Thomas Haller f0d40525df device: support dynamic "connection.stable-id" in form of text-substitution ... Usecase: when connecting to a public Wi-Fi with MAC address randomization ("wifi.cloned-mac-address=random") you get on every re-connect a new IP address due to the changing MAC address. "wifi.cloned-mac-address=stable" is the solution for that. But that means, every time when reconnecting to this network, the same ID will be reused. We want an ID that is stable for a while, but at a later point a new ID should e generated when revisiting the Wi-Fi network. Extend the stable-id to become dynamic and support templates/substitutions. Currently supported is "${CONNECTION}", "${BOOT}" and "${RANDOM}". Any unrecognized pattern is treated verbaim/untranslated. "$$" is treated special to allow escaping the '$' character. This allows the user to still embed verbatim '$' characters with the guarantee that future versions of NetworkManager will still generate the same ID. Of course, a user could just avoid '$' in the stable-id unless using it for dynamic substitutions. Later we might want to add more recognized substitutions. For example, it could be useful to generate new IDs based on the current time. The ${} syntax is extendable to support arguments like "${PERIODIC:weekly}". Also allow "connection.stable-id" to be set as global default value. Previously that made no sense because the stable-id was static and is anyway strongly tied to the identity of the connection profile. Now, with dynamic stable-ids it gets much more useful to specify a global default. Note that pre-existing stable-ids don't change and still generate the same addresses -- unless they contain one of the new ${} patterns.		2017-01-09 14:50:33 +01:00
