Which it does whenever the 'bonding' module gets loaded no matter
what name the user wants to give the new bond interface.
Ported nm-system fix from commit 7cc95d8, using system() to avoid
dependency on NM libs.
Automatic test included. You have to run 'rmmod bonding' before testing
to ensure that the module is not already inserted. Second run without
rmmod always succeeds.
Extend nm-platform to support IPv4 and IPv6 route management.
Route features:
* Retrieve the list of IPv4 and IPv6 routes
* Add/delete/lookup IPv4 and IPv6 routes
* Flush all non-linklocal routes
Extend nm-platform to support IPv4 and IPv6 address management.
Address features:
* Retrieve the list of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
* Add/delete/lookup IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
* Flush all non-linklocal addresses
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)
