There is a series of systemd related autopkgtest regressions listed for this upload. At first glance those seem to be unrelated as the test suite is generally flaky, but I'd like someone to take a look at those and double confirm before we release this to the world.

This is something requested by some OEM projects, for bionic server images. NM 1.12 supports configuring this feature, so this can be achieved by backporting that support to 1.10 (bionic version). These are the MPs for cosmic and bionic: https://code.launchpad.net/~alfonsosanchezbeato/network-manager/+git/network-manager/+merge/349468 https://code.launchpad.net/~alfonsosanchezbeato/network-manager/+git/network-manager/+merge/349465 [Test Case] First, the wifi card must support WoWLAN. This can be checked by running $ iw phy and searching for "WoWLAN support:" in the output. If it is supported, with the patch applied a connection configured with wowlan can be created with: $ sudo nmcli d wifi connect <ssid> password <password> $ sudo nmcli c modify <ssid> 802-11-wireless.wake-on-wlan 8 $ sudo nmcli c down <ssid> $ sudo nmcli c up <ssid> We can check with 'iw' that WoWLAN is active for the connection: $ iw phy phy0 wowlan show WoWLAN is enabled: * wake up on magic packet In this case we have configured the connection to wake up the system when a 'magic' packet is received. We can then suspend the system with $ sudo systemctl suspend And we should be able to wake the system from another device with the command $ sudo etherwake -i <wifi_iface> <destination_MAC_address> [Regression Potential] Although the patch is not especially small, it is a backport of changes that have been merged upstream, with very little modifications to make it compile in 1.10. It is also a rather isolated feature that should not conflict with existing ones. The feature will be activated only if configured from the command line, so the risk of regressions should be small. Note also that the patch will be removed as soon as Ubuntu moves to NM 1.12.
