The state of the device.
An operating-system specific device hardware identifier; this is not unique to a specific hardware device across reboots or hotplugs. It is an opaque string which for some device types (Bluetooth, Modem) contains an identifier provided by the underlying hardware service daemon such as Bluez or ModemManager, and clients can use this property to request more information about the device from those services.
The vendor string of the device.
Creates a binding between source_property on source and target_property
on target.
Whenever the source_property is changed the target_property is
updated using the same value. For instance:
g_object_bind_property (action, "active", widget, "sensitive", 0);
Will result in the "sensitive" property of the widget #GObject instance to be updated with the same value of the "active" property of the action #GObject instance.
If flags contains %G_BINDING_BIDIRECTIONAL then the binding will be mutual:
if target_property on target changes then the source_property on source
will be updated as well.
The binding will automatically be removed when either the source or the
target instances are finalized. To remove the binding without affecting the
source and the target you can just call g_object_unref() on the returned
#GBinding instance.
Removing the binding by calling g_object_unref() on it must only be done if
the binding, source and target are only used from a single thread and it
is clear that both source and target outlive the binding. Especially it
is not safe to rely on this if the binding, source or target can be
finalized from different threads. Keep another reference to the binding and
use g_binding_unbind() instead to be on the safe side.

Validates a given connection for a given #NMDevice object and returns
whether the connection may be activated with the device. For example if
device is a Wi-Fi device that supports only WEP encryption, the connection
will only be valid if it is a Wi-Fi connection which describes a WEP or open
network, and will not be valid if it describes a WPA network, or if it is
an Ethernet, Bluetooth, WWAN, etc connection that is incompatible with the
device.
This function does the same as nm_device_connection_valid(), i.e. checking compatibility of the given device and connection. But, in addition, it sets GError when FALSE is returned.
an #NMConnection to validate against device
Validates a given connection for a given #NMDevice object and returns
whether the connection may be activated with the device. For example if
device is a Wi-Fi device that supports only WEP encryption, the connection
will only be valid if it is a Wi-Fi connection which describes a WEP or open
network, and will not be valid if it describes a WPA network, or if it is
an Ethernet, Bluetooth, WWAN, etc connection that is incompatible with the
device.

Filters a given list of connections for a given #NMDevice object and return
connections which may be activated with the device. For example if device
is a Wi-Fi device that supports only WEP encryption, the returned list will
contain any Wi-Fi connections in connections that allow connection to
unencrypted or WEP-enabled SSIDs. The returned list will not contain
Ethernet, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi WPA connections, or any other connection that is
incompatible with the device. To get the full list of connections see
nm_remote_settings_list_connections().

This function is intended for #GObject implementations to re-enforce a [floating][floating-ref] object reference. Doing this is seldom required: all #GInitiallyUnowneds are created with a floating reference which usually just needs to be sunken by calling g_object_ref_sink().
Increases the freeze count on object. If the freeze count is
non-zero, the emission of "notify" signals on object is
stopped. The signals are queued until the freeze count is decreased
to zero. Duplicate notifications are squashed so that at most one
#GObject::notify signal is emitted for each property modified while the
object is frozen.
This is necessary for accessors that modify multiple properties to prevent premature notification while the object is still being modified.

Whether the #NMDevice is managed by NetworkManager.
Gets the MTU of the #NMDevice.

Gets the physical port ID of the #NMDevice. If non-%NULL, this is an opaque string that can be used to recognize when seemingly-unrelated #NMDevices are actually just different virtual ports on a single physical port. (Eg, NPAR / SR-IOV.)
Gets the product string of the #NMDevice.
Gets a property of an object.
The value can be:
In general, a copy is made of the property contents and the caller is responsible for freeing the memory by calling g_value_unset().

