Use the new NMConnection 'changed' signal to mark connections
as dirty/unsaved, and reset that when they get flushed to disk.
Previously, the 'Updated' signal was emitted only when the
connection was changed and flushed to disk, but now we have
more granular needs, and the signal is emitted whenever the
connection actually *is* changed, regardless of whether its
flushed to disk or not.
If a kernel interface changes its MAC address, and NM is not
supposed to manage that interface, ifupdown needs to notice
that MAC address change and tell NM that the unmanaged devices
have changed, so that NM continues to not touch the device
after the MAC has changed.
well_known_interfaces -> eni_ifaces, since it's a hash of any
interfaces read from /etc/network/interfaces.
well_known_ifaces -> kernel_ifaces, since it's a hash of any
network subsystem interface the kernel knows about
'iface_connections' is really the list of all NMIfupdownConnections
known to the plugin, read from /e/n/i and hashed by block name. Since
ifupdown doesn't store anything *except* connections from /e/n/i,
just rename it to 'connections' to reduce confusion with the
well_known_interfaces and well_known_ifaces hashes.
Although having different parts of NM in different subdirectories
keeps the source tree neat, it has made the build messy, particularly
because of cross-dependencies between the subdirs.
Reorganize to build all of the pieces of the NetworkManager binary
from src/Makefile, and only use recursive make for test programs,
helper binaries, and plugins.
As part of this, get rid of all the per-directory convenience
libraries, and switch to building a single top-level
libNetworkManager.la, containing everything except main.c, which all
of the test programs can then link against.
Settings with all-default values are not written to reduce
complexity of the keyfile (and be more human-readable friendly)
and that includes VLAN settings with a VLAN ID of zero. So
when reading this file back, if there is no 'base type' setting
(eg, the setting specified by the connection::type property)
then just add that setting. nm_connection_verify() will catch
cases where an empty 'base type' setting is invalid.
Add these aliases for the setting names '802-3-ethernet',
'802-11-wireless', and '802-11-wireless-security' and write them by
default. It's much friendlier for administrators to type, and a lot
less ugly.
Also works for:
[connection]
type=ethernet
test-keyfile.c: In function 'test_read_string_ssid':
test-keyfile.c:1154:51: error: argument to 'sizeof' in 'memcmp' call is the
same expression as the second source; did you mean to provide an explicit
length? [-Werror=sizeof-pointer-memaccess]
ASSERT (memcmp (array->data, expected_ssid, sizeof (expected_ssid)) == 0,
Add some new API to NMConfig so that NMSettings and its plugins can
use NMConfig to look up values rather than reparsing the config file
themselves.
Also, move the no-auto-default cache from NetworkManager.conf to
$NMSTATEDIR/no-auto-default.state, so NM isn't rewriting its own
config file at runtime.
STP defaults to yes in NetworkManager (and the initscripts), so a missing
STP value in an ifcfg file means yes/on. Calling svSetValue(STP, NULL)
clears that line from the ifcfg, and thus STP gets interpreted as yes.
Explicitly set stp to "no" so that the value actually gets saved.
Just code cleanup: This is much less error-prone than manual nesting,
and will mesh very well with future changes to use the libgsystem
cleanup macros.
Avoid warnings about GValueArray being deprecated by adding macros
that wrap G_GNUC_BEGIN_IGNORE_DEPRECATIONS /
G_GNUC_END_IGNORE_DEPRECATIONS around the GValueArray calls.
For settings corresponding to devices that have a :carrier property
(ie bond, bridge, infiniband, vlan, and wired), add a :carrier-detect
property specifying how that affects the connection:
yes: The connection can only be activated when the device
has carrier, and will be deactivated if the device loses
carrier (for more than 4 seconds).
no: The connection ignores carrier on the device; it can be
activated when there is no carrier, and stays activated
when carrier is lost.
on-activate: The connection can only be activated when the
device has carrier, but it will not be deactivated if the
device loses carrier.

GObject creation cannot normally fail, except for types that implement
GInitable and take a GError in their _new() method. Some NM types
override constructor() and return NULL in some cases, but these
generally only happen in the case of programmer error (eg, failing to
set a mandatory property), and so crashing is reasonable (and most
likely inevitable anyway).
So, remove all NULL checks after calls to g_object_new() and its
myriad wrappers.

g_malloc(), etc, never return NULL, by API contract. Likewise, by
extension, no other glib function ever returns NULL due to lack of
memory. So remove lots of unnecessary checks (the vast majority of
which would have immediately crashed had they ever run anyway, since
g_set_error(), g_warning(), and nm_log_*() all need to allocate
memory).

Allows to attach any connection to a bridge using the BRIDGE= key.
IP configuration is optional for bridge components but not
prohibited. Test case included.
Can't leave the backup files lying around when doing 'make distcheck',
so when backup up a file, return the backup file path so that the
caller can (optionally) remove it.
If the certificate path from the supplicant config is not absolute,
we need to make it absolute. When building with a different builddir,
the certificate from the supplicant config is actually in the srcdir,
but the builddir is the current PWD.
This patch makes DHCPv6 support more or less equivalent to that
one of IPv4 DHCP.
(dcbw: fix some formatting, rearrange code so it's less convoluted,
fix up writing hostname to ifcfg files)
Use --enable-doc and --enable-tests instead of --with-docs and
--with-tests. This is consistent with other features and with
--enable-gtk-doc option. Support current variants as fallback.
Don't build tests unless --enable-tests is specified.
