Make it possible to list connected stations in AP mode over D-Bus,
along
with some of their properties: rx/tx packets, bytes, capabilities,
etc.
It looks like this patch changes the signal signature of
StaAuthorized/StaDeauthorized, is that correct? That won't be
backwards compatible with existing D-Bus clients and we should probably
choose new signal names to allow old clients to continue working.
Hmm, indeed it does, and it probably shouldn’t. What would you call a
new signal with the new signature?
Mathieu, what applications rely on the proposed new signature of this
signal?
Sorry for the spam, I accidentally hit the send button.
I don't think that Mathieu (or anyone else) knows the full list of
applications relying on the current signature of this particular D-Bus
signal. Here is an example of code which I'm sure Mathieu wasn't aware of:
https://git.merproject.org/mer-core/libgsupplicant/blob/master/src/gsupplicant_interface.c#L1987
Please don't break backward compatibility. It's not cool.
Cheers,
