It can be useful to choose a different "ipv6.addr-gen-mode". And it can be
useful to override the default for a set of profiles.
For example, in cloud or in a data center, stable-privacy might not be
the best choice. Add a mechanism to override the default via global defaults
in NetworkManager.conf:
# /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/90-ipv6-addr-gen-mode-override.conf
[connection-90-ipv6-addr-gen-mode-override]
match-device=type:ethernet
ipv6.addr-gen-mode=0
"ipv6.addr-gen-mode" is a special property, because its default depends on
the component that configures the profile.
- when read from disk (keyfile and ifcfg-rh), a missing addr-gen-mode
key means to default to "eui64".
- when configured via D-Bus, a missing addr-gen-mode property means to
default to "stable-privacy".
- libnm's ip6-config::addr-gen-mode property defaults to
"stable-privacy".
- when some tool creates a profile, they either can explicitly
set the mode, or they get the default of the underlying mechanisms
above.
- nm-initrd-generator explicitly sets "eui64" for profiles it creates.
- nmcli doesn' explicitly set it, but inherits the default form
libnm's ip6-config::addr-gen-mode.
- when NM creates a auto-default-connection for ethernet ("Wired connection 1"),
it inherits the default from libnm's ip6-config::addr-gen-mode.
Global connection defaults only take effect when the per-profile
value is set to a special default/unset value. To account for the
different cases above, we add two such special values: "default" and
"default-or-eui64". That's something we didn't do before, but it seams
useful and easy to understand.
Also, this neatly expresses the current behaviors we already have. E.g.
if you don't specify the "addr-gen-mode" in a keyfile, "default-or-eui64"
is a pretty clear thing.
Note that usually we cannot change default values, in particular not for
libnm's properties. That is because we don't serialize the default
values to D-Bus/keyfile, so if we change the default, we change
behavior. Here we change from "stable-privacy" to "default" and
from "eui64" to "default-or-eui64". That means, the user only experiences
a change in behavior, if they have a ".conf" file that overrides the default.

teamdctl_connect() has a parameter cli_type. If unspecified, the
library will try usock, dbus (if enabled) and zmq (if enabled).
Trying to use the unix socket if we expect to use D-Bus can be bad. For
example, it might cause SELinux denials.
As we anyway require libteam to use D-Bus, if D-Bus is available,
explicitly select the cli type.

We have two variants of the function: nm_utils_ip4_netmask_to_prefix()
and _nm_utils_ip4_netmask_to_prefix(). The former only exists because it
is public API in libnm. Internally, only use the latter.
The property wait-activation-delay will delay the activation of an
interface the specified amount of milliseconds. Please notice that it
could be delayed some milliseconds more due to other events in
NetworkManager.
This could be used in multiple scenarios where the user needs to define
an arbitrary delay e.g LACP bond configure where the LACP negotiation
takes a few seconds and traffic is not allowed, so they would like to
use nm-online and a setting configured with this new property to wait
some seconds. Therefore, when nm-online is finished, LACP bond should be
ready to receive traffic.
The delay will happen right before the device is ready to be activated.

When we're deactivating an externally created device that has a master
because we're activating a connection on it, actually remove the device
from the master. Otherwise unpleasant things happen:

Note the "no-config" above. We'set priv->master = NULL, but didn't
communicate the change to the platform. I believe this is not good.
This patch changes that.

Now things go south. The stage1 cleans the device up, removing it from
the master and the device itself decides it should deactivate itself
because it lots its master regardless of the fact that it should not
have one and it's in fact an unwanted carryover from previous activation.
I believe this is also wrong.

Now things are really weird. We synchronously go to config, effectively
overriding the queued deactivation. We've really messed up.
Sometimes weird things happen.
Let dummy0 be an externally created device that has a master. We decide
to activate a connection that has no master on it:

We decide to deal with this by enqueuing a deactivation. That is not
great -- we shouldn't even have had this master!
This patch takes the deactivation path only if we were willingly
enslaved to the master in question.
The @bond_mode_8023ad test has been seen failing, with a log like this:
<debug> [...3.0484] device[...] (eth1): Activation: connection 'bond0.0' master deactivated

<debug> [...3.0484] device[...] (eth1): queue-state[deactivating, reason:new-activation, id:709]: queue state change
What happened is that eth1 has been activating. It was already enslaved
to a bond and was in an ip-config state when the bond was removed.
A change to "deactivating" state has been enqueued. But then this
happened:
<trace> [...3.0942] device[...] (eth1): ip4: check-state: state done => done, is_failed=0, is_pending=0,

<debug> [...3.0943] device[...] (eth1): queue-state[deactivating, reason:new-activation, id:709]: clear queued state change
The IP config succeeded and the queued "deactivating" change was
overriden by the IP4 check result, prompting a change to "ip-check".
With the master still missing. Not good.
Let's terminate the appempts to check the IP state when we cancel the
activation, so that it doesn't override the enqueued state change.

pppd also tries to configure addresses by itself through some
ioctls. If we remove between those calls an address that was added,
pppd fails and quits.
To avoid this race condition, don't remove addresses while IPCP and
IPV6CP are running. Once pppd sends an IP configuration, it has
finished configuring the interface and we can proceed normally.

