It is very uncommon that a user provides explicit SSIDs to scan.
So, most of the time there is nothing to do here.
(cherry picked from commit d9740d108d)
Only _scan_request_ssids_track() adds elements to the list, and that already
trims the list to a maxium length. In all other cases, we never expect a need
to trim the list.

We make decisions based on the timestamp. We should only fetch the timestamp
once, and make consistent decisions about that. Don't read different timestamps.
(cherry picked from commit a0e115cb44)
While we are not activated, there is less need to rate limit the scan
requests to 8 seconds. Only rate limit the requests for 1.5 seconds
in that case.
Also, when changing the MAC address, supplicant flushes the AP list.
We should be able to scan right away. Reset the counters for the rate
limiting and periodic scanning.
(cherry picked from commit 12a54a44f8)
As far as NMSupplicantInterface is concerned, don't clamp the
max-scan-ssids to 5. We should track the real value that wpa_supplicant
announces, and it's up to the caller to provide fewer SSIDs.
In particular, we want to limit the number of hidden SSIDs that we
accept from connection profiles, but we don't want to limit the number
of active scans via `nmcli device wifi rescan ssid $SSID [...]`.
(cherry picked from commit c9ae23af5e)
Handling the scanning is complicated.
- we want to have periodic scans. But only at certain times,
and with an increasing back off timeout.
- the user can initiate explicit scans via D-Bus. Thereby a list
of SSIDs scan be provided.
- if there are any hidden Wi-Fi profiles configured, we want
to explicitly scan for their SSIDs.
- explicit scans are not possible at any time. But we should not reject
the scan request, but instead remember to scan later, when possible.
This is a heavy rework. It also aims to fix issues of scanning since
the recent rework of supplicant handling in commit b83f07916a
('supplicant: large rework of wpa_supplicant handling') that can render
Wi-Fi scanning broken.

We commonly use already seconds and milliseconds scales for computing timeouts.
Reduce the number of difference scales and don't also use minutes.

GObject signals only complicate the code and are less efficient.
Also, NM_DEVICE_AUTH_REQUEST signal really invoked an asynchronous
request. Of course, fundamentally emitting a signal *is* the same as
calling a method. However, implementing this as signal is really not
nice nor best practice. For one, there is a (negligible) overhead emitting
a GObject signal. But what is worse, GObject signals are not as strongly
typed and make it harder to understand what happens.
The signal had the appearance of providing some special decoupling of
NMDevice and NMManager. Of course, in practice, they were not more
decoupled (both forms are the same in nature), but it was harder to
understand how they work together.
Add and call a method nm_manager_device_auth_request() instead. This
has the notion of invoking an asynchronous method. Also, never invoke
the callback synchronously and provide a cancellable. Like every asynchronous
operation, it *must* be cancellable, and callers should make sure to
provide a mechanism to abort.
(cherry picked from commit b50702775f)
It's about as complicated to track a CList as it is to track
an allocated array. The latter requires fewer allocations and
has better locality. That makes it preferable.
(cherry picked from commit d935692bc7)
We want that our asynchronous operations are cancellable.
In fact, NMAuthChain is already (manually) cancellable by the
user calling nm_auth_chain_destroy(). However, sometimes we have a
GCancellable at hand, so the callers would have to register to the
cancellable themselves.
Instead, support setting a cancellable to the NMAuthChain, that aborts
the request and invokes the callback.
It does so always on an idle handler. Also, the user may only set the
cancellable once, and only before starting the first call.
(cherry picked from commit ef7fd9e4e3)
NMDevice already has access to the NMSettings singleton. It is permissible that
NMDevice *knows* about NMManager. The current alternative is emitting GObject signals
like NM_DEVICE_AUTH_REQUEST, pretending that NMDevice and NMManager would be completely
independent, or that there could be anybody else handling the request aside NMManager.
No, NMManager and NMDevice may know each other and refer to each other. Just like
NMDevice also knows and refers to NMSettings.

