We'll want to eventually match (for VLAN) a given hardware address
that's not the device's hardware address. Only the device itself
knows which NMSetting should contain it's hardware address (ie
the 'wired' setting for NMDeviceEthernet, 'infiniband' for
NMDeviceInfiniband, etc) and VLANs take their hardware address
from the parent interface. So eventually we'll have VLAN
interfaces use these new arguments to ask their parent interface
to match the VLAN hardware address in a connection, since the
VLAN doesn't know (or need to know) what kind of interface it
really is underneath.
Rather than generating enum classes by hand (and complaining in each
file that "this should really be standard"), use glib-mkenums.
Unfortunately, we need a very new version of glib-mkenums in order to
deal with NM's naming conventions and to fix a few other bugs, so just
import that into the source tree temporarily.
Also, to simplify the use of glib-mkenums, import Makefile.glib from
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/654395.
To avoid having to run glib-mkenums for every subdirectory of src/,
add a new "generated" directory, and put the generated enums files
there.
Finally, use Makefile.glib for marshallers too, and generate separate
ones for libnm-glib and NetworkManager.
Shortcut to access the connection linked to the activation
request of a device.
The patch only replaces usage with nm_device_get_connection()
if the existing code assumes that an activation request must
be available.
