Function utils_check_virtual_device_compatibility 

pub fn utils_check_virtual_device_compatibility(
    virtual_type: Type,
    other_type: Type,
) -> bool

Determines if a connection of type @virtual_type can (in the general case) work with connections of type @other_type.

If @virtual_type is NM_TYPE_SETTING_VLAN, then this checks if @other_type is a valid type for the parent of a VLAN.

If @virtual_type is a “controller” type (eg, NM_TYPE_SETTING_BRIDGE), then this checks if @other_type is a valid type for a port of that controller.

Note that even if this returns true it is not guaranteed that every connection of type @other_type is compatible with @virtual_type; it may depend on the exact configuration of the two connections, or on the capabilities of an underlying device driver.

virtual_type

a virtual connection type

other_type

a connection type to test against @virtual_type

Returns

true or false
