This allows a user to restore the previous behavior where NetworkManager
would not reconfigure the MTU during device activation, if no MTU is
available (commit "22e8af6 device: set a per-device default MTU on
activation").
Well, not exactly. The previous behavior was to use per-connection
configuration, then DHCP provided value, or finally leave the MTU
unspecified.
Now, we prefer a per-connection configuration, followed by a global
connection default. If "ethernet.mtu=0", the MTU is left unspecified.
In absense of a global connection default, the value from DHCP is used
or finally a per-device-type default. That is effectively 1500 for most
types, except for infiniband where the MTU is still left unspecified.
Instead of overwriting ip4_config_pre_commit(), add a new function
get_mtu().
This also adds a default value in case there is no user-configuration.
This will allow us later to reset a default MTU based on the device
type.
Instead of creating a GSList use an array. That way, we save
the allocation and free of an GSList instance. Also, avoid
cloning the export path. It is stable.
This usually indicates that the driver missed beacons from the AP, due to driver bugs
or faulty power-save management. It doesn't mean that the PSK is wrong.
Previously, we would require a @self argument and the @call_id in
nm_act_request_cancel_secrets(), although the @call_id already has
a pointer to @self.
In principle that is not necessary, but it makes the API a bit
more robust as you need to care about the lifetime of the @req
as well.
However it is a bit inconvenient, because it requires that caller to
track both the activation request and the call-id.
Now, allow nm_act_request_get_secrets() to instruct the call-id to
take an additional reference to @self. Later on, we would allow to omit
the argument during cancelling. We only allow this, if the call-id
takes a reference to @self.
This makes it easier to install the files with proper names.
Also, it makes the makefile rules slightly simpler.
Lastly, the documentation is now generated into docs/api, which makes it
possible to get rid of the awkward relative file names in docbook.
Keep the include paths clean and separate. We use directories to group source
files together. That makes sense (I guess), but then we should use this
grouping also when including files. Thus require to #include files with their
path relative to "src/".
Also, we build various artifacts from the "src/" tree. Instead of having
individual CFLAGS for each artifact in Makefile.am, the CFLAGS should be
unified. Previously, the CFLAGS for each artifact differ and are inconsistent
in which paths they add to the search path. Fix the inconsistency by just
don't add the paths at all.
Otherwise its path remains visible on D-Bus despite the object is gone,
making libnm sad and grumpy:
libnm-WARNING **: no object known for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/AccessPoint/666
We only needed proper glib enum types for having properties
and signal arguments. These got all converted to plain int,
so no longer generate such an enum type.
Had to rename "nm-enum-types.h" because it works badly with
"libnm/nm-enum-types.h". Maybe I could fix that differently,
but duplicate names is anyway error prone.
Note that "nm-core-enum-types.h" is already taken too, so
"nm-src-enum-types.h" it is.
We should enable tests by default, probably we even should drop
the configure flags to enable tests and just always build them.
Anyway, at this point there is no use in guarding check-local
with a check for ENABLE_TESTS. A user who does't want to run
the tests, should just not call `make check`.
An interface would make sense to allow the actual device-factory to inherit
from another type.
However, glib interfaces make code much harder to follow and less
efficient. The device factory shall be a very simple type with meta data
about supported device types and the ability to create device instances.
There is no need to make this an interface implementation, instead just
let the factories inherit from NM_TYPE_DEVICE_FACTORY directly.
All callers of request_wireless_scan() cleared the periodic scan
source immediately before calling the function, so just move that
into request_wireless_scan(). The only one that doesn't clear
it is request_wireless_scan_periodic() but that sets the source
id to 0 already, so the clear has no effect.

First of all, G_LOG_DOMAIN only matters when using g_log() directly.
Inside core, we always want to log via nm-logging. Every call to a
g_log() is a bug in the first place (like a failed assertion that logs
a g_critical() during g_return_if_fail()).
So, for all practic purposes, the logging domain is not used.
For nm-logging, the G_LOG_DOMAIN has no effect. Unless we find a proper
use of this domain, G_LOG_DOMAIN should not differ from what the rest of
core.
NMAccessPoint was in file "nm-wifi-ap.h" with
method nm_ap_*(). Make the naming consistent.
Also rename "nm-wifi-ap-utils.*" as it contains general
purpose wifi utilities. No need to have special "ap" utilities.
Same for "test-wifi-ap-utils.c". It just contains general wifi
tests.

NMPolicy:auto_activate_device() would wrongly not free the
specific_object, although it is documented as transfer-full.
The only implementation of can_auto_connect() that returned
a specific-object is NMDeviceWifi:can_auto_connect(). So, there
wasn't any actual bug or memory leak.

