If the command line or NetworkManager.conf mentions a non-existent
domain, just print a warning and ignore it. That way if you switch to
using an older NM that doesn't have that domain, it will still work.
Create the new nm-platform framework and implement link (or interface)
management. The nm-platform serves as the point of contact between
the rest of NetworkManager and the operating system.
There are two backends for nm-platform:
* NMFakePlatform: Fake kernel backend for testing purposes
* NMLinuxPlatform: Linux kernel backend for actual use
A comprehensive testsuite is included and will be extended with new
feature additions. To enable the Linux part of the testsuite, use
--enable-tests=root configure options and run 'make check' as root.
Use --enable-code-coverage for code coverage support.
./autogen.sh --enable-tests=root --enable-code-coverage
make
make -C src/platform check-code-coverage
Link features:
* Retrieve the list of links
* Translate between indexes and names
* Discover device type
* Add/remove dummy interfaces (for testing)
