Abstract: An event is detected at a first device. Responsive to the detection, at least some functionality of the first device is deactivated. The presence of a second device, cryptographically paired with the first device, is detected by the first device. Responsive to the detection, at least some functionality of the first device is activated or reactivated.

Abstract: Techniques for electronic devices to control a multipath transmission control protocol (MPTCP) connection. An MPTCP connection between two endpoints may be established. The MPTCP connection may include at least one MPTCP subflow. At least one of the endpoints may be configured to act as a master with respect to the MPTCP connection. The master may perform one or more control operations on the MPTCP connection, while if one of the endpoints is not a master, that endpoint may not perform control operations on the MPTCP connection. The control operations may include initiating or establishing new MPTCP subflows or modifying a priority level of one or more MPTCP subflows of the MPTCP connection.

Abstract: In some implementations, a network daemon can manage access to a mobile device's network interface. The network daemon (e.g., network connection managing process) can monitor the condition of the mobile device's network connection on one or more interfaces. The network daemon can monitor many conditions on the mobile device. The network daemon can receive background networking requests from network clients (e.g., processes, applications) that specify criteria for initiating a network connection. The network daemon can then smartly manage network connections taking into account network conditions, mobile device conditions and/or client criteria received in the client request. This can help reduce battery life impact, memory usage, likelihood of call drops, data usage cost, and load on network operators.

Abstract translation: 用于电子设备控制多路传输控制协议（MPTCP）连接的技术。 可以建立两个端点之间的MPTCP连接。 MPTCP连接可以包括至少一个MPTCP子流。 端点中的至少一个可以被配置为相对于MPTCP连接充当主机。 主机可以在MPTCP连接上执行一个或多个控制操作，而如果其中一个端点不是主机，则该端点可能不对MPTCP连接执行控制操作。 控制操作可以包括启动或建立新的MPTCP子流或修改MPTCP连接的一个或多个MPTCP子流的优先级。

Abstract: An method, apparatus and machine readable medium are described for intelligently selecting a network interface. An attempt may be made to connect over a first network interface having the highest priority (e.g., WiFi). At the same time, a fallback timer is started. If the attempt to connect over the first network interface does not succeed within a designated timer threshold, then a parallel attempt is made to connect over a second network interface having a lower priority (e.g., cellular). The first network interface over which a connection is successfully made is then used. These techniques may be employed on a per-connection basis. Thus, a first process may successfully connect over the first network interface while a second process may be unsuccessful over the first network interface but may fall back to the second network interface.

Abstract translation: 描述了用于智能地选择网络接口的方法，装置和机器可读介质。 可以尝试通过具有最高优先级的第一网络接口（例如，WiFi）进行连接。 同时，启动后备计时器。 如果通过第一网络接口连接的尝试在指定的定时器阈值内不成功，则并行尝试通过具有较低优先级（例如，蜂窝）的第二网络接口进行连接。 然后使用成功建立连接的第一个网络接口。 这些技术可以在每个连接的基础上使用。 因此，第一进程可以成功地通过第一网络接口连接，而第二进程可能在第一网络接口上不成功，但是可能落回到第二网络接口。
