![]() A common source for doubts and questions from users is about why devices are unmanaged. Unfortunately NM doesn't expose that information properly via D-Bus and so it's not available in nmcli. The device D-Bus object has two properties that are strictly related: "state" and "state-reason". The latter represents the reason for the current state. Introduce new reasons to indicate the possible causes for the unmanaged state. Note that a device can be unmanaged because of multiple reasons at the same time, we only return one. Before: $ nmcli -f GENERAL.DEVICE,GENERAL.TYPE,GENERAL.STATE,GENERAL.reason device show GENERAL.DEVICE: enp7s0 GENERAL.TYPE: ethernet GENERAL.STATE: 10 (unmanaged) GENERAL.REASON: 0 (No reason given) GENERAL.DEVICE: tun0 GENERAL.TYPE: tun GENERAL.STATE: 10 (unmanaged) GENERAL.REASON: 0 (No reason given) GENERAL.DEVICE: hwsim0 GENERAL.TYPE: unknown GENERAL.STATE: 10 (unmanaged) GENERAL.REASON: 0 (No reason given) After: $ nmcli -f GENERAL.DEVICE,GENERAL.TYPE,GENERAL.STATE,GENERAL.reason device show GENERAL.DEVICE: enp7s0 GENERAL.TYPE: ethernet GENERAL.STATE: 10 (unmanaged) GENERAL.REASON: 76 (The device is unmanaged by user decision via settings plugin ("unmanaged-devices" for keyfile or "NM_CONTROLLED=no" for ifcfg-rh)) GENERAL.DEVICE: tun0 GENERAL.TYPE: tun GENERAL.STATE: 10 (unmanaged) GENERAL.REASON: 75 (The device is unmanaged by explicit user decision (e.g. 'nmcli device set $DEV managed no') GENERAL.DEVICE: hwsim0 GENERAL.TYPE: unknown GENERAL.STATE: 10 (unmanaged) GENERAL.REASON: 69 (The device is unmanaged because the device type is unmanaged by default) https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/merge_requests/1887 |

src/
Most of the subdirectories are static helper libraries, which get linked into one of the final build artifacts (like libnm, nmcli or NetworkManager). Static libraries are internal API.
The only public API is libnm, which is a shared library provided client implementations.
Our own clients (like nmcli and nmtui) also use libnm, the shared library. But they also use additional static helper libraries.
The daemon statically links against a part of libnm, the part that provides connection profiles. That is libnm-core. libnm-core is thus statically linked with libnm and the daemon. It does not get linked by clients that already link with libnm (like nmtui).
