Add versioned NM_DEPRECATED_IN_* and NM_AVAILABLE_IN_* macros, and tag
new/deprecated functions accordingly. (All currently-deprecated
functions are assumed to have been deprecated in 0.9.10.)
Add NM_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED and NM_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED macros which
can be set to determine which versions will cause warnings.
With the current settings, external consumers of the
libnm-util/libnm-glib APIs will have MIN_REQUIRED and MAX_ALLOWED both
set to NM_VERSION_0_9_8 by default, meaning they will get warnings
about functions added in 0.9.10. NM internally sets
NM_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED to NM_VERSION_NEXT_STABLE to ensure that it is
always allowed to use all APIs.
Rather than explicitly passing around a UID and a flag saying whether
or not it's relevant.
(This also fixes a bug where the wrong UID was being recorded in
nm-settings-connection.c::auth_start(), which caused problems such as
agent-owned secrets not getting saved because of a perceived UID
mismatch.)
Make sure that all connections returned from NMSettings or created via
AddAndActivateConnection have an NMSettingIP4Config and an
NMSettingIP6Config, with non-NULL methods, and get rid of
now-unnecessary checks for those.
Also move the slaves-can't-have-IP-config checks into the
platform-independent code as well. This also gets rid of spurious
"ignoring IP4/IP6 configuration" warnings in ifcfg-rh when reading a
slave ifcfg file.
Partly based on a patch from Pavel.

Unfortunately, $(AM_CPPFLAGS) gets overridden by per-target _CPPFLAGS
variables, which $(INCLUDES) did not, so this requires some additional
changes.
In most places, I have just gotten rid of the per-target _CPPFLAGS
variables; in directories with a single target, the per-target
variable is unnecessary, and in directories with multiple targets, the
per-target variable is often undesirable, since it forces some files
to be compiled twice, even though there ends up being no difference
between the two files.
Add a "monitor-connection-files" config option, which can be set to
"false" to disable automatic reloading of connections on file change.
To go with this, add a new ReloadConnections method on
o.fd.NM.Settings that can be used to manually reload connections, and
add an nm-cli command to call it.
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.
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.
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.
Commit 217c5bf6ac fixed processing of unix
signals: signals are blocked in all threads and a dedicated thread handles the
signals using sigwait().
However, the commit forgot that child processes inherit signal mask as well.
That is why we have to unblock signals for child processes we spawn from NM, so
that they can receive signals.
Rather than generating enum classes by hand (and complaining in each
file that "this should really be standard"), use glib-mkenums.
Unfortunately, we need a very new version of glib-mkenums in order to
deal with NM's naming conventions and to fix a few other bugs, so just
import that into the source tree temporarily.
Also, to simplify the use of glib-mkenums, import Makefile.glib from
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/654395.
To avoid having to run glib-mkenums for every subdirectory of src/,
add a new "generated" directory, and put the generated enums files
there.
Finally, use Makefile.glib for marshallers too, and generate separate
ones for libnm-glib and NetworkManager.
