Let's settle on a single type for all address family values, even if
UNIX is very inconsitent on the precise type otherwise. Given that
socket() is the primary entrypoint for the sockets API, and that uses
"int", and "int" is relatively simple and generic, we settle on "int"
for this.

Currently when both ipv4ll and dhcp are enabled, ipv4ll
address (if one has been claimed) is removed when dhcp
address is aquired. This is not the best thing to do
since there might be clients unaware of the removal
trying to communicate.
This patch provides a smooth transition between ipv4ll
and dhcp. If ipv4ll address was claimed [1] before dhcp,
address is marked as deprecated. Deprecated address is still
a valid address and packets can be received on it but address
cannot be selected as a source address. If dhcp lease cannot
be extended, then ipv4ll address is marked as valid again.
[1] If there is no collision, claiming IPv4LL takes between 4 to
7 seconds.

Use a static table with all the typing information, rather than repeated
switch statements. This should make it a lot simpler to add new types.
We need to keep all the type info to be able to create containers
without exposing their implementation details to the users of the library.
As a freebee we verify the types of appended/read attributes.
The API is extended to nicely deal with unions of container types.
|
|
These tests were both broken and redundant, so let's drop them.
|
|
Extend rta_offset_tb into a stack of offset tables, one for each parent of the
current container, and make sd_rtnl_message_{enter,exit}_container() pop/push
to this stack.
Also make sd_rtnl_message_rewind() parse the top-level container, and use this
when reading a message from the socket.
This changes the API by dropping the now redundant sd_rtnl_message_read()
method.
|
|
Make sure the returned data fits the datatype we requested. Otherwise return -EIO.
Also fix a broken test that this exposed.

This patch introduces reading ethernet address and IPV4/IPv6
as well which is based on table based look up.
[tomegun: rename read_ether() to read_ether_addr() to match the append function.]

This patch introduces new netlink attribute parsing logic
which is table based lookup and sd_rtnl_message_read_*
methods for reading attributes. By doing this user does not
have to loop for the attribute values . Only providing the
attribute type it gets the attribute values which is optimized
and sd_rtnl_message_read_* methods are simplified.
|
|
We need a separate container_enter() function, which will be part of a largerg
API change. For now, just fix message_read().

first (or second)
Previously the returned object of constructor functions where sometimes
returned as last, sometimes as first and sometimes as second parameter.
Let's clean this up a bit. Here are the new rules:
1. The object the new object is derived from is put first, if there is any
2. The object we are creating will be returned in the next arguments
3. This is followed by any additional arguments
Rationale:
For functions that operate on an object we always put that object first.
Constructors should probably not be too different in this regard. Also,
if the additional parameters might want to use varargs which suggests to
put them last.
Note that this new scheme only applies to constructor functions, not to
all other functions. We do give a lot of freedom for those.
Note that this commit only changes the order of the new functions we
added, for old ones we accept the wrong order and leave it like that.

This mimics the sd-bus api, as we may need it in the future.
|
|
|
|
We can always know the size based on the type, so let's do this inside the library.
|

|
sd_rtnl_xxx_new_yyy()
So far we followed the rule to always indicate the "flavour" of
constructors after the "_new_" or "_open_" in the function name, so
let's keep things in sync here for rtnl and do the same.
|
|
The "sd_" prefix is supposed to be used on exported symbols only, and
not in the middle of names. Let's drop it from the cleanup macros hence,
to make things simpler.
The bus cleanup macros don't carry the "sd_" either, so this brings the
APIs a bit nearer.

|
We are more likely to catch errors if we don't use '0' as test value.
|

|

|
|
|
|
Also insist on messages being sealed before reading them. In other
words we don't allow interleaving of reading and appending to messages.
|
|
|
|
We still only produce on .so, but let's keep the sources separate to make things a bit
less messy.
