libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

libnm: deprecate synchronous/blocking API in libnm
Note that D-Bus is fundamentally asynchronous. Doing blocking calls
on top of D-Bus is odd, especially for libnm's NMClient. That is because
NMClient essentially is a client-side cache of the objects from the D-Bus
interface. This cache should be filled exclusively by (asynchronous) D-Bus
events (PropertiesChanged). So, making a blocking D-Bus call means to wait
for a response and return it, while queuing all messages that are received
in the meantime.
Basically there are three ways how a synchronous API on NMClient could behave:
1) the call just calls g_dbus_connection_call_sync(). This means
that libnm sends a D-Bus request via GDBusConnection, and blockingly
waits for the response. All D-Bus messages that get received in the
meantime are queued in the GMainContext that belongs to NMClient.
That means, none of these D-Bus events are processed until we
iterate the GMainContext after the call returns. The effect is,
that NMClient (and all cached objects in there) are unaffected by
the D-Bus request.
Most of the synchronous API calls in libnm are of this kind.
The problem is that the strict ordering of D-Bus events gets
violated.
For some API this is not an immediate problem. Take for example
nm_device_wifi_request_scan(). The call merely blockingly tells
NetworkManager to start scanning, but since NetworkManager's D-Bus
API does not directly expose any state that tells whether we are
currently scanning, this out of order processing of the D-Bus
request is a small issue.
The problem is more obvious for nm_client_networking_set_enabled().
After calling it, NM_CLIENT_NETWORKING_ENABLED is still unaffected
and unchanged, because the PropertiesChanged signal from D-Bus
is not yet processed.
This means, while you make such a blocking call, NMClient's state
does not change. But usually you perform the synchronous call
to change some state. In this form, the blocking call is not useful,
because NMClient only changes the state after iterating the GMainContext,
and not after the blocking call returns.
2) like 1), but after making the blocking g_dbus_connection_call_sync(),
update the NMClient cache artificially. This is what
nm_manager_check_connectivity() does, to "fix" bgo#784629.
This also has the problem of out-of-order events, but it kinda
solves the problem of not changing the state during the blocking
call. But it does so by hacking the state of the cache. I think
this is really wrong because the state should only be updated from
the ordered stream of D-Bus messages (PropertiesChanged signal and
similar). When libnm decides to modify the state, there may be already
D-Bus messages queued that affect this very state.
3) instead of calling g_dbus_connection_call_sync(), use the
asynchronous g_dbus_connection_call(). If we would use a sepaate
GMainContext for all D-Bus related calls, we could ensure that
while we block for the response, we iterate that internal main context.
This might be nice, because all events are processed in order and
after the blocking call returns, the NMClient state is up to date.
The are problems however: current blocking API does not do this,
so it's a significant change in behavior. Also, it might be
unexpected to the user that during the blocking call the entire
content of NMClient's cache might change and all pointers to the
cache might be invalidated. Also, of course NMClient would invoke
signals for all the changes that happen.
Another problem is that this would be more effort to implement
and it involves a small performance overhead for all D-Bus related
calls (because we have to serialize all events in an internal
GMainContext first and then invoke them on the caller's context).
Also, if the users wants this behavior, they could implement it themself
by running libnm in their own GMainContext. Note that libnm might
have bugs to make that really working, but that should be fixed
instead of adding such synchrnous API behavior.
Read also [1], for why blocking calls are wrong.
[1] https://smcv.pseudorandom.co.uk/2008/11/nonblocking/
So, all possible behaviors for synchronous API have severe behavioural
issues. Mark all this API as deprecated. Also, this serves the purpose of
identifying blocking D-Bus calls in libnm.
Note that "deprecated" here does not really mean that the API is going
to be removed. We don't break API. The user may:
- continue to use this API. It's deprecated, awkward and discouraged,
but if it works, by all means use it.
- use asynchronous API. That's the only sensible way to use D-Bus.
If libnm lacks a certain asynchronous counterpart, it should be
added.
- use GDBusConnection directly. There really isn't anything wrong
with D-Bus or GDBusConnection. This deprecated API is just a wrapper
around g_dbus_connection_call_sync(). You may call it directly
without feeling dirty.
---
The only other remainging API is the synchronous GInitable call for
NMClient. That is an entirely separate beast and not particularly
wrong (from an API point of view).
Note that synchronous API in NMSecretAgentOld, NMVpnPluginOld and
NMVpnServicePlugin as not deprecated here. These types are not part
of the D-Bus cache and while they have similar issues, it's less severe
because they have less state.

