It is preferable to treat IPv4 and IPv6 in a similar manner.
This moves the places where we differ down the call-stack.
It also make it clearer how IPv6 behaves differently. I think this
is a bug, but leave it for now.

Delay ARP announcements for masters until the first interfaces gets
enslaved. There is no point in doing it before as the ARP packets
would be dropped in most cases; also, if the first slave is added when
we already started announcing, the MAC of the master is going to
change and so the remaining ARPs will have a wrong "sender mac
address" field.

Usually, for external/assume we skip calling act_stage2_config().
Add a flag that allows the device to indicate that it always wants
to be called. This is useful, if the device wants to do some initialization
also for external/assume cases.
Instead of performing a series of steps inside one check for
"!nm_device_sys_iface_state_is_external_or_assume (self)", perform
all steps individually (under the same check).
There is no change in behavior, but this is more logical to me.
We perform a series of steps, depending on condition. Each step
individually depends on a set of conditions, instead of checking
for a set of conditions and doing a series of independent steps.
WireGuard devices are (will be) regular NMDevice implementations,
but NMDnsManager should treat them like VPN.
For that, reuse the device's type and nm_device_get_route_metric_default().
For static functions inside a module, the compiler determines on its own
whether to inline the function.
Also, "inline" was used at some places that don't immediatly look like
candidates for inlining. It was most likely a copy&paste error.
NM_UTILS_LOOKUP_STR() uses alloca(). Partly to avoid the overhead of
malloc(), but more important because it's convenient to use. It does
not require to declare a varible to manage the lifetime of the heap
allocation.
It's quite safe, because the stack allocation is of a fixed size of only
a few bytes. Overall, I think the convenience that we get (resulting in
simpler code) outweighs the danger of stack allocation in this case. It's
still worth it.
However, as it uses alloca(), it still must not be used inside a (unbound)
loop and it is obviously a macro.
Rename the macros to have a _A() suffix. This should make the
peculiarities more apparent.
Platform had it's own scheme for reporting errors: NMPlatformError.
Before, NMPlatformError indicated success via zero, negative integer
values are numbers from <errno.h>, and positive integer values are
platform specific codes. This changes now according to nm-error:
success is still zero. Negative values indicate a failure, where the
numeric value is either from <errno.h> or one of our error codes.
The meaning of positive values depends on the functions. Most functions
can only report an error reason (negative) and success (zero). For such
functions, positive values should never be returned (but the caller
should anticipate them).
For some functions, positive values could mean additional information
(but still success). That depends.
This is also what systemd does, except that systemd only returns
(negative) integers from <errno.h>, while we merge our own error codes
into the range of <errno.h>.
The advantage is to get rid of one way how to signal errors. The other
advantage is, that these error codes are compatible with all other
nm-errno values. For example, previously negative values indicated error
codes from <errno.h>, but it did not entail error codes from netlink.
When the link is up and goes down link_changed_cb() schedules
device_link_changed() to be run later. If the function is dispatched
when the link is already up again, it does not detect that the link
was down.
Fix this by storing in the device state that we saw the link down so
that device_link_changed() can properly restore the IP configuration.

The check condition was inverted. Anyway, we should receive IPv4LL
events only when the method is LINK_LOCAL so turn this into an
assertion.

