*** nm-in-container: find NetworkManager bind mounted at {{BASEDIR_NM}} run `nm-env-prepare.sh setup --idx 1` to setup test interfaces Coredumps: coredumps are not namespaced, so by default they will be sent to coredumpctl of the outer host, which has no idea where to get the debugging symbols from. A possible workaround is setting $ echo '/tmp/core.%e.%p' | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern so that core dumps get written to file. Afterwards, restore with $ echo '|/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g %s %t %c %h' | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern from /usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf. For example, configure NetworkManager with $ ./configure \ --enable-address-sanitizer=no \ --enable-compile-warnings=yes \ --enable-concheck \ --enable-config-plugin-ibft=yes \ --enable-gtk-doc \ --enable-ifcfg-rh=yes \ --enable-ifcfg-suse \ --enable-ifnet \ --enable-ifupdown=yes \ --enable-introspection \ --enable-json-validation=yes \ --enable-maintainer-mode \ --enable-more-logging \ --enable-more-warnings=error \ --enable-ovs=yes \ --enable-polkit=yes \ --enable-teamdctl=yes \ --enable-undefined-sanitizer=no \ --enable-vala=yes \ --enable-wimax \ --localstatedir=/var \ --prefix=/opt/test \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --with-config-dhcp-default=internal \ --with-config-dns-rc-manager-default=auto \ --with-consolekit=yes \ --with-consolekit=yes \ --with-crypto=nss \ --with-dhclient=yes \ --with-dhcpcanon=yes \ --with-dhcpcd=yes \ --with-iwd=yes \ --with-libnm-glib=yes \ --with-modem-manager-1 \ --with-netconfig=/bin/nowhere/netconfig \ --with-nm-cloud-setup=yes \ --with-nmcli=yes \ --with-nmtui=yes \ --with-ofono=yes \ --with-resolvconf=/bin/nowhere/resolvconf \ --with-session-tracking=systemd \ --with-suspend-resume=systemd \ --with-systemd-logind=yes \ --with-valgrind=yes \ --enable-tests="${NM_BUILD_TESTS:-yes}" \ --with-more-asserts="${NM_BUILD_MORE_ASSERTS:-1000}" \ "${NM_CONFIGURE_OTPS[@]}" Test with: $ systemctl stop NetworkManager; /opt/test/sbin/NetworkManager --debug 2>&1 | tee -a /tmp/nm-log.txt Or better, configure with `contrib/fedora/rpm/configure-for-system.sh`, subsequent `make && make install` will overwrite your system's NetworkManager, and you can test it with `systemctl daemon-reload ; systemctl restart NetworkManager`. Run NM-ci tests after creating eth1 with `nm-env-prepare.sh --prefix eth -i 1 && sleep 1 && nmcli device connect eth1`.
