Method

QmiDeviceadd_link_with_flags

since: 1.30

Declaration [src]

void
qmi_device_add_link_with_flags (
  QmiDevice* self,
  guint mux_id,
  const gchar* base_ifname,
  const gchar* ifname_prefix,
  QmiDeviceAddLinkFlags flags,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
  gpointer user_data
)

Description [src]

Asynchronously creates a new virtual network device in the same way as qmi_device_add_link() does, but passing the additional flags to the kernel during the operation.

Using QMI_DEVICE_ADD_LINK_FLAGS_NONE as flags is equivalent to calling qmi_device_add_link() directly.

If the link creation with the given set of flags is unsupported by the backend, the operation may fail.

None of the flags supported are applicable when using the multiplexing support provided by the qmi_wwan kernel driver, they are only used if using the rmnet backend for link management support. .

Available since: 1.30

This method completes asynchronously. Use qmi_device_add_link_with_flags_finish() inside the GAsyncReadyCallback to obtain the result of the operation.

Parameters

mux_id

Type: guint

The mux id for the link, in the [QMI_DEVICE_MUX_ID_MIN,QMI_DEVICE_MUX_ID_MAX] range, or QMI_DEVICE_MUX_ID_AUTOMATIC to find the first available mux id.

base_ifname

Type: const gchar*

The interface which the new link will be created on.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
ifname_prefix

Type: const gchar*

The prefix suggested to be used for the name of the new link created.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
flags

Type: QmiDeviceAddLinkFlags

Bitmask of %QmiDeviceAddLinkFlags values to pass to the kernel when creating the new link.

cancellable

Type: GCancellable

A GCancellable, or NULL.

The argument can be NULL.
The data is owned by the caller of the method.
callback

Type: GAsyncReadyCallback

A GAsyncReadyCallback to call when the operation is finished.

The argument can be NULL.
user_data

Type: gpointer

The data to pass to callback function.

The argument can be NULL.
The data is owned by the caller of the method.