Currently we call nm_device_update_dynamic_ip_setup() in
carrier_changed() every time the carrier goes up again and the device
is activating, to kick a restart of DHCP.
Since we process link events in a idle handler, it can happen that the
handler is called only once for different events; in particular
device_link_changed() might be called once for a link-down/link-up
sequence.
carrier_changed() is "level-triggered" - it cares only about the
current carrier state. nm_device_update_dynamic_ip_setup() should
instead be "edge-triggered" - invoked every time the link goes from
down to up. We have a mechanism for that in device_link_changed(), use
it.

l3cd instances must be removed from the old l3cfg before calling
_cleanup_ip_pre(). Otherwise, _cleanup_ip_pre() unregisters them from
the device, and later _dev_l3_register_l3cds(self, l3cfg_old, FALSE,
FALSE) does nothing because the device doesn't have any l3cd.
Previously the l3cds would linger in the l3cfg, keeping a reference to
it and causing a memory leak; the leak was not detected by valgrind
because the l3cfg was still referenced by the NMNetns.

This was working for internal plugin in the past, but broken by l3cfg
rework with 1.36. Re-add it. Not it also works with dhclient. For other
plugins, it's not really working, because we can't decline.
Now NMDhcpClient does ACD (using NML3Cfg) and abstracts that from
the caller (NMDevice).
It is complicated. Because there is state involved, meaning, we need
to remember the current state for ACD and react on and handle a
multitude of events. Getting this right, is non-trivial.
What we want is that if ACD fails, we decline the lease (and don't use
it).

I think the previous was technically correct in any case too.
Still change it, because I feel with union and struct initialization,
we should always explicitly pick one union member that we fully
initialize.
Introduction of a new setting ipv4.link-local, which enables
link-local IP addresses concurrently with other IP address assignment
implementations such as dhcp or manually.
No way is implemented to obtain a link-local address as a fallback when
dhcp does not respond (as dhcpd does, for example). This could be be
added later.
To maintain backward compatibility with ipv4.method ipv4.link-local has
lower priority than ipv4.method. This results in:
* method=link-local overrules link-local=disabled
* method=disabled overrules link-local=enabled
Furthermore, link-local=auto means that method defines whether
link-local is enabled or disabled:
* method=link-local --> link-local=enabled
* else --> link-local=disabled
The upside is, that this implementation requires no normalization.
Normalization is confusing to implement, because to get it really
right, we probably should support normalizing link-local based on
method, but also vice versa. And since the method affects how other
properties validate/normalize, it's hard to normalize that one, so that
the result makes sense. Normalization is also often not great to the
user, because it basically means to modify the profile based on other
settings.
The downside is that the auto flag becomes API and exists because
we need backward compatibility with ipv4.method.
We would never add this flag, if we would redesign "ipv4.method"
(by replacing by per-method-specific settings).
Defining a default setting for ipv4.link-local in the global
configuration is also supported.
The default setting for the new property can be "default", since old
users upgrading to a new version that supports ipv4.link-local will not
have configured the global default in NetworkManager.conf. Therefore,
they will always use the expected "auto" default unless they change
their configuration.

During the deactivation of ovs interfaces, ovsdb receives the command to
remove the interface but for OVS system ports the device won't
disappear.
When reconnecting, ovsdb will update first the status and it will notice
that the OVS system interface was removed and it will set the status as
DEACTIVATING. This is incorrect if the status is already DEACTIVATING,
DISCONNECTED, UNMANAGED or UNAVAILABLE because it will block the
activation of the interface.

Currently nm_setting_bond_get_option_normalized() and
nm_setting_bond_get_option_or_default() are identical functions. As the
first one is exposed as public API and has a better name, let's drop the
second one.
NM_STR_BUF_INIT() and nm_str_buf_init() were pretty much redundant. Drop one of
them.
Usually our pattern is that we don't have functions that return structs.
But NM_STR_BUF_INIT() returns a struct, because it's convenient to use
with
nm_auto_str_buf NMStrBuf strbuf = NM_STR_BUF_INIT(...);
So use that variant instead.
For some device types the attach-port operation doesn't complete
immediately. NMDevice needs to wait that the operation completes
before proceeding (for example, before starting stage3 for the port).
Change attach_port() so that it can return TERNARY_DEFAULT to indicate
that the operation will complete asynchronously. Most of devices are
not affected by this and can continue returning TRUE/FALSE as before
without callback.
DHCP leases for a given interface are already exported on D-Bus
through DHCP4Config and DHCP6Config objects. It is useful to have the
same information also available on the filesystem so that it can be
easily used by scripts.
NM already saves some information about DHCP leases in /var, however
that directory can only be accessed by root, for good reasons.
Append lease options to the existing state file
/run/NetworkManager/devices/$ifindex. Contrary to /var this directory
is not persistent, but it seems more correct to expose the lease only
when it is active and not after it expired or after a reboot.
Since the file is in keyfile format, we add new [dhcp4] and [dhcp6]
sections; however, since some options have the same name for DHCPv4
and DHCPv6, we add a "dhcp4." or "dhcp6." prefix to make the parsing
by scripts (e.g. via "grep") easier.
The option name is the same we use on D-Bus. Since some DHCPv6 options
also have a "dhcp6_" prefix, the key name can contain "dhcp6" twice.
The new sections look like this:
[dhcp4]
dhcp4.broadcast_address=172.25.1.255
dhcp4.dhcp_lease_time=120
dhcp4.dhcp_server_identifier=172.25.1.4

