Avoid GDBusProxy, instead use GDBusConnection directly. I very much
prefer this because that way we have explicit control over what happens
on D-Bus. With GDBusProxy this is hidden under another layer of complex
code. The hardest part when using a D-Bus interface is to manage the
state via an asynchronous medium. GDBusProxy contains state about the
D-Bus interface and duplicate the state that we track. This makes it hard
to reason about things.
Rework creation of NMSupplicantInterface. Previously, a NMSupplicantInterface
had multiple initialization states. In particular, the first state would not
yet tie the interface to a certain D-Bus object path. Instead, NMSupplicantInterface
would try and retry to create the D-Bus object.
Now, NMSupplicantManager has an asynchronous method to create interface
instances. The manager only creates an interface instance after the D-Bus
path is known. That means, a NMSupplicantInterface instance is now
strongly tied to a name-owner and D-Bus path.
It follows that the state of NMSupplicantInterface can only go from STARTING,
via the supplicant states, to DOWN. Never back. That was already previously
the case that the state from DOWN was final and once the 3 initial
states were passed, the interface's state would never go back to the initial
state. Now this is more strict and more formalized. The 3 initialization states
are combined.
I think the tighter state handling simplifies users of NMSupplicantInterface.
See for example "nm-device-ethernet.c". It's still complicated, because handling
state is fundamentally difficult.
NMSupplicantManager will take care to D-Bus activate wpa_supplicant only
when necessary (poke). Previously, creating the manager instance
would always start suppliant service. Now, it's started on demand.
It's very unlikely that we have actual blobs for a Wi-Fi network.
That is because the settings plugins (keyfile, ifcfg-rh) convert
blobs to files on disk when writing the profile. So, you can only
have them by editing the files directly to contain blobs.
At that point, don't always create the GHashTable for blobs.
The _GET_PRIVATE() macros are all implemented based on
_NM_GET_PRIVATE(). That macro tries to be more type safe and uses
_Generic() to do the right thing. Explicitly casting is not only
unnecessary, it defeats these (static) type checks.
Don't do that.
Several macros are used to define function. They had a "_STATIC" variant,
to define the function as static.
I think those macros should not try to abstract entirely what they do.
They should not accept the function scope as argument (or have two
variants per scope). This also because it might make sense to add
additional __attribute__(()) to the function. That only works, if
the macro does not pretend to *not* define a plain function.
Instead, embrace what the function does and let the users place the
function scope as they see fit.
This also follows what is already done with
static NM_CACHED_QUARK_FCN ("autoconnect-root", autoconnect_root_quark)
We frequently have code that converts a string to number/enum.
Use a preferred implementation via the NM_UTILS_STRING_TABLE_LOOKUP_DEFINE()
macro.
Also, this does binary search, so in most cases it's (slightly) faster.
Defines in our header files should all have an NM specific prefix.
Rename.
Also rename the related defines in the source file. Usually declarations
in a source file should not have an NM prefix. But here they have for
consistency.
We keep adding capabilities. Tracking them individually via boolean (or
ternary) properties is cumbersome.
Instead, use an enum NMSupplCapType and a corresponding bitmask
NMSupplCapMask. The latter can track whether a capability is detected,
detected to be absent or not detected (unknown).
We should handle features/capabilities more generically.
Add an enum type for that. It will be used next.
Also, wpa_supplicant calls this "Capabilities", not features.
Use that name.
The signal is unused (and should be removed).
Still, the parameter passed to g_signal_emit() is a C string, not a
GVariant. I think as there are no subscribers, glib wouldn't actually
do anything with the arguments. Though, I am not sure whether glib still
tries to initialize a GValue with a GVariant type, leading to a crash.

Move it to shared as it's useful for clients as well.
Move and rename nm_dbus_manager_new_auth_subject_from_context() and
nm_dbus_manager_new_auth_subject_from_message() in nm-dbus-manager.c
as they're needed there.
The abbreviations "ns" and "ms" seem not very clear to me. Spell them
out to nsec/msec. Also, in parts we already used the longer abbreviations,
so it wasn't consistent.
PMF can be used with SAE, allow it. Actually, it is required according
to WPA3 specifications but there are implementations that don't
require it (hostapd can be configured in a such way); so let's not
make it mandatory for WPA3.

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.
FT-SAE is missing in the supplicant configuration verification list,
causing an activation failure when using SAE and the supplicant
supports FT.
Fixes: d17a0a0905 ('supplicant: allow fast transition for WPA-PSK and WPA-EAP')
NM didn't support wpa-none for years because kernel drivers used to be
broken. Note that it wasn't even possible to *add* a connection with
wpa-none because it was rejected in nm_settings_add_connection_dbus().
Given that wpa-none is also deprecated in wpa_supplicant and is
considered insecure, drop altogether any reference to it.
Previously we only cared whether supplicant is build with support for
FT. In that case we would pass FT-PSK to supplicant, like
Config: added 'key_mgmt' value 'WPA-PSK WPA-PSK-SHA256 FT-PSK'
Supplicant would then always try FT with preference, regardless whether
the interface/driver support it. That results in a failure to associate, if
the driver does not support it.
NetworkManager[1356]: <info> [1566296144.9940] Config: added 'key_mgmt' value 'WPA-PSK WPA-PSK-SHA256 FT-PSK'

Since we pass a list of acceptable "key_mgmt" options to supplicant,
FT-PSK should not be used when supplicant knows it's not supported.
That is a supplicant bug.
Regardless, work around it by checking the per-interface capability, and
avoid it if support is apparently not present.
They should be "static" and only visible to this source file.
Also, they should be "const", that allows the linker to place them
into read-only memory.

For better or worse, the API does not require the value to be a
UTF-8 string. We cannot just concatenate binary to a string.
Instead, backslash escape it with utf8safe-escape.
Also, this will shut up a (wrong) coverity warning at this place.

This ensures that we know whether wpa_supplicant was built with
CONFIG_MESH enabled.

allow to call dbus method "Disconnect" and handle a callback given by

the operation to complete.
We no longer add these. If you use Emacs, configure it yourself.
Also, due to our "smart-tab" usage the editor anyway does a subpar
job handling our tabs. However, on the upside every user can choose
whatever tab-width he/she prefers. If "smart-tabs" are used properly
(like we do), every tab-width will work.
No manual changes, just ran commands:
F=($(git grep -l -e '-\*-'))
sed '1 { /\/\* *-\*- *[mM]ode.*\*\/$/d }' -i "${F[@]}"
sed '1,4 { /^\(#\|--\|dnl\) *-\*- [mM]ode/d }' -i "${F[@]}"
Check remaining lines with:
git grep -e '-\*-'
The ultimate purpose of this is to cleanup our files and eventually use
SPDX license identifiers. For that, first get rid of the boilerplate lines.
