The warning "-Wcast-align=strict" seems useful and will be enabled
next. Fix places that currently cause the warning by using the
new macro NM_CAST_ALIGN(). This macro also nm_assert()s that the alignment
is correct.
This is the version shipped in Fedora 37. As Fedora 37 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. The change
in isolation will break the "check-tree" test.
- nm_setting_ip_config_add_dns() and nm_setting_ip_config_remove_dns_by_value()
used to assert that the provided input is valid. That is not
documented and highly problematic.
Our parsing code for keyfile, ifcfg-rh and GVariant rightly just call
add. Likewise, nmcli. We cannot reasonably expect them to pre-validate
the input. Why would we anyway?
This is wrong in particular because we usually want the user to be
able to construct invalid settings. That is often necessary, because
whether a value is valid depends on other values. So in general, we
can only validate when all properties are set. We have
nm_connection_verify() for that, and asserting/validating during add
is very wrong. Note that "add" still filters out duplicates, which
may be an inconsistency, but well.
Also, the user could set any bogus value via the NM_SETTING_IP_CONFIG_DNS
property. Those should be allowed to be removed, and the same values
should be allowed to be added via the add method.
- add() does a normalization, presumably so that the values look nice.
Do the same normalization also when using the NM_SETTING_IP_CONFIG_DNS
property setter.
- previously, the setter could also set unnormalized values. As
nm_setting_ip_config_remove_dns_by_value() looked for the normalized
value, you couldn't remove such values anymore. That is fixed now,
by letting the property setter do the same normalization.
- don't allocate a GPtrArray unless we need it. No need for the extra
allocation.
- in the property setter, first set the new value before destroying the
previous GPtrArray. It might not be possible, but it's not clear to me
whether the strv argument from the GValue is always deep-copied or
whether it could contain strings to the DNS property itself.
When you call
nm_uuid_generate_from_strings_strv(uuid_type, type_arg, v1, v2);
you'd probably expect that both values are honored in some way.
However, if v1 happened to be NULL, then previously v2 would be ignored.
Extend nm_uuid_generate_from_strings() to accept also NULL values and
pass on the length. Currently, there are no users of nm_uuid_generate_from_strings(),
so nobody is affected by this change.
Also extend nm_uuid_generate_from_strings_strv() to take a length
argument. It still accepts "-1" to take the input strv as a NULL
terminated array.
If a positive length is provided to nm_uuid_generate_from_strings_strv(),
it hashes the same UUID as the respective NULL terminated array. But of
course only, if there is no NULL inside the array. If there are any
NULLs, a distinct UUID gets generated.
NMConnection is an interface, implemented by NMSimpleConnection and
NMRemoteConnection.
For the most part, an NMConnection is only the content of the profile
(the settings). The "path" of the connection refers to the D-Bus path,
and wouldn't really make sense of the NMConnection interface or the
NMSimpleConnection type.
As such, the daemon (which only uses NMConnection and
NMSimpleConnection) never sets the path. Only libnm does.
NMClient uses NMRefString extensively for the D-Bus interface and the
path is already internalized. Take advantage of that. It is very likely,
that we are able to share the path instance in libnm at which point it
makes sense to use NMRefString.
Also, during nm_simple_connection_new_clone(), we can just take another
reference instead of cloning the string.
For new uses of nm_uuid_generate_from_strings() we should generate version5
UUIDs and we should use unique namespace UUID arguments.
The namespace UUID was so far replaced by always passing a special prefix
as first string. It seems nicer to use a namespace instead.
Version3 UUIDs should not be used for new applications.
Hence, nm_uuid_generate_from_strings_v3() is no longer a desirable way to
generate UUIDs, so drop the wrapper.
nm_uuid_generate_from_strings() accepts a uuid_type and type_arg
parameter, so that we can use it to generate version 5 UUIDs.
This is a more flexible variant of nm_uuid_generate_from_strings_v3(),
which will be used to replace it. With the right parameters, the new
function behaves the same as nm_uuid_generate_from_strings_v3().
nm_uuid_generate_from_strings() uses variant3 UUIDs based on MD5.
We shouldn't use that in the future.
We will add a replacement, so rename this function so that the "good"
name is free again. Of course, code that uses this function currently
relies on that the behavior doesn't change. We cannot just drop it
entirely, but will replace it by something that gives the same result.
Rename.
Have "len" before "elem_size". That is consistent with g_qsort_with_data()
and bsearch(), and is also what I would expect.
Note that the previous commit just renamed the function. If a user
of the new, changed API gets backported to an older branch, we will
get a compilation error and note that the arguments need to be adjusted.
