The info is extracted via SIOCETHTOOL ioctl() syscall using ETHTOOL_GDRVINFO.
This works for most drivers but not all, e.g. for modems. We may figure out how
to get the info for specific devices, and enhance the solution by implementing
specific functions for particular device types later.
It is bound to autoconnect_inhibit private variable (has opposite meaning).
While 'Autoconnect' is TRUE (default value) the device can automatically
activate a connection. If it is changed to FALSE, the device will not
auto-activate until 'Autoconnect' is TRUE again.
Disconnect() method sets 'Autoconnect' to FALSE. NMPolicy monitors the property
and schedules auto activation when FALSE->TRUE transition is made.
"InfiniBand" has a capital "B". Fix that everywhere it's being used as
a human-readable string.
In particular, the RH initscripts recognize "TYPE=infiniband" and
"TYPE=InfiniBand", but not "TYPE=Infiniband", which is what we were
writing before.
Many different interface types can support VLANs, including
Infiniband, WiFi, etc. So we have to create a new device class
for them instead of keeping the support in NMDeviceEthernet.
Allows clients to retrieve the reason a device changed to
the given state along with the state itself, preventing
race conditions if the state were retrieved separately
from the reason. Reason codes were not previously
accessible without listening to the StateChanged signal.
Enables easier traversal of the object hierarchy; if a client is
watching signals on a device they can easily get back to the
parent NMActiveConnection object to grab connection details or
status.
Will be used for things like activating a VPN connection before
signaling that the device is activated, or maybe for bridges and
bonds, to ensure that applications don't think the system has
connectivity before everything is set up.
We'll use IP_CHECK for detecting whether we're behind a captive
portal or on a network that does not have access to the Internet.
We'll probably run some variety of plugins during this stage to
help detect this, and possibly handle it for us (auto-login to
captive portal for example).
DEACTIVATING will be used for tearing down network shares or
cleanly closing network sessions when we're able to clean up
an activation. ie, "pre-down" for Debian.
Track missing firmware and ensure the device can't be used when firmware
is missing. Add a property for missing firmware so that clients can do
something intelligent with this information.
In the past networkmanager did not allow to manually disconnect devices.
Manually disconnected devices will not be automatically reconnected until one
of the following events occur:
1. user activates a connection for the currently disconnected device
2. network manager awakes from hibernate/suspend
3. network manager is restarted (e.g. reboot)
Add a Disconnect method to generic NMDevice dbus interface; set a new private
autoconnect_inhibit flag if Disconnect method is called through dbus.
Based on this auto activation for devices gets inhibited until one
of the above events occur.
Instead of doing this in every device subclass, do it in the NMDevice
superclass. nm_device_can_activate() already did the same logic that
each of the subclass device_state_changed() handlers were doing to
figure out whether they could do the transition from unavailable
to disconnected, so just use that in NMDevice and kill lots of code.
Mark activation requests that contain connections to be assumed,
and use that to short-circuit various parts of the activation
process by not touching various device attributes, since they
are already set up. Also ensure the device is not deactivated
when it initially becomes managed, because that would kill the
connection we are about to assume.
The only thing that doesn't work yet is the system-settings service's
"auto eth" connections for ethernet devices that don't have an existing
connection. Might also have issues with unmanaged devices that can't
provide a MAC address until they are brought up, but we'll see.
