We'll soon not only do the router discovery, but announce ourselves as a
reouter. "Neighbor discovery" sounds to be a more appropriate name for
the class than "Router discovery".
For example for tun devices we get a lot of
(tun7): hw-addr: failed reading current MAC address
warnings. Just be silent about it. We log when something
changes, we don't need to log when we fail to obtain
a MAC address.
Thereby, refactor nm_device_update_hw_address() to return early.
The unmanaged flags PLATFORM_INIT indicates whether UDEV is done
initializing the device. We should not handle IP config changes
before that pointer.
This avoids codepaths that require the permanent MAC address of the
device. We should not freeze the permanent MAC address before
UDEV initialized the device, for two reasons:
- getting the permanent MAC address using ethtool is racy as
UDEV might still rename the interface.
- freezing a fake permanent MAC address should only happen after
UDEV is done configuring the MAC address of software devices.

Before the link is initialized, that is before UDEV completed
initializing the device, we should not evaluate the user-settings
unmanaged flags.
The reason is, that evaluating it likely involves looking at the
permanent MAC address, which might use the wrong fake MAC address
(before UDEV set the right one). Also, it might use the wrong ifname
to lookup the permanent MAC address via ethtool.
The permanent MAC address of an NMDevice shall not change as
long as the device is realized. That is, we read it only once
and don't change it afterwards.
There are two issues that this commit tries to mitigate:
(1) users are advised to use UDEV to rename interfaces. As we lookup
the permenent MAC address using ethtool (which uses the interface
name), there is a race where we could read the permanent MAC
address using the wrong interface name. We should wait until
UDEV finished initializing the device and until the interface
name is stable (see rh#1388286).
This commit still cannot avoid the race of ethtool entirely. It only
tries to avoid ethtool until UDEV has done its work. That is, until we
expect the interface name no longer to change.
(2) some device types, don't have a permanent MAC address so we fall
back to use the currently set address (fake). Again, users are advised
to use UDEV to configure the MAC addresses on such software devices.
Thus, we should not get the fake MAC address until UDEV initialized
the device.
This patch actually doesn't solve the problem at all yet.
The reason is that a regular caller of nm_device_get_permanent_hw_address() can
not afford to wait until UDEV settled. Thus, any user who requests the
permanent MAC address before the link is initialized, runs into the
problems above.
In a next step, we shall revisit such calls to nm_device_get_permanent_hw_address()
and delay them until the link is initialized.
We repeatedly call nm_device_update_hw_address() to reset the cached
MAC address of the device. However, we don't allow changing the address
length once it is set.
Multiple entities (initial, current and permanent MAC address) are all
checked to have the same address length. Changing the length would be a
very strange thing (and probably indicate a bug somewhere else).
Just don't allow that.
On devices that have no real permanent hardware address (as returned
by ethtool), we take the current MAC address of the device.
Currently, NM is a bit flaky about whether to accept such fake permanent
addresses for settings like keyfile.unmanaged-devices or the per-
connection property ethernet.mac-address. Probably, we should allow
using fake addresses there in general.
However, that leads to problems because NetworkManager itself changes
the current MAC address of such devices. For example when
configuing
keyfile.unmanaged-device=22:33:44:55:66:77
and later activating a connection with
ethernet.cloned-mac-address=22:33:44:55:66:77
we have a strange situation after restart and the device becomes
unmanaged.
We are going to avoid that, by remembering the fake permanent address
in the device state file.
This only matters:
- for devices that don't have a real permanent address (veth)
- if the user or NetworkManager itself changed the MAC address
of the device
- after a restart of NetworkManager, without reboot. A reboot
clears the device state for /var/run/NetworkManager.
_nm_utils_hwaddr_length() did a validation of the string
and returned the length of the address. In all cases where
we were interested in that, we also either want to validate
the address, get the address in binary form, or canonicalize
the address.
We can avoid these duplicate checks, by using _nm_utils_hwaddr_aton()
which both does the parsing and returning the length.
We only needed proper glib enum types for having properties
and signal arguments. These got all converted to plain int,
so no longer generate such an enum type.
Had to rename "nm-enum-types.h" because it works badly with
"libnm/nm-enum-types.h". Maybe I could fix that differently,
but duplicate names is anyway error prone.
Note that "nm-core-enum-types.h" is already taken too, so
"nm-src-enum-types.h" it is.
The default wired connection is already generated allowing the use of a fake
address, but for the state file and the device matching specs only non-fake
addresses are used. Let's allow fake addresses consistently, so that default
wired connections work properly in containers (where the veth address is
considered fake) as well.
Also, it would really be a better idea to use ifnames everywhere instead, but
that would change the format of the state file.
The names NMPacRunnerManager, nm_pac_runner_manager were inconsistent
with NM_PACRUNNER_MANAGER and nm-pacrunner-manager.[hc]. They should
be consistent.
It seems pacrunner project calls itself "PACrunner" or just "pacrunner",
so prefer the spelling with lower-case 'r'.
As the type is called NMPacRunnerManager, the proper name for the
functions is nm_pac_runner_manager*(). Alternatively, it the type
should be NMPacrunnerManager.
nm_pacrunner_manager_send() would only fail if passed in a NULL proxy_config.
And then it would log a <info> message without details about what failed.
Just don't do that.
src: Fixes in nm-device.c and nm-vpn-connection.c to update PacRunner
at the right place and moment. When a device goes up PacRunner is
configured with the Device IPxConfigs and Proxy Config. When it goes
down the same configuration is removed from PacRunner.
ifcfg-rh: Fixed to read and write proxy settings to the ifcfg network
scripts.
- use _NM_GET_PRIVATE() and _NM_GET_PRIVATE_PTR() everywhere.
- reorder statements, to have GObject related functions (init, dispose,
constructed) at the bottom of each file and in a consistent order w.r.t.
each other.
- unify whitespaces in signal and properties declarations.
- use NM_GOBJECT_PROPERTIES_DEFINE() and _notify()
- drop unused signal slots in class structures
- drop unused header files for device factories
Our internal copy of systemd should not be in the search path.
Instead, let users only
#include "systemd/nm-sd.h"
which then includes everything from systemd that we need.
We want to avoid to accidentally include anything from our
systemd-copy. Any user of that should only include "nm-sd.h",
which then includes everything that is needed further.
For example, "src/devices/wwan/nm-modem-manager.c" has
#include <systemd/nm-daemon.h>
which in turn includes
#include "_sd-common.h"
This works all correctly before, because #include "" will first
look in the directory where sd-daemon.h is. However, our mixing of
external systemd library and internal copy is rather dangerous.
Try to avoid it further by keeping the include paths clean.
NMPolicy:auto_activate_device() would wrongly not free the
specific_object, although it is documented as transfer-full.
The only implementation of can_auto_connect() that returned
a specific-object is NMDeviceWifi:can_auto_connect(). So, there
wasn't any actual bug or memory leak.

