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.
Use autoconf/automake variables for NetworkManager paths. Use
NetworkManager subdirectory where appropriate.
Files in /var/run (or /run on some distros) are moved into a separate
directory as is usual with other daemons. It makes the filesystem
more readable and file prefixing unnecessary.
/var/run/NetworkManager.pid -> /var/run/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.pid
/var/run/nm-dns-dnsmasq.pid -> /var/run/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.pid
/var/run/nm-dns-dnsmasq.conf -> /var/run/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.conf
The /var/run/NetworkManager directory is created at runtime, if it doesn't
exist.
Note: Path-based security policies like SELinux and AppArmor may need to
be adapted.
We had separate checks for glib-2.0, gobject-2.0, gmodule-2.0, and
gio-unix-2.0. It doesn't make sense to link a binary against all 4
because gio-unix-2.0 depends on glib-2.0 and gobject-2.0. Doing this
actually breaks things in unusual circumstances.
Generally, few bits of NM actually just use glib, and not gio. We
might as well coalesce those requirements together, even if it means
in some cases we "overlink". Additionally, I chose for now to fold
gmodule-2.0 in as well, even though many fewer programs need it. The
cost of overlinking is quite small.
The benefit of this is less repeated junk in Makefile.am, as well as
more centralized control over GLib. A followup patch will allow us to
set -DGLIB_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED in just one place, rather than having
to replicate it 4 times.
The NM configure is still suboptimal - for example, libpolkit-1
depends on gio-2.0, so really we should determine the compiler flags
all in one pass. But it doesn't matter too much for now.
This functionality is (mostly) obsoleted by the newer
GLIB_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED and GLIB_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED defines. With
this, your build doesn't all of a sudden blow up if we deprecate
something in GLib - you have to explicitly opt-in to the newer
version.
G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED does still apply for macros and things that can't
take __attribute__((deprecated)), but it's not really worth the pain
and cargo culting around just for that.
The ctype macros (eg, isalnum(), tolower()) are locale-dependent. Use
glib's ASCII-only versions instead.
Also, replace isascii() with g_ascii_isprint(), since isascii()
accepts control characters, which isn't what the code wanted in any of
the places where it was using it.
Finding out interface type from interface name string is fragile. It is easily
broken, e.g. by biosdevname changing interface names to em<n> or p<n>*p<n>.
Sadly, Gentoo network configuration scripts are rather stupid, using format:
variable_${interface|mac|essid|apmac}.
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/2007.0/handbook-x86.xml?full=1#book_part4_chap2
The entries interface|mac|essid|apmac are basically indistinguishable. It's not
possible to say whether 'p1p1' is an interface or SSID, for example.
Fix the current behaviour a bit by checking whether the string is an interface.
If so, and it is not a Wi-Fi one, set the connection type as wired. Else it is
regarded as wireless.
Ifnet currently does not deal with user agent service. Any connection
that comes with flagged secrets or is not system connection will be
ignored by the plugin. Thanks to David Narvaez for his great help on
this problem.
Always removing wep_tx_keyidx will cause wpa_supplicant.conf being
written even if nothing has been changed. Now it will be removed only
when wep is not used anymore.
We need to do the same thing as wpa_supplicant's own config file parser
and ignore '#' characters that occur between the first and last '"'
characters in a config file line.

nm_utils_hwaddr_ntoa() and nm_utils_hwaddr_aton() are like
ether_ntoa()/ether_aton(), but handle IPoIB too.
nm_utils_hwaddr_atoba() is like _aton() but returns a GByteArray,
since that's what's wanted in many places.
Also remove nm_ether_ntop() and replace uses of it with
nm_utils_hwaddr_ntoa().
When a connection changes on-disk, the in-memory copy of it may contain
transient secrets (agent-owned or not saved) that dont' get written out
to disk. When comparing the on-disk copy to the in-memory copy make sure
transient secrets are ignored so that we don't re-read the on-disk copy
needlessly.