libnm: add logging NML_DBUS_LOG*() for debugging D-Bus for NMClient
Commonly, a library (like libnm) is not supposed to log anything.
Logging is not a suitable way to notify the calling application
about anything. When something of importance happens, then the
application must be notified via the library's API.
However, logging can be very useful for debugging to see what is going
on. Add a logging macro that by default does nothing, but can be turned
on via an environment variable "LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=debug".
Another point is that libnm relies on the server side NetworkManager
D-Bus interface to be in an expected manner. For example, we require a
D-Bus object "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager" to be present and certain
D-Bus interfaces implemented.
However libnm should treat NetworkManager as external and untrusted component.
That means, we cannot assert against the expectations we have. There are two
reasons for this:
- a bug in NetworkManager, dbus-daemon or else may cause such errors.
This must not trigger an assertion failure in the client
application, at least not unless requested.
- libnm must be forward and backward compatible against a different
NetworkManager server version. That is only possibly by ignoring
anything that is unexpected. Asserting by default might prevent
to implement API changes, both on libnm and server side.
Note that we also don't notify the calling application via dedicated
API. On the one hand, these things *can* happen. On the other hand, what
would the calling appication do about it anyway? libnm by default must
just behave gracefully and pretend all is good.
For testing, development and debugging that is however not useful. We
want the user to opt in to strict API validation. The user will be able
to do that by setting "LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning", which causes API
violations being logged with g_warning(). These are assertions when
running with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings.
This is inspired by GDBus' G_DBUS_DEBUG variable.
Note that LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG environment variables is undocumented, unstable
API. It's used for debugging and testing of the current libnm version at hand.
There is no guaranteed stable behavior how a different libnm version
might behave.

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

N4) Performance. Run NetworkManager from build [2] and setup a large number
of profiles (551 profiles and 515 devices, mostly unrealized). This
setup is already at the edge of what NetworkManager currently can
handle. Of course, that is a different issue. Here we just check how
long plain `nmcli` takes on the system.

libnm: add logging NML_DBUS_LOG*() for debugging D-Bus for NMClient
Commonly, a library (like libnm) is not supposed to log anything.
Logging is not a suitable way to notify the calling application
about anything. When something of importance happens, then the
application must be notified via the library's API.
However, logging can be very useful for debugging to see what is going
on. Add a logging macro that by default does nothing, but can be turned
on via an environment variable "LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=debug".
Another point is that libnm relies on the server side NetworkManager
D-Bus interface to be in an expected manner. For example, we require a
D-Bus object "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager" to be present and certain
D-Bus interfaces implemented.
However libnm should treat NetworkManager as external and untrusted component.
That means, we cannot assert against the expectations we have. There are two
reasons for this:
- a bug in NetworkManager, dbus-daemon or else may cause such errors.
This must not trigger an assertion failure in the client
application, at least not unless requested.
- libnm must be forward and backward compatible against a different
NetworkManager server version. That is only possibly by ignoring
anything that is unexpected. Asserting by default might prevent
to implement API changes, both on libnm and server side.
Note that we also don't notify the calling application via dedicated
API. On the one hand, these things *can* happen. On the other hand, what
would the calling appication do about it anyway? libnm by default must
just behave gracefully and pretend all is good.
For testing, development and debugging that is however not useful. We
want the user to opt in to strict API validation. The user will be able
to do that by setting "LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning", which causes API
violations being logged with g_warning(). These are assertions when
running with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings.
This is inspired by GDBus' G_DBUS_DEBUG variable.
Note that LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG environment variables is undocumented, unstable
API. It's used for debugging and testing of the current libnm version at hand.
There is no guaranteed stable behavior how a different libnm version
might behave.

