The config-tests contain a NMTestDevice which derives from NMDevice.
However, for testing, it just skips the constructor and destructor of
NMDevice. This caused also the destructors of NMExportedObject to be skipped
and thus valgrind complained about leaked memory.

Port remaining bits to gdbus and remove stray dbus-glib references
Drop the dbus-glib version check from configure, since nothing depends
on new dbus-glib any more.
Move nm-dbus-glib-types.h and nm-gvaluearray-compat.h from include/ to
libnm-util/ since they are now only used by libnm-util and libnm-glib.
The new flags are not yet used, so there is no change in functionality.
The flags NM_IP_CONFIG_MERGE_NO_ROUTES and NM_IP_CONFIG_MERGE_NO_DNS go
together with the 'ignore-auto-routes' and 'ignore-auto-dns' setting.
Note that for IPv4, NM_IP_CONFIG_MERGE_NO_DNS also ignores NIS, WINS, and dns-options.
This is different from current other places that handle 'ignore-auto-dns'
and only care about nameservers, domains, and searches.
This internal header file should be included by our internal source
code files and header files. It includes in one place other headers
that constitute to a minimal set of required headers. Most notably
this is <glib.h> and our "nm-glib.h" header.
Note that public header files and example source code cannot include
this file as "nm-default.h" is internal only.
Our gdbus generated types use the same names as their corresponding
"real" types, but with "NM" changed to "NMDBus".
Unfortunately, that means that introspection/nmdbus-manager.c (the
generated type for src/nm-manager.c) uses the same type name as the
entirely unrelated src/nm-dbus-manager.c.
Fix this by removing the "d" from src/nm-dbus-manager.c. (We could
rename the generated type instead, but then it becomes inconsistent
with all the other generated types, and we're already using it as
"NMDBusManager" in libnm/nm-manager.c.)
Rather than randomly including one or more of <glib.h>,
<glib-object.h>, and <gio/gio.h> everywhere (and forgetting to include
"nm-glib-compat.h" most of the time), rename nm-glib-compat.h to
nm-glib.h, include <gio/gio.h> from there, and then change all .c
files in NM to include "nm-glib.h" rather than including the glib
headers directly.
(Public headers files still have to include the real glib headers,
since nm-glib.h isn't installed...)
Also, remove glib includes from header files that are already
including a base object header file (which must itself already include
the glib headers).
Add an argument @full_sync to the sync method of NMRouteManager.
@full_sync was what we did up to now, meaning, we removed every
route on the interface that was no on our internal list of known
routes.
Now with !@full_sync, only remove routes that were tracked previously.
This means, we will only remove routes that were added by us previously.
Don't make use of the new option yet. So there is no change of behavior
yet.
Kernel does not allow to add the same route (as determined by network/plen,metric)
on two different interfaces (ifindex). In case of conflict, NMRouteManager used to
ignore any but the firstly added route.
On the other hand, we cannot add a gateway-route, if there is no direct
route to the gateway. Hence, skipping duplicate routes can mean that we
skip a direct route what was necessary to add another gateway-route,
which then leads to a failure to add that route.
This also applies to IPv4 device routes that since recently are managed
by NMRouteManager.
For example, say you connect two interfaces to the same IP subnet.
The route-metric can conflict if the interfaces are of the same type
or if the user explicitly configured a conflict.
In case of conflicts, NMRouteManager would only configure the first
appearing route and skip the shadowed route on the second interface.
Now we cannot configure gateway-routes on the second interface because
the gateway is unreachable.
There are many scenarios where this issue can happen, especially with
default-routes and user-configured-routes.
For example with default-routes, ip4_config_merge_and_apply() would check
if the default-gateway requires an explict route and possibly add it.
But then NMRouteManager might not add the route because it is shadowed
by a route on an other interface.
This patch solves the issue by having NMRouteManager configure shadowed
routes too, similar to what NMDefaultRouteManager does.
It does that by searching for an unused, non-conflicting, higher metric
for the route, i.e. bump the metric by 1 until we can add it without
conflict.
Also note that NMRouteManager still ensures that for conflicting routes
the best route sticks to the interface that configured it first. That
means if you later add the conflicting route on another interface, it
will be added with higher metric and the data is still routed along the
first interface.
We already support setting configuration values, either:
(1) set any internal section, i.e. groups starting with [.intern*].
Those values don't ever interfere with that the user can
configure.
(2) set individual properties that overwrite user configuration.
When doing that, we record the value from user configuration
and on load, we reject our internal overwrite if the user
configuration changed in the meantime.
This is done by storing the values with ".set." and ".was." prefixes.
Now add support for "atomic sections". In this case, certain groups
can be marked as "atomic". When writing to such sections, we overwrite
the entire user-provided setting.
We also record the values from user configuration, and reject our
internal value if we notice modifications. This basically extends
(2) from individual properties to the entire section.
Internal configuration is written as keyfile to
NMSTATEDIR"/NetworkManager-intern.conf"
Basically, the content of this file is merged with user
configuration from "NetworkManager.conf" files. After loading
the configuration, NMConfig exposes a merged view of user-provided
settings and internal overwrites.
All sections/groups named [.intern*] are reserved for internal
configuration values. They can be written by API, but are ignored
when the user sets them via "NetworkManager.conf". For these
internal sections, no conflicts can arise.
We can also overwrite individual properties from user configuration.
In this case, we store the value we want to set, but also remember
the value that the user configuration had, at the time of setting.
If on a later reload the user configuration changed, we ignore our
internal value -- as we assume that the user modified the value
afterwards.
We can also hide/delete value from user configuration.
This works on a per-setting basis.
This allows packages to install their configuration snippets to
"/usr/", which is a better place for system-provided configuration
files then "/etc".
"/usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/" is read first, so that the values
in /etc have higher priority.
In general, we want to move system-provided configuration away from
/etc, so that a user can do a "factory-reset" by purging /etc.