Instead of letting the sub-class check the "enabled" state, let
it be handled by nm_device_bring_up().
Note that nm_device_get_enabled() only has two implementations:
NMDeviceModem:bring_up() and NMDeviceWifi:bring_up().
The virtual function NMDevice:set_enabled() has two implementations:
NMDeviceModem and NMDeviceWifi. Likewise, the get_enabled() function
should also be implemented by those types.
The only caller of nm_device_get_enabled() is NMPolicy:schedule_activate_check().
It is correct to skip Wi-Fi devices based on their enabled state.
- don't include "nm-default.h" in header files. Every source file must
include as first header "nm-default.h", thus our headers get the
default include already implicitly.
- we don't support compiling NetworkManager itself with a C++ compiler. Remove
G_BEGIN_DECLS/G_END_DECLS from internal headers. We do however support
users of libnm to use C++, thus they stay in public headers.
(cherry picked from commit f19aff8909)
- make NMDeviceWifi and NMDeviceWifiClass internal, opaque
structures
- embed private data in NMDeviceWifi
- implement GObject properties via NM_GOBJECT_PROPERTIES_DEFINE()

During shutdown, we unmanage Wi-Fi devices, and during NMDevice:deactivate()
we would reset to initial MAC address.
However, NMDeviceWifi:deactivate() would reset it again to the scanning one.
Fix that to properly restore the initial MAC address on the device
when NetworkManager exits.

For the per-connection settings "ethernet.cloned-mac-address"
and "wifi.cloned-mac-address", and for the per-device setting
"wifi.scan-rand-mac-address", we may generate MAC addresses using
either the "random" or "stable" algorithm.
Add new properties "generate-mac-address-mask" that allow to configure
which bits of the MAC address will be scrambled.
By default, the "random" and "stable" algorithms scamble all bits
of the MAC address, including the OUI part and generate a locally-
administered, unicast address.
By specifying a MAC address mask, we can now configure to perserve
parts of the current MAC address of the device. For example, setting
"FF:FF:FF:00:00:00" will preserve the first 3 octects of the current
MAC address.
One can also explicitly specify a MAC address to use instead of the
current MAC address. For example, "FF:FF:FF:00:00:00 68:F7:28:00:00:00"
sets the OUI part of the MAC address to "68:F7:28" while scrambling
the last 3 octects.
Similarly, "02:00:00:00:00:00 00:00:00:00:00:00" will scamble
all bits of the MAC address, except clearing the second-least
significant bit. Thus, creating a burned-in address, globally
administered.
One can also supply a list of MAC addresses like
"FF:FF:FF:00:00:00 68:F7:28:00:00:00 00:0C:29:00:00:00 ..." in which
case a MAC address is choosen randomly.
To fully scamble the MAC address one can configure
"02:00:00:00:00:00 00:00:00:00:00:00 02:00:00:00:00:00".
which also randomly creates either a locally or globally administered
address.
With this, the following macchanger options can be implemented:
`macchanger --random`
This is the default if no mask is configured.
-> ""
while is the same as:
-> "00:00:00:00:00:00"
-> "02:00:00:00:00:00 02:00:00:00:00:00"
`macchanger --random --bia`
-> "02:00:00:00:00:00 00:00:00:00:00:00"
`macchanger --ending`
This option cannot be fully implemented, because macchanger
uses the current MAC address but also implies --bia.
-> "FF:FF:FF:00:00:00"
This would yields the same result only if the current MAC address
is already a burned-in address too. Otherwise, it has not the same
effect as --ending.
-> "FF:FF:FF:00:00:00 <MAC_ADDR>"
Alternatively, instead of using the current MAC address,
spell the OUI part out. But again, that is not really the
same as macchanger does because you explictly have to name
the OUI part to use.
`machanger --another`
`machanger --another_any`
-> "FF:FF:FF:00:00:00 <MAC_ADDR> <MAC_ADDR> ..."
"$(printf "FF:FF:FF:00:00:00 %s\n" "$(sed -n 's/^\([0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F]\) \([0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F]\) \([0-9a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F]\) .*/\1:\2:\3:00:00:00/p' /usr/share/macchanger/wireless.list | xargs)")"
Add new virtual function nm_device_unmanage_on_quit() to determine
whether to unmanage the device on shutdown.
This allows Wi-Fi devices to always be unmanaged. We want that to
reset the initial MAC address.
This allows the user to disable MAC address randomization during
scanning for Wi-Fi networks, which is done by default.
For one, this allows the user to disable the randomization for whatever
reason.
Also, together with configuring the per-connection setting
wifi.cloned-mac-address=preserve, this allows to disable NetworkManager
to modify the MAC address of the interface. This may allow the user
to set the MAC address outside of NetworkManager without NetworkManager
interfering.
'wireless.mac-address-randomization' broke 'wireless.cloned-mac-address',
because we would always set 'PreassocMacAddr=1'. The reason is that
supplicant would set 'wpa_s->mac_addr_changed' during scanning, and
later during association it would either set a random MAC address or
reset the permanent MAC address [1].
Anyway, 'wireless.mac-address-randomization' conflicts with
'wireless.cloned-mac-address'. Instead of letting supplicant set the
MAC address, manage the MAC addresses entirely from NetworkManager.
Supplicant should not touch it.
