When using the netdev datapath, we wait that the tun link appears, we call nm_device_set_ip_ifindex() (which also brings the link up) and then we check that the link is ready, i.e. that udev has announced the link and the MAC address is correct. After that, we schedule stage3 (ip-config). In this, there is a race condition that occurs sometimes in NMCI test ovs_datapath_type_netdev_with_cloned_mac. In rare conditions, nm_device_set_ip_ifindex() bring the interface up but then ovs-vswitch changes again the flags of the interface without IFF_UP. The result is that the interface stays down, breaking communications. To fix this, we need to always call nm_device_bring_up() after the tun device is ready. The problem is that we can't do it in _netdev_tun_link_cb() because that function is already invoked synchronously from platform code. Instead, simplify the handling of the netdev datapath. Every "link-changed" event from platform is handled by _netdev_tun_link_cb(), which always schedule a delayed function _netdev_tun_link_cb_in_idle(). This function just assigns the ip-ifindex to the device if missing, and starts stage3 if the link is ready. While doing so, it also bring the interface up. Fixes: |

Most of the subdirectories are static helper libraries, which get linked into one of the final build artifacts (like libnm, nmcli or NetworkManager). Static libraries are internal API.
The only public API is libnm, which is a shared library provided client implementations.
Our own clients (like nmcli and nmtui) also use libnm, the shared library. But they also use additional static helper libraries.
The daemon statically links against a part of libnm, the part that provides connection profiles. That is libnm-core. libnm-core is thus statically linked with libnm and the daemon. It does not get linked by clients that already link with libnm (like nmtui).
