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.

libnm: add and use _nml_coerce_property_*() Our NMObject implementations should behave in a similar manner. For example, string properties should be coerced the a consistent manner. Add functions _nml_coerce_property_*() for that. Of course, they are trivial. Their value is not that they encapsulate some complex implementation, but that they convey a general concept of how we want to handle certain properties in NMClient's object cache.

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.

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.

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.

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. NUMBERS ------- I compared 3 versions of libnm.

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.

/*****************************************************************************/
libnm: allow to enable/disable fetching of permissions in NMClient Currently, NMClient by default always fetches the permissions ("GetPermissions()") and refreshes them on "CheckPermissions" signal. Fetching permissions is relatively expensive, while they are not used most of the time. Allow the user to opt out of this. For that, have a NMClientInstanceFlags to enable/disable automatic fetching. Also add a "permissions-state" property that allows the user to understand whether the cached permissions are up to date or not. This is a bit an awkward API for handling this. E.g. you cannot explicitly request permissions, you can just enable/disable fetching permissions. And then you can watch the permission-state to know whether you are ready. It's done this way because it fits the previous model and extends the API with a (relative) small amount of new functions and properties.

#define NM_CLIENT_INSTANCE_FLAGS_ALL ((NMClientInstanceFlags) 0x1)
libnm: add NMClient:instance-flags property Add a flags property to control behavior of NMClient. Possible future use cases: - currently it would always automatically fetch permissions. Often that is not used and the user could opt out of it. - currently, using sync init creates an internal GMainContext. This has an overhead and may be undesirable. We could implement another "sync" initialization that would merely iterate the callers mainloop until the initialization completes. A flag would allow to opt in. - currently, NMClient always fetches all connection settings automatically. Via a flag the user could opt out of that. Instead NMClient could provide an API so the user can request settings as they are needed.

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.

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.

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.

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.

gboolean nml_dbus_property_o_is_ready(const NMLDBusPropertyO *pr_o);
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.

gboolean nml_dbus_property_o_is_ready_fully(const NMLDBusPropertyO *pr_o);
libnm: hide NMActiveConnection until NMRemoteConnection is ready Generally, libnm's NMClient cache only wants to expose NMObjects that are fully initalized. Most objects don't require anything special, except NMRemoteConnection which waits for the GetSettings() call to complete. NMObjects reference each other. For example, NMActiveConnection references NMDevice and NMRemoteConnection. There is a desire that an object is only ready, if the objects that it references are ready too. In practice that is not done, because usually every objects references other objects, that means all objects would be declared as non-ready as long as any of them is still initializing. That does not seem desirable. Instead, most objects (except NMRemoteConnection and now NMActiveConnection) are considered ready and visible, once their first notification completes. In case the objects reference any object that is not yet ready, the references is NULL (but the source object is visible already). This is also done this way, to cope with cycles where objects reference each other. In practice, such cycles should not be exposed by NetworkManager. However, libnm should be robust against that. This has the undesired effect that when you call AddAndActivate(), then the NMActiveConnection might already be visible while its NMRemoteConnection isn't. That means, ac.get_connection() will initially return NULL, until the remote connection becomes ready. Also add a special handling that NMActiveConnection waits for their NMRemoteConnection to be ready, before being ready itself.

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.

void nml_dbus_property_o_clear_many(NMLDBusPropertyO *pr_o, guint len, NMClient *self);
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.

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.

void nml_dbus_property_o_notify_changed_many(NMLDBusPropertyO *ptr, guint len, NMClient *self);
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

void nml_dbus_property_ao_clear(NMLDBusPropertyAO *pr_ao, NMClient *client);
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.

