- assert that WITH_JANSSON and JANSSON_SONAME are defined consistently.
This check ensures that we can check at compile time that nm_json_vt()
will always fail (because JANSSON_SONAME) is undefined.
That is interesting, because this means you can do a compile time
for !WITH_JANSSON, and know if nm_json_vt() will *never* succeed.
With that, we could let the linker know when the code is unused
and remove all uses of nm_json_vt(), without using the traditional
conditional compilation with "#if WITH_JANSSON". But of course, we
currently don't do this micro optimization to remove defunct code.
- drop the "mode" helper variable and pass the flags directly to
dlopen().
jansson 2.7 was released October 2014. It's also in Ubuntu 16.06.
Other distros (like CentOS 7.5 and Debian Stretch/9) have both newer
versions.
Bump the requirement, simply because our CI does not use such old version
so it's not clear whether it works at all.
Our "nm-json-aux.h" redefines various things from <jansson.h> header.
Add a unit test that checks that what we redefine exactly matches what
libjansson would provide, so that they are compatible.
They serve a similar purpose.
Previously, nm-json-aux.h contained the virtual function table for accessing
the dynamically loaded libjansson. But there is no reason why our own
helper functions from nm-json.h cannot be there too.
nm-json.[hc] uses libjansson, but only loads it at runtime with dlopen. There
is no more run compile time dependency. Move it to shared, so that it can be
(theoretically) used by other components.
Also, drop the conditional compilation. Granted, if you don't build with
libjansson enabled, then the JANSSON_SONAME define is unset and the code
will fail to load at runtime (which is fine). However, we can still build
against our JSON wrappers. The code savings of conditional build are minimal
so drop it.
The output of nm_utils_format_variant_attributes() must be accepted by
nm_utils_parse_variant_attributes(), producing the initial attributes.
The latter has a special handling of some attributes, depending on the
input NMVariantAttributeSpec list. For example, if the
NMVariantAttributeSpec is a boolean with the 'no_value' flag, the
parser doesn't look for a value.
Pass the NMVariantAttributeSpec list to the format function so that it
can behave in the same way as the parse one.
There is the team of nm_auto*, nm_clear_pointer() and nm_steal_pointer().
These goes nicely together so that an autovariable owns a resource,
to free it (clear) and to transfer ownership (steal).
We have these also in glib, but we certainly also need it if we don't
have glib because that very much goes together with nm_auto*. Add it.
Previously, we did not have a hard dependency on C99. Nowadays, we
actually build against C11, so we have <stdbool.h>. These definitions
are no longer necessary nor do we care about building against plain
C89.
For a long time already we build with gnu11/C11. We thus rely on having
<stdbool.h> around, which is C99. Use it.
Also fix "nm-std-aux.h" to not use TRUE/FALSE glib defines.
We redefine _G_BOOLEAN_EXPR(), so let it use NM_BOOLEAN_EXPR().
Also, we use G_LIKELY() (and thus NM_BOOLEAN_EXPR()) inside nm_assert(),
and we use nm_assert() in some macros. To be able to nest nm_assert()
calls, we need to create unique variable names for NM_BOOLEAN_EXPR().
Having assertion macros that are disabled by default, is not
only useful for our glib code, but should also be available
for nm-std-aux. Move the macros.
- add unit test for nm_utils_parse_next_line()
- as line delimiter also accept "\r\n" and "\r" (beside "\n", "\0" and
EOF).
- fix returning lines with embedded "\0" characters. The line ends
on the first "\n" or "\0", whatever comes first. The code before
didn't ensure that with:
line_end = memchr (line_start, '\n', *inout_len);
if (!line_end)
line_end = memchr (line_start, '\0', *inout_len);
We want to parse "/proc/cmdline". That is space separated with support
for quoting and escaping. Our implementation becomes part of stable
behavior, and we should interpret the kernel command line the same way
as the system does. That means, our implementation should match
systemd's.
We usually don't want to use internal API of systemd for our own
purposes. Here, we will use it to check our implementation against
systemd's. Add an accessor to extract_first_word() for testing.
In the previous form, NM_STR_BUF_INIT() was a macro. That makes sense,
however it's not really possible to make that a macro without evaluating
the reservation length multiple times. That means,
NMStrBuf strbuf = NM_STR_BUF_INIT (nmtst_get_rand_uint32 () % 100, FALSE);
leads to a crash. That is unfortunate, so instead make it an inline
function that returns a NMStrBut struct. Usually, we avoid functions
that returns structs, but here we do it.
