NM previously only cleared secrets when the VPN service daemon quit,
and the service daemons are on a 10-second inactivity timer. So if
the user tried to re-activate the failed VPN connection within 10
seconds the old secrets would get used, which clearly isn't what we
want. Ensure that whenever the VPN connection fails or disconnects,
we ask the settings service for secrets again the next time.
NM didn't pass it to MM anyway, so it was mainly unused, but the band settings
were still wrong. Fix that (and still preserve ABI) by adding a new property
for allowed bands that can actually hold all the bands instead of limiting
to 16-bits. Clean up some of the deprecation stuff at the same time to make
it clearer what's deprecated and what to do about it.
Commit 715ddd2045 broke sharing because
sometimes a multi-argument string gets passed in rule->rule. Revert
most of that commit. A bunch of cleanups by dcbw too.
Fix up refcounting, plus it turns out that we already have the MAC address
lying around as a GObject data item, so we don't need to go grab it
from the connection itself.
An ethernet device that's actually a component of a modem could get
added to the device list, but then destroyed without getting removed
from the device list.
Don't immediately tear down an active wired connection when the carrier
flips to off, but wait a few seconds for it to come back before breaking
the user's network.
This reverts commit 5b90df0737.
Since commit 71219015ea adds all the
0.7.x certificate and key functions back, we can revert the soname
change and preserve API/ABI.
Since there's a more or less direct mapping between the 0.7.x and
the 0.8.x certificate and key operations, we might as well just
deprecate them instead of removing them entirely.
In the past networkmanager did not allow to manually disconnect devices.
Manually disconnected devices will not be automatically reconnected until one
of the following events occur:
1. user activates a connection for the currently disconnected device
2. network manager awakes from hibernate/suspend
3. network manager is restarted (e.g. reboot)
Add a Disconnect method to generic NMDevice dbus interface; set a new private
autoconnect_inhibit flag if Disconnect method is called through dbus.
Based on this auto activation for devices gets inhibited until one
of the above events occur.
