Calling c_list_link_tail() on a list entry that already belongs to
another list corrupts the other list, in this case 'old_lst_head';
this is explained in the documentation of c_list_link_before():
* @what is not inspected prior to being linked. Hence, it better not
* be linked into another list, or the other list will be corrupted.
This can be reproduced by invoking "nmcli device wifi rescan ssid x"
multiple times; in this way, _scan_request_ssids_track() reuses the
previous SSID data, the list gets corrupted and this causes a crash.

When the attach_port()/detach_port() methods do not return immediately
(currently, only for OVS ports), the following situation can arise:
- nm_device_controller_attach_port() starts the attachment by sending
the command to ovsdb. Note that here we don't set
`PortInfo->port_is_attached` to TRUE yet; that happens only after
the asynchronous command returns;
- the activation of the port gets interrupted because the connection
is deleted;
- the port device enters the deactivating state, triggering function
port_state_changed()
- the function calls nm_device_controller_release_port() which checks
whether the port is already attached; since
`PortInfo->port_is_attached` is not set yet, it assumes the port
doesn't need to be detached;
- in the meantime, the ovsdb operation succeeds. As a consequence,
the kernel link is created even if the connection no longer exists.
Fix this by turning `port_is_attached` into a tri-state variable that
also tracks when the port is attaching. When it is, we need to perform
an explicit detach during deactivation.

(cherry picked from commit a8329587c8)
When using the netdev datapath, we wait for the link to appear in
different steps:
1. initially, in act_stage3_ip_config() connects to platform's
"link-changed" signal to detect when the TUN interface appears;
2. when the interface appears, _netdev_tun_link_cb() schedules
_set_ip_ifindex_tun() in a idle handler;
3. _set_ip_ifindex_tun() checks if the link is ready (e.g. if the MAC
address is correct) and in that case it reschedules stage3, which
will move forward with the activation;
4. if the link is not ready in _set_ip_ifindex_tun(), the function
connects again to platform's "link-changed" signal to react to link
changes;
5. after the link changes and it is ready, _netdev_tun_link_cb()
reschedules stage3, which moves forward with the activation;
With the current implementation it is possible that after step 2, if
act_stage3_ip_config() runs because it was already scheduled, it
registers again to the "link-changed" event; then when
_set_ip_ifindex_tun() is invoked it will hit assertion:
nm_assert(!priv->wait_link.tun_link_signal_id);
Fix this by preventing that the signal gets registered again after
step 2.

Managed type = managed is a bit unclear, because all managed types are
for devices that are managed, but with different levels. Managed type =
managed could be interpreted as other types are unmanaged. Change it to
managed type = full.
Don't enforce IP cleanup when devices are in deactivating state, to
make sure that network connection is still available for pre-down

For now, always reapply the VLANs unconditionally, even if they didn't
change in kernel.
To set again the VLANs on the port we need to clear all the existing
one before. However, this deletes also the VLAN for the default-pvid
on the bridge. Therefore, we need some additional logic to inject the
default-pvid in the list of VLANs.

Currently, nm_platform_link_set_bridge_vlans() accepts an array of
pointers to vlan objects; to avoid multiple allocations,
setting_vlans_to_platform() creates the array by piggybacking the
actual data after the pointers array.
In the next commits, the array will need to be manipulated and
extended, which is difficult with the current structure. Instead, pass
separately an array of objects and its size.
During nm_lldp_neighbor_parse(), the NMLldpNeighbor is not yet added to
the NMLldpRX instance. Consequently, n->lldp_rx is NULL.
Note how we use lldp_x for logging, because we need it for the context
for which interface the logging statement is.
Thus, those debug logging statements will follow a NULL pointer and lead
to a crash.

It is possible that we learn the link is ready on stage3_ip_config
rather than in link_changed event due to a stage3_ip_config scheduled by
another component. In such cases, we proceed with IP configuration
without allocating the resources needed like initializing DHCP client.
In order to avoid that, if we learn during stage3_ip_config that the
link is now ready, we need to schedule another stage3_ip_config to
allocate the resources we might need.

