-Plugins generally have three components:
-
-1) plugin object: manages the individual "connections", which are
-  just objects wrapped around on-disk config data.  The plugin handles requests
-  to add new connections via the NM D-Bus API, and also watches config
-  directories for changes to configuration data.  It also handles reading and
-  writing the persistent hostname, if the plugin supports hostnames.  Plugins
-  implement the NMSystemConfigInterface interface.  See plugin.c.
-
-2) "connections": subclasses of NMSettingsConnection.  They handle updates to
-  configuration data, deletion, etc.  See NMExampleConnection.c.
-
-3) reader/writer code: typically a separate static library that gets linked
-  into the main plugin shared object, so they can be unit tested separately
-  from the plugin.  This code should read config data from disk and create
-  an NMConnection from it, and be capable of taking an NMConnection and writing
-  out appropriate configuration data to disk.
-
-NM will first call the "factory" function that every module must provide, which
-is nm_system_config_factory().  That function creates and returns a singleton
-instance of the plugin's main object, which implements NMSystemConfigInterface.
-That interface is implemented via the object definition in G_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED
-in plugin.c, which registers the interface setup function
-system_config_interface_init(), which when called actually sets up the vtables
-for the functions defined by NMSystemConfigInterface.  Thus there are two
-entry points into the plugin:  nm_system_config_factory() and
-the NMSystemConfigInterface methods.
-
-The plugin also emits various signals (defined by NMSystemConfigInterface)
-which NetworkManager listens for.  These include persistent hostname changes
-(if something modified the file in which the persistent hostname is stored)
-and notifications of new connections if they were created via changes to
-the on-disk files.  The "connection" objects can also emit signals
-(defined by the NMSettingsConnection and NMConnection superclasses) when the
-connections' backing storage gets changed or deleted.