It is wrong to blindly merge keys that have an 'option+' or 'option-'.
Merging options is only possibly when we understand what the option
means and how to merge it.
No longer handle every setting but only those that are explicitly known
to be string-lists (or device-specs).
We have a special implemenation nm_match_spec_split() to split
a string. We also need the reverse operation to be able to convert
a list of specs to string without loss.
In some cases we want the returned value to be stripped. In some cases,
we want to read the raw value instead of the string parsed by GKeyFile.
Add an flags argument to nm_config_data_get_value(). It is up to the caller
to determine the exact meaning (and whether to strip).
By adding the flags argument, the caller can get the desired behavior easier
without having to workaround it afterwards. But more importantly, it becomes
apparent that there are different ways to retrieve the value and the caller
should decide on the details.
We have a hack to extend GKeyFile to support specifying an 'option+'
key. Also add support for 'option-'.
Options that make use of these modifiers can only be string lists.
So do the concatenation not based on plain strings, but by treating
the values as string lists. Also, don't add duplicates.
We support the "NetworkManager.conf" sections '[connection]' and
'[connection.\+]' (with arbitrary suffix).
Fix the order of how we evaluate these section.
Note that the literal '[connection]' section is always evaluated lastly
after any other '[connection.\+]' section.
Within one file, we want to evaluate the sections in top-to-bottom
order. But accross multiple files, we want to order them
later-files-first. That gives a reasonable behavior if the user
looks at one file, and also if he wants to overwrite configuration
via configuration snippets like "conf.d/99-last.conf".
Note that if a later file extends/overwrites a section defined in an
earlier file, the section is still considered with lower priority
This is intentional, because the user ~extends~ a lower priority
section. If he wants to add a higher priority section, he should
choose a new suffix.

