This is the same we already did for nm-platform addresses in commit
68c3e1153c. It will help to avoid various
issues and is also a step towards support for route lifetimes.
The nm_platform_ip[46]_address_sync() functions no longer use
nm_platform_ip[46]_address_exists() to avoid adding already
existing addresses. That means nm_platform_ip[46]_address_add()
is now called for *all* commited addresses and the lifetimes
are thus always updated.
Because of that, nm_platform_ip[46]_address_add() had to be modified to
accept existing addresses and update their lifetimes when appropriate.

This (together with a patch adding src/platform/Makefile.am) allows for
a workflow where your working directory is src/platform and all tests
and testing tools are rebuilt with your src/platform modifications.
With the move of udev logic into the Linux platform class, the
link-added signals are asynchronous, that is they are not emitted
during the call to nm_platform_*_add(), but after that call has
returned. The Fake implementation still emitted them synchronously,
which broke the testcases. Convert the Fake implementation to emit
link-added signals asynchronously and update the testcases to handle
this.
Since the platform started using udev for link-added signals, we need
to run the glib mainloop to wait for the udev signals to come in,
instead of expecting them to be emitted immediately.
Add a "parent" field to NMPlatformLink, giving the parent device
ifindex for devices that have a parent.
Make nm_platform_link_get_all() sort the links before returning them,
so that masters appear after all of their slaves, and parent devices
appear before their children.
Remove the second call to nm_platform_query_devices() from NMManager
since it is now guaranteed that an NMDeviceVLAN's parent NMDevice will
have been created before the NMDeviceVLAN.
Merge the net-subsystem-monitoring functionality of NMUdevManager into
NMLinuxPlatform (and kill NMUdevManager). NMLinuxPlatform now only
emits link-added signals after udev processes the device, and uses
udev attributes to further identify the device. NMManager now
identifies devices solely based on the NMLinkType provided by the
platform.
This requires a very recent kernel to even compile, and the kernel
code is still rapidly changing (eg, adding IPv6 support). So take it
out for now, until it stabilizes.
This reverts commit 7f0f04d106.
Although having different parts of NM in different subdirectories
keeps the source tree neat, it has made the build messy, particularly
because of cross-dependencies between the subdirs.
Reorganize to build all of the pieces of the NetworkManager binary
from src/Makefile, and only use recursive make for test programs,
helper binaries, and plugins.
As part of this, get rid of all the per-directory convenience
libraries, and switch to building a single top-level
libNetworkManager.la, containing everything except main.c, which all
of the test programs can then link against.
Add a new libnm-glib method to get the type description for a device,
and use it in nmcli. For most types, the type description is based on
the class name, but for NMDeviceGeneric, it comes from the
:type-description property.
This is a simple testing tool. Even though it includes a basic help (just run
it without arguments), the command syntax often requires looking into the
code. Use it whenever you want to test specific behavior of nm-platform.
For regular tests, please amend the automatic testsuite instead.
On Linux, the gateway attribute is not a key attribute and therefore is
not necessary for functions that just need to identify a route. This may
be revisited when porting to other platforms but for now I want to keep
things simple.
"g_assert_cmpint (x, ==, y)" is nicer than "g_assert (x == y)",
because if it fails, it shows you the values of x and y in the assert
message. Likewise g_assert_cmpstr().
The "ifindex > 0" checks still just use g_assert(), since we don't
need to distinguish specific negative values there.
In some cases, callers don't need to distinguish, eg,
ip4-address-added from ip6-address-added, but just need to know what
device the event occurred on. Make this simpler by including the
ifindex as a separate explicit argument, allowing callers to just
ignore the struct part.
Which it does whenever the 'bonding' module gets loaded no matter
what name the user wants to give the new bond interface.
Ported nm-system fix from commit 7cc95d8, using system() to avoid
dependency on NM libs.
Automatic test included. You have to run 'rmmod bonding' before testing
to ensure that the module is not already inserted. Second run without
rmmod always succeeds.
