Beniamino Galvani e12e5a2ad4 libnm,nmcli: add ipvx.dhcp-dscp property Currently the internal DHCP client sets traffic class "CS6" in the DS field of the IP header for outgoing packets. dhclient sets the field according to the definition of TOS (RFC 1349), which was was deprecated in 1998 by RFC 2474 in favor of DSCP. Introduce a new property IPvX.dhcp-dscp (currently valid only for IPv4) to specify a custom DSCP value for DHCP backends that support it (currently, only the internal one). Define the default value to CS0, because: - section 4.9 of RFC 4594 specifies that DHCP should use the standard (CS0 = 0) service class; - section 3.2 says that class CS6 is for "transmitting packets between network devices (routers) that require control (routing) information to be exchanged between nodes", listing "OSPF, BGP, ISIS, RIP" as examples of such traffic. Furthermore, it says that: User traffic is not allowed to use this service class. By user traffic, we mean packet flows that originate from user-controlled end points that are connected to the network. - we got reports of some Cisco switches dropping DHCP packets because of the CS6 marking.

libnm-core-aux-intern

libnm-core-aux-intern is a static library that:

uses parts of libnm-core-impl, that are public API of libnm (i.e. libnm-core-public).
that is statically linked into libnm-core-impl (and thus libnm and NetworkManager core.
that can also be statically linked into other users of libnm.

Basically, it is a static library with utility functions that extends libnm-core-impl (the part that is public API of libnm), but it is also used by libnm-core-impl itself.

That means:

you can use it everywhere where you either statically link with libnm-core-impl, or dynamically link with libnm.
you can even use it inside of libnm-core-impl itself. This is the difference between libnm-core-aux-intern and libnm-core-aux-extern.

Note that libnm-core-aux-intern only uses public API of libnm.

This directory should not be added to the include search path. Instead, users should fully qualify the include like #include "libnm-core-aux-intern/nm-auth-subject.h".
