If DHCPv4 fails but IPv6 succeeds it makes sense to continue trying
DHCP so that we will eventually be able to get an address if the DHCP
server comes back. Always keep the client running; it will be only
terminated when the connection is brought down.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1688329
In the accept() callback, the nettools client creates a UDP socket
with the received address as source, so the address must be already
configured on the interface.
Also, handle errors returned by nm_dhcp_client_accept().

FT-SAE is missing in the supplicant configuration verification list,
causing an activation failure when using SAE and the supplicant
supports FT.
Fixes: d17a0a0905 ('supplicant: allow fast transition for WPA-PSK and WPA-EAP')
Drop it from the functions for extracting the dhcp options from the
lease: it was just used for the logging, but now we log all the options
once, at the end of the process.
Each plugin logged the options: just do that on dhcp state change and do
in common code.
Log the options at INFO level for all the plugins. This partially reverts
the effects on the internal plugin of the commit:
97ce488f5f ('dhcp/internal: decrease logging level when
retrieving dhcp options')
This adds capability to hand over the network configuration from
OpenFirmware (and potentially other boot loaders with openfirmware
support such as U-Boot) to NetworkManager.
It's done analogously to ACPI/iBFT. In fact, the same ip=ibft command
line option is used, adding a more general ip=fw alias. This probably
deserves some documentation, but I'm not adding any at this time.

There's multiple things wrong there, but unnoticed because the error handling
was entirely missing or nobody is using thie anymore.
The Mesh ID needs to be set while the device is down. Also, the channel
needs to be set last, because that's what triggers the connection
attempt. For that the device needs to be up.
Also, fix the error handling.
The comment is wrong. Since 6eaded9071 ('device: add
get_autoconnect_allowed() virtual function'), get_autoconnect_allowed()
is called before the device state is consulted.
Use the same format of systemd-netword, so that we will be compatible
with the leases created/read by the current "internal" plugin.
Note that actually only the leased address is processed when reading a
lease file, so no need to save more than the ip address when saving the
lease.
For each plugin we try to come up with a lease file constructed in the
same way, i.e., plugin name + iface + connection duid. If the file isn't
already there, for some plugins (dhclient) we do extra checks in order
to allow to use lease files generated outside of NetworkManager. Let's
allow to generate the common NetworkManager dhcp lease file name in a
shared function, reporting to the caller if the file isn't already there,
so that further plugin specific checks can be performed if needed.
All D-Bus method call implementations use similar error messages when
authenticating requests; add defines for them to ensure the same exact
message is reused.
These are deprecated. Also, they are nowadays implemented as macros
that expand to
#define g_main_run(loop) g_main_loop_run(loop) GLIB_DEPRECATED_MACRO_IN_2_26_FOR(g_main_loop_run)
This can cause compilation failure (in some environments).
system_create_virtual_device() first creates the device (unrealized)
and then, if there a connection for the device with autoconnect=yes,
creates the backing resources. If this last step fails the device
should continue to exist, even if in an unrealized state.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1686634
The nm-owned flag indicates whether the device was created by NM. If
the realization step fails, the device was not created and so nm-owned
should not be updated.
When the master AC becomes ready, activate_stage1_device_prepare() is
called in a idle handler. If the master AC fails in the meantime, it
will change state to deactivating or deactivated. We must check for
that condition before proceeding with slave activation. Note the the
'master_ready' flag of an AC is never cleared after it is set.
Fixes: 5b677d5a3b ('device: move check for master from nm_device_activate_schedule_stage2_device_config() to end of stage1')

With accept_ra set to 1, kernel sends its own router solicitation
messages and parses the advertisements. This duplicates what NM
already does in userspace and has unwanted consequences like [1] and
[2].
The only reason why accept_ra was re-enabled in the past was to apply
RA parameters like ReachableTime and RetransTimer [3]; but now NM
supports them and so accept_ra can be turned off again.
Also, note that previously the option was set in
addrconf6_start_with_link_ready(), and so this was done only when the
method was 'auto'. Instead, now we clear it for all methods except
'ignore'.

IPv6 router advertisement messages contain the following parameters
(RFC 4861):
- Reachable time: 32-bit unsigned integer. The time, in
milliseconds, that a node assumes a neighbor is reachable after
having received a reachability confirmation. Used by the Neighbor
Unreachability Detection algorithm. A value of zero means
unspecified (by this router).
- Retrans Timer: 32-bit unsigned integer. The time, in milliseconds,
between retransmitted Neighbor Solicitation messages. Used by
address resolution and the Neighbor Unreachability Detection
algorithm. A value of zero means unspecified (by this router).
Currently NM ignores them; however, since it leaves accept_ra=1, the
kernel parses RAs and applies those parameters for us [1].
In the next commit kernel handling of RAs will be disabled, so let NM
set those neighbor-related parameters.

Note that by now no callers of nm_device_activate_schedule_stage2_device_config()
are left. All previous callers now re-schedule stage1 instead of directly
scheduling stage2.
Note that if stage2 later also gets re-factored to re-enter itself
instead of scheduling stage3 right away, the function will be used
again.
That means, we can move the check for the master where it belongs: as
part (and at the end of) stage1.
Also, slightly simplify the code. The handler master_ready_cb()
no longer directly calls master_ready(). It's enough to always
enter stage1 again.
Also drop master_ready_handled. We don't need to remember that this
condition was satsified. We can just check it always when we reach
the place in activate_stage1_device_prepare().
I am about to change the when stage1 gets postponed, then the way to
proceed it is to schedule stage1 again (instead of scheduling stage2).
The reason is that stage1 handling should be reentrant and we should
keep entering it until there is no more reason to postpone it. If
a subclass postpones stage1 and then later progresses it by directly
scheduling stage2, then only the subclass is in control over postponing
stage 2.
Instead, anybody should be able to delay stage2 independently. That can
only work if everybody signals readyness to proceed by scheduling stage1
again.
