Add a new "path" property to the match setting, which can be used to
restrict a connection to devices with a given hardware path. The new
property is a list of patterns that are matched against the ID_PATH
udev property of devices.
ID_PATH represents the topological persistent path of a device and
typically contains a subsystem string (pci, usb, platform, etc.) and a
subsystem-specific identifier. Some examples of paths are:
pci-0000:00:02.0
pci-0000:00:14.0-usb-0:5:1.0
platform-1c40000.ethernet
systemd-networkd also has a "Path=" option to match a device by udev
ID_PATH.
Add a new "driver" match option to nm-settings. It allows to disable a
network connection configuration if a pattern is found or is not found
in the device driver name.
Add a new "kernel-command-line" match option to nm-settings. It allows
to disable a network connection configuration if a pattern is found or
is not found in /proc/cmdline.
We no longer add these. If you use Emacs, configure it yourself.
Also, due to our "smart-tab" usage the editor anyway does a subpar
job handling our tabs. However, on the upside every user can choose
whatever tab-width he/she prefers. If "smart-tabs" are used properly
(like we do), every tab-width will work.
No manual changes, just ran commands:
F=($(git grep -l -e '-\*-'))
sed '1 { /\/\* *-\*- *[mM]ode.*\*\/$/d }' -i "${F[@]}"
sed '1,4 { /^\(#\|--\|dnl\) *-\*- [mM]ode/d }' -i "${F[@]}"
Check remaining lines with:
git grep -e '-\*-'
The ultimate purpose of this is to cleanup our files and eventually use
SPDX license identifiers. For that, first get rid of the boilerplate lines.
Order the code in our common way. No other changes.
- ensure to include the main header first (directly after
"nm-default.h").
- reorder function definitions: get_property(), set_property(),
*_init(), *_new(), finalize(), *_class_init().
Add a new 'match' setting containing properties to match a connection
to devices. At the moment only the interface-name property is present
and, contrary to connection.interface-name, it allows the use of
wildcards.
