Add a new 'carrier' flag to the InterfaceFlags property of devices to
indicate the current carrier state.
The new flag is equivalent to the 'lower-up' flag for all devices
except the ones that use a non-standard carrier detection mechanism
like NMDeviceAdsl.
Add a new read-only "InterfaceFlags" property to the Device interface
to export via D-Bus kernel flags and possibly other NM specific
flags. At the moment IFF_UP and IFF_LOWERUP are implemented.
After we set link parameters (auto-negotiation, speed, duplex) in
stage1, the carrier can go down for several seconds because the
Ethernet PHY needs to renegotiate the link. Wait that carrier goes up
before starting the supplicant or the EAPoL start packet can be lost
causing an authentication failure.

[user] are arbitrary strings that can be attached to a connection.
NetworkManager itself does not care about them, they are only here
for other applications.
Allow reapplying changes to the user setting. Usually the reason to
reject reapplying a setting is because it's either not implemented
or not possible to change (without a full reactivation of the device).
In this case there is nothing to implement, and of course it's possible
to do so.
In nm_acd_manager_announce_addresses() we should not only start the
probes but also add the acd file descriptor to the main loop.
Otherwise, a timer is armed to send the announcements but it never
fires and no announcements are sent.

Track whether IP addresses were added by NM or externally. In this way
it becomes possible in a later commit to add prefix route only for
addresses added by NM.
Allow a reapply of the connection when the device is still activating
and ensure that each reapply action is performed only at a given
activation stage. For example, the IP configuration is not reactivated
if the device is in the prepare stage.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1763062
If the 802.1X authentication fails and 802-1x.optional is set,
continue with activation. In this case, subscribe to the auth-state
supplicant property so that any dynamic IP method can be restarted
when the authentication succeeds. This is because upon authentication
the switch could have changed the VLAN we are connected to.
These "pending-actions" only have one purpose: to mark the device
as busy and thereby delay "startup complete" to be reached. That
in turn delays "NetworkManager-wait-online" service.
Of course, "NetworkManager-wait-online" waits for some form of readiness
and is not extensively configurable (e.g. you cannot exclude devices from
being waited). However, the intent is to wait that all devices are "settled".
That means among others, that the timeouts waiting for carrier and Wi-Fi scan
results passed, and devices either don't have a connection profile to autoactivate,
or they autoactivated profiles and are in state "connected".
A major point here is that the device is considered ready, once it
reaches the state "connected". Note that if you configure both IPv4 and
IPv6 addressing modes, than "ipv4.may-fail=yes" and "ipv6.may-fail=yes"
means, that the device is considered fully activated once one address
family completes. Again, this is not very configurable, but by setting
"ipv6.may-fail=no", you can require that the device has indeed IPv6
addressing completed.
Now, the determining factor for declaring "startup complete" is whether the
device is in state "connected". That may or may not mean that DHCPv4,
autoconf or DHCPv6 completed, as it depends on a overall state of the
device. So, it is wrong to have distinct pending actions for these operations.
Remove them.
This fixes that we wrongly would wait too long before declaring startup
complete. But it is also a change in behavior.
We try to set only one time the MTU from the connection to not
interfere with manual user changes.
If at some point the parent interface changes temporarily MTU to a
lower value (for example, because the connection was reactivated), the
kernel will also lower the MTU on child interface and we will not
update it ever again.
Add a workaround to this. If we detect that the MTU we want to set
from connection is higher that the allowed one, go into a state where
we follow the parent MTU until it is possible to set again the desired
MTU. This is a bit ugly, but I can't think of any nicer way to do it.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1751079
A MACsec connection doesn't have an ordering dependency with its
parent connection and so it's possible that the parent gets activated
later and sets a greater MTU than the original one.
It is reasonable and useful to keep the MACsec MTU configured by
default as the maximum allowed by the parent interface, that is the
parent MTU minus the encapsulation overhead (32). The user can of
course override this by setting an explicit value in the
connection. We already do something similar for VLANs.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1723690
Introduce a generic function to set a MTU based on parent's one. Also
define a device-specific @mtu_parent_delta value that specifies the
difference from parent MTU that should be set by default. For VLAN it
is zero but other interface types (for example MACsec) require a
positive value due to encapsulation overhead.

The Bluetooth DUN device's NMModem would signal the reset of ifindex to zero
when it's disconnected and the NMDeviceBt would accordingly update the
bluetooth device's ip ifindex. This is not okay since commit ab4578302d
('device: refactor nm_device_set_ip_ifindex() and set_ip_iface()') which,
although claiming to be a refactoring, made such use of
nm_device_set_ip_ifindex() illegal. Resetting the ifindex is anyway not
necessary, since it's taken care of _cleanup_generic_post().
Let's leave the ifindex alone once the device is activated, in a manner
analogous to what NMDeviceModem.

