It fully initializes the address structure, so no need for pre-initialization,
and also returns the length of the address, so no need to recalculate using
SOCKADDR_UN_LEN().
socklen_t is unsigned, so let's not use an int for it. (It doesn't matter, but
seems cleaner and more portable to not assume anything about the type.)
When authorizing via PolicyKit we want to process incoming method calls
twice: once to process and figure out that we need PK authentication,
and a second time after we aquired PK authentication to actually execute
the operation. With this new call sd_bus_enqueue_for_read() we have a
way to put an incoming message back into the read queue for this
purpose.
This might have other uses too, for example debugging.
Let's remove a function of questionnable utility.
strv_clear() frees the items of a string array, but not the array
itself. i.e. it half-drestructs a string array and makes it empty. This
is not too useful an operation since we almost never need to just do
that, we also want to free the whole thing. In fact, strv_clear() is
only used in one of our .c file, and there it appears like unnecessary
optimization, given that for each array with n elements it leaves the
number of free()s we need to at O(n) which is not really an optimization
at all (it goes from n+1 to n, that's all).
Prompted by the discussions on #14605
We don't need a seperate output parameter that is of type int. glibc() says
that the type is "unsigned", but the kernel thinks it's "int". And the
"alternative names" interface also uses ints. So let's standarize on ints,
since it's clearly not realisitic to have interface numbers in the upper half
of unsigned int range.
This only matters for the case where new networkctl is running against older
networkd. We should still handle the old error to avoid unnecessary warning
about speedmeeter being disabled.
This partially reverts commit e813de549b.
The combination of sd_netlink_message_enter_container() and
sd_netlink_message_read_string() only reads the last element if the attribute is
duplicated, such a situation easily happens for IFLA_ALT_IFNAME.
The function introduced here reads all matched attributes.