While nm_utils_inet*_ntop() accepts a %NULL buffer to fallback
to a static buffer, don't do that.
I find the possibility of using a static buffer here error prone
and something that should be avoided. There is of course the downside,
that in some cases it requires an additional line of code to allocate
the buffer on the stack as auto-variable.
- add nm_device_sysctl_ip_conf_get() and nm_device_sysctl_ip_conf_get_int_checked().
These functions don't use nm_device_get_ip_iface(), but resolve the
ifname from the platform cache.
- in general, resolve the name first with nm_device_get_ip_iface_from_platform().
We have a cached nm_device_get_ip_iface() property. However, the interface
name is not an identifier for a link because it can change at any time.
Also, we already have the (ip) ifindex as proper identifier for the
platform link. We shouldn't use two redundant identifiers to refer to
a link.
Clearly, sometimes we need an ifname. For example for ethtool ioctl or
sysctl path names. For ethtool API, we resolve the actual name as late
as possible, and for sysctl API we prefer NMP_SYSCTL_PATHID_NETDIR*().
However, that is not always possible, for example for /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/
sysctls.
Add a function that resolves the ifname by looking into the cache. This
of course is still racy, but it minimizes the time.
Also, we should less and less rely on the ifname, and resolve it as late
as possible. This patch adds a small wrapper going into that direction.
Now that we have other helper function on platfrom for setting
IP configuration sysctls, rename the function to set the hop-limit
to match the pattern.
These functions call platform's sysctl getter and setters.
Note that the called platform functions are called nm_platform_sysctl_get()
and nm_platform_sysctl_set(). Also, in this case they use the ip-conf path
via nm_utils_sysctl_ip_conf_path().
Also, next we will add API nm_platform_sysctl_ip_conf_get() and
nm_platform_sysctl_ip_conf_set(), which will be wrappers around
nm_platform_sysctl_get() and nm_platform_sysctl_set(), using the ip-conf
paths as well.
Rename the device functions, to be more similar to the existing and future
naming in platform.
For one, next we will drop setting rp_filter, hence there are no
more users of an IPv4 variant and nm_device_ipv4_sysctl_set() would
have to be dropped anyway.
However, instead of doing that, merge the IPv4 and IPv6 variant.
With this, the fallback to the default is now also supported for IPv6
(though unused).
Also, don't access nm_device_get_ip_iface(). The interface name might
not be right, we should only rely on the ifindex. Load the interface
name from platform cache instead.
The reasons to block autoconnection at settings level are not the same
as the ones to block autoconnection at device level.
E.g. if the SIM-PIN is wrong, you may want to block autoconnection
both at settings level (as the PIN configured in settings is wrong)
and at device level (so that no other setting is tried automatically).
For some other reasons, you may want to block autoconnection only at
setting level (e.g. wrong APN).
And for some other reasons you may want to block autoconnection at
device level only (e.g. SIM missing), so that the autoconnection
blocking is removed when the device goes away. This is especially
important with SIM hotplug events processed by ModemManager, as a
device without SIM will be removed from MM when a new SIM is
inserted, so that a completely new object is exposed in MM with the
newly detected SIM.

Refactor some code to use nm_streq() and NM_IN_STRSET() instead of
strcmp().
Note that nm_utils_get_ip_config_method() never returns %NULL (not even
with g_return*() assertion failures). nm_streq() is sufficent.
Recently, more and more code was refactored to use an addr_family
integer to distinguish between IPv4 and IPv6.
Refactor nm_utils_get_ip_config_method() and nm_device_get_effective_ip_config_method()
to do that too. If we use different identifiers, we need to translate from one to
another and its inconsistent. Also, accessing a GType is an unnecessary function call,
instead of a plain constant.
For P2P wifi we need to do DHCP if we are a peer or provide DHCP if we
are the group owner. This may only be decided while establishing the
connection, making the meaning of the AUTO method dynamic.
This adds a way for the device subclass to override the meaning of AUTO.
Patch cherry picked early from [1].

Don't configure the static number of VFs when the device is realized
because the device could still be unmanaged. Instead, do it when the
device becomes managed.
The timestamp of the host-id is the timestamp of the secret_key file.
Under normal circumstances, reading the timestamp should never fail,
and reading it multiple times should always yield the same result.
If we unexpectedly fail to read the timestamp from the file we want:
- log a warning, so that the user can find out what's wrong. But
do so only once.
- we don't want to handle errors or fail operation due to a missing
timestamp. Remember, it's not supposed to ever fail, and if it does,
just log a warning and proceed with a fake timestamp instead. In
that case something is wrong, but using a non-stable, fake timestamp
is the least of the problems here.
We already have a stable identifier (the host-id) which we can use to
generate a fake timestamp. Use it.
In case the user would replace the secret_key file, we also don't want
that accessing nm_utils_host_id_get_timestamp*() yields different
results. It's not implemented (nor necessary) to support reloading a
different timestamp. Hence, nm_utils_host_id_get_timestamp() should
memoize the value and ensure that it never changes.
Now that the secret-key is hashed with the machine-id, the name is
no longer best.
Sure, part of the key are persisted in /var/lib/NetworkManager/secret_key
file, which the user is well advised to keep secret.
But what nm_utils_secret_key_get() returns is first and foremost a binary
key that is per-host and used for hashing a per-host component. It's
really the "host-id". Compare that to what we also have, the
"machine-id" and the "boot-id".
Rename.
