Older versions of iproute2 don't support the "enclimit" argument. Work
around that from the unit tests.

If the client was waiting for IPv6 DAD to complete and the lease was
updated or lost, `wait_ipv6_dad` needs to be cleared; otherwise, at
the next platform change the client will try to evaluate the DAD state
with a different or no lease. In particular if there is no lease the
client will try to decline it because there are no valid addresses,
leading to an assertion failure:

<error> is mostly about "really should not happen" scenarios. It's
closer to an assertion failure, and something that NetworkManager should
not happen.
Of course, things can go wrong, but <warn> is a sufficient. When ovsdb
gives unexpected communication, it's just a warning. At least, that's
also what all the similar cases in "nm-ovsdb.c" already do
GSocketConnection/GOutputStream/GInputStream seems rather unnecessary.
Maybe they make sense when you want to write portable code (for
Windows). Otherwise, watching a file descriptor and reading/writing it
directly is simpler (and also more efficient).
For example, we passed no GCancellable to g_input_stream_read_async().
What does that mean w.r.t. destroying the NMOvsdb instance? I suspect
it's wrong, but it's hard to say, because there are so many layers of
code.
Note that we anyway keep state in NMOvsdb, namely the data we want to
send (output_buf) and the data we partially received (input_buf). All we
need, are poll notifications when the file descriptor is ready. To
those, we hook up the read/write callbacks. Also before was the code
async, and there were callbacks when when read/write was done. That does
not simplify the code in any way.
- we no longer use separate NMOvsdbPrivate.buf and NMOvsdbPrivate.input
buffers. There is just a NMOvsdbPrivate.input_buf that can we can fill
directly.
The "priv->bufp" offset is only used while parsing a message at a time.
It's unnecessary to track it in NMOvsdbPrivate and keep it between
parsing messages. Tracking the state in NMOvsdbPrivate makes it more
complicated to understand, because one needs to reason at which times
the state is used (when it really is not used).
Also, move the parsing to a separate function.
We did not initialize "child_stderr". If that were necessary, we would need
to add it too. However, it is clearly not necessary to initialize those fields.
F_SETFL will reset the flags. That is wrong, as we only want to add
O_NONBLOCK flag and leaving the other flags alone. Usually, we would
need to call F_GETFL first.
Note that on Linux, F_SETFL can only set certain flags, so the
O_RDWR|O_CLOEXEC flags were unaffected by this. That means, most likely
there are no other flags that our use of F_SETFL would wrongly clear.
Still, it's ugly, because it's not obvious whether there might be other
flags.
Avoid that altogether, by setting the flag already during open().

The device shouldn't change state from DEACTIVATING to DISCONNECTED
until its detached from its controller; otherwise, the port detach
that is in progress can conflict with the following activation.
This changes the signature of detach_port() to be asynchronous,
similarly to attach_port(). The implementation can return TRUE/FALSE
on immediate completion.
Current implementations return immediately and so there is no change
in behavior for now.
It is wrong trying to send the signal still. Just error out.
Note that ECHILD indicates that the process is either not a child
or was already reaped. In both cases, that is a bug of the caller
who must keep accurate track of the child's process ID.
It's easy enough to know how many bytes are needed. Just allocate the
right size (+1, because NMStrBuf really likes to reserve that extra byte
for the trailing NUL, even if it's not needed in this case).
- drop annotations from "@error" which has defaults.
- ensure all annotations are on the same line. That's useful
when searching for an annotation, to find the line that specifies
the argument name.
- convert a few plain docs into gtkdoc annotations.
Don't try to block a device/connection pair when the connection was
removed. Doing so would create a new devcon entry associated with the
connection that is being deleted.
Fixes: b73b34c3ee ('policy: track autoconnect retries per Device x Connection')
If we are deactivating active-connections for a specific
settings-connection, also consider active-connections that are waiting
for authorization. Otherwise, when the connection is deleted, a
active-connection might still reference it.
If the automatically selected channel for an AP is set as NO-IR in the
current regulatory domain, the hotspot connection will fail to
start. NO-IR means that any mechanisms that initiate radiation are not
permitted on this channel, this includes sending probe requests or
modes of operation that require beaconing such as AP. Skip channels
with the NO-IR flag.
The sys-iface-state "assume" means to gracefully take over a device (for
example, after a restart). The end result is a fully managed interface.
The flag only has meaning while activating, and for most practical
purposes, such devices should be treated the same as fully activated
ones.
Without this, the MTU is not reset until the device reaches fully
activated state, at which point the sys-iface-state switches from
"assume" to "managed". With the previous commit, at that point we also
schedule an idle commit, which ends up also setting the MTU. Before
that, the MTU was only reset some undefined time later, when we happened
to do another NML3Cfg commit. Nonetheless, even waiting until we reach
fully activated state is wrong. Also during activation, commit the MTU.
I guess, what theoretically could happen is that we get our MTU via
ip-config (like DHCP). Then, during assuming we hit _commit_mtu()
without having the DHCP lease yet. This happens after a restart, so it
would be wrong to first reset the MTU, before we re-receive the DHCP
lease. However, if the MTU is really to be set due via
NM_DEVICE_MTU_SOURCE_IP_CONFIG, then all other MTU sources are also not
in effect (because ip-config has a low priority). In that case, we would
not have an MTU to reset and the code would not commit a new MTU. Thus
this should still be fine, also during activation when we didn't yet get
the DHCP lease (or other information to dynamically set the MTU).
When assuming a device, the NMActiveConnection switches the
sys-iface-state from "assume" to "managed" when the device reaches the
activated state.
<debug> [1679353062.8884] active-connection[000055bd310b92e0]: set state activated (was activating)
<debug> [1679353062.8885] active-connection[000055bd310b92e0]: update activation type from assume to managed
Note that the "assume" state is probably a misfeature, and should be
dropped in favor of more appropriate flags. Meaning, "assume" state for
the most part is very similar to sys-iface-state "managed", and the
cases where (during activation) we need to be graceful, may be better
covered with other (more specialized) state flags. Regardless, for most
practical purposes, sys-iface-state "assume" should be treated similar
to "managed" state.
When we fully activated, we should be sure to do yet another idle
commit. Note that scheduling an idle-commit is something that must
always be allowed to any users of NML3Cfg. The users have no knowledge
about each other and coordinate by registering their commit type
handles. Issuing an idle "auto" commit must be therefore allowed to
them at any time. If that were not the case, then there would be a bug
to fix. The only reason to maybe not do it, is when we are sure there is
nothing to commit and we would want to avoid unnecessary work.
You can easily reproduce this and see that we don't in fact schedule a
commit after becoming managed. A commit usually only happens later, for
example when we receive an autoconf6 update.
This affects for example setting the MTU. Currently, _commit_mtu() bails
out for nm_device_sys_iface_state_is_external_or_assume() and thus
during activation the MTU will not be set. Later, once we reach
activated state, due to this it still is not set right away. This patch
fixes that, although we should also change _commit_mtu() to not bail out
for sys-iface-state "assume".
NetworkManager.service is "Type=dbus". Systemd takes that as indication
for declaring the service as started when the D-Bus name is acquired.
Currently, we acquire the name very early. The benefit is, that the
service appears to start very fast. However, most the D-Bus API is not
yet populated or ready to use. So if you order your service
`After=NetworkManager.service`, then there is a race that NetworkManager
might not yet be fully usable.
Another benefit was that requesting a D-Bus name is atomic. That means,
we could take that to ensure only one NetworkManager daemon was running.
If we noticed that NetworkManager is already running, we would quit
without doing anything. In practice, systemd already ensures that the
daemon is not running in parallel. This was still useful for catching
misuse when testing manually. This is now no longer done. We will notice
a concurrent NetworkManager only very late, at which point we might have
already broken things (e.g. rewrite wrong state files).
Fix the race with `After=` by acquiring the name much later.
Note that NetworkManager is pretty slow during initialization. This
easily adds several hundreds of milliseconds to the startup.
Since l3cfg rework, NetworkManager tracks IP routes early, not not only
when IP configuration is ready. That means, with `ipv4.method=auto` and
static `ipv4.routes`, then routes are most likely already configured
before the IP address is obtained via DHCP.
That may be desirable in some cases, but for many cases it's probably
wrong.
Instead, only configure the routes (with an ifindex) when we also have
an IP address.

