We've had a few rare instances where a modem stopped retrying
to autoconnect because it briefly didn't have an operator code.
This isn't a permanent failure, so we shouldn't abort completely
for it.
The flag is used for both sleeping and networking disabled conditions.
This is because internally they share logic, but it's not obvious for
users and it has caused confusion in the past when investigating why
devices didn't become managed. Make it explicit that it can be because
of either reason.
It would be better to create two separate flags, actually, and it
doesn't seem complex, but better not to risk introducing bugs for that
little benefit.

When we disable networking with `nmcli networking off` the reason that
is logged is "sleeping". Explain instead that networking is disabled.

The daemon is now capable of understanding and removing these prefix
tags by itself. It is better than this is not a responsibility of the
secret agent because it requires changes in all secret agents to work
properly (see https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues/1536).
If the secret agent knows what these prefix tags are, it can remove them
only in the text that is displayed in the UI, but maintaining the
original string as the secret name that is returned to the daemon.
Secret agents that doesn't know what these prefix tags are won't do
anything with them, and they will also return the same string as secret
name, as expected. The only drawback is that they might display the full
string to the user, which is not a nice UX but it will at least work.
Also, allow to translate the secret name for the UI in libnmc.
A common source for doubts and questions from users is about why
devices are unmanaged. Unfortunately NM doesn't expose that
information properly via D-Bus and so it's not available in nmcli.
The device D-Bus object has two properties that are strictly related:
"state" and "state-reason". The latter represents the reason for the
current state. Introduce new reasons to indicate the possible causes
for the unmanaged state. Note that a device can be unmanaged because
of multiple reasons at the same time, we only return one.

If the device-handler of the generic connection is set, the connection
is virtual and the device is created by invoking the device-handler
via NetworkManager-dispatcher service.
With this change, a generic device now represents two different device
classes:
- existing interfaces that are not natively supported or recognized
by NetworkManager. Those devices have the `has_device_handler`
property set to FALSE;
- interfaces that are created by NM by invoking the device-handler;
they have `has_device_handler` set to TRUE.

Depending on the type of challenge used in the 2FA authentication, the
user input doesn't need to be hidden and sometimes it's even undesired
(it makes more difficult to enter the text).
Allow to VPN plugins to indicate that a secret that is being requested
is a 2FA challenge with ECHO mode enabled:
- When using auth dialog: accept a new option "ForceEcho" that can be
set to TRUE to enable ECHO.
- When using the fallback method: recognize the prefix
"x-dynamic-challenge-echo". This indicate both that ECHO should be enabled
and that this is a 2FA challenge (see previous commit).
The correct way to enable echo mode from VPN plugins is doing both
things: pass the hint prefixed with "x-dynamic-challenge-echo" and add the
option "ForceEcho=true" for the auth dialog.
An attempt to support ECHO mode from NM-openvpn was made by passing
"IsSecret=false", but it didn't work because nm-secret-agent-simple
ignores returned values for which "IsSecret=false". It's not a good idea
to start accepting them because we could break other plugins, and anyway
the challenge response is actually a secret, so it is better to keep it
as such and add this new "ForceEcho" option.
This is backwards compatible because existing plugins were not using the
tag nor the auth dialog option. Withouth them, the previous behaviour is
preserved. On the contrary, plugins that want to use this new feature
will need to bump their NM version dependency because old daemons will
not handle correctly the prefix tag.
Secret agents will need to be updated to check secret->force_echo if
they want to support this feature. Until they update, the only drawback
is that ECHO mode will be ignored and the user's input will be hidden.
Updated nmcli and nmtui to support ECHO mode.
(cherry picked from commit 2ab56e82d4)
Clients using nm-secret-agent-simple always asked for some default VPN
secrets, which are dependent on the VPN service, when the auth dialog
can't be used and the fallback method is used instead.
When using 2FA this has to be avoided in the 2nd step because those
default secrets were already requested and validated in the 1st step.
Fix it by adding a new "x-dynamic-challenge" prefix tag that can be used
in the hints received from the VPN plugin. This tag indicates that we
are in the 2nd step of a 2FA authentication. This way we know that we
don't have to request the default secrets this time. Note that the tag
name doesn't explicitly mention VPNs so it can be reused for other type
of connections in the future.
As the default secrets were requested always unconditionally when using
the fallback method, there is no possible workaround to this problem
that avoids having to change libnm-client.
The change is backwards compatible because VPN plugins were not using
the tag and the previous behaviour does not change if the tag is not
used. However, VPN plugins that want to properly support 2FA
aunthentication will need to bump the NM version dependency because
old daemons won't handle properly a hint with the new prefix tag.
Finally, move the macro that defines the "x-vpn-message:" tag in a public
header so it is more visible for users. It has been renamed and prefixed
with the NM_ namespace so it shouldn't collide with macros defined in
the VPN plugins.