The "nm_utils_" prefix is just too verbose. Drop it.
Also, Posix has a bsearch function. As this function
is similar, rename it.
Note that currently the arguments are provided in differnt
order from bsearch(). That will be partly addressed next.
That is the main reason for the rename. The next commit
will swap the arguments, so do a rename first to get a compilation
error when backporting a patch that uses the changed API.
nm_utils_enum_to_str() can print flags, that is, combinations of
powers of two integers.
It also supports nicks, for certain flags.
When we have a nick for value zero, then that requires special
handling. Otherwise, that zero nick will always show up in the
string representation, although, it should only be used if the
enum value is exactly zero.
- 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()`.

The strength of CList is of course to use it as a stack of queue,
and only append/remove from the front/tail.
However, since this is an intrusive list, it can also be useful to
just use it to track elements, and -- when necessary -- sort them
via c_list_sort().
If we have a sorted list, we might want to insert a new element
honoring the sort order. This function achieves that.
We have two variants of the function: nm_utils_ip4_netmask_to_prefix()
and _nm_utils_ip4_netmask_to_prefix(). The former only exists because it
is public API in libnm. Internally, only use the latter.
The property wait-activation-delay will delay the activation of an
interface the specified amount of milliseconds. Please notice that it
could be delayed some milliseconds more due to other events in
NetworkManager.
This could be used in multiple scenarios where the user needs to define
an arbitrary delay e.g LACP bond configure where the LACP negotiation
takes a few seconds and traffic is not allowed, so they would like to
use nm-online and a setting configured with this new property to wait
some seconds. Therefore, when nm-online is finished, LACP bond should be
ready to receive traffic.
The delay will happen right before the device is ready to be activated.

Introduction of a new setting ipv4.link-local, which enables
link-local IP addresses concurrently with other IP address assignment
implementations such as dhcp or manually.
No way is implemented to obtain a link-local address as a fallback when
dhcp does not respond (as dhcpd does, for example). This could be be
added later.
To maintain backward compatibility with ipv4.method ipv4.link-local has
lower priority than ipv4.method. This results in:
* method=link-local overrules link-local=disabled
* method=disabled overrules link-local=enabled
Furthermore, link-local=auto means that method defines whether
link-local is enabled or disabled:
* method=link-local --> link-local=enabled
* else --> link-local=disabled
The upside is, that this implementation requires no normalization.
Normalization is confusing to implement, because to get it really
right, we probably should support normalizing link-local based on
method, but also vice versa. And since the method affects how other
properties validate/normalize, it's hard to normalize that one, so that
the result makes sense. Normalization is also often not great to the
user, because it basically means to modify the profile based on other
settings.
The downside is that the auto flag becomes API and exists because
we need backward compatibility with ipv4.method.
We would never add this flag, if we would redesign "ipv4.method"
(by replacing by per-method-specific settings).
Defining a default setting for ipv4.link-local in the global
configuration is also supported.
The default setting for the new property can be "default", since old
users upgrading to a new version that supports ipv4.link-local will not
have configured the global default in NetworkManager.conf. Therefore,
they will always use the expected "auto" default unless they change
their configuration.

Make use of direct strv property in some cases. It doesn't work for
other cases yet, because they are implemented differently, and porting
them is more effort and needs to be done one by one.
The goal is to have a unified, standard implementation for our
properties. One that requires a minimal amount of property-specific
code. For strv properties, that is a bit more cumbersome, because
usually there are multiple C accessor functions. Still, make an effort
to have a "direct" strv property.
What this also gives, is that we no longer need to clone the strv array
for various operations. We know how to access the data, and can do it
directly without g_object_get()/g_object_set().
libnm's data structures are commonly not thread safe (like
NMConnection). However, it must be possible that all operations can
operate on *different* data in a thread safe manner. That means, we need
to take care about our global variables.
nm_utils_ssid_to_utf8() uses a list of encodings, which gets cached.
- replace the GHashTables with a static list. Since it doesn't cost
anything, make the list sorted and look it up via binary search.
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
Give a consistent name.
A bit odd are now the names nm_g_bytes_hash() and nm_g_bytes_equal()
as they go together with nm_pg_bytes_hash()/nm_pg_bytes_equal().
But here the problem is more with the naming of "nm_p*_{equal,hash}()"
functions, which probably should be renamed to "nm_*_ptr_{equal,hash}()".
Naming is important, because the name of a thing should give you a good
idea what it does. Also, to find a thing, it needs a good name in the
first place. But naming is also hard.
Historically, some strv helper API was named as nm_utils_strv_*(),
and some API had a leading underscore (as it is internal API).