Initializes the object implementing the interface.
This method is intended for language bindings. If writing in C, g_initable_new() should typically be used instead.
The object must be initialized before any real use after initial construction, either with this function or g_async_initable_init_async().
Implementations may also support cancellation. If cancellable is not %NULL,
then initialization can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable object
from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error
%G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED will be returned. If cancellable is not %NULL and
the object doesn't support cancellable initialization the error
%G_IO_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED will be returned.
If the object is not initialized, or initialization returns with an error, then all operations on the object except g_object_ref() and g_object_unref() are considered to be invalid, and have undefined behaviour. See the [introduction][ginitable] for more details.
Callers should not assume that a class which implements #GInitable can be initialized multiple times, unless the class explicitly documents itself as supporting this. Generally, a class’ implementation of init() can assume (and assert) that it will only be called once. Previously, this documentation recommended all #GInitable implementations should be idempotent; that recommendation was relaxed in GLib 2.54.
If a class explicitly supports being initialized multiple times, it is recommended that the method is idempotent: multiple calls with the same arguments should return the same results. Only the first call initializes the object; further calls return the result of the first call.
One reason why a class might need to support idempotent initialization is if it is designed to be used via the singleton pattern, with a #GObjectClass.constructor that sometimes returns an existing instance. In this pattern, a caller would expect to be able to call g_initable_init() on the result of g_object_new(), regardless of whether it is in fact a new instance.
optional #GCancellable object, %NULL to ignore.
Starts asynchronous initialization of the object implementing the interface. This must be done before any real use of the object after initial construction. If the object also implements #GInitable you can optionally call g_initable_init() instead.
This method is intended for language bindings. If writing in C, g_async_initable_new_async() should typically be used instead.
When the initialization is finished, callback will be called. You can
then call g_async_initable_init_finish() to get the result of the
initialization.
Implementations may also support cancellation. If cancellable is not
%NULL, then initialization can be cancelled by triggering the cancellable
object from another thread. If the operation was cancelled, the error
%G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED will be returned. If cancellable is not %NULL, and
the object doesn't support cancellable initialization, the error
%G_IO_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED will be returned.
As with #GInitable, if the object is not initialized, or initialization returns with an error, then all operations on the object except g_object_ref() and g_object_unref() are considered to be invalid, and have undefined behaviour. They will often fail with g_critical() or g_warning(), but this must not be relied on.
Callers should not assume that a class which implements #GAsyncInitable can be initialized multiple times; for more information, see g_initable_init(). If a class explicitly supports being initialized multiple times, implementation requires yielding all subsequent calls to init_async() on the results of the first call.
For classes that also support the #GInitable interface, the default implementation of this method will run the g_initable_init() function in a thread, so if you want to support asynchronous initialization via threads, just implement the #GAsyncInitable interface without overriding any interface methods.

Emits a "notify" signal for the property property_name on object.
When possible, eg. when signaling a property change from within the class that registered the property, you should use g_object_notify_by_pspec() instead.
Note that emission of the notify signal may be blocked with g_object_freeze_notify(). In this case, the signal emissions are queued and will be emitted (in reverse order) when g_object_thaw_notify() is called.
the name of a property installed on the class of object.
Emits a "notify" signal for the property specified by pspec on object.
This function omits the property name lookup, hence it is faster than g_object_notify().
One way to avoid using g_object_notify() from within the class that registered the properties, and using g_object_notify_by_pspec() instead, is to store the GParamSpec used with g_object_class_install_property() inside a static array, e.g.:
enum
{
PROP_0,
PROP_FOO,
PROP_LAST
};
static GParamSpec *properties[PROP_LAST];
static void
my_object_class_init (MyObjectClass *klass)
{
properties[PROP_FOO] = g_param_spec_int ("foo", "Foo", "The foo",
0, 100,
50,
G_PARAM_READWRITE);
g_object_class_install_property (gobject_class,
PROP_FOO,
properties[PROP_FOO]);
}
and then notify a change on the "foo" property with:
g_object_notify_by_pspec (self, properties[PROP_FOO]);
the #GParamSpec of a property installed on the class of object.
Increase the reference count of object, and possibly remove the
[floating][floating-ref] reference, if object has a floating reference.
In other words, if the object is floating, then this call "assumes ownership" of the floating reference, converting it to a normal reference by clearing the floating flag while leaving the reference count unchanged. If the object is not floating, then this call adds a new normal reference increasing the reference count by one.
Since GLib 2.56, the type of object will be propagated to the return type
under the same conditions as for g_object_ref().
Releases all references to other objects. This can be used to break reference cycles.
This function should only be called from object system implementations.
Enables or disables automatic activation of the #NMDevice.

