Overview of changes since NetworkManager-1.10
=============================================
This is a snapshot of NetworkManager 1.10 development series.
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR PRODUCTION USE!
Notable changes included in this snapshot so far include:
* Improved support for configuration checkpoint, including support in libnm.
* Added capability to set IP Tunnel configuration flags.
* The systemd-resolved DNS plugins now supports MDNS.
* systemd-resolved and dnsmasq DNS plugins now honor the DNS priority setting.
* Wi-Fi devices now support FILS for speedier roaming support.
* Add support for "onlink" routes
* More robust connectivity checking.
* Dropped the obsolete "ifnet" settings plugin
* Try harder to generate reasonable human-readable names for devices even if
the hwdb contains garbage.
* Add an "overview" option to hide default values in nmcli, resulting in more
concise output.
* Reworked the inner workings of D-Bus interface for better resource efficiency.
* Add support for configuring nmcli coloring via terminal-colors.d(5).
* Added experimental support for Meson build system
* Added initial IWD Wi-Fi daemon support
* A non-hexadecimal DHCPv4 client-id is now properly passed to
dhclient with the first byte (type) set to zero, as stated in the
documentation. This represents a change in behavior since previous
versions where the first character of the string was used as
type. The internal client is not affected by the change.
The following features were backported to 1.10.x releases from 1.10.0 to
1.10.8 are also present in NetworkManager-1.12:
* Fix connectivity timeout handling (bgo #794464)
* Retry activating devices when the parent becomes managed (rh #1553595)
* Correctly set the rp_filter value (rh #1565529)
* A fix to ensure teamd is respawned after daemon restart (rh #1551958)
* Better handle DHCP expiry (bgo #783391)
* Fix configuration of IPv6 over master interfaces (rh #1575944)
* ovs: fix compilation issue of OVS plugin and various fixes
* team: add support for team runner "random"
* core: cleanup activation of device (rh #1537160)
* dhcp: retry indefinitely to renew the lease (rh #1503587)
* core: fix blocking autoconnect for no-secrets (rh #794014)
* libnm: mark async results as cancelled (bgo #794088)
* Load jansson at runtime. This solves a clash with json-glib that caused
a gnome-control-center crash, but also gets rid of a hard dependency.
* Correct nmcli exit values after receiving a signal.
* Fix libnm secret agent asynchronous initialization.
* Add a default route for a modem even if it didn't sent a gateway.
* Improve communication of DAD failures.
* Remember device default metrics across daemon restarts.
* Various bug fixes including possible crashes.
* Added support for 'onlink' IPv4 routes attribute.
* Wait longer for the carrier to come up after a MTU change.
* Implemented abstraction for team connections that exposes team
configuration items as distinct properties.
* Added basic support for tc queueing disciplines and filters.
* Introduced an Update2() D-Bus method to update connection settings
with more flexibility.
* Many bug fixes and improvements.
