Pull request overview

This PR aims to prevent a NetworkManager crash during standby/shutdown on RDKE by avoiding assertions in NMPolicy::dispose() and cleaning up internal state instead, delivered as a Yocto patch applied to NetworkManager 1.43.7.

Changes:

  • Add a downstream patch to src/core/nm-policy.c to clear the auto-activation list and unregister devices during dispose().
  • Update the Yocto networkmanager_1.43.7.bb recipe to apply the new patch.
