Some systems do not use the `ethN` interface naming scheme, and
use `ensN` instead. The test wants to use `eth1` as the second
interface. If this does not exist, try `ens4` instead.
The validation was incorrectly checking for routing rule attributes at the top-level
NM module instead of the NM.IPRoutingRule class. This was causing validation failures
because:
libnm's API has two core aspects:
1. NMConnection/NMSetting types for handling connection profiles
2. NMClient as a cache of D-Bus objects
The suppress_prefixlength and uid_range attributes are not part of the top-level NM
module but belong to NM.IPRoutingRule. Updated the validation to properly check for:
- set_suppress_prefixlength instead of NM_IP_ROUTING_RULE_ATTR_SUPPRESS_PREFIXLENGTH
- set_uid_range instead of NM_IP_ROUTING_RULE_ATTR_UID_RANGE_START
This aligns with the correct API usage and fixes the validation errors.

When a user provides both an interface name and a MAC address, the
current validation process retrieves sysfs link info separately using
the interface name and the MAC address, then compares the results. If
the information doesn't match, an error is raised.
However, this approach may trigger false alarms because retrieving the
link info by MAC might return the link info that only matches the
current MAC instead of the permanent MAC. Since the interface name is
unique within the kernel, a more robust validation method is to fetch
the MAC address using the interface name and then compare it directly
with the user-provided MAC address.

The link_info_find() function previously allowed searching for links by
MAC address, but this introduced ambiguity and could cause false alarms
in certain cases (e.g. retrieving the link info by MAC might return the
link info that only matches the current MAC instead of the permanent
MAC). To ensure reliable behavior, this function should accept and match
the link info only by interface name.
To address the issues, the following changes were made:
- Removed MAC address matching logic to eliminate ambiguity.
- Simplified the function to only check ifname, making it more
predictable.
- Updated all callers to adapt to this change, ensuring correctness.
- When a profile is tied to an interface via mac only, the validation of
the existence of interface will now be delegated to NetworkManager
instead.

Add support for the `wait_ip` property, the system will consider
connection activated only when specific IP stack is configured.
This enables flexibility in scenarios such as
IPv6-only networks, where the overall network configuration can still
succeed when IPv4 configuration fails but IPv6 completes successfully.
The `wait_ip` can be configured with the following possible values:
* "any": System will consider interface activated when any IP stack is
configured.
* "ipv4": System will wait IPv4 been configured.
* "ipv6": System will wait IPv6 been configured.
* "ipv4+ipv6": System will wait both IPv4 and IPv6 been configured.

Enhancement: Add the optional route source parameter for the nm provider
Reason: In a scenario where you have a machine with multiple public IP
addresses, typically due to a multi-WAN setup, the src parameter in the
context of routes allows you to specify which source IP address should
be used when sending packets via a specific route. This is crucial when
you want to ensure that outbound traffic uses a specific IP address tied
to a particular network interface, especially when dealing with multiple
WAN connections.
Result: Adding support for the src parameter in routes results in a
more powerful and flexible network configuration capability, especially
important in environments with multiple network interfaces or multiple
IP addresses, it provides better control over traffic routing.

If updates for network packages are available and wireless or team
connections are specified, NetworkManager must be restarted, the role
requires user's consent to restart NetworkManager. Otherwise, there
might be property conflicts between NetworkManager daemon and plugin, or
NetworkManager plugin is not taking effect.
`update_cache` is enabled in the module tasks to check if updates for
network packages are available due to wireless or team interfaces, in
that case, NetworkManager needs user's explicit consent to be restarted
after the network package updates. And using `state: latest` for
checking the network package updates because we have to guarantee that
NetworkManager and its plugin have the same and most recent version for
configuring the network connections settings in the backend. It is
worthwhile to mention that we have both tasks using dnf and yum module
for checking available updates for network packages. Because checking
package cache update is not supported in Ansible package module, Fedora
and RHEL8+ use DNF package manager by default, RHEL7 uses yum package
manager by default.
This commit will address the situation that users forget to explicitly
specify `network_allow_restart: true` when specifying wireless or team
connections.