Change nm_platform_link_get() to return the cached NMPlatformLink
instance. Now what all our implementations (fake and linux) have such a
cache internal object, let's just expose it directly.
Note that the lifetime of the exposed link object is possibly quite
short. A caller must copy the returned value if he intends to preserve
it for later.
Also add nm_platform_link_get_by_ifname() and modify nm_platform_link_get_by_address()
to return the instance.
Certain functions, such as nm_platform_link_get_name(),
nm_platform_link_get_ifindex(), etc. are solely implemented based
on looking at the returned NMPlatformLink object. No longer implement
them as virtual functions but instead implement them in the base class
(nm-platform.c).
This removes code and eliminates the redundancy of the exposed
NMPlatformLink instance and the nm_platform_link_get_*() accessors.
Thereby also fix a bug in NMFakePlatform that tracked the link address
in a separate "address" field, instead of using "link.addr". That was
a case where the redundancy actually led to a bug in fake platform.
Also remove some stub implementations in NMFakePlatform that just
bail out. Instead allow for a missing virtual functions and perform
the "default" action in the accessor.
An example for that is nm_platform_link_get_permanent_address().
Later remove nm_platform_get_error() and signal errors via return
error codes.
Also, fix nm_platform_infiniband_partition_add() and
nm_platform_vlan_add() to check the type of the existing link
and fail with WRONG_TYPE otherwise.
After hiding the udi field, there are no more users of NMRefString.
Remove the code by explitly reverting the patch so that in case of a future
need, we can find and resurrect NMRefString.
This reverts commit 430658b17a.
Switch platform caching implementation. Instead of caching libnl
objects, cache our own types.
Don't remove yet the now obsolete functions.
Advantage:
* Performance
- as we now cache our native NMPlatformObject instances, we no longer
have to convert libnl objects every time we access the platform
cache.
- for most cases, access is now O(1) because we can lookup the object
in a hash table. Note that ip4_address_get_all() still has to
create a copy of the result (O(n)), but as the caller is about to
use those elements, he cannot do better then O(n) anyway.
* We cache our own native types and have full control over them. We
cannot extend the libnl objects, which has many short-commings:
- _rtnl_addr_hack_lifetimes_rel_to_abs() to convert the timestamps
to absolute values (and back).
- hack_empty_master_iff_lower_up() would modify the internal flag,
but it looses the original value. That means, we can only hack
the state before putting a link into the cache, but we cannot revert
that change, when a slave in the cache changes state.
That was previously solved by always refetching the master when
a slave changed. Now we can re-evaluate the connected state
(DELAYED_ACTION_TYPE_MASTER_CONNECTED).
- we implement functions like equality, to-string as most suitable
for us. Before we needed hacks like nm_nl_object_diff(),
nm_nl_cache_search(), route_search_cache().
- we can extend our objects with exactly those properties we care,
and possibly additional properties that are not representable in
the libnl objects.
- we no longer cache RTM_F_CLONED routes and they get rejected early
on as we receive them.
- In the future, maybe it'd be interesting the make platform objects
immutable (and ref-counted) and expose them directly.
* Previous implementation did not order the refresh of objects but
called check_cache_items(). Now, those actions are delayed and
combined in an attempt to reduce the overall number of reloads.
Realize how expensive a check_cache_items() for addresses and routes
was: it would iterate all addresses/routes and call refresh_object().
The latter obtains a full dump of *all* objects again, and ignores
all but the needle.
Note that we probably still schedule some delayed actions that
are not needed.
Later we can optimize that further (related bug bgo #747985).
While some of these points could also have been implemented with
caching of libnl objects, that would have become hard to maintain.

A class to do efficient lookup for multiple values based on a key.
The values are opaque pointers (void*). These values can be
associated with keys. The keys are an opaque type NMMultiIndexId
with arbitrary hash/equal functions.
Think of the keys being a set of buckets. A value can be associated with multiple
keys, just like with a regular GHashTable (i.e. it can be in multiple buckets).
But one key can also be associated with multiple values (i.e. one bucket can contain
multiple values). Hence the name "multi".
One bucket can only either contain a value or not. It cannot contain the same
value multiple times.
This is implemented as a hash of hashes with the outer keys being
NMMultiIndexId. The inner hashes are the "buckets".
This class will be used as an efficient lookup index to find all values
that belong to a certain key (bucket). Later we will ask for example
"Which IP4-Addresses are associated with a certain ifindex" and
efficiently retrieve the cached result list.
NMRefString is a simple, refcounted, immutable string. Increasing/decreasing
the refcount does not affect const-ness.
It can be used just like a regular 'const char *' pointer. The only
difference is that you need special alloc/free functions.
Cache the scope as part of the NMPlatformIP4Route and
no longer read it from libnl object when needed. Later
there will be no more libnl objects around, and we need
to scope when deleting an IPv4 route.

Add support for a new section [connection] in NetworkManager.conf.
If the connection leaves an option at "unknown"/"default", we can
support overwriting the value from global configuration.
We also support other sections that are named with "connection"
as a prefix, such as [connection2], [connection-wifi]. This is
to support multiple default values that can be applied depending
on the used device.
I think this has great potential. Only downside is that when
the user looks at a connection value, it will see that it is
unspecified. But the actually used value depends on the device
type and might not be obvious.

Up to now, this code was correct. Later we will add another field
to NMPlatformIP4Route which causes the test to operate on
uninitialized data.
Instead of explicitly initializing the field, just clear the whole
struct.
We do the same for the original MAC address.
A device enslaved to a bond it inherits the bond's MAC address. When
NetworkManager tries to assume a connection the generated cloned-mac property
causes a mismatch with the connection that originally brought up the device,
causing the generated connection to be used instead:

nm_ethernet_address_is_valid() did not check whether @addr was a valid
address in the first place. It only checked whether the address was not
equal to a few notorious MAC addresses.
At the same time, be more forgiving and accept %NULL as argument.
This fixes an assertion nm_ap_match_in_hash().