libnm: add logging NML_DBUS_LOG*() for debugging D-Bus for NMClient
Commonly, a library (like libnm) is not supposed to log anything.
Logging is not a suitable way to notify the calling application
about anything. When something of importance happens, then the
application must be notified via the library's API.
However, logging can be very useful for debugging to see what is going
on. Add a logging macro that by default does nothing, but can be turned
on via an environment variable "LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=debug".
Another point is that libnm relies on the server side NetworkManager
D-Bus interface to be in an expected manner. For example, we require a
D-Bus object "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager" to be present and certain
D-Bus interfaces implemented.
However libnm should treat NetworkManager as external and untrusted component.
That means, we cannot assert against the expectations we have. There are two
reasons for this:
- a bug in NetworkManager, dbus-daemon or else may cause such errors.
This must not trigger an assertion failure in the client
application, at least not unless requested.
- libnm must be forward and backward compatible against a different
NetworkManager server version. That is only possibly by ignoring
anything that is unexpected. Asserting by default might prevent
to implement API changes, both on libnm and server side.
Note that we also don't notify the calling application via dedicated
API. On the one hand, these things *can* happen. On the other hand, what
would the calling appication do about it anyway? libnm by default must
just behave gracefully and pretend all is good.
For testing, development and debugging that is however not useful. We
want the user to opt in to strict API validation. The user will be able
to do that by setting "LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning", which causes API
violations being logged with g_warning(). These are assertions when
running with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings.
This is inspired by GDBus' G_DBUS_DEBUG variable.
Note that LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG environment variables is undocumented, unstable
API. It's used for debugging and testing of the current libnm version at hand.
There is no guaranteed stable behavior how a different libnm version
might behave.

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

N1) File size of libnm.so.0.1.0 in bytes. There currently seems to be a issue
on Fedora 31 generating wrong ELF notes. Usually, libnm is smaller but
in these tests it had large (and bogus) ELF notes. Anyway, the point
is to show the relative sizes, so it doesn't matter).

of profiles (551 profiles and 515 devices, mostly unrealized). This
setup is already at the edge of what NetworkManager currently can
handle. Of course, that is a different issue. Here we just check how
long plain `nmcli` takes on the system.

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

All tests were done on Fedora 31, x86_64, gcc 9.2.1-1.fc31.
The libraries were build with

Note that RPM build already stripped the library.

N1) File size of libnm.so.0.1.0 in bytes. There currently seems to be a issue
on Fedora 31 generating wrong ELF notes. Usually, libnm is smaller but
in these tests it had large (and bogus) ELF notes. Anyway, the point
is to show the relative sizes, so it doesn't matter).

N4) Performance. Run NetworkManager from build [2] and setup a large number
of profiles (551 profiles and 515 devices, mostly unrealized). This
setup is already at the edge of what NetworkManager currently can
handle. Of course, that is a different issue. Here we just check how
long plain `nmcli` takes on the system.
```
do_cleanup() {
for UUID in $(nmcli -g NAME,UUID connection show | sed -n 's/^xx-c-.*:\([^:]\+\)$/\1/p'); do
nmcli connection delete uuid "$UUID"
done
for DEVICE in $(nmcli -g DEVICE device status | grep '^xx-i-'); do
nmcli device delete "$DEVICE"
done
}
do_setup() {

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.
NUMBERS

I compared 3 versions of libnm.
[1] 962297f9085d, current tip of nm-1-20 branch
[2] 4fad8c7c642e, current master, immediate parent of this patch
[3] this patch
All tests were done on Fedora 31, x86_64, gcc 9.2.1-1.fc31.
The libraries were build with
$ ./contrib/fedora/rpm/build_clean.sh -g -w test -W debug
Note that RPM build already stripped the library.

N1) File size of libnm.so.0.1.0 in bytes. There currently seems to be a issue
on Fedora 31 generating wrong ELF notes. Usually, libnm is smaller but
in these tests it had large (and bogus) ELF notes. Anyway, the point
is to show the relative sizes, so it doesn't matter).

N4) Performance. Run NetworkManager from build [2] and setup a large number
of profiles (551 profiles and 515 devices, mostly unrealized). This
setup is already at the edge of what NetworkManager currently can
handle. Of course, that is a different issue. Here we just check how
long plain `nmcli` takes on the system.
```
do_cleanup() {
for UUID in $(nmcli -g NAME,UUID connection show | sed -n 's/^xx-c-.*:\([^:]\+\)$/\1/p'); do
nmcli connection delete uuid "$UUID"
done
for DEVICE in $(nmcli -g DEVICE device status | grep '^xx-i-'); do
nmcli device delete "$DEVICE"
done
}
do_setup() {

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

N1) File size of libnm.so.0.1.0 in bytes. There currently seems to be a issue
on Fedora 31 generating wrong ELF notes. Usually, libnm is smaller but
in these tests it had large (and bogus) ELF notes. Anyway, the point
is to show the relative sizes, so it doesn't matter).

N4) Performance. Run NetworkManager from build [2] and setup a large number
of profiles (551 profiles and 515 devices, mostly unrealized). This
setup is already at the edge of what NetworkManager currently can
handle. Of course, that is a different issue. Here we just check how
long plain `nmcli` takes on the system.