"wifi.seen-bssids" looks like a regular property, but it is not. Unlike
almost all other properties, it does not contain user configuration,
rather it gets filled by the daemon.
The values are thus stored in "/var/lib/NetworkManager/seen-bssids"
file, and the daemon maintains the values separately from the profile.
Only before exporting the profile on D-Bus, the value gets merged (see
NM_SETTINGS_CONNECTION_GET_PRIVATE(self)->>getsettings_cached and
nm_connection_to_dbus_full().
Hence, looking at nm_setting_wireless_get_num_seen_bssids() is not
working. Fix that.

Previously, there was "temporary-not-available" mechanism in NML3Cfg,
which aimed to handle IPv6 routes with prefsrc. Theoretically, that
mechanism may have been extended to other use-cases, like IPv4 routes
with prefsrc. What it attempted to handle, is the inability to configure
such routes, unless the respective prefsrc address is configured and
non-tentative. However, the address that we are waiting for, could also
be on another interface, so that mechanism wasn't applicable. This is
now replaced by _routes_watch_ip_addrs(). It seems there isn't anything
useful left for the "temporary-not-available" mechanism and it can go,
except...
We want to log a warning when we are unable to configure a route. Also,
in the future we might want to know when the IP configuration is
degradated due to inability to configure the desired routes (a condition
that we might want to expose to the user, not only via logging; or we
may want to react on that).
However, with prefsrc routes we don't know right away whether the
inability to configure the route right away indicates an actual problem,
or whether that will resolve itself (e.g. after the address passes
DAD/ACD, after we received an DHCP lease or after the address was
configured on another interface). Consequently, to know whether the
current inability to configure such a route is a problem, we need to
know the larger context. nm_platform_ip_route_sync() does not have that
context.
Instead, nm_platform_ip_route_sync() needs only do debug log about
failure to configure routes. It will now also return all the failed
routes to NML3Cfg, which can decide whether that is a problem.
This reworks the previous "temporary-not-available" mechanism to track
the state of the failed routes, to eventually decide whether there is an
actual problem (and log about it).
Another problem this solves is that since commit ('platform: always
reconfigure IP routes even if removed externally'), we will eagerly
re-try to configure the same route over and over. We cannot just spam
the log with warnings about the same failure on every commit. We need to
remember that we already logged about the problem and rate limit
warnings otherwise. This is what the new mechanism also achieves.
Indeed, all this is mostly for the sole benefit of logging better
warnings (and not duplicated).
It was unused anyway.
But also, what would we do with this? We are in the middle of a commit,
if something goes wrong, we cannot just abort but need to continue on
and make the best of it.
Maybe there are very specific error cases that we need to handle, but
those are not covered by a boolean return value. Instead, we might need
to take specific action.
The boolean success variable was meaningless. Drop it.