When activating an ovs-interface we already wait for the cloned MAC
address to be set, ifindex is present and platform link also present but
in some cases this is not enough.
If an udev rule is in place it might modify the interface when it is in
a later stage of the activation causing some race conditions or
problems. In order to solve that, we must wait until the link is fully
initialized.
Before introducing the hostname lookup via nm-daemon-helper and
systemd-resolved, we used GLib's GResolver which internally relies on
the libc resolver and generally also returns results from /etc/hosts.
With the new mechanism we only ask to systemd-resolved (with
NO_SYNTHESIZE) or perform the lookup via the "dns" NSS module. In both
ways, /etc/hosts is not evaluated.
Since users relied on having the hostname resolved via /etc/hosts,
restore that behavior. Now, after trying the resolution via
systemd-resolved and the "dns" NSS module, we also try via the "files"
NSS module which reads /etc/hosts.

When the lease expires, the DHCP client emits a LEASE_UPDATE event
with a NULL l3cd. After returning from the handler, it sends
immediately a DHCP DISCOVER message to try to get a new lease.
It is important that when the DISCOVER gets sent the address is no
longer configured on the interface. Otherwise, the server could see
that it is already in use and assign a different one. Therefore,
remove the address synchronously when handling the event.

The OVS interface can be matched via MAC address; in that case, the
"connection.interface-name" property of the connection is empty.

from the device, not the one from the connection.

The group interface is only used during activation; there is no need
to add a pending action for it, because when the device is in
activating state it already delays "startup-complete" via other
pending actions.
Problem:
Given a OVS port with `autoconnect-ports` set to default or false,
when reactivation required for checkpoint rollback,
previous activated OVS interface will be in deactivate state after
checkpoint rollback.
The root cause:
The `activate_stage1_device_prepare()` will mark the device as
failed when controller is deactivating or deactivated.
In `activate_stage1_device_prepare()`, the controller device is
retrieved from NMActiveConnection, it will be NULL when NMActiveConnection
is in deactivated state. This will cause device been set to
`NM_DEVICE_STATE_REASON_DEPENDENCY_FAILED` which prevent all follow
up `autoconnect` actions.
Fix:
When noticing controller is deactivating or deactivated with reason
`NM_DEVICE_STATE_REASON_NEW_ACTIVATION`, use new function
`nm_active_connection_set_controller_dev()` to wait on controller
device state between NM_DEVICE_STATE_PREPARE and
NM_DEVICE_STATE_ACTIVATED. After that, use existing
`nm_active_connection_set_controller()` to use new
NMActiveConnection of controller to move on.

