Instead of setting multiple callbacks, just let the user set one
vtable with callbacks. Usually, GObject would implement this via
signals. While that makes sense for public objects, for example to
work better with GIR and allow intercepting the signal, this is
overkill for our internal type. And NMPolkitListener already did
not make use of signals, for good reason.
Instead of passing multiple callbacks, must pass one structure with
callback pointers.
Also, extend the signature of the callbacks to always contain a
@self argument and a @user_data.
Some cleanup of the includes. For example, immediately after
"nm-default.h" include the header file for the current source.
Also, move the use of the "#if WITH_POLKIT_AGENT" conditionals
closer together. E.g. don't use the #if in "nmcli.h".
Add a new 'overview' command line option to make the output more
compact and display only properties that have non-default
values. Currently the option has only effect for the "connection show
$CON" sub-command.
$ nmcli -o connection show wifi-home
connection.id: wifi-home
connection.uuid: 8308c425-f2a7-4021-9afc-37bde7253c6d
connection.type: 802-11-wireless
connection.timestamp: 1519264421
connection.permissions: user:me

Add a new a new field to enum type descriptors that specify a list of
nicks valid only for getter functions. It is useful when the get
function must return a string different from the enum nick and that
string can't be used to set a value.
Use the same form everywhere: "TRANSLATORS" instead of "Translators".
The manual also seems to prefer the upper-case form [1].
$ sed 's/\<Translators\>: /TRANSLATORS: /g' $(git grep -l Translators) -i

There are multiple tests with the same in different directories; add a
unique prefix to test names so that it is clear from the output which
one is running.
If an operation is cancelled through the GCancellable, then the idiom is
that the operation is always cancelled, even if it has finished
successfully. To ensure this is the case, add calls to
g_simple_async_result_set_check_cancellable everywhere.
Without this, e.g. gnome-control-center will crash when switching away
from the power panel quickly, as the NMClient creation finishes
asynchronously and g-c-c assume that G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED is returned to
ensure it doesn't access the now invalid user_data parameter.

I find very annoying to have to remember the numeric value of secret
flags or have to look them up in the manual every time. Accept the
textual version as well and add support for auto-completion.
$ nmcli con modify c 802-11-wireless-security.psk-flags not-required
$ nmcli con modify c 802-11-wireless-security.psk-flags <TAB>
agent-owned none not-required not-saved
Let the matching continue when we are autocompleting arguments and we
have already found 'id', 'uuid' or 'path'.
Before:
# nmcli connection modify path<TAB>
path
After:
# nmcli connection modify path<TAB>
path
pathfinder-wifi
'help' is completed without considering other alternatives:
# nmcli connection modify h<TAB>
help
After the patch:
# nmcli connection modify h<TAB>
help
home-wifi

It looks bad and makes everyone super-sad:
$ nmcli --ask c modify 'Oracle HQ' 802-11-wireless-security.psk solaris666
System policy prevents modification of network settings for all users
(action_id: org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.settings.modify.system)
Password (lkundrak): *********
$
With --ask it might call back to nmcli's agent, causing a deadlock
while the client is waiting for the response. Let's give the client
a chance to service the agent requests while waiting:
$ nmcli --ask --show-secrets c show 'Oracle HQ'
<hang>
This is probably still rather suboptimal and inefficient, since we
still serialize the calls and block on response. However, if we submit
multiple calls to GetSecrets, the daemon would start authorizing the
first one and fail the other ones immediately before the authorization
succeeds.
This could perhaps be addressed in the daemon, but let's settle for a
fix that's compatible with the current daemon for now.
Substrings matching the heading of valid values were allowed if not
ambiguous (e.g.: "et" for "eth"). Moreover, upper case variants were
accepted too.
Do a plain string comparison check against the valid values.
Improve also the error message: give a list of valid tx-hashes.
when input matched the heading of two allowed values the match was
reported as ambiguous without checking if there was a perfect match
following: fixed.
Example of a failing input:
const char **allowed = [ "ipv4, ipv6, ip" ];
const char *input = "ip";
"ip" was detected as ambiguous.
GCC 8.0's -Wcast-function-type objects casting function pointers to ones
with incompatible prototypes. Sometimes we do that on purpose though.
Notably, the g_source_set_callback()'s func argument can point to functions
of various prototypes. Also, libnm-glib/nm-remote-connection is perhaps
just not worth reworking, that would just be a waste of time.
A cast to void(*)(void) avoids the GCC warning, let's use it.
We commonly only allow tabs at the beginning of a line, not
afterwards. The reason for this style is so that the code
looks formated right with tabstop=4 and tabstop=8.
Hook the signal handlers right before the main loop. Prior to that
the default handlers are good enough and our one crashes (due to
loop being instantialized).
Also, set the return value properly to indicate a termination by a
signal.
Similarly to what systemd-resolved does, introduce the concept of
"routing" domain, which is a domain in the search list that is used
only to decide the interface over which a query must be forwarded, but
is not used to complete unqualified host names. Routing domains are
those starting with a tilde ('~') before the actual domain name.
Domains without the initial tilde are used both for completing
unqualified names and for the routing decision.
The `settings-docs.c` file is generated by processing the
`nm-property-docs.xml` file. Although this works in autotools,
the `.c` extension makes meson not to handle it properly.
Given the fact that it only contains a number of defines it
makes sense to change its extension to `.h` an use it as a header.
This also makes meson to handle it properly and build it before
its used.

We also unconditionally use them with autotools.
Also, the detection for have_version_script does
not seem correct to me. At least, it didn't work
with clang.
The strings holding the names used for libraries have also been
moved to different variables. This way they would be less error
as these variables can be reused easily and any typing error
would be quickly detected.
Some targets are missing dependencies on some generated sources in
the meson port. These makes the build to fail due to missing source
files on a highly parallelized build.
These dependencies have been resolved by taking advantage of meson's
internal dependencies which can be used to pass source files,
include directories, libraries and compiler flags.
One of such internal dependencies called `core_dep` was already in
use. However, in order to avoid any confusion with another new
internal dependency called `nm_core_dep`, which is used to include
directories and source files from the `libnm-core` directory, the
`core_dep` dependency has been renamed to `nm_dep`.
These changes have allowed minimizing the build details which are
inherited by using those dependencies. The parallelized build has
also been improved.
