* The device state file /run/NetworkManager/devices/$ifindex now has
new sections [dhcp4] and [dhcp6] containing the DHCP options for the
current lease.
+* Add multipath TCP (MPTCP) support. NetworkManager can now configure IP addresses
+ as MPTCP endpoints. This is configurable via the "connection.mptcp-flags"
+ property. The default setting is such that MPTCP handling is automatically
+ enabled if the kernel sysctl "/proc/sys/net/mptcp/enabled" indicates so.
+ NetworkManager does not enable the MPTCP sysctl or adjust the limits (ip mptcp limits).
+ The administrator or the distribution is supposed to configure the desired system
+ settings.
+ Note that strict reverse path filtering (rp_filter) breaks many MPTCP use cases.
+ With MPTCP handling enabled, NetworkManager will relax a strict (1) rp_filter
+ to loose (2). Otherwise rp_filter is untouched by NetworkManager.
* NetworkManager expanded log messages for invalid DHCP options.
* Support "802-1x.phase1-auth-flags=tls-allow-unsafe-renegotiation" flag
for Wi-Fi.