dhcp4.next_server=172.25.1.4
dhcp4.routers=172.25.1.4
dhcp4.subnet_mask=255.255.255.0

dhcp6.dhcp6_name_servers=fd01::1

ASSUME is causing more troubles than benefits it provides. This patch is
dropping NM_L3_CFG_COMMIT_TYPE_ASSUME and assume_config_once. NM3LCfg
will commit as if the sys-iface-state is MANAGED.
This patch is part of the effort to remove ASSUME from NetworkManager.
After ASSUME is dropped when starting NetworkManager it will take full
control of the interface, re-configuring it. The interface will be
managed from the start instead of assumed and then managed.
This will solve the situations where an interface is half-up and then a
restart happens. When NetworkManager is back it won't add the missing
addresses (which is what assume does) so the interface will fail during
the activation and will require a full activation.

When attaching a bond port, kernel will reset the MTU of the port ([1],
[2]). Configuring a different MTU on the port seems not a sensible
thing for the user to do.
Still, before commit e67ddd826f ('device: commit MTU during stage2')
we would first attach the bond port before setting the MTU. That
changed, and now the MTU set by kernel wins.
Btw, this change in behavior happens because we attach the port in
stage3 (ip-config), which seems an ugly thing to do.
Anyway, fix this by setting the MTU after attaching the ports, but still
in stage3.
It is probably not sensible for the user to configure a different MTU.
Still, if the user requested it by configuration, we should apply it.
Note that NetworkManager has some logic to constrain the MTU based on
the parent/child and controller/port. In many regards however, NetworkManager
does not fully understand or enforce the correct MTU and relies on the
user to configure it correctly. After all, if the user misconfigures the
MTU, the setup will have problems anyway (and in many cases neither
kernel nor NetworkManager could know that the configuration is wrong).

The goal would be to ensure that a device cannot move to activated,
while a DNS update is still pending.
This does not really work for most cases. That is, because NMDevice does
not directly push DNS updates to NMDnsManager, instead, NMPolicy is
watching all device changes, and doing it. But when NMPolicy decides to
to that, may not be the right moment.
We really should let NMDevice (or better, NML3Cfg) directly talk to
NMDnsManager. Why not? They have all the information when new DNS
configuration is available. The only thing that NMPolicy does on top of
that, is determining which device has the best default route. NMPolicy
could continue to do that (or maybe NMDnsManager could), but the update
needs to be directly triggered by NMDevice/NML3Cfg.
Currently NetworkManager fails to establish a NAP bridge because it never gets
out of the stage2.
This is caused because when making the BlueZ callback reentrant we return
NM_ACT_STAGE_RETURN_POSTPONE even after registration has succeeded.
This patch changes registration to a three state automaton instead of a
boolean. This allows distinguishing when we are waiting for registration
to finish and when it is done and therefore ensures that when the stage2
is called again by the callback the result is success so NetworkManager
can proceed to the IP configuration.

When the ovs-bridge datapath is netdev, OpenvSwitch will not create a
ovs-interface but a tun interface. The ovs-interface device must check
all the link-change signals and check if the link type is tun and the
interface name is the same than the device name. If so, the
ovs-interface device will get the ifindex of the tun device. This allow
NetworkManager to manage the interface properly, modifying MTU,
configuring IPv4/IPv6 and others.
Example:
```
55: ovsbridge-port0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,PROMISC,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 9000 qdisc fq_codel state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
link/ether fa:fb:07:98:e0:c6 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.123.100/24 brd 192.168.123.255 scope global noprefixroute ovsbridge-port0
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 fe80::9805:55c4:4c5f:da1c/64 scope link noprefixroute
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
```

Move initialization of NMSettingBridge from NMPlatformLnkBridge to separate
function.
This is needed because this initialization will be used in more than one
function.
This will allow migrating a connection. If specified, the connection will
be confined to a particular settings plugin when written back. If the
plugin differs from the existing one, it will be removed from the old one.
We list the properties that can be reapplied, and reject the reapply
operation for any other changes. The idea is that usually reapply
of a property requires an explicit implementation (or may not make
sense).
"connection.autoconnect-slaves" is something that takes effect when
activating the master device. It does not matter when the device
is already active, thus there is no need to reject the reapply
operation.

This allows us to reject activation of WEP profiles very early,
also providing a reasonable error code to the client:
$ nmcli d wifi connect test
Error: Failed to add/activate new connection: wpa_supplicant does not support WEP encryption
When a NMDevice is involved in a PPPoE activation, it means that the
connection has connection.interface-name=<ethernet-interface>. In such
case, the ppp ifindex should be set as ip-ifindex of the ethernet
device.