The bottom border of the generated QR code had a different thickness
compared to other borders.
Improve it by using Upper Half Block so that all borders have similar
thickness.
- use G_N_ELEMENTS() macro instead of having separate defines. The separate
defines mean that when we check g_return_val_if_fail(oc_argc <= OC_ARGS_MAX, FALSE)
that we must double check that OC_ARGS_MAX is really the size of the array
that we want to check.
- replace g_return_val_if_fail() with nm_assert(). In this case, it should be
very clear by review that the buffer is indeed large enough and the assertion
holds. Use nm_assert().
- use unsigned integer for the loop variables. While int theoretically
might exploit undefined behavior of signed overflow, we should instead
use unsigned at places where it's appropriate (for example, those
variables are compared against G_N_ELEMENTS() which gives a size_t type.
- declare auto variables on separate lines.
- make the global variable oc_property_args static and const. The const
means the linker will put it into read-only memory, so we would get
a crash on accidental modification.
With old versions of openconnect we need to extract the port# from the
initial URL and then append it to the hostname we eventually get back.
Using strrchr(gw, ':') isn't going to work right with IPv6 literals,
ad we should also be dropping any path element.
So switch to using an int for the port instead of a string, and import a
cut-down variant of openconnect's internal_parse_url() which does
*largely* the same thing with strrchr() but is saved by using the 'end'
value returned from strtol() and insisting that the port is the very
end of the host part of the URL.
Rather than letting openconnect run, and whine that there's no gateway,
and making the user scroll up past the openconnect usage information,
give them an explicit error.
Pull a bunch of stuff into nm_vpn_openconnect_authenticate_helper() that
both callers were doing for themselves, and make its API a bit simpler.
It's given the NMSettingVpn and the GPtrArray of secrets, and it simply
succeeds or fails.
Ideally, we wouldn't have this hard-coded in NetworkManager itself; we
would invoke a tool to do it for us, like the GUI auth-dialog, which
can live in the NetworkManager-openconnect repository and be kept up
to date as new options are added.
To start with though, let's bring it into sync. We don't add new options
that often, and this will cover the majority of use cases.
Since OpenConnect 8.20, 'openconnect --authenticate' will return the
full gateway URL, including the hostname and the path. This allows
servers behind SNI-based proxies to work. To ensure we end up at the
same IP address even behind round-robin DNS, there is a separate
--resolve argument.
Update nmcli/nmtui to use this, as NetworkManager-openconnect does.
Shift some of the logic into the nm_vpn_openconnect_authenticate_helper()
function instead of duplicating it in the callers.
Also, pass the correct protocol in rather than only supporting Cisco
AnyConnect.

This can only be done for our internal usages. The public headers

This is the version shipped in Fedora 37. As Fedora 37 is now out, the
core developers switch to it. Our gitlab-ci will also use that as base
image for the check-{patch.tree} tests and to generate the pages. There
is a need that everybody agrees on which clang-format version to use,
and that version should be the one of the currently used Fedora release.
Also update the used Fedora image in "contrib/scripts/nm-code-format-container.sh"
script.
The gitlab-ci still needs update in the following commit. The change
in isolation will break the "check-tree" test.
NM_STR_BUF_INIT() and nm_str_buf_init() were pretty much redundant. Drop one of
them.
Usually our pattern is that we don't have functions that return structs.
But NM_STR_BUF_INIT() returns a struct, because it's convenient to use
with
nm_auto_str_buf NMStrBuf strbuf = NM_STR_BUF_INIT(...);
So use that variant instead.
Don't log the failure to spawn the auth dialog. This is polluting the
terminal when using nmcli when activating an OpenVPN profile if
/usr/libexec/nm-openvpn-auth-dialog is not available. Since nmcli can
still ask for the credentials, the missing auth dialog does not block
the activation, so the "warning" level is too much. Since it is a
library, any output to the terminal is bad, therefore remove the
logging.