No need for the setter/getter of this property.
Immutable properties are so much nicer. Remove the setter and
ensure that the nm_plugin_missing property is only set during
object construction.
Unify the two check_ip_done() and check_ip_failed() functions into a
single one to have all the state transition logic in the same place.
This also fixes a regression introduced by commit 553717bb1c
("device: don't set ip4_state=IP_FAIL for ipv4.method=disabled").
After that commit the device immediately proceeded to IP_CHECK when
there was a disabled/ignore method. Now we wait for the termination of
the other method, like it used to be.

Some drivers (brcmfmac) don't change the MAC address right away.
NetworkManager works around that by waiting synchronously until
the address changes (commit 1a85103765).
wpa_supplicant on the other hand, only re-reads the MAC address
when changing state from DISABLED to ENABLED, which happens when
the interface comes up.
That is a bug in wpa_supplicant and the driver, but we can work-around by
waiting until the MAC address actually changed before setting the interface
IFF_UP. Also note, that there is still a race in wpa_supplicant which might
miss a change to DISABLED state altogether.

Instead of letting the sub-class check the "enabled" state, let
it be handled by nm_device_bring_up().
Note that nm_device_get_enabled() only has two implementations:
NMDeviceModem:bring_up() and NMDeviceWifi:bring_up().
Long ago before commit 1b49f94, NetworkManager did not touch the
MAC address at all. Since 0.8.2 NetworkManager would modify the
MAC address, and eventually it would reset the permanent MAC address
of the device.
This prevents a user from externally setting the MAC address via tools
like macchanger and rely on NetworkManager not to reset it to the
permanent MAC address. This is considered a security regression in
bgo#708820.
This only changed with commit 9a354cd and 1.4.0. Since then it is possible
to configure "cloned-mac-address=preserve", which instead uses the "initial"
MAC address when the device activates.
That also changed that the "initial" MAC address is the address which was
externally configured on the device as last. In other words, the
"initial" MAC address is picked up from external changes, unless it
was NetworkManager itself who configured the address when activating a
connection.
However, in absence of an explicit configuration the default for
"cloned-mac-address" is still "permanent". Meaning, the user has to
explicitly configure that NetworkManager should not touch the MAC address.
It makes sense to change the upstream default to "preserve". Although this
is a change in behavior since 0.8.2, it seems a better default.
This change has the drastic effect that all the existing connections
out there with "cloned-mac-address=$(nil)" change behavior after upgrade.
I think most users won't notice, because their devices have the permanent
address set by default anyway. I would think that there are few users
who intentionally configured "cloned-mac-address=" to have NetworkManager
restore the permanent address.

... and don't set ip6_state=IP_FAIL for ipv6.method=ignore.
The disabled state is like having an empty NMIP4Config object.
It should not result in %IP_FAIL state. Instead, we just want
to proceed and commit an empty NMIP4Config instance.
This was introduced by commit 0652d9c596,
which I think was wrong.
Likewise, for ipv6.method=ignore we also don't want to mark the
IP state as failed. Instead, we want to proceed and set IP_DONE
right away -- without commiting anything, which is a difference
to the IPv4 case.
This is especially important, because an ip4_state/ip6_state of IP_FAIL
causes nm_device_can_assume_active_connection() to return FALSE, which
means we unmanage devices at shutdown. Ony might say that it doesn't
matter so much for a device without IP configuration, but imagine a
bond with VLANs on top that only has Layer 2 configuration. This will
bring down the entire stack.
With this change, devices with IP methods disabled/ignore stay up on
exit of NetworkManager (rh#1371126). Of course, that means on restart
software devices stay unamanged due to external-down (because since
commit e1edcda, devices without IP address are also external-down).
So, this really just fixes one scenario, breaking another one.
This should be fixed with bgo#746440 by not assuming connections.