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

All tests were done on Fedora 31, x86_64, gcc 9.2.1-1.fc31.
The libraries were build with
$ ./contrib/fedora/rpm/build_clean.sh -g -w test -W debug
Note that RPM build already stripped the library.

N1) File size of libnm.so.0.1.0 in bytes. There currently seems to be a issue
on Fedora 31 generating wrong ELF notes. Usually, libnm is smaller but
in these tests it had large (and bogus) ELF notes. Anyway, the point
is to show the relative sizes, so it doesn't matter).

N4) Performance. Run NetworkManager from build [2] and setup a large number
of profiles (551 profiles and 515 devices, mostly unrealized). This
setup is already at the edge of what NetworkManager currently can
handle. Of course, that is a different issue. Here we just check how
long plain `nmcli` takes on the system.

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

All tests were done on Fedora 31, x86_64, gcc 9.2.1-1.fc31.
The libraries were build with
$ ./contrib/fedora/rpm/build_clean.sh -g -w test -W debug
Note that RPM build already stripped the library.

N1) File size of libnm.so.0.1.0 in bytes. There currently seems to be a issue
on Fedora 31 generating wrong ELF notes. Usually, libnm is smaller but
in these tests it had large (and bogus) ELF notes. Anyway, the point
is to show the relative sizes, so it doesn't matter).

