Description

The NMSettingBond object is a NMSetting subclass that describes properties necessary for bond connections.

Functions

nm_setting_bond_new ()

NMSetting *
nm_setting_bond_new (void);

Creates a new NMSettingBond object with default values.

Returns

the new empty NMSettingBond object.

[transfer full]

nm_setting_bond_get_num_options ()

guint32
nm_setting_bond_get_num_options (NMSettingBond *setting);

Returns the number of options that should be set for this bond when it is activated. This can be used to retrieve each option individually using nm_setting_bond_get_option().

Parameters

setting

the NMSettingBond

Returns

the number of bonding options

nm_setting_bond_get_option ()

gboolean
nm_setting_bond_get_option (NMSettingBond *setting,
                            guint32 idx,
                            const char **out_name,
                            const char **out_value);

Given an index, return the value of the bonding option at that index. Indexes are *not* guaranteed to be static across modifications to options done by nm_setting_bond_add_option() and nm_setting_bond_remove_option(), and should not be used to refer to options except for short periods of time such as during option iteration.

Parameters

setting	the NMSettingBond
idx	index of the desired option, from 0 to `nm_setting_bond_get_num_options()` - 1
out_name	on return, the name of the bonding option; this value is owned by the setting and should not be modified.	[out][transfer none]
out_value	on return, the value of the name of the bonding option; this value is owned by the setting and should not be modified.	[out][transfer none]

Returns

TRUE on success if the index was valid and an option was found, FALSE if the index was invalid (ie, greater than the number of options currently held by the setting)

nm_setting_bond_get_option_by_name ()

const char *
nm_setting_bond_get_option_by_name (NMSettingBond *setting,
                                    const char *name);

Returns the value associated with the bonding option specified by name , if it exists.

Parameters

setting	the NMSettingBond
name	the option name for which to retrieve the value

Returns

the value, or NULL if the key/value pair was never added to the setting; the value is owned by the setting and must not be modified

nm_setting_bond_add_option ()

gboolean
nm_setting_bond_add_option (NMSettingBond *setting,
                            const char *name,
                            const char *value);

Add an option to the table. Adding a new name replaces any existing name/value pair that may already exist.

Parameters

setting	the NMSettingBond
name	name for the option
value	value for the option

Returns

returns FALSE if either name or value is NULL, in that case the option is not set. Otherwise, the function does not fail and does not validate the arguments. All validation happens via nm_connection_verify() or do basic validation yourself with nm_setting_bond_validate_option().

Note: Before 1.30, libnm would perform basic validation of the name and the value via nm_setting_bond_validate_option() and reject the request by returning FALSE. Since 1.30, libnm no longer rejects any values as the setter is not supposed to perform validation.

nm_setting_bond_remove_option ()

gboolean
nm_setting_bond_remove_option (NMSettingBond *setting,
                               const char *name);

Remove the bonding option referenced by name from the internal option list.

Parameters

setting	the NMSettingBond
name	name of the option to remove

Returns

TRUE if the option was found and removed from the internal option list, FALSE if it was not.

nm_setting_bond_validate_option ()

gboolean
nm_setting_bond_validate_option (const char *name,
                                 const char *value);

Checks whether name is a valid bond option and value is a valid value for the name . If value is NULL, the function only validates the option name.

Parameters

name	the name of the option to validate
value	the value of the option to validate.	[allow-none]

Returns

TRUE, if the value is valid for the given name. If the name is not a valid option, FALSE will be returned.

nm_setting_bond_get_valid_options ()

const char **
nm_setting_bond_get_valid_options (NMSettingBond *setting);

Returns a list of valid bond options.

The setting argument is unused and may be passed as NULL.

Parameters

setting

the NMSettingBond.

[allow-none]

Returns

a NULL-terminated array of strings of valid bond options.

[transfer none]

nm_setting_bond_get_option_default ()

const char *
nm_setting_bond_get_option_default (NMSettingBond *setting,
                                    const char *name);

Parameters

setting	the NMSettingBond
name	the name of the option

Returns

the value of the bond option if not overridden by an entry in the “options” property.

nm_setting_bond_get_option_normalized ()

const char *
nm_setting_bond_get_option_normalized (NMSettingBond *setting,
                                       const char *name);

Parameters

setting	the NMSettingBond
name	the name of the option

Returns

the value of the bond option after normalization, which is what NetworkManager will actually apply when activating the connection. NULL if the option won't be applied to the connection.

Since: 1.24
