Use --enable-doc and --enable-tests instead of --with-docs and
--with-tests. This is consistent with other features and with
--enable-gtk-doc option. Support current variants as fallback.
Don't build tests unless --enable-tests is specified.
In NMDeviceWifi's real_complete_connection() the wifi setting
was looked up at the start of the function, but if no wifi
setting was sent by the caller, it would be NULL. The wifi
setting would later get added by nm_ap_utils_complete_connection(),
but after calling that the new wifi setting would not be looked
up again. Make that clearer by moving the wifi setting add code
to the wifi device's real_complete_connection() and not burying
it in some other function. This is more like what other device
types do.
The new wpa_supplicant D-Bus interface only passes back the 'level'
of the scanned BSS, which with nl80211 drivers is almost always dBm,
which NM handled fine. But WEXT-based drivers (ipw2x00, other older
ones, and some vendor drivers) use a mix of values for the 'level'
parameter, including the old WEXT 8-bit signed-value-in-unsigned-int
scheme. Handle that.
Alternatively, we could have the supplicant expose the 'flags' value
from its internal BSS list over the bus.
Given connection details, complete the connection as well as possible
using the given specific object and device, add it to system
settings, and activate it all in one method.
Handling of /etc/hosts is highly site- and admin- specific in
many more complex cases, and it's exceedingly hard and error-
prone for NetworkManager to handle all those cases. So remove
this functionality entirely. That's not a big loss, as it
turns out there's a much more elegant solution.
The only requirement is that the machine's hostname map back
to an IP address owned by the machine. That requirement can
be satisifed by nss-myhostname or even possibly the distro's
installer. If the user does not want nss-myhostname then it
can be uninstalled. Distros should use a "recommends" feature
in their packaging system so that the NetworkManager package
does *not* have a hard requirement on nss-myhostname. Thus
everyone is happy; things Just Work when nss-myhostname is
installed, but more advanced users can uninstall it and
customize /etc/hosts as they wish.
Another alternative is a dispatcher script that listents for
the 'hostname' event, and updates /etc/hosts according to the
administrator's preference.
Add support for Fedora's dhclient's built-in RFC3442 classless static
routes format.
Since the Fedora format uses the same name as the dhcpcd format, we
need to refactor a bunch of the code to ensure we can distinguish
between the types. Do this at runtime now by consolidating the
classless static routes parsing code into the DHCP Client base class
and rework the unit tests so that we can test all variations of the
classless static route parsing code at the same time.
This also fixes a bug with the dhcpcd classless static route
gateway handling that would return the wrong gateway address.
Many thanks to Jiri Popelka from Red Hat for the initial patch
and explanations.
Try to preserve custom hostnames (ie, anything not a localhost* variant,
the current hostname, or the previous hostname) when rewriting the
127.0.0.1/::1 localhost mapping lines.
If your hostname is 'foo.bar.baz' and your DNS server doesn't
actually reply to queries for 'foo.bar.baz' you can't just 'ping foo'
currently. While that may be somewhat of a misconfigured setup,
since we're already adding the domain part of the hostname to
/etc/resolv.conf we might as well add the short hostname to /etc/hosts
too so that ping works.
Otherwise glibc will count the localhost IPv6 (::1) mapping as
resolving to the IPv4 localhost mapping as well, so this:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1 foobar localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
192.168.1.2 fooar
causes a lookup of 'foobar' (or even just 'ping foobar') to resolve
to 127.0.0.1, even though the hostname is *not* listed on the
IPv4 localhost line. Apparently glibc just looks for the hostname
on any IPv4 or IPv6 localhost line.
We need to ensure that even if you don't have a routable IP address
for one of [IPv4, IPv6] that the hostname resolves to the localhost
address for that IP version, otherwise lots of stuff starts
breaking. But for the IP versions that you do have a routable IP
address, we want the hostname to map to that IP address too.
Instead of always mapping the current hostname to 127.0.0.1 or
whatever the user mapped it to manually, make sure the hostname
maps to the default device's IPv4 and IPv6 address if there's
a default device.
This helps out services that do a lookup on the machine hostname
to determine the IP address, which while a broken behavior (since
there are too many edge-cases) is pretty wide-spread and thus
we should support it.
If the hostname was changed while NM wasn't running, and thus /etc/hosts
was out of sync with the new hostname, NM wouldn't make sure that
the new hostname was mapped in /etc/hosts. Make sure that happens
and add a bunch of testcases for /etc/hosts rewriting.
Since the same interface could be used for both DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 we
can't just use 'iface' for tracking DHCP client lease changes. Instead
use a generated client ID, and track DHCP events based on the client's
PID instead of interface name.
0.7 requires dbus 1.1 or greater (for system bus activation), so make that
explicit, and remove compat code for D-Bus 0.6 and earlier. Consolidate
the various glib pkgconfig checks into one, since most anything will require
gthread, glib, and gobject anyway. Fixup the docs makefile to be more
automake-compatible and let 'make clean' actually work correctly when
docs are built.
Based on patches by Johan Bilien <jobi@via.ecp.fr>,
nick loeve <trickie@gmail.com>, and Roy Marples <roy@marples.name>
with significant changes for dhclient formatting and test cases.
Note that dhclient needs help before it can actually parse
classless static routes by adding the following to the
dhclient.conf file:
option rfc3442-classless-static-routes code 121 = array of unsigned integer 8;
