[PATCH] adapter: Implement PowerState property

[PATCH] adapter: Implement PowerState property

[Bastien Nocera]

This property should allow any program to show the transitional state,
not just the one that requested the change, and will also show
transitional states that were the results of other system changes, like
rfkill changes.

Downstream bug in gnome-bluetooth:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-bluetooth/-/issues/121

Note that this probably doesn't handle multiple, conflicting requests
for power on, or power off. Is there a good way to protect against
that?

Looks like the bot doesn't like where I put those comments.

If anyone can comment on the API I used, and I'll iterate the actual
implementation. I'd like the API to be settled by the time GNOME 43
ships, so we can rely on it there.

Cheers

I wonder what are you actually after with these changes, in most cases
I'd say the changes shall just be queued, anyway perhaps the problem
was something related to:

Btw, I think this shows that perhaps it would be best practice to
create a github issue when there are bugs for Gnome/Chrome OS so we
can properly use the Fixes: tag to close them which makes it easier
for downstream to find out if a similar issue was fixed and attempt to
reuse the same fix.

That's not the fix we need in this particular case, but I'm fine with
filing GitHub bugs if you prefer.

That helps with one of the problems I ran into (resetting the
transitional state on failure), thanks.

What I'm after is a transitional state when the Bluetooth adapter is
being powered on, as it can take more than "an instant" (aka 200msec)
to turn on, and sometimes much longer.

Users in that transition period can wonder why the adapter is already
on but not usable, or still off. This is even worse if the enablement
doesn't work, as it could show that the device was on/available for a
time before stopping being available, depending on which option the UI
developer took, which is obviously not true.

I updated the patch for the latest git and completed the commit
message, let me know if that helps.

This changes need to be split in its own patch, also not long ago I
was discussing with Marcel about MGMT power states vs rfkill, they
don't seem to be inline with each other, while rfkill does reflect on
the MGMT interface powered states doesn't which means the driver are
not aware of it since afaik the MGMT states are not communicated back
to the driver, so perhaps we should reflect this distinction on
PowerState with a dedicated state for rfkill or we start using rfkill
ourselves directly via daemon using a dedicated property.

You want the docs changes to be a separate patch? I can do that, but I
thought that having documentation changes be added along with the
property itself would have been desirable.

The rfkill calls made by GNOME are usually sent to all the rfkill
devices, rather than targeted at blocking a single adapter. So the
adapter state isn't super interesting in this case, as all the devices
will be either blocked (computer with no platform rfkill), or gone from
the USB bus (computer with a platform rfkill).


The good thing about using a string property here is that we can extend
it. One thing we can do though, to make extensibility easier, is take a
leaf out of the icon naming specification, and use prefixes to encode
the expected state in case the software isn't new enough to know about
a property.

For example:
- "on"
- "off"
- "on-disabling" (transitioning from on to off)
- "off-enabling" (transitioning from off to on)

So we could easily add:
- "off-rfkill" (off and blocked)

Let me know what you think.

Cheers

off-rfkill sounds fine to me, btw introduce it as experimental so we
can still make changes if need to.