The Station.ConnectHiddenNetwork will provision a network in the iwd
known-networks list. This should allow us to later use the
Network.Connect interface to connect in the future.
(Note: Attempts to use Station.ConnectHiddenNetwork on already provisioned
networks, i.e. networks iwd knows about, will fail.)
This commit squashed several fixups made by thaller.
(cherry picked from commit 69aeed4bdc)
Newer versions of iwd has supported connecting to hidden networks for a
while now. There's a separate "connect-hidden" command in iwctl that
needs to be used instead of the regular "connect" command.
The equivalent on dbus is to use ConnectHiddenNetwork instead of
Connect on the Station interface. NetworkManager however uses the
Network interface and given we the explicit SSID usage we can connect
to hidden networks with that.
This change disabled the explicit check that disallows even attempting
hidden networks when using iwd.
This has been tested to work with a previously known hidden network.
Tests connecting to a previously unknown network has failed.

If a device only has an IPv6 link-local address, we don't generate an
assumed connection. Therefore, when a new slave connection (without IP
configuration) is activated on the device, we don't deactivate any
existing connection and the link-local address remains configured.
The IP configuration of an activated slave should be predictable and
not depend on the previous state; let's flush addresses and routes on
activation.

I find it simpler to follow the pattern of checking conditions and
"erroring out", by going to the next entry. The entire loop already
behaves like that.
(cherry picked from commit f89b841b37)
While we request a scan, we are not yet actually scanning. That means, the supplicant's
"scanning" property will only change to TRUE a while after we initiate the scan. It may
even never happen.
We thus need to handle that the request is currently pending and react when the
request completes.
(cherry picked from commit 16c1869476)
Add nm_utils_invoke_on_timeout() beside nm_utils_invoke_on_idle().
They are fundamentally similar, except one schedules an idle handler
and the other a timeout.
Also, use the current g_main_context_get_thread_default() as context
instead of the singleton instance. That is a change in behavior, but
the only caller of nm_utils_invoke_on_idle() is the daemon, which
doesn't use different main contexts. Anyway, to avoid anybody being
tripped up by this also change the order of arguments. It anyway
seems nicer to first pass the cancellable, and the callback and user
data as last arguments. It's more in line with glib's asynchronous
methods.
Also, in the unlikely case that the cancellable is already cancelled
from the start, always schedule an idle action to complete fast.
(cherry picked from commit cd5157a0c3)
The profile's "ipv4.gateway" and "ipv6.gateway" has only one real
purpose: to define the next hop of a static default route.
Usually, when specifying a gateway in this way, the default route from
other addressing methods (like DHCPv4 or IPv6 autoconf) gets ignored.
If you have a WireGuard peer with "AllowedIPs=0.0.0.0/0" and
"wireguard.peer-routes" enabled, NetworkManager would automatically add
a route to the peer. Previously, if the user also set a gateway, that
route was suppressed.
That doesn't feel right. Note that configuring a gateway on a WireGuard
profile is likely to be wrong to begin with. At least, unless you take
otherwise care to avoid routing loops. If you take care, setting a
gateway may work, but it would feel clearer to instead just add an
explicit /0 manual route instead.
Also, note that usually you don't need a gateway anyway. WireGuard is a
Layer 3 (IP) tunnel, where the next hop is alway just the other side of
the tunnel. The next hop has little effect on the routes that you
configure on a WireGuard interface. What however matters is whether a
default route is present or not.
Also, an explicit gateway probably works badly with "ipv[46].ip4-auto-default-route",
because in that case the automatism should add a /0 peer-route route in a
separate routing table. The explicit gateway interferes with that too.
Nonetheless, without this patch it's not obvious why the /0 peer
route gets suppressed when a gateway is set. Don't allow for that, and
always add the peer-route.
Probably the profile's gateway setting is still wrong and causes the
profile not to work. But at least, you see all routes configured, and
it's clearer where the (wrong) default route to the gateway comes from.

When the server is restarted the write to unix socket fails with
EPIPE. In such case, don't fail all the calls in queue; instead, after
a sync of the ovsdb state (through a monitor call), start processing
the queue again, including the call that previously failed.
Add a retry counter to avoid that calls are stuck in the queue forever
in a hypothetical scenario in which the write always fails.
