Port libnm-core/libnm to GDBus.
The NetworkManager daemon continues to use dbus-glib; the
previously-added connection hash/variant conversion methods are now
moved to NetworkManagerUtils (along with a few other utilities that
are now only needed by the daemon code).
In preparation for porting to GDBus, make nm_connection_to_dbus(),
etc, represent connections as GVariants of type 'a{sa{sv}}' rather
than as GHashTables-of-GHashTables-of-GValues.
This means we're constantly converting back and forth internally, but
this is just a stepping stone on the way to the full GDBus port, and
all of that code will go away again later.
Instead of creating it in NMSettings, where we must use
NM_IS_DEVICE_ETHERNET() (not NM_DEVICE_TYPE_ETHERNET because various generic
devices masquerade as NM_DEVICE_TYPE_ETHERNET too), push knowledge
of which device types create default wired connections into the device
types themselves. This solves a problem with testcases where
libNetworkManager.a (which testcases link to) requires the symbol
nm_type_device_ethernet().
Make all mac-address properties (including NMSettingBluetooth:bdaddr,
NMSettingOlpcMesh:dhcp-anycast-addr, and NMSettingWireless:bssid) be
strings, using _nm_setting_class_transform_property() to handle
translating to/from binary form when dealing with D-Bus.
Update everything accordingly for the change, and also add a test for
transformed setting properties to test-general.
Rename nm_connection_to_hash() to nm_connection_to_dbus(), and
nm_connection_new_from_hash() to nm_connection_new_from_dbus(). In
addition to clarifying that this is specifically the D-Bus
serialization format, these names will also work better in the
GDBus-based future where the serialization format is GVariant, not
GHashTable.
Also, move NMSettingHashFlags to nm-connection.h, and rename it
NMConnectionSerializationFlags.
The fact that NMRemoteConnection has to be an NMConnection and
therefore can't be an NMObject means that it needs to reimplement bits
of NMObject functionality (and likewise NMObject needs some special
magic to deal with it). Likewise, we will need a daemon-side
equivalent of NMObject as part of the gdbus port, and we would want
NMSettingsConnection to be able to inherit from this as well.
Solve this problem by making NMConnection into an interface, and
having NMRemoteConnection and NMSettingsConnection implement it. (We
use some hacks to keep the GHashTable of NMSettings objects inside
nm-connection.c rather than having to be implemented by the
implementations.)
Since NMConnection is no longer an instantiable type, this adds
NMSimpleConnection to replace the various non-D-Bus-based uses of
NMConnection throughout the code. nm_connection_new() becomes
nm_simple_connection_new(), nm_connection_new_from_hash() becomes
nm_simple_connection_new_from_hash(), and nm_connection_duplicate()
becomes nm_simple_connection_new_clone().
nm_connection_lookup_setting_type() and
nm_connection_lookup_setting_type_by_quark() have nothing to do with
NMConnection. So move them to NMSetting (and rename them to
nm_setting_lookup_type() and nm_setting_lookup_type_by_quark()).
Now that we have nm_utils_hwaddr_matches() for comparing addresses
(even when one is a string and the other binary), there are now places
where it's more convenient to store hardware addresses as strings
rather than binary, since we want them in string form for most
non-comparison purposes. So update for that.
In particular, this also changes nm_device_get_hw_address() to return
a string.
Also, simplify the update_permanent_hw_address() implementations by
assuming that they will only be called once. (Since they will.)
Add nm_utils_hwaddr_matches(), for comparing hardware addresses for
equality, allowing either binary or ASCII hardware addresses to be
passed, and handling the special rules for InfiniBand hardware
addresses automatically. Update code to use it.
"NetworkManager.h"'s name (and non-standard capitalization) suggest
that it's some sort of high-level super-important header, but it's
really just low-level D-Bus stuff. Rename it to "nm-dbus-interface.h"
and likewise "NetworkManagerVPN.h" to "nm-vpn-dbus-interface.h"
Most D-Bus interface name macros used "INTERFACE" in their name (eg,
NM_DBUS_INTERFACE), but a few used "IFACE" instead (eg,
NM_DBUS_IFACE_SETTINGS). Make them consistent.
GLib/Gtk have mostly settled on the convention that two-letter
acronyms in type names remain all-caps (eg, "IO"), but longer acronyms
become initial-caps-only (eg, "Tcp").
NM was inconsistent, with most long acronyms using initial caps only
(Adsl, Cdma, Dcb, Gsm, Olpc, Vlan), but others using all caps (DHCP,
PPP, PPPOE, VPN). Fix libnm and src/ to use initial-caps only for all
three-or-more-letter-long acronyms (and update nmcli and nmtui for the
libnm changes).
NMConfigDevice was added because in the 0.9.8 days, when each subdir
of src/ was compiled separately, it was impossible to make src/config/
depend on src/devices/ because of circular dependencies.
Since now everything gets compiled into a single libNetworkManager.la,
this is no longer a problem, and so NMConfigDevice is just an
unnecessary complication.
Clean up some of the cross-includes between headers (which made it so
that, eg, if you included NetworkManagerUtils.h in a test program, you
would need to build the test with -I$(top_srcdir)/src/platform, and if
you included nm-device.h you'd need $(POLKIT_CFLAGS)) by moving all
GObject struct definitions for src/ and src/settings/ into nm-types.h
(which already existed to solve the NMDevice/NMActRequest circular
references).
Update various .c files to explicitly include the headers they used to
get implicitly, and remove some now-unnecessary -I options from
Makefiles.
This functionality is now provided by nm_connection_normalize().
Contrary to nm_utils_normalize_connection(), nm_connection_normalize()
is in libnm-util and available to clients as well.

impl_settings_get_connection_by_uuid() was changed from a synchronous
function to an asynchronous one. Thereby the @out_object_path argument
was forgotten, leaving the function completely broken.
This bug has the potential to crash NetworkManager.

