IPv6 temporary addresses are configured by kernel, with the
"ipv6.ip6-privacy" setting ("use_tempaddr" sysctl) and the
IFA_F_MANAGETEMPADDR flag.
As such, the idea was that during reapply we would not remove them.
However, that is wrong.
The only case when we want to keep those addresses, is if during reapply
we are going to configure the same primary address (with mngtmpaddr
flag) again. Otherwise, theses addresses must always go away.
This is quite serious. This not only affects Reapply. Also during disconnect
we clear IP configuration via l3cfg.
Have an ethernet profile active with "ipv6.ip6-privacy". Unplug
the cable, the device disconnects but the temporary IPv6 address is not
cleared. As such, nm_device_generate_connection() will now generate
an external profile (with "ipv6.method=disabled" and no manual IP addresses).
The result is, that the device cannot properly autoconnect again,
once you replug the cable.
This is serious for disconnect. But I could not actually reproduce the
problem using reapply. That is, because during reapply we usually
toggle ipv6_disable sysctl, which drops all IPv6 addresses. I still
went through the effort of trying to preserve addresses that we still
want to have, because I am not sure whether there are cases where we
don't toggle ipv6_disable. Also, doing ipv6_disable during reapply is
bad anyway, and we might want to avoid that in the future.

Use a union, it makes more sense.
Note that with union, C's struct initialization might not sufficiently
set all fields to the default. In practice yes, but theoretically in C
a NULL pointer and floats must not have all zero bits, so the following
is not guaranteed to work:
struct {
int some_field;
union {
void *v_ptr;
int v_int;
};
} variable = {
.some_field = 24,
};
assert(variable.union.v_ptr == 0);
assert(variable.union.v_int == 0);
When initializing the variable, we should not rely on automatically
initialize all union members correctly. It cannot at the same time
set NULL pointers and zero integers -- well, on our architectures it
probably can, but not as far as guaranteed by C language.
We need to know which union field we are going to use and initialize
it explicitly.
As we know the provider type, we can do that.
Also, maybe in the future we need special free/unref calls when
destroying the type specific data in NMCSProviderGetConfigIfaceData.
As we know the provider, we can.
Note that having type specific data in NMCSProviderGetConfigIfaceData.priv
is a layering violation. But it is still simpler than implementing
type specific handlers (callbacks) or tracking the data somewhere else.
After all, we know at compile time all the existing provider types.
(cherry picked from commit 1e696c7e93)
Let NMCSProviderGetConfigIfaceData.get_config_data have a pointer to the
NMCSProviderGetConfigTaskData. This will allow two things:
- at several places we pass on `nm_utils_user_data_pack(get_config_data,
config_iface_data)` as user data. We can avoid that, by just letting
config_iface_data have a pointer to get_config_data.
- NMCSProviderGetConfigIfaceData contains a provider specific field
"priv". That may also require special initialization or destruction,
depending on the type. We thus need access to the provider type,
which we have via iface_data->get_config_data->self.
Also let NMCSProviderGetConfigTaskData have a pointer "self" to the
NMCSProvider. While there was already the "task", which contains the
provider as source-object, this is more convenient.

The order of IPv4 addresses matters, in particular if they are in
the same subnet. Kernel will mark all but the first one as "secondary".
In NetworkManager's ipv4.addresses, the first address is the primary.
It seems that on aliyun cloud, "private-ipv4s" URL may give the
addresses in arbitrary order. The primary can be fetched from
"primary-ip-address".
Fix that by also fetching "primary-ip-address". Then, resort the array
so that the primary is the first one in the list.

