Proactive Key Caching (also called Opportunistic Key Caching) allows
fast roaming between access points in the same SSID on large enterprise
or university networks. Previously it was only enabled for EAP-GTC
but there's no reason to restrict it only to that EAP type, as all
large wifi deployments can benefit from it.
For OSTree/gnome-ostree, the model chosen for /var is that services
are responsible for creating any data they need in /var at runtime.
Call g_mkdir_with_parents() to ensure NMSTATEDIR exists.

Based on Colin Walters' patch.
For the default wired connection (or any connection that doesn't have an IPv4
setting, which means "auto"), the hostname should always be sent to the DHCP
server to register in DNS.
Two issues here: first, the daemon code was using the wrong D-Bus type
(strings instead of object-path) to send the connection path to the
secret agent, which resulted in a method-not-found error and nothing
happening in the agent.
Second, the agent-side method call verification code would fail the
request anyway, becuase verify_request() determined success based
on the reconstructed connection, which isn't given when canceling
secrets requests.
Ensure that NMDevice::state-changed signals don't get emitted out of
order, and ensure that nm_device_get_state() from a ::state-changed
handler always returns new_state.
When no slave is present, dynamic IP configuration (DHCPv4, DHCPv6,
IPv6 autoconf) cannot proceed. But static and link-local
configuration can. So if IPv4 requires DHCP but IPv6 is static,
it makes no sense to block IPv6 configuration from proceeding
just because DHCPv4 cannot.
When no slave is present, dynamic IP configuration (DHCPv4, DHCPv6,

it makes no sense to block IPv6 configuration from proceeding
just because DHCPv4 cannot.
If, for example, a bond interface has dynamic IPv4 configuration
and static IPv6 configuration, then without slaves IPv6 config
can proceed but IPv4 cannot until a slave is present. Allow
subclasses to postpone a specific IP configuration path until
they're ready, but let others proceed.
We don't need to check device state here because the manager, which
is the only thing that calls nm_device_activate() in
internal_activate_device() ensures that the device is deactivated
before starting a new activation request.
Allows to attach any connection to a bridge using the BRIDGE= key.
IP configuration is optional for bridge components but not
prohibited. Test case included.
Provides functions to create and delete bridging devices and
to attach/detach slaves from bridging devices.
It currently relies on the ioctl() kernel interface. The long
term goal is to use the netlink interface for this.
This function gets used for both /proc/sys (ie, sysctl) and for
sysfs attributes. There are two issues with it:
1) most sysctl values don't care about a trailing LF, but some
sysfs attributes (infiniband) do; so we always have to add the
trailing LF. Just move that into the function to ensure that
callers don't forget to add it.
2) neither sysfs or sysctl support partial writes, while the
existing function did partial writes. Practically, both the
write handlers for sysfs and sysctl should always handle all
the data, but if they don't, partial writes are wrong. So
instead, try three times to write all the data.
Can't leave the backup files lying around when doing 'make distcheck',
so when backup up a file, return the backup file path so that the
caller can (optionally) remove it.
If the certificate path from the supplicant config is not absolute,
we need to make it absolute. When building with a different builddir,
the certificate from the supplicant config is actually in the srcdir,
but the builddir is the current PWD.
Recent automake versions switched to not creating empty directories,
but at the moment NetworkManager g_warning()s on startup if it doesn't
find $(pkglibdir). So let's make it.
