We have a cache for sysctl values, so that we can log changes and
previous values.
When resetting the log level, we prune that cache, which is done by
_nm_logging_clear_platform_logging_cache(). That function is called
by nm_logging_setup(), which is guaranteed to only happen on the main
thread.
NMPlatform in general is not thread safe (meaning, that the same NMPlatform
instance cannot be used by multiple threads at the same time). There is however
a reasonable aim that you could use different NMPlatform instances on their
own threads.
That currently doesn't work, mainly due to nm-logging which always must
be done from the main thread -- unless we would set NM_THREAD_SAFE_ON_MAIN_THREAD
in all of NMPlatform (which would be too expensive for something we
don't actually need). That means also the sysctl getter must only be
called on the main thread an all was good already.
Still, we could have NMPlatform usable from multiple thread by setting
NM_THREAD_SAFE_ON_MAIN_THREAD. As we are almost there to have the code
thread-safe, make accessing the sysctl value cache thread-safe (even if
we currently don't actually access it from multiple thread).
The idea of NM_G_MUTEX_LOCKED() macro is not only to register a mutex
for unlocking (via nm_auto_unlock_g_mutex) but also to lock it at
the same time.
That is a useful helper macro. If you have to lock the mutex yourself,
it makes usage less convenient. At which point you don't need the macro
anymore and you should instead take full control and lock/unlock yourself.
Fix the macro and change behavior. The macro was not used so far, so
it's not a problem.

In core, NMPlatform is (also) a singleton instance. As we will move platform code
to libnm-platform, this singleton part makes no sense there. Move the code
to NetworkManagerUtils.c.
It is a bit odd to do this, because usually libnm-glib-aux is not
about network related stuff. But that is not true entirely, because
it also contains NMIPAddr and other related helper funcitons.
NMLinkType is only a plain enum, there is no logic beyond it.
As such, I think it's acceptable to move it here.
There reason to do this, is that I want to move NMUtilsIPv6IfaceId and
nm_utils_get_ipv6_interface_identifier() out of src/core/, and since
that API is also trival helpers without complex state, it fits to
libnm-glib-aux. As such, we will need also NMLinkType there.
NMSettingWirelessWakeOnWLan is public API of libnm/libnm-core
in "src/libnm-core-public/"
We want that libnm-platform is independet of libnm-core to keep
the dependencies smaller and code better separated. Hence we
cannot use that enum there.
Duplicate NMSettingWirelessWakeOnWLan as _NMSettingWirelessWakeOnWLan
in libnm-base.
With systemd-resolved, NetworkManager considers `/etc/resolv.conf`
unmanaged. This breaks hostname lookups in a subtle way: when a new
connection comes online, NM will initiate the hostname lookup *before*
propagating DNS updates to systemd-resolved, which of course will cause
the request to fail. And because NM doesn't update `/etc/resolv.conf`,
it doesn't emit a `CONFIG_CHANGED` signal which would've restarted the
lookup.
Fix this by emitting a signal also when using a caching DNS plugin.

We no longer define G_LOG_DOMAIN differently for the libraries and
applications. Instead, the use now all "nm".
However, that also changes the syslog identifier for NetworkManager
core. That is undesirable. Change it back to "NetworkManager".
