Setting
wifi.cloned-mac-address="stable-ssid"
should generate the same SSID as
connection.stable-id="${NETWORK_SSID}"
wifi.cloned-mac-address="stable"
For that to work correctly, we need to post-process the generated stable
id.
Fixes: d210923c0f ('wifi: add "wifi.cloned-mac-address=stable-ssid"')
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/merge_requests/1813
Add a new "stable-ssid" mode that generates the MAC address based on the
Wi-Fi's SSID.
Note that this gives the same MAC address as setting
connection.stable-id="${NETWORK_SSID}"
wifi.cloned-mac-address="stable"
The difference is that changing the stable ID of a profile also affects
"ipv6.addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy" and other settings.
For Wi-Fi profiles, this will encode the SSID in the stable-id.
For other profiles, this encodes the connection UUID (but the SSID and
the UUID will always result in distinct stable IDs).
Also escape the SSID, so that the generated stable-id is always valid
UTF-8.
Parse the access point announced bandwidth in MHz. This is considering
both HT and VHT. Please notice that for VHT 80+80 MHz we are representing it
as 160 MHz.
Struct allow named arguments, which seems easier to maintain instead of
a function with many arguments. Also, adding a new parameter does not
require changes to most of the callers.
The real advantage of this is that we encode all the search parameters
in one argument. And we can add that argument to
_match_section_infos_lookup(), alongside lookup by NMDevice or
NMPlatformLink.
All callers eventually want a boolean instead of a NMMatchSpecMatchType.
I think the NMMatchSpecMatchType enum still has value at the lower
layers, where the enum values are clearer (when reading the code). So
don't drop NMMatchSpecMatchType entirely.
However, let's add nm_match_spec_match_type_to_bool() to convert the
match-type to a boolean to avoid duplicating the code.
This is the version shipped in Fedora 38. As Fedora 38 is now out, the
core developers switch to it. Our gitlab-ci will also use that as base
image for the check-{patch.tree} tests and to generate the pages. There
is a need that everybody agrees on which clang-format version to use,
and that version should be the one of the currently used Fedora release.
Also update the used Fedora image in "contrib/scripts/nm-code-format-container.sh"
script.
The gitlab-ci still needs update in the following commit. This change
in isolation will break the "check-tree" test.
- name things related to `in_addr_t`, `struct in6_addr`, `NMIPAddr` as
`nm_ip4_addr_*()`, `nm_ip6_addr_*()`, `nm_ip_addr_*()`, respectively.
- we have a wrapper `nm_inet_ntop()` for `inet_ntop()`. This name
of our wrapper is chosen to be familiar with the libc underlying
function. With this, also name functions that are about string
representations of addresses `nm_inet_*()`, `nm_inet4_*()`,
`nm_inet6_*()`. For example, `nm_inet_parse_str()`,
`nm_inet_is_normalized()`.

There is a hierarchy of how files include each other. "main-utils.h"
is pretty much at the bottom (one above "main.c"), in the sense that
it only includes other headers, but is not included itself (aside
"main.c").
Move the utils function to a place where its accessible from everywhere
and rename.
We use clang-format for automatic formatting of our source files.
Since clang-format is actively maintained software, the actual
formatting depends on the used version of clang-format. That is
unfortunate and painful, but really unavoidable unless clang-format
would be strictly bug-compatible.
So the version that we must use is from the current Fedora release, which
is also tested by our gitlab-ci. Previously, we were using Fedora 34 with
clang-tools-extra-12.0.1-1.fc34.x86_64.
As Fedora 35 comes along, we need to update our formatting as Fedora 35
comes with version "13.0.0~rc1-1.fc35".
An alternative would be to freeze on version 12, but that has different
problems (like, it's cumbersome to rebuild clang 12 on Fedora 35 and it
would be cumbersome for our developers which are on Fedora 35 to use a
clang that they cannot easily install).
The (differently painful) solution is to reformat from time to time, as we
switch to a new Fedora (and thus clang) version.
Usually we would expect that such a reformatting brings minor changes.
But this time, the changes are huge. That is mentioned in the release
notes [1] as
Makes PointerAligment: Right working with AlignConsecutiveDeclarations. (Fixes https://llvm.org/PR27353)
[1] https://releases.llvm.org/13.0.0/tools/clang/docs/ReleaseNotes.html#clang-format
This helper class is supposed to encapsulate most logic about
configuring IPv6 link local addresses and exposes a simpler API in order
to simplify NMDevice. Currently this logic is spread out in NMDevice.
Also, NML3IPv6LL directly uses NML3Cfg, thereby freeing NMDevice to care
about that too much.
For several reasons, NML3IPv6LL works different than NML3IPv4LL.
For one, with IPv6 we need to configure the address in kernel, which does
DAD for us. So, NML3IPv6LL will tell NML3Cfg to configure those
addresses that it wants to probe. For IPv4, it only tells NML3Cfg to do
ACD, without configuring anything yet. That is left to the caller.
The host-id gets read from /var/lib/NetworkManager/secret_key, and cached in
a global variable. Other parts of the code can get the host ID using a
singleton function.
For testing, we need to inject a different host-id. Add two push/pop
functions for that.
Unlike nm_utils_host_id_get(), these functions are not thread-safe (nor
is it possible to make them thread-safe in a reasonable manner).
It's great to have functions that cannot fail, because it allows to
skip any error handling.
_set_stable_privacy() as it was could not fail, so the only reason why
nm_utils_ipv6_addr_set_stable_privacy() could fail is because the DAD
counter exhausted.
Also, it will be useful to have a function that does not do the counter
check, where the caller wants to handle that differently.
Rename some functions, and make the core nm_utils_ipv6_addr_set_stable_privacy()
not failable.
Add function nm_utils_connection_match_spec_list() to check whether a
connection matches a spec list. Also document the supported syntax in
the man page.
Our cast macros (like NM_AUTH_SUBJECT()) are plain C pointer casts,
unless when building with more asserts enabled.
Still, they are unnecessary and even their ability to check the type
(with more asserts) is not needed, because we must trust glib's
g_object_new() to return reasonable objects. That is a basic
requirement, that we don't need to assert against.
Also, in the majority of cases we don't do this either.
Currently "src/" mostly contains the source code of the daemon.
I say mostly, because that is not true, there are also the device,
settings, wwan, ppp plugins, the initrd generator, the pppd and dhcp
helper, and probably more.
Also we have source code under libnm-core/, libnm/, clients/, and
shared/ directories. That is all confusing.
We should have one "src" directory, that contains subdirectories. Those
subdirectories should contain individual parts (libraries or
applications), that possibly have dependencies on other subdirectories.
There should be a flat hierarchy of directories under src/, which
contains individual modules.
As the name "src/" is already taken, that prevents any sensible
restructuring of the code.
As a first step, move "src/" to "src/core/". This gives space to
reorganize the code better by moving individual components into "src/".
For inspiration, look at systemd's "src/" directory.