Each object carries around a table of associations from strings to pointers. This function lets you set an association.
If the object already had an association with that name, the old association will be destroyed.
Internally, the key is converted to a #GQuark using g_quark_from_string().
This means a copy of key is kept permanently (even after object has been
finalized) — so it is recommended to only use a small, bounded set of values
for key in your program, to avoid the #GQuark storage growing unbounded.

This function gets back user data pointers stored via
g_object_set_qdata() and removes the data from object
without invoking its destroy() function (if any was
set).
Usually, calling this function is only required to update
user data pointers with a destroy notifier, for example:
void
object_add_to_user_list (GObject *object,
const gchar *new_string)
{
// the quark, naming the object data
GQuark quark_string_list = g_quark_from_static_string ("my-string-list");
// retrieve the old string list
GList *list = g_object_steal_qdata (object, quark_string_list);
// prepend new string
list = g_list_prepend (list, g_strdup (new_string));
// this changed 'list', so we need to set it again
g_object_set_qdata_full (object, quark_string_list, list, free_string_list);
}
static void
free_string_list (gpointer data)
{
GList *node, *list = data;
for (node = list; node; node = node->next)
g_free (node->data);
g_list_free (list);
}
Using g_object_get_qdata() in the above example, instead of g_object_steal_qdata() would have left the destroy function set, and thus the partial string list would have been freed upon g_object_set_qdata_full().
A #GQuark, naming the user data pointer
Reverts the effect of a previous call to
g_object_freeze_notify(). The freeze count is decreased on object
and when it reaches zero, queued "notify" signals are emitted.
Duplicate notifications for each property are squashed so that at most one #GObject::notify signal is emitted for each property, in the reverse order in which they have been queued.
It is an error to call this function when the freeze count is zero.
Decreases the reference count of object. When its reference count
drops to 0, the object is finalized (i.e. its memory is freed).
If the pointer to the #GObject may be reused in future (for example, if it is an instance variable of another object), it is recommended to clear the pointer to %NULL rather than retain a dangling pointer to a potentially invalid #GObject instance. Use g_clear_object() for this.
This function essentially limits the life time of the closure to
the life time of the object. That is, when the object is finalized,
the closure is invalidated by calling g_closure_invalidate() on
it, in order to prevent invocations of the closure with a finalized
(nonexisting) object. Also, g_object_ref() and g_object_unref() are
added as marshal guards to the closure, to ensure that an extra
reference count is held on object during invocation of the
closure. Usually, this function will be called on closures that
use this object as closure data.

Find the #GParamSpec with the given name for an
interface. Generally, the interface vtable passed in as g_iface
will be the default vtable from g_type_default_interface_ref(), or,

name of a property to look up.
Add a property to an interface; this is only useful for interfaces that are added to GObject-derived types. Adding a property to an interface forces all objects classes with that interface to have a compatible property. The compatible property could be a newly created #GParamSpec, but normally g_object_class_override_property() will be used so that the object class only needs to provide an implementation and inherits the property description, default value, bounds, and so forth from the interface property.
This function is meant to be called from the interface's default
vtable initialization function (the class_init member of
#GTypeInfo.) It must not be called after after class_init has
been called for any object types implementing this interface.
If pspec is a floating reference, it will be consumed.
