
meson.build:235: WARNING: Consider using the built-in warning_level
option instead of using "-Wall".
Disable the vlan_xgress unit test which was failing.
This test is currently being work and is going to be fixed soon.

If a generic device is present and the name matches, it is compatible
with any link type.
For example, if a generic connection has a device-handler that creates
a dummy interface, the link is compatible with the NMDeviceGeneric.
(cherry picked from commit 5978fb2b27)
When a generic connection has a custom device-handler, it always
generates a NMDeviceGeneric, even when the link that gets created is
of a type natively supported by NM. On service restart, we need to
keep track that the device is generic or otherwise a different device
type will be instantiated.
(cherry picked from commit f2613be150)
If the device-handler of the generic connection is set, the connection
is virtual and the device is created by invoking the device-handler
via NetworkManager-dispatcher service.
With this change, a generic device now represents two different device
classes:
- existing interfaces that are not natively supported or recognized
by NetworkManager. Those devices have the `has_device_handler`
property set to FALSE;
- interfaces that are created by NM by invoking the device-handler;
they have `has_device_handler` set to TRUE.
(cherry picked from commit df6c35ec75)
Device handlers need a way to pass data back to NetworkManager, such
as the ifindex and an error message. Allow them to return a dictionary
on standard output, where each line contains a "$key=$value" pair.
In the daemon, the dictionary is returned via the callback function.
(cherry picked from commit d72f26b875)
"device-add" and "device-delete" actions are called for
device-handlers of generic devices. They differ from other actions in
the following aspects:
- only one script is invoked, the one with name specified by the
device-handler property;
- the script is searched in the "device" subdirectory;
- since there is only one script executed, the result and error
string from that script are returned by NM in the callback function.
(cherry picked from commit ee5845063d)
Call the Action2() method first, and fall back to the old Action() if
the new one is not available. This allows full interoperability
between different versions of the dispatcher service and NM.
(cherry picked from commit 8fd0d39444)
Currently, the dispatcher service implements an Action() method to
dispatch events. In the next commits, we'll need to add new
parameters, which is not possible with the current signature.
Introduce a new Action2() method, similar to the existing one but with
the following changes:
- it accepts an additional "options" input parameter of type a{sv};
- for each script executed, it also returns a dictionary of type
a{sv}.
The new parameters will allow to easily extend functionality in the
future without having to implement an Action3().
(cherry picked from commit abf0f03d25)
Introduce request_dbus_method_return() and call it whenever we need to
return a result. Don't collect the list of scripts in case the
parameters can't be parsed.
(cherry picked from commit 703efdfbbf)
Move common code from nm_dispatcher_call_device() and
nm_dispatcher_call_device_sync() to a new function; it will also be
used in the next commits by a new variant of the function.
(cherry picked from commit fa6ce51a0b)
Add a new "generic.device-handler" property that specifies the name of
a dispatcher script to be invoked to add and delete the interface for
this connection.
(cherry picked from commit e686ab35b3)
Properties in the "user" setting are a convenient way to associate any
kind of user-provided metadata to connections.
However, nmcli doesn't support the user setting at the moment and
adding this feature requires a significant effort. Without nmcli
support, dispatcher scripts can only access user properties by either
parsing connection files or by using D-Bus (with or without libnm and
GObject introspection). Since both these solutions are not very
convenient, provide an alternative way: pass the properties as
environment variables.