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() { do_cleanup for i in {1..30}; do nmcli connection add type bond autoconnect no con-name xx-c-bond-$i ifname xx-i-bond-$i ipv4.method disabled ipv6.method ignore for j in $(seq $i 30); do nmcli connection add type vlan autoconnect no con-name xx-c-vlan-$i-$j vlan.id $j ifname xx-i-vlan-$i-$j vlan.parent xx-i-bond-$i ipv4.method disabled ipv6.method ignore done done systemctl restart NetworkManager.service sleep 5 } do_test() { perf stat -r 50 -B nmcli 1>/dev/null } do_test ``` [1] Performance counter stats for 'nmcli' (50 runs): 456.33 msec task-clock:u # 1.093 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.44% ) 0 context-switches:u # 0.000 K/sec 0 cpu-migrations:u # 0.000 K/sec 5,900 page-faults:u # 0.013 M/sec ( +- 0.02% ) 1,408,675,453 cycles:u # 3.087 GHz ( +- 0.48% ) 1,594,741,060 instructions:u # 1.13 insn per cycle ( +- 0.02% ) 368,744,018 branches:u # 808.061 M/sec ( +- 0.02% ) 4,566,058 branch-misses:u # 1.24% of all branches ( +- 0.76% ) 0.41761 +- 0.00282 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.68% ) [2] Performance counter stats for 'nmcli' (50 runs): 477.99 msec task-clock:u # 1.088 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.36% ) 0 context-switches:u # 0.000 K/sec 0 cpu-migrations:u # 0.000 K/sec 5,948 page-faults:u # 0.012 M/sec ( +- 0.03% ) 1,471,133,482 cycles:u # 3.078 GHz ( +- 0.36% ) 1,655,275,369 instructions:u # 1.13 insn per cycle ( +- 0.02% ) 382,595,152 branches:u # 800.433 M/sec ( +- 0.02% ) 4,746,070 branch-misses:u # 1.24% of all branches ( +- 0.49% ) 0.43923 +- 0.00242 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.55% ) [3] Performance counter stats for 'nmcli' (50 runs): 352.36 msec task-clock:u # 1.027 CPUs utilized ( +- 0.32% ) 0 context-switches:u # 0.000 K/sec 0 cpu-migrations:u # 0.000 K/sec 4,790 page-faults:u # 0.014 M/sec ( +- 0.26% ) 1,092,341,186 cycles:u # 3.100 GHz ( +- 0.26% ) 1,209,045,283 instructions:u # 1.11 insn per cycle ( +- 0.02% ) 281,708,462 branches:u # 799.499 M/sec ( +- 0.01% ) 3,101,031 branch-misses:u # 1.10% of all branches ( +- 0.61% ) 0.34296 +- 0.00120 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.35% ) --- N5) same setup as N4), but run `PAGER= /bin/time -v nmcli`: [1] Command being timed: "nmcli" User time (seconds): 0.42 System time (seconds): 0.04 Percent of CPU this job got: 107% Elapsed (wall clock) time (h:mm:ss or m:ss): 0:00.43 Average shared text size (kbytes): 0 Average unshared data size (kbytes): 0 Average stack size (kbytes): 0 Average total size (kbytes): 0 Maximum resident set size (kbytes): 34456 Average resident set size (kbytes): 0 Major (requiring I/O) page faults: 0 Minor (reclaiming a frame) page faults: 6128 Voluntary context switches: 1298 Involuntary context switches: 1106 Swaps: 0 File system inputs: 0 File system outputs: 0 Socket messages sent: 0 Socket messages received: 0 Signals delivered: 0 Page size (bytes): 4096 Exit status: 0 [2] Command being timed: "nmcli" User time (seconds): 0.44 System time (seconds): 0.04 Percent of CPU this job got: 108% Elapsed (wall clock) time (h:mm:ss or m:ss): 0:00.44 Average shared text size (kbytes): 0 Average unshared data size (kbytes): 0 Average stack size (kbytes): 0 Average total size (kbytes): 0 Maximum resident set size (kbytes): 34452 Average resident set size (kbytes): 0 Major (requiring I/O) page faults: 0 Minor (reclaiming a frame) page faults: 6169 Voluntary context switches: 1849 Involuntary context switches: 142 Swaps: 0 File system inputs: 0 File system outputs: 0 Socket messages sent: 0 Socket messages received: 0 Signals delivered: 0 Page size (bytes): 4096 Exit status: 0 [3] Command being timed: "nmcli" User time (seconds): 0.32 System time (seconds): 0.02 Percent of CPU this job got: 102% Elapsed (wall clock) time (h:mm:ss or m:ss): 0:00.34 Average shared text size (kbytes): 0 Average unshared data size (kbytes): 0 Average stack size (kbytes): 0 Average total size (kbytes): 0 Maximum resident set size (kbytes): 29196 Average resident set size (kbytes): 0 Major (requiring I/O) page faults: 0 Minor (reclaiming a frame) page faults: 5059 Voluntary context switches: 919 Involuntary context switches: 685 Swaps: 0 File system inputs: 0 File system outputs: 0 Socket messages sent: 0 Socket messages received: 0 Signals delivered: 0 Page size (bytes): 4096 Exit status: 0 --- N6) same setup as N4), but run `nmcli monitor` and look at `ps aux` for the RSS size.