(cherry picked from commit e5d4194673)
Try to do one change at a time when reconfiguring addresses, to not
remove several/all addresses at once.
For IP addresses, kernel cares about the order in which they were added.
This mostly affects source address selection, and the "secondary" flag
for IPv4 addresses. The order is thus related to the priority of an
address.
There is no direct kernel API to change the order. Instead, we have to
add them in the correct order. During a sync, if an address already
exists in the wrong order, we need to remove it, and re-add it.
Btw, with IPv4 addresses added first via netlink are the primary
address, while with IPv6 it's reverse.
Previously, we would first iterate over all addresses and remove those
that had a conflicting order. This means, that we would potentially
remove all addresses for a short while, before readding them. That seems
problematic.
Instead, first track all addresses that are in the wrong order. And in
the step when we add/update the address, remove it. We now only remove
and address shortly before re-adding it. This way the time for which the
address on the interface is missing is shorter. More importantly, we will
never remove all addresses at the same time.
(cherry picked from commit a6fd641634)
The order of addresses matters. For "ipv4.addresses", the list
contains the primary address first. For "ipv6.addresses", the
order was reverted. This was also documented behavior.
The previous patch just changed behavior with respect to relative order
of static IPv6 addresses and autoconf6/DHCPv6. As we seem in the mood
for changing behavior, here is another one.
Now the addresses are interpreted in an order consistent with IPv4 and
how one might expect: preferred addresses first.
(cherry picked from commit 3d6b6aa317)
The order of addresses can matter for source address selection.
This is described in RFC 6724 section 5, but if the rules don't
determine a clear winner, the order matters.
Change the relative order of IPv6 addresses. Previously, we would prefer
autoconf6, over DHCPv6, over manual addresses. Now that got reverted
to make more sense and be consistent with IPv4.
Also, if we had multiple autoconf6 addresses (received at different
moments in time), then previously a newly received address would be
added with highest priority. Now, the older address will be preferred
and that order will be enforced (this can be a problem, see (*) below).
For IPv4, it's all simple and sensible. When we add addresses in kernel
via netlink, the first address (of a subnet) becomes the primary.
Note that we only control the order of addresses of the same subnet.
The addresses in ipv4.addresses" are sorted with primary address first.
In the same way is the order for addresses in NML3ConfigData and for
@known_addresses in nm_platform_ip_address_sync(), all primary-first.
Also, manual addresses are sorted with higher priority compared to DHCPv4
addresses (at least since NetworkManager 1.36). That means the way how we
merge NML3ConfigData makes sense (nm_l3_config_data_merge()) because we first
merge the static configuration, then the DHCPv4 configuration, where we just
append the lower priority DHCPv4 addresses.
For IPv6, the address priority is messed up. On netlink/kernel, the last added
address becomes the preferred one (we thus need to add them in the order of
lowest priority first). Consequently and historically, the IPv6 addresses in
@known_addresses parameter to nm_platform_ip_address_sync() were
lowest priority first. And so they were tracked in NML3ConfigData
and in the profile ("ipv6.addresses"). That is confusing.
Also, we usually want to merge NML3ConfigData with different priorities
(e.g. static configuration from the profile before autoconf6/DHCPv6),
as we do with IPv4. However, since internally IPv6 addresses are tracked in
reverse order, it means later NML3ConfigData would be appended and get effectively
a higher priority. That means, autoconf6 addresses were preferred over DHCPv6 and
over manual "ipv6.addresses", respectively. That seems undesirable and inconsistent
with IPv4. Change that. This is a change in behavior.
Note that changing the order of addresses means to remove and re-add
them in the right (inverse) order, with lease important first. This
means, when we add a new address with lower priority, we need to remove
all higher priority addresses temporarily, before readding them. That
is a problem(*).
Note that in the profile, "ipv6.addresses" is still tracked in reverse
order. This did not change, but might change later.

(cherry picked from commit a850e438a7)
Of course, the prefix length cannot be larger than 32 or 128.
But as C does implicit conversions, a buggy prefix length can
lead to a (wrongly) valid prefix length.

unless you pass a huge 64 bit integer).

We call sync many times. Often there is nothing to update. Check the
cache first, before (re) adding it.
Note that many addresses have a limited lifetime, that is, a lifetime
that keeps counting down with seconds granularity. For those (common)
cases we will only avoid the call to kernel if there are two syncs
within less than a second.

ASSUME is causing more troubles than benefits it provides. This patch is
dropping NM_L3_CFG_COMMIT_TYPE_ASSUME and assume_config_once. NM3LCfg
will commit as if the sys-iface-state is MANAGED.
This patch is part of the effort to remove ASSUME from NetworkManager.
After ASSUME is dropped when starting NetworkManager it will take full
control of the interface, re-configuring it. The interface will be
managed from the start instead of assumed and then managed.
This will solve the situations where an interface is half-up and then a
restart happens. When NetworkManager is back it won't add the missing
addresses (which is what assume does) so the interface will fail during
the activation and will require a full activation.

(cherry picked from commit bf5927b978)
We already have a comparison of NMPlatformIPXAddress with the modes
"full" and "id". The former is needed to fully compare two addresses,
the latter as identity for tracking addresses in the cache.
In NetworkManager we also use the NMPlatformIP[46]Address structure to
track the addresses we want to configure. When we add them in kernel,
we will later see them in the platform cache. However, some fields
will be slightly different. For example, "addr_source" address will
always be "kernel", because that one is not a field we configure in
kernel. Also, the "n_ifa_flags" probably differ (getting "permanent"
and "secondary" flags).
Add a compare function that can ignore such differences.
Also add nm_platform_vtable_address for accessing the IPv4 and IPv6
methods generically (based on an "IS_IPv4" variable).
(cherry picked from commit ef1b60c061)
nmp_utils_lifetime_get() calculates the lifetime of addresses,
and it bases the result on a "now" timestamp.
If you have two addresses and calculate their expiry, then we want to
base it on top of the same "now" timestamp, meaning, we should
only call nm_utils_get_monotonic_timestamp_sec() once. This is also a
performance optimization. But much more importantly, when we make a
comparison at a certain moment, we need that all sides have the same
understanding of the current timestamp.
But nmp_utils_lifetime_get() does not always require the now timestamp.
And the caller doesn't know, whether it will need it (short of knowing
how nmp_utils_lifetime_get() is implemented). So, make the now parameter
an in/out argument. If we pass in an already valid now timestamp, use
that. Otherwise, fetch the current time and also return it.
