If sriov_totalvfs file doesn't exist we don't need to consider it a
fatal failure. Try to create the required number of VFs as we were doing
before.
Note: at least netdevsim doesn't have sriov_totalvfs file, I don't know
if there are real drivers that neither has it.
Set these parameters according to the values set in the new properties
sriov.eswitch-inline-mode and sriov.eswitch-encap-mode.
The number of parameters related to SR-IOV was becoming too big.
Refactor to group them in a NMPlatformSriovParams struct and pass it
around.
It is not safe to change the eswitch mode when there are VFs already
created: it often fails, or even worse, doesn't fail immediatelly but
there are later problems with the VFs.
What is supposed to be well tested in all drivers is to change the
eswitch mode with no VFs created, and then create the VFs, so let's set
num_vfs=0 before changing the eswitch mode.
As we want to change num_vfs asynchronously in a separate thread, we
need to do a multi-step process with callbacks each time that a step
finish (before it was just set num_vfs asynchronously and invoke the
callback when it's done).
This makes link_set_sriov_params_async to become even larger and more
complex than it already was. Refactor it to make it cleaner and easier
to follow, and hopefully less error prone, and implement that multi-step
process.
When doing reapply on linux bridge interface, NetworkManager will reset
the VLAN filtering and default PVID which cause PVID been readded to all
bridge ports regardless they are managed by NetworkManager.
This is because Linux kernel will re-add PVID to bridge port upon the
changes of bridge default-pvid value.
To fix the issue, this patch introduce netlink parsing code for
`vlan_filtering` and `default_pvid` of NMPlatformLnkBridge, and use that
to compare desired VLAN filtering settings, skip the reset of VLAN
filter if `default_pvid` and `vlan_filtering` are unchanged.

The supervision address is read-only. It is constructed by kernel and
only the last byte can be modified by setting the multicast-spec as
documented indeed.
As 1.46 was not released yet, we still can drop the whole API for this
setting property. We are keeping the NMDeviceHsr property as it is a
nice to have for reading it.

Fixes: 5426bdf4a1 ('HSR: add support to HSR/PRP interface')
This patch add support to HSR/PRP interface. Please notice that PRP
driver is represented as HSR too. They are different drivers but on
kernel they are integrated together.
HSR/PRP is a network protocol standard for Ethernet that provides
seamless failover against failure of any network component. It intends
to be transparent to the application. These protocols are useful for
applications that request high availability and short switchover time
e.g electrical substation or high power inverters.

glib's MIN()/MAX() will be replaced by NM_MIN()/NM_MAX().
There are however a few places where NM_MIN()/NM_MAX() cannot
be used.
Adjust those places to use NM_MIN_CONST()/NM_MAX_CONST() instead.
sysfs is deprecated and kernel will not add new bridge port options to
sysfs. Netlink is a stable API and therefore is the right method to
communicate with kernel in order to set the link options.
Remove all the code that was added for the CSME coexistence.
The Intel WiFi team can't commit on when, if at all, this feature will
be completely integrated and tested in the NetworkManager.
The preferred solution for now is the solution that involves the kernel
only.
Remove the code that was merged so far.
The macro uses g_alloca(). Using alloca() is potentially dangerous. For
example, it must never be used in an unbounded loop. This should be
immediately obvious from the name, so we don't accidentally use them
in the wrong context.
All other alloca() macros should have such a prefix already. And they
always have to be macros, because you couldn't use alloca() to return
memory from a function.
sysfs is deprecated and kernel will not add new bond port options to
sysfs. Netlink is a stable API and therefore is the right method to
communicate with kernel in order to set the link options.
We have other places like
nm_assert(!out_seq_result || *out_seq_result == WAIT_FOR_NL_RESPONSE_RESULT_UNKNOWN);
where we explicitly compare against WAIT_FOR_NL_RESPONSE_RESULT_UNKNOWN.
Do that here too.
With a small buffer (of 4K) and many links (100 ethernet adapters), I've
seen up to ~15 retries of link change until things settled.
Let's increase this. Still a »bulharská konštanta« but possibly safer and
more broadly useful (so we can cap the link change retry count too).
If the automatically selected channel for an AP is set as NO-IR in the
current regulatory domain, the hotspot connection will fail to
start. NO-IR means that any mechanisms that initiate radiation are not
permitted on this channel, this includes sending probe requests or
modes of operation that require beaconing such as AP. Skip channels
with the NO-IR flag.
This is the IPv6 equivalent of arp_ip_target option. It requires
arp_interval set and allow the user to specify up to 16 IPv6 addresses
as targets. By default, the list is empty.
The valid values for this option are 0 (off) and 1 (on). By default the
value is 1 (on). Please notice that this option is only compatible with
802.3AD mode.
The new arp_missed_max option valid range is 0-255 where value 0 means
not set. Please notice that this option is not compatible with 802.3AD,
balance-tlb and balance-alb modes.
There are many functions to replace properties of a link
(link_set_address, link_set_mtu, link_set_name, link_change,
etc.). Eventually, they will be replaced by a function that does
everything and removes all the code duplication.
That function will be named link_change(); rename the current
link_change() to link_change_extra().
It is not clear how that information is relevant. Since it is also
only logged when building with a non-default configure option, this
doesn't seem useful. Drop it.
- unindent the code by "continue" the loop for the irrelevant case.
- fix indentation of comments.
- avoid unnecessary g_strdup() call if the extack message is NULL.
Consistently name those variables and parameters "extack_msg".
The previous term "errmsg"/"msg" was not used consistently, and it
is also not clear what message this really is. For netlink, it
is well understood what Extended ACK means.
We just lookup the link info by ifindex. There is no guarantee that that
ifindex is of the expected type, to have a suitable ext-data. Check for
that.