N4) Performance. Run NetworkManager from build [2] and setup a large number
of profiles (551 profiles and 515 devices, mostly unrealized). This
setup is already at the edge of what NetworkManager currently can
handle. Of course, that is a different issue. Here we just check how
long plain `nmcli` takes on the system.
```

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

N1) File size of libnm.so.0.1.0 in bytes. There currently seems to be a issue
on Fedora 31 generating wrong ELF notes. Usually, libnm is smaller but
in these tests it had large (and bogus) ELF notes. Anyway, the point
is to show the relative sizes, so it doesn't matter).

of profiles (551 profiles and 515 devices, mostly unrealized). This
setup is already at the edge of what NetworkManager currently can

long plain `nmcli` takes on the system.

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

N1) File size of libnm.so.0.1.0 in bytes. There currently seems to be a issue

in these tests it had large (and bogus) ELF notes. Anyway, the point
is to show the relative sizes, so it doesn't matter).

of profiles (551 profiles and 515 devices, mostly unrealized). This
setup is already at the edge of what NetworkManager currently can
handle. Of course, that is a different issue. Here we just check how
long plain `nmcli` takes on the system.

"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

libnm: refactor caching of D-Bus objects in NMClient
No longer use GDBusObjectMangaerClient and gdbus-codegen generated classes
for the NMClient cache. Instead, use GDBusConnection directly and a
custom implementation (NMLDBusObject) for caching D-Bus' ObjectManager
data.
CHANGES
-------
- This is a complete rework. I think the previous implementation was
difficult to understand. There were unfixed bugs and nobody understood
the code well enough to fix them. Maybe somebody out there understood the
code, but I certainly did not. At least nobody provided patches to fix those
issues. I do believe that this implementation is more straightforward and
easier to understand. It removes a lot of layers of code. Whether this claim
of simplicity is true, each reader must decide for himself/herself. Note
that it is still fairly complex.
- There was a lingering performance issue with large number of D-Bus
objects. The patch tries hard that the implementation scales well. Of
course, when we cache N objects that have N-to-M references to other,
we still are fundamentally O(N*M) for runtime and memory consumption (with
M being the number of references between objects). But each part should behave
efficiently and well.
- Play well with GMainContext. libnm code (NMClient) is generally not
thread safe. However, it should work to use multiple instances in
parallel, as long as each access to a NMClient is through the caller's
GMainContext. This follows glib's style and effectively allows to use NMClient
in a multi threaded scenario. This implies to stick to a main context
upon construction and ensure that callbacks are only invoked when
iterating that context. Also, NMClient itself shall never iterate the
caller's context. This also means, libnm must never use g_idle_add() or
g_timeout_add(), as those enqueue sources in the g_main_context_default()
context.
- Get ordering of messages right. All events are consistently enqueued
in a GMainContext and processed strictly in order. For example,
previously "nm-object.c" tried to combine signals and emit them on an
idle handler. That is wrong, signals must be emitted in the right order
and when they happen. Note that when using GInitable's synchronous initialization
to initialize the NMClient instance, NMClient internally still operates fully
asynchronously. In that case NMClient has an internal main context.
- NMClient takes over most of the functionality. When using D-Bus'
ObjectManager interface, one needs to handle basically the entire state
of the D-Bus interface. That cannot be separated well into distinct
parts, and even if you try, you just end up having closely related code
in different source files. Spreading related code does not make it
easier to understand, on the contrary. That means, NMClient is
inherently complex as it contains most of the logic. I think that is
not avoidable, but it's not as bad as it sounds.
- NMClient processes D-Bus messages and state changes in separate steps.
First NMClient unpacks the message (e.g. _dbus_handle_properties_changed()) and
keeps track of the changed data. Then we update the GObject instances
(_dbus_handle_obj_changed_dbus()) without emitting any signals yet. Finally,
we emit all signals and notifications that were collected
(_dbus_handle_changes_commit()). Note that for example during the initial
GetManagedObjects() reply, NMClient receive a large amount of state at once.
But we first apply all the changes to our GObject instances before
emitting any signals. The result is that signals are always emitted in a moment
when the cache is consistent. The unavoidable downside is that when you receive
a property changed signal, possibly many other properties changed
already and more signals are about to be emitted.
- NMDeviceWifi no longer modifies the content of the cache from client side
during poke_wireless_devices_with_rf_status(). The content of the cache
should be determined by D-Bus alone and follow what NetworkManager
service exposes. Local modifications should be avoided.
- This aims to bring no API/ABI change, though it does of course bring
various subtle changes in behavior. Those should be all for the better, but the
goal is not to break any existing clients. This does change internal
(albeit externally visible) API, like dropping NM_OBJECT_DBUS_OBJECT_MANAGER
property and NMObject no longer implementing GInitableIface and GAsyncInitableIface.
- Some uses of gdbus-codegen classes remain in NMVpnPluginOld, NMVpnServicePlugin
and NMSecretAgentOld. These are independent of NMClient/NMObject and
should be reworked separately.
- While we no longer use generated classes from gdbus-codegen, we don't
need more glue code than before. Also before we constructed NMPropertiesInfo and
a had large amount of code to propagate properties from NMDBus* to NMObject.
That got completely reworked, but did not fundamentally change. You still need
about the same effort to create the NMLDBusMetaIface. Not using
generated bindings did not make anything worse (which tells about the
usefulness of generated code, at least in the way it was used).
- NMLDBusMetaIface and other meta data is static and immutable. This
avoids copying them around. Also, macros like NML_DBUS_META_PROPERTY_INIT_U()
have compile time checks to ensure the property types matches. It's pretty hard
to misuse them because it won't compile.
- The meta data now explicitly encodes the expected D-Bus types and
makes sure never to accept wrong data. That would only matter when the
server (accidentally or intentionally) exposes unexpected types on
D-Bus. I don't think that was previously ensured in all cases.
For example, demarshal_generic() only cared about the GObject property
type, it didn't know the expected D-Bus type.
- Previously GDBusObjectManager would sometimes emit warnings (g_log()). Those
probably indicated real bugs. In any case, it prevented us from running CI
with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, because there would be just too many
unrelated crashes. Now we log debug messages that can be enabled with
"LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=trace". Some of these messages can also be turned
into g_warning()/g_critical() by setting LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error.
Together with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings, this turns them into assertions.
Note that such "assertion failures" might also happen because of a server
bug (or change). Thus these are not common assertions that indicate a bug
in libnm and are thus not armed unless explicitly requested. In our CI we
should now always run with LIBNM_CLIENT_DEBUG=warning,error and
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings and to catch bugs. Note that currently
NetworkManager has bugs in this regard, so enabling this will result in
assertion failures. That should be fixed first.
- Note that this changes the order in which we emit "notify:devices" and
"device-added" signals. I think it makes the most sense to emit first
"device-removed", then "notify:devices", and finally "device-added"
signals.
This changes behavior for commit 52ae28f6e5bf ('libnm: queue
added/removed signals and suppress uninitialized notifications'),
but I don't think that users should actually rely on the order. Still,
the new order makes the most sense to me.
- In NetworkManager, profiles can be invisible to the user by setting
"connection.permissions". Such profiles would be hidden by NMClient's
nm_client_get_connections() and their "connection-added"/"connection-removed"
signals.
Note that NMActiveConnection's nm_active_connection_get_connection()
and NMDevice's nm_device_get_available_connections() still exposes such
hidden NMRemoteConnection instances. This behavior was preserved.

N1) File size of libnm.so.0.1.0 in bytes. There currently seems to be a issue
on Fedora 31 generating wrong ELF notes. Usually, libnm is smaller but
in these tests it had large (and bogus) ELF notes. Anyway, the point
is to show the relative sizes, so it doesn't matter).