This was all inconsistent. Do some renaming and try to unify things.
We get rid of the leading underscore if this is just a regular
(internal) helper. But not for example from _nm_strv_find_first(),
because that is the implementation of nm_strv_find_first().
- _nm_utils_strv_cleanup() -> nm_strv_cleanup()
- _nm_utils_strv_cleanup_const() -> nm_strv_cleanup_const()
- _nm_utils_strv_cmp_n() -> _nm_strv_cmp_n()
- _nm_utils_strv_dup() -> _nm_strv_dup()
- _nm_utils_strv_dup_packed() -> _nm_strv_dup_packed()
- _nm_utils_strv_find_first() -> _nm_strv_find_first()
- _nm_utils_strv_sort() -> _nm_strv_sort()
- _nm_utils_strv_to_ptrarray() -> nm_strv_to_ptrarray()
- _nm_utils_strv_to_slist() -> nm_strv_to_gslist()
- nm_utils_strv_cmp_n() -> nm_strv_cmp_n()
- nm_utils_strv_dup() -> nm_strv_dup()
- nm_utils_strv_dup_packed() -> nm_strv_dup_packed()
- nm_utils_strv_dup_shallow_maybe_a() -> nm_strv_dup_shallow_maybe_a()
- nm_utils_strv_equal() -> nm_strv_equal()
- nm_utils_strv_find_binary_search() -> nm_strv_find_binary_search()
- nm_utils_strv_find_first() -> nm_strv_find_first()
- nm_utils_strv_make_deep_copied() -> nm_strv_make_deep_copied()
- nm_utils_strv_make_deep_copied_n() -> nm_strv_make_deep_copied_n()
- nm_utils_strv_make_deep_copied_nonnull() -> nm_strv_make_deep_copied_nonnull()
- nm_utils_strv_sort() -> nm_strv_sort()
Note that no names are swapped and none of the new names existed
previously. That means, all the new names are really new, which
simplifies to find errors due to this larger refactoring. E.g. if
you backport a patch from after this change to an old branch, you'll
get a compiler error and notice that something is missing.
On architectures where "char" is signed, the check "ch < ' '" is
also TRUE for non-ASCII characters greater than 127. This is an
easy mistake to make. Fix it by using nm_ascii_is_control() which
gets this right.
It's a bug, but possibly not too bad because unnecesarily escaping
a UTF-8 characters is not a severe problem, because the user anyway must
be prepared to unescape the string.
When looking at a property, it should always be clear how it is handled.
Also the "default" action should be an explicit hook.
Add _nm_setting_property_from_dbus_fcn_gprop() and set that as
from_dbus_fcn() callback to handle the "default" case which us
build around g_object_set_property().
While this adds lines of code, I think it makes the code easier to
understand. Basically, to convert a GVariant to a property, now all
properties call their from_dbus_fcn() handler, there is no special casing.
And the gprop-hook is only called for properties that are using
_nm_setting_property_from_dbus_fcn_gprop(). So, you can reason about
these two functions at separate layers.
Add a new property to specify the minimum time interval in
milliseconds for which dynamic IP configuration should be tried before
the connection succeeds.
This property is useful for example if both IPv4 and IPv6 are enabled
and are allowed to fail. Normally the connection succeeds as soon as
one of the two address families completes; by setting a required
timeout for e.g. IPv4, one can ensure that even if IP6 succeeds
earlier than IPv4, NetworkManager waits some time for IPv4 before the
connection becomes active.
clang 3.4.2-9.el7 dislikes expressions in the form
int v;
struct {
typeof(({ v; })) _field;
} x;
error: statement expression not allowed at file scope
typeof( ({ v; }) ) _field;
^
That is, if the argument to typeof() is an expression statement. But this is
what
nm_hash_update_val(&h, ..., NM_HASH_COMBINE_BOOLS(...))
expands to. Rework NM_HASH_COMBINE_BOOLS() to avoid the expression statement.
We still have the static assertion for the size of the return type.
We no longer have the _nm_hash_combine_bools_type typedef. It really
wasn't needed, and the current variant is always safe without it.
Fixes: 23adeed244 ('glib-aux: use NM_VA_ARGS_FOREACH() to implement NM_HASH_COMBINE_BOOLS()')
nm_uuid_generate_from_string*() accepts an optional namespace parameter,
to seed the hashing. This previously was a UUID in string format, so it
first had to be parsed.
Rework the code to pass a NMUuid instance that can be used directly.
Also, as the type_args parameter is always of the same type, change
the argument from a void pointer to "const NMUuid *" pointer.
