Sorry, I dont really understand the code that well, can I assume that the
"enum" means we take each line as the next reason code? (see my comments
below)
typedef enum {
/* No reason given */
NM_DEVICE_STATE_REASON_NONE = 0,
/* Unknown error */
NM_DEVICE_STATE_REASON_UNKNOWN, <<-- reason code 1?
/* Device is now managed */
NM_DEVICE_STATE_REASON_NOW_MANAGED, <<-- reason code 2?
Thanks