The devices tests' meson build files include only the build of a
single executable file and its execution as a test unit.
This has been moved to the devices' main meson build files so this
files can be removed.
In 878d4963e a new `nm-bt-test` helper program was added. However,
although `autotools` build steps were included, meson build steps
were not.
This add meson's build steps.
The test unit name string is used in different place so it has been
replaced by a variable.
The `nm-service-providers.c` source file is appended by using a
`files` generated object.
The linker flags used when building `libnm_wwan` target uses an
array even when it only uses one value.
When using only one value the array is unnecessary so it has been
removed.
The targets that involve the use of the `NetworkManager` library,
built in the `src` build file have been improved by applying a set
of changes:
- Indentation has been fixed.
- Set of objects used in targets have been grouped together.
- Aritificial dependencies used to group dependencies and custom
compiler flags have been removed and their use replaced with
proper dependencies and compiler flags to avoid any confussion.
The `libnm-core` build file has been improved by applying a set of
changes:
- Indentation has been fixed to be consistent.
- Library variable names have been changed to `lib{name}` pattern
following their filename pattern.
- `shared` prefix has been removed from all variables using it.
- Dependencies have been reviewed to store the necessary data.
- The use of the libraries and dependencies created in this file
has been reviewed through the entire source code. This has
required the addition or the removal of different libraries and
dependencies in different targets.
- Some files used directly with the `files` function have been moved
to their nearest path build file because meson stores their full
path seamessly and they can be used anywhere later.
The `nm-default.h` header is used widely in the code by many
targets. This header includes different headers and needs different
libraries depending the compilation flags.
A new set of `*nm_default_dep` dependencies have been created to
ease the inclusion of different directorires and libraries.
This allows cleaner build files and avoiding linking unnecessary
libraries so this has been applied allowing the removal of some
dependencies involving the linking of unnecessary libraries.
Only reapply the IP configuration on link up if the IP state is CONF
or DONE. Previously we also reapplied it when the device was
disconnected (IP state NONE) and this could lead to a situation where
an incomplete config was applied; then we intersected the desired
configuration with the external - incomplete - one, causing the
removal of part of desired configuration (for example the default
route).

This is a complete refactoring of the bluetooth code.
Now that BlueZ 4 support was dropped, the separation of NMBluezManager
and NMBluez5Manager makes no sense. They should be merged.
At that point, notice that BlueZ 5's D-Bus API is fully centered around
D-Bus's ObjectManager interface. Using that interface, we basically only
call GetManagedObjects() once and register to InterfacesAdded,
InterfacesRemoved and PropertiesChanged signals. There is no need to
fetch individual properties ever.
Note how NMBluezDevice used to query the D-Bus properties itself by
creating a GDBusProxy. This is redundant, because when using the ObjectManager
interfaces, we have all information already.
Instead, let NMBluezManager basically become the client-side cache of
all of BlueZ's ObjectManager interface. NMBluezDevice was mostly concerned
about caching the D-Bus interface's state, tracking suitable profiles
(pan_connection), and moderate between bluez and NMDeviceBt.
These tasks don't get simpler by moving them to a seprate file. Let them
also be handled by NMBluezManager.
I mean, just look how it was previously: NMBluez5Manager registers to
ObjectManager interface and sees a device appearing. It creates a
NMBluezDevice object and registers to its "initialized" and
"notify:usable" signal. In the meantime, NMBluezDevice fetches the
relevant information from D-Bus (although it was already present in the
data provided by the ObjectManager) and eventually emits these usable
and initialized signals.
Then, NMBlue5Manager emits a "bdaddr-added" signal, for which NMBluezManager
creates the NMDeviceBt instance. NMBluezManager, NMBluez5Manager and
NMBluezDevice are strongly cooperating to the point that it is simpler
to merge them.
This is not mere refactoring. This patch aims to make everything
asynchronously and always cancellable. Also, it aims to fix races
and inconsistencies of the state.
- Registering to a NAP server now waits for the response and delays
activation of the NMDeviceBridge accordingly.
- For NAP connections we now watch the bnep0 interface in platform, and tear
down the device when it goes away. Bluez doesn't send us a notification
on D-Bus in that case.
- Rework establishing a DUN connection. It no longer uses blocking
connect() and does not block until rfcomm device appears. It's
all async now. It also watches the rfcomm file descriptor for
POLLERR/POLLHUP to notice disconnect.
- drop nm_device_factory_emit_component_added() and instead let
NMDeviceBt directly register to the WWan factory's "added" signal.
The previous function arguments of nm_modem_act_stage2_config() act as if the
function could fail or even postpone the action. It never did.
We cannot treat this generic. A caller needs to know whether nm_modem_act_stage2_config()
can postpone the action, and when it does, which signal is emitted upon completion. That
is, the caller needs to know how to proceed after postponing.
In other words, since this function currently cannot fail or postpone
the stage, so must all callers already rely on that. At this point it makes
no sense to pretend that the function could be any different, if all callers
assume it is not. Simplify the API.
Currently, we cannot ask which modems exist. NMDeviceBt may claim it
via nm_device_factory_emit_component_added(), and NMWWanFactory may
take it by listening to NM_MODEM_MANAGER_MODEM_ADDED. But that's it.
We will drop nm_device_factory_emit_component_added() because it's only
used for passing modems to NMDeviceBt. Instead, NMDeviceBt can directly
subscribe to NM_MODEM_MANAGER_MODEM_ADDED. It already has a reference
to NMModemManager.
Anyway, the NM_MODEM_MANAGER_MODEM_ADDED signal is no enough, because
sometimes when the mode appears, NMDeviceBt might not yet know whether
it should take it (because the DUN connect call is not yet complete).
Currently that never happens because dun_connect() blocks waiting for
the device. That must be fixed, by not waiting. But this opens up a
race, and NMDeviceBt might after NM_MODEM_MANAGER_MODEM_ADDED need to
search for the suitable modem: by iterating the list of all modems.