We use clang-format for automatic formatting of our source files.
Since clang-format is actively maintained software, the actual
formatting depends on the used version of clang-format. That is
unfortunate and painful, but really unavoidable unless clang-format
would be strictly bug-compatible.
So the version that we must use is from the current Fedora release, which
is also tested by our gitlab-ci. Previously, we were using Fedora 34 with
clang-tools-extra-12.0.1-1.fc34.x86_64.
As Fedora 35 comes along, we need to update our formatting as Fedora 35
comes with version "13.0.0~rc1-1.fc35".
An alternative would be to freeze on version 12, but that has different
problems (like, it's cumbersome to rebuild clang 12 on Fedora 35 and it
would be cumbersome for our developers which are on Fedora 35 to use a
clang that they cannot easily install).
The (differently painful) solution is to reformat from time to time, as we
switch to a new Fedora (and thus clang) version.
Usually we would expect that such a reformatting brings minor changes.
But this time, the changes are huge. That is mentioned in the release
notes [1] as
Makes PointerAligment: Right working with AlignConsecutiveDeclarations. (Fixes https://llvm.org/PR27353)

In NetworkManager, a profile cannot have "ipvx.dns" or "ipvx.dns-search"
while the corresponding IP method is disabled. Together with the oddity
that in NetworkManager DNS settings are separate per IPv4 and IPv6, this
causes problems:
$ cat wg0.conf

$ nmcli connection import type wireguard file wg0.conf
Error: failed to import 'wg0.conf': Failed to create WireGuard connection: ipv6.dns-search: this property is not allowed for 'method=disabled'.
Fixes: 3ab082ed96 ('cli: support dns-search for import of WireGuard profiles')
This is actually trying *too* hard to prevent DNS leaks, breaking normal
expected use of split DNS. Let systemd-resolved handle sending our DNS
queries to the right place instead.
It's true that NetworkManager is trying to emulate the behavior of
wg-quick here, and wg-quick uses 'resolvconf -x' to attempt to set
"exclusive" DNS. But with systemd-resolved this is implemented by
setting a ~. routing domain for the Wireguard interface. That is a
*really* big hammer already, since Domain=~. overrides +DefaultRoute,
ensuring most DNS queries can only go to other interfaces with Domain=~.
NetworkManager follows systemd-resolved's recommended convention by only
applying Domain=~. to other "privacy VPNs" since 1.26.6. Setting DNS
priority only prevents *domain-specific* "leaks", which are almost
always desired. For example, it prevents using both the Wireguard VPN
and a corporate VPN at the same time.
Note that all of the justification behind !688 applies here as well.

- use strstrip() to remove leading and trailing whitespace
- use _nm_utils_ascii_str_to_int64() for parsing numeric values
like -1, 0 and 1. In particular, this now also allows passing
the numeric values.
- also accept "default" as valid value for NM_TERNARY_DEFAULT.
With this change, nmc_string_to_ternary() can also parse everything that
we commonly and currently parse with _nm_utils_enum_from_str_full()
and NM_TYPE_TERNARY. This will allow to configure ternary values in
a more flexible way.
- use strstrip() to remove leading and trailing whitespace
- use _nm_utils_ascii_str_to_int64() for parsing numeric values
like 0 and 1. The difference is small, for one, it also accepts
hex numbers like 0x1. More interestingly, it uses our common
number parsing function, and we will later do the same for
parsing ternaries.
g_set_error(error, 1, 0, ...) is not right. "1" is not a valid GQuark,
we should initialize proper error instances.
Use nm_utils_error_set() for that.
Also, the code previously hacked the numeric value "1" to indicate
ambiguous text. Add and use a new error code NM_UTILS_ERROR_AMBIGUOUS
for that.
With a const argument, we can make variables static const,
which means the linker loads the memory as read only.
Also, use NM_CAST_STRV_CC() macro, which casts the argument
accordingly.