The old ansible-community ansible-lint is deprecated. There is a
new ansible-lint github action. The new ansible-lint has several checks
related to ansible-test and the ignore files. Many of our ignore settings
are not allowed any more and are required to be fixed or addressed in the
Ansible preferred way.
The python imports have to be wrapped in a try/except ImportError, and
where possible, an error must be returned from the module explaining
what was not able to be imported.
The module documentation must comply with the Ansible standards. One
aspect of this is the `version_added` must be a valid ansible-core
version in X.Y.Z format. Note that this version isn't really used
anywhere, so it doesn't matter for users of the role, it is purely
an `ansible-test` and import gating issue.
The result of this is that the .sanity files can be reduced to the
bare minimum which will greatly reduce the maintenance burden of
those files, make it easier to support newer versions of Ansible,
and make it easier to import the system roles collection into Galaxy
and Automation Hub.
The latest Ansible repo gating tests run ansible-lint against
the collection format instead of against individual roles.
We have to convert the role to collection format before running
ansible-test.
Role developers can run this locally using
`tox -e collection,ansible-lint-collection`
See https://github.com/linux-system-roles/tox-lsr/pull/125
Add `---` doc start to .markdownlint.yaml
The file `examples/down_profile+delete_interface.yml`
was not used and was causing ansible-lint errors.
ansible-lint enforces the order of keywords in plays - `name`,
then `hosts`, then `vars`, then `tasks`.

Since the merge of nmstate commit 'nm dns: Support appending static DNS
before dynamic DNS' (https://github.com/nmstate/nmstate/pull/2438),
nmstate treats interface with `auto-dns: true` as valid to store DNS
and tries to use NetworkManager global DNS as much as possible. However,
in NM, `dns=systemd-resolved` does not support global DNS configuration,
because systemd-resolved only supports per-interface DNS servers (via
the D-Bus API). Therefore, write and validate the DNS configuration in
/run/NetworkManager/no-stub-resolv.conf, which contains the original
DNS settings pushed to the DNS plugin.

The dependency on `ansible.utils.update_fact` is causing issue with
some users who now must install that collection in order to run
the role, even if they do not care about ostree.
The fix is to stop trying to set `ansible_facts.pkg_mgr`, and instead
force the use of the ostree package manager with the `package:` module
`use:` option. The strategy is - on ostree systems, set the flag
`__$ROLENAME_is_ostree` if the system is an ostree system. The flag
will either be undefined or `false` on non-ostree systems.
Then, change every invocation of the `package:` module like this:
```yaml
- name: Ensure required packages are present
package:
name: "{{ __$ROLENAME_packages }}"
state: present
use: "{{ (__$ROLENAME_is_ostree | d(false)) |
ternary('ansible.posix.rhel_rpm_ostree', omit) }}"
```
This should ensure that the `use:` parameter is not used if the system
is non-ostree. The goal is to make the ostree support as unobtrusive
as possible for non-ostree systems.
The user can also set `__$ROLENAME_is_ostree: true` in the inventory or play
if the user knows that ostree is being used and wants to skip the check.
Or, the user is concerned about the performance hit for ostree detection
on non-ostree systems, and sets `__$ROLENAME_is_ostree: false` to skip
the check.
The flag `__$ROLENAME_is_ostree` can also be used in the role or tests to
include or exclude tasks from being run on ostree systems.
This fix also improves error reporting in the `get_ostree_data.sh` script
when included roles cannot be found.

`from 0.0.0.0/0` means from all IPv4 addresses, `from ::/0` means from
all IPv6 addresses. In NM, if `from` property is not specified in a
routing rule, NM still appends `from 0.0.0.0/0` or `from ::/0` to the
rule. NM also allows to specify `to 0.0.0.0/0` or `to ::/0` in a
routing rule, but the connection profiles will only show the `from`
setting for the rule.

`auto-dns` on `ipv4` or `ipv6` section). Also, the users can get auto
DNS from DHCPv4, DHCPv6, modem etc, and they may want to ignore auto
DNS on Ipv4 but not on IPv6, in this case, it is better to have two
