Default to 'not allowed', distros that need backwards compatibility
can flip this to 'yes' if they need to. At this point, only power
management scripts should call these functions.
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.
Since forever we've used sleep/wake as the way to implement
Networking Enabled. When the state file was introduced to make the
networking and wifi states persistent, we ran into a bug where
a failed suspend (like if the machine ran out of power while
suspended) would result in networking being disabled on reboot
since suspend/resume used the same knob as enable/disable.
This patch adds a distinct call for enable/disable networking
which changes the state file, while sleep/wake no longer change
the state file.
All IPv6 enabled sites are expected to provide router advertisement
support apparently. If standalone DHCP is really used in the wild
then we can clearly re-enable it later.
Pad the DNS server expiry somewhat to give a bit of slack in cases
where one RA gets lost or something (which can happen on unreliable
links like wifi where certain types of frames are not retransmitted).
GIO will apparently normally try to use the remote VFS implemenation
on the session bus. But NM (as a root service) shouldn't ever be
trying to talk to anything on the session bus. Squash that.
The kernel apparently caches the value and will send Managed/Other flags
in the newlink message even if the router is no longer reachable and
and RA hasn't been received for a while. So we need to make sure we
check for IF_RA_RCVD before paying attention to Managed/Other.
Since a link-local address should pretty much always be
assigned to an active interface, avoid flushing the routes
that allow link-local communication to work.
Use the interfaces kernel index when we can to avoid unecessary
iface->index lookups; and let callers figure out which address
family they really want to flush.
Previously the input would simply be printed, but if you're not
changing either the level or domains (ie sending "") then the
unchanged logging domains wouldn't be printed, only "".
As long as at least one IP config method completes, and as long as
methods that the user required to complete do complete, allow the
connection to complete.
When the client exits it may take a short amount of time for the
dhclient hook script to deliver the options to NetworkManager; so
we need to keep the client object around a bit (so we know what
NMDHCPClient the options getting delivered are for). If we don't,
the DHCPManager will dispose of the DHCPClient object and then
when the options come in, it can't match up the PID from the
options with the PID of an existing NMDHCPClient. So put the
clients on a removal timer that keeps them around for a bit before
we let the manager dispose of them.
Since we're keeping the PID around too instead of zeroing it when
the client exits (for the reason above), track whether the client
is really dead yet so we don't indiscriminately kill a random
process that happens to re-use the PID.