Remove all remaining GParamSpec name and blurb strings (and fix
indentation while we're there), and add G_PARAM_STATIC_STRINGS to all
paramspecs that were lacking it.
When assuming the connections on restart we want to prefer more-recently-used
connections. That's why we have to sort connections according to timestamps in
descending order. That means connections used more recently (higher timestamp)
go before connections with lower timestamp.

While this function only returns the path of the requested connection
(the actual settings are always protected), callers that aren't in
the connection's ACL still probably shouldn't get that, if only to
be pedantic.
NMSettings (and NMConnectionProvider) had a signal to indicate when it
had loaded the connections, but in reality this always happened before
nm_settings_new() returned (as a side effect of calling
unmanaged_specs_changed()) and so no one else would ever actually see
the signal. So just kill it.
When generating a connection, if the device has no non-link-local IPv6
address, then it's unclear whether (a) the connection was link-local
originally, or (b) the connection was 'auto' but IPv6 failed or timed
out.
In this case, if there is a persistent connection that is 'auto' but
the generated connection is 'link-local', the persistent connection
should be used.
Add a more-testable framework for doing the connection matching to
handle this.
Rather than explicitly passing around a UID and a flag saying whether
or not it's relevant.
(This also fixes a bug where the wrong UID was being recorded in
nm-settings-connection.c::auth_start(), which caused problems such as
agent-owned secrets not getting saved because of a perceived UID
mismatch.)
Previously, the default wired connection was removed on quit when the
device was cleaned up. This is inconsistent with other connections.
Leave the default wired connection up when quitting to fix this
inconsistency.
This allows default wired connections to be assumed when NM starts.
Changing the default wired connection has always deleted the connection
(thus disconnecting the interface) and re-added it as a settings plugin
connection. That was always sub-optimal, but until the 'unsaved' connection
stuff landed this summer, we couldn't do anything about that. Clean
that all up, adding the connection as an unsaved connection right from
the start, which allows changes to the connection without having to
delete and recreate it, thus preventing disconnection of any interface
that is using the connection.
A new signal is added to NMSettingsConnection that is only emitted when
the connection is changed from D-Bus (thus indicating an explicit user-
requested change) since the connection may be modified internally by
NetworkManager. NM-triggered changes should not result in the connection
no longer being a default-wired connection.

Do some minimal verification of hostnames that come in via D-Bus, for
length and content. Otherwise we'd get as far as asking glibc to set
the system hostname, which would reject us.
In Fedora, OVS ports are now identified in ifcfg files as
"TYPE=OVSPort", which NM doesn't recognize, and so it would ignore
those ifcfg files. Unfortunately, this meant that if auto-default
wasn't disabled, and there was no other configuration defined for the
device, then NM would create an NMDefaultWiredConnection for it and
screw things up.
So, add an "unrecognized-specs" settings plugin property, which allows
a plugin to indicate to NetworkManager that it knows of some
non-NetworkManager-supported connection defined for a device. This
will suppress default-wired connection creation for that device,
similar to the "no-auto-default" config file option, but determined by
the plugin instead of by manual configuration. Devices listed in
unrecognized-specs may still be managed by NetworkManager, unless they
are also listed in unmanaged-specs.

When freeing one of the collections such as GArray, GPtrArray, GSList,
etc. it is common that the items inside the connections must be
freed/unrefed too.
The previous code often iterated over the collection first with
e.g. g_ptr_array_foreach and passing e.g. g_free as GFunc argument.
For one, this has the problem, that g_free has a different signature
GDestroyNotify then the expected GFunc. Moreover, this can be
simplified either by setting a clear function
(g_ptr_array_set_clear_func) or by passing the destroy function to the
free function (g_slist_free_full).

Make sure that all connections returned from NMSettings or created via
AddAndActivateConnection have an NMSettingIP4Config and an
NMSettingIP6Config, with non-NULL methods, and get rid of
now-unnecessary checks for those.
Also move the slaves-can't-have-IP-config checks into the
platform-independent code as well. This also gets rid of spurious
"ignoring IP4/IP6 configuration" warnings in ifcfg-rh when reading a
slave ifcfg file.
Partly based on a patch from Pavel.

Add a "monitor-connection-files" config option, which can be set to
"false" to disable automatic reloading of connections on file change.
To go with this, add a new ReloadConnections method on
o.fd.NM.Settings that can be used to manually reload connections, and
add an nm-cli command to call it.
