Some proprietary drivers (wl.o) report tuned frequency (like when
scanning) instead of the associated AP's frequency. This is a great
example of how WEXT is underspecified. We use frequency to find the
active AP in the scan list because some configurations use the same
SSID/BSSID on the 2GHz and 5GHz bands simultaneously, and we need to
make sure we get the right AP in the right band. This configuration
is uncommon though, and the frequency check penalizes closed drivers we
can't fix. Because we're not total dicks, ignore the frequency condition
if the associated BSSID/SSID exists only in one band since that's most
likely the AP we want.
If an NMObject listened to property change notifications from
other NMObjects and then in response to that queued up other
property changes of it's own, those would get added to the
property change list that was being iterated through already.
Each name in the change list is freed after being notified,
but the change list itself is actually freed when all
properties have been notified. So an object that queues up
another change notification ends up in _nm_object_queue_notify()
which iterates the change list where half of the data elements
are already freed...
priv->ip_iface gets destroyed in vpn_cleanup() when the class
signal handler handles FAILED/DISCONNECTED, but the dispatcher
is only called *after* that, so it gets a NULL ip_iface. Fix that
so that the dispatcher always gets the tunnel interface for
vpn-up and vpn-down.
ifcfg-rh plugin didn't prepend 's:' prefix when writing out ASCII WEP
keys. That rendered the keys file invalid. Moreover, the reading part
was incorrect too not having recognized correct ASCII keys.
dnsmasq may read from its default config file location, which if that
location is a valid config file, it will combine with the options here
and cause undesirable side-effects. Like sending bogus IP addresses
as the gateway or whatever. So give dnsmasq a bogus config file
location to avoid screwing up the configuration we're passing to it.
If the wired setting isn't modified at all from the default values
it won't get written out anymore after 12dcc07b74,
so make sure we include it when necessary.
Since forever we've used sleep/wake as the way to implement
Networking Enabled. When the state file was introduced to make the
networking and wifi states persistent, we ran into a bug where
a failed suspend (like if the machine ran out of power while
suspended) would result in networking being disabled on reboot
since suspend/resume used the same knob as enable/disable.
This patch adds a distinct call for enable/disable networking
which changes the state file, while sleep/wake no longer change
the state file.
All IPv6 enabled sites are expected to provide router advertisement
support apparently. If standalone DHCP is really used in the wild
then we can clearly re-enable it later.