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.

libnm: hide GObject structs from public API and embed private data These types are all subclasses of NMObject. These instances are commonly created by NMClient itself. It makes no sense that a user would instantiate the type. Much less does it make sense to subclass them. Hide the object and class structures from public API. This is an API and ABI break, but of something that is very likely unused. This is mainly done to embed the private structure in the object itself. This has benefits for performance and debugability. But most importantly, we can obtain a static offset where to access the private data. That means, we can use the information to access the data pointer generically, as we will need later. This is not done for the internal types NMManager, NMRemoteSettings, and NMDnsManager. These types will be dropped later.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

* interface, we create a NMDeviceBridge. Basically, if it looks like a certain
* object (based on the D-Bus interface), we assume it is.
*
* Some interfaces are purely additional ("org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.Statistics")
* and don't determine the NMObject type (%NML_DBUS_META_INTERFACE_PRIO_NONE).
*
* Some interfaces are of a parent type ("org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device" for

*
* Some interfaces ("org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.AgentManager") belong to NMClient
* itself. Those have priority %NML_DBUS_META_INTERFACE_PRIO_NMCLIENT.
*
* In most cases, each D-Bus object is expected to have only one D-Bus interface
* to determine the type. While theoretically an object
* "/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/3" could have interfaces "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.Bridge"
* and "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.Bond" at the same time, in practice it doesn't.
* Note that we also assume that once a D-Bus object gets a NMObject, it cannot change (*).
* NetworkManager's API does not add/remove interfaces after exporting the object the

* and wrong.
*
* One exception is "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Connection.Active". This can either
* be a NMActiveConnection or a NMVpnConnection. Hence, this profile has priority
* %NML_DBUS_META_INTERFACE_PRIO_INSTANTIATE_LOW, and depending on whether there is
* a "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.VPN.Connection" (with high priority), we create
* one or the other type.

NMLDBusMetaInteracePrio interface_prio : 3;
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.

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.

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.

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.

void _nml_dbus_meta_class_init_with_properties_impl(GObjectClass * object_class,
const NMLDBusMetaIface *const *meta_iface);
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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()).

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

NMLDBusObjState obj_state : 4;
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.

NMLDBusObjChangedType obj_changed_type : 3;
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.

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.

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.

NMLDBusObject *nml_dbus_object_ref(NMLDBusObject *dbobj);
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.

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.

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.

const NMLDBusMetaProperty *meta_property);
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.

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.

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.

libnm: hide GObject structs from public API and embed private data These types are all subclasses of NMObject. These instances are commonly created by NMClient itself. It makes no sense that a user would instantiate the type. Much less does it make sense to subclass them. Hide the object and class structures from public API. This is an API and ABI break, but of something that is very likely unused. This is mainly done to embed the private structure in the object itself. This has benefits for performance and debugability. But most importantly, we can obtain a static offset where to access the private data. That means, we can use the information to access the data pointer generically, as we will need later. This is not done for the internal types NMManager, NMRemoteSettings, and NMDnsManager. These types will be dropped later.

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.

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.

libnm: hide GObject structs from public API and embed private data These types are all subclasses of NMObject. These instances are commonly created by NMClient itself. It makes no sense that a user would instantiate the type. Much less does it make sense to subclass them. Hide the object and class structures from public API. This is an API and ABI break, but of something that is very likely unused. This is mainly done to embed the private structure in the object itself. This has benefits for performance and debugability. But most importantly, we can obtain a static offset where to access the private data. That means, we can use the information to access the data pointer generically, as we will need later. This is not done for the internal types NMManager, NMRemoteSettings, and NMDnsManager. These types will be dropped later.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

libnm: hide GObject structs from public API and embed private data These types are all subclasses of NMObject. These instances are commonly created by NMClient itself. It makes no sense that a user would instantiate the type. Much less does it make sense to subclass them. Hide the object and class structures from public API. This is an API and ABI break, but of something that is very likely unused. This is mainly done to embed the private structure in the object itself. This has benefits for performance and debugability. But most importantly, we can obtain a static offset where to access the private data. That means, we can use the information to access the data pointer generically, as we will need later. This is not done for the internal types NMManager, NMRemoteSettings, and NMDnsManager. These types will be dropped later.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

libnm: hide GObject structs from public API and embed private data These types are all subclasses of NMObject. These instances are commonly created by NMClient itself. It makes no sense that a user would instantiate the type. Much less does it make sense to subclass them. Hide the object and class structures from public API. This is an API and ABI break, but of something that is very likely unused. This is mainly done to embed the private structure in the object itself. This has benefits for performance and debugability. But most importantly, we can obtain a static offset where to access the private data. That means, we can use the information to access the data pointer generically, as we will need later. This is not done for the internal types NMManager, NMRemoteSettings, and NMDnsManager. These types will be dropped later.

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.

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.

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).

NMClient *_nm_object_get_client(gpointer self);
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.

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.

const char *_nm_client_get_dbus_name_owner(NMClient *client);
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.

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.

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.

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.

void _nm_client_notify_object_changed(NMClient *self, NMLDBusObject *dbobj);
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

NMClientNotifyEventWithPtr *notify_event);
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

void _nm_client_get_settings_call(NMClient *self, NMLDBusObject *dbobj);
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.

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()).

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.

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".

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.

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.

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.

void _nm_vpn_connection_state_changed_commit(NMVpnConnection *self, guint32 state, guint32 reason);
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.