The onlink flag is part of each next hop.
When NetworkManager configures ECMP routes, we won't support that. All
next hops of an ECMP route must share the same onlink flag. That is fine
and fixed by this commit.
What is not fine, is that we don't track the rtnh_flags flags in
NMPlatformIP4RtNextHop, and consequently our nmp_object_id_cmp() is
wrong.

(cherry picked from commit 6ed966258c)
For IPv6, kernel doesn't care. If the gateway is ::, you may or may
not set the onlink attribute. But for IPv4 routes, that gets rejected:
# ip route add 1.2.3.4/32 dev v onlink
Error: Invalid flags for nexthop - PERVASIVE and ONLINK can not be set.
Silently suppress setting the flag in that case and ignore the user
request. After all, the effect is probably the same (that is, the route
is onlink anyway).

The major point of NMDedupMultiIndex is that it can de-duplicate
the objects. It thus makes sense the everybody is using the same
instance. Make the multi-idx instance of NMPlatform configurable.
This is not used outside of unit tests, because the daemon currently
always creates one platform instance and everybody then re-uses the
instance of the platform.
While this is (currently) only used by tests, and that the performance
optimization of de-duplicating is irrelevant for tests, this is still
useful. The test can then check whether two separate NMPlatform objects
shared the same instance and whether it was de-duplicated.
When you issue
ip route replace broadcast 1.2.3.4/32 dev eth0
then this route may well replace a (unicast) route that we have in
the cache.
Previously, we would right away ignore such messages in
_new_from_nl_route(), which means we miss the fact that a route gets
replaced.
Instead, we need to parse the message at least so far, that we can
detect and handle the replace.
We don't cache certain routes, for example based on the protocol. This is
a performance optimization to ignore routes that we usually don't care
about.
Still, if the user does `ip route replace` with such a route, then we
need to pass it to nmp_cache_update_netlink_route(), so that we can
properly remove the replaced route.
Knowing which route was replaces might be impossible, as our cache does
not contain all routes. Likely all that nmp_cache_update_netlink_route()
can to is to set "resync_required" for NLM_F_REPLACE. But for that it
should see the object first.
This also means, if we ever write a BPF filter to filter out messages
that contain NLM_F_REPLACE, because that would lead to cache inconsistencies.
In kernel, the valid range for the weight is 1-256 (on netlink this is
expressed as u8 in rtnh_hops, ranging 0-255).
We need an additional value, to represent
- unset weight, for non-ECMP routes in kernel.
- in libnm API, to express routes that should not be merged as ECMP
routes (the default).
Extend the type in NMPlatformIP4Route.weight to u16, and fix the code
for the special handling of the numeric range.
Also the libnm API needs to change. Modify the type of the attribute on
D-Bus from "b" to "u", to use a 32 bit integer. We use 32 bit, because
we already have common code to handle 32 bit unsigned integers, despite
only requiring 257 values. It seems better to stick to a few data types
(u32) instead of introducing more, only because the range is limited.