Commit 797f3cafee ('device: fall back to saved use_tempaddr value
instead of rereading /proc') changed the behaviour of how to get the
last resort default value for ip6-privacy property.
Previously we read it from /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/default, buf after
this commit we started to read /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/<iface> instead,
because the user might have set a different value specific for that device.
As NetworkManager changes that value on connection activation, we used
the value read at the time that NetworkManager was started.
Commit 6cb14ae6a6 ('device: introduce ipv6.temp-valid-lifetime and
ipv6.temp-preferred-lifetime properties') introduced 2 new IPv6 privacy
related properties relying on the same mechanism.
However, this new behaviour is problematic because it's not predictable
nor reliable:
- NetworkManager is normally started at boot time. That means that, if a
user wants to set a new value to /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/<iface>,
NetworkManager is likely alread running, so the change won't take
effect.
- If NetworkManager is restarted it will read the value again, but this
value can be the one set by NetworkManager itself in the last
activation. This means that different values can be used as default in
the same system boot depending on the restarts of NetworkManager.
Moreover, this weird situation might happen:
- Connection A with ip6-privacy=2 is activated
- NetworkManager is stopped. The value in
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/<iface>/use_tempaddr remains as 2.
- NetworkManager starts. It reads from /proc/sys/... and saves the value
'2' as the default.
- Connection B with no ip6-privacy setting is activated. The '2' saved
as default value is used. The connection didn't specify any value for
it, and the value '2' was set by another connection for that specific
connection only, not manually by a user that wanted '2' to be the
default.
A user shouldn't have to think on when NetworkManager starts or restarts
to known in an easy and predictable way what the default value for
certain property is. It's totally counterintuitive.
Revert back to the old behaviour of reading from
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/default. Although this value is used by the
kernel only for newly created interfaces, and not for already existing
ones, it is reasonable to think on these settings as "systemwide
defaults" that the user has chosen.
Note that setting a different default in NetworkManager.conf still takes
precedence.
This allows SLAAC for IPv6 to be performed, even when no IPv6
address was passed by the bearer. The link-local address will be
assigned, because of do_auto = TRUE.
The commit also allows the DNS assignment to be made statically when
no IPv6 address has been statically assigned yet. This is to be able
to receive IPv6 DNS servers via signalling, where host SLAAC still
needs to be performed for some modems (e.g. some huawei modems).
This also changes the logging so that SLAAC usage is logged
on a separate line.
Meson has shared_library and shared_module. The latter should be used
only for shared plugins loaded by dlopen, not for shared libraries
linked by the linker.
The target `nm_wwan` was defined as shared_module probably because it
is a library for loadable plugins only, andcontains references to
symbols from the main executable that cannot be resolved at link time.
Do as the deprecation message suggest and convert it to shared_library
with b_lundef=false:
DEPRECATION: target nm-device-plugin-wwan links against shared module nm-wwan, which is incorrect.
This will be an error in the future, so please use shared_library() for nm-wwan instead.
If shared_module() was used for nm-wwan because it has references to undefined symbols,
use shared_library() with `override_options: ['b_lundef=false']` instead.
When IPv6 privacy extensions are enabled, by default temporary addresses
have a valid lifetime of 1 week and a preferred lifetime of 1 day.
That's far too long for privacy-conscious users, some of whom want a new
address once every few seconds. Add connection options that correspond
to /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/temp_valid_lft and
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/temp_prefered_lft to allow configuring the
address rotation time on a per-connection basis.
The new properties are defined as 32-bit signed integers to match the
sysctl parameters which are also signed, although currently only
positive numbers are valid.
A common source for doubts and questions from users is about why
devices are unmanaged. Unfortunately NM doesn't expose that
information properly via D-Bus and so it's not available in nmcli.
The device D-Bus object has two properties that are strictly related:
"state" and "state-reason". The latter represents the reason for the
current state. Introduce new reasons to indicate the possible causes
for the unmanaged state. Note that a device can be unmanaged because
of multiple reasons at the same time, we only return one.

Introduce a new option to NMSettingIpConfig. The new option is ternary
type being the default value set to disabled. When enabled,
NetworkManager will instruct the DHCP client to send RELEASE message
when IP addresses are being removed.
The argument might imply that when set to FALSE, the dhcp client won't
send a RELEASE message. This won't be true with the new
dhcp-send-release option that is going to be introduced.
Instead, change the name to "force_release", when set to TRUE it means
we are sending a RELEASE message even if not indicated by the user. When
set to FALSE, it will be up to the user.
When a generic connection has a custom device-handler, it always
generates a NMDeviceGeneric, even when the link that gets created is
of a type natively supported by NM. On service restart, we need to
keep track that the device is generic or otherwise a different device
type will be instantiated.
(cherry picked from commit f2613be150)
If the device-handler of the generic connection is set, the connection
is virtual and the device is created by invoking the device-handler
via NetworkManager-dispatcher service.
With this change, a generic device now represents two different device
classes:
- existing interfaces that are not natively supported or recognized
by NetworkManager. Those devices have the `has_device_handler`
property set to FALSE;
- interfaces that are created by NM by invoking the device-handler;
they have `has_device_handler` set to TRUE.
