Revised version of Mike's original patch

Ignore files from cscope, patch, etc.

A bunch of source files look like they're copy & pasted from other files,
and some include header files that they don't actually need.  Since dlfcn
has very specific usage (and is a pain on a static-only system), drop it
where it isn't really needed.
Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>

The iptables code supports a "no shared libs" mode where it can be used
without requiring dlfcn related functionality.  This adds similar support
to iproute2 so that it can easily be used on systems like nommu Linux (but
obviously with a few limitations -- no dynamic plugins).

Rather than modify every location that uses dlfcn.h, I hooked the dlfcn.h
header with stub functions when shared library support is disabled.  Then
symbol lookup is done via a local static lookup table (which is generated
automatically at build time) so that internal symbols can be found.

A bunch of misc utils basically reimplement the daemon() function (the
whole fork/close/chdir/etc...).  Rather than do that, use daemon() as
that will work under nommu Linux systems that lack fork().

It uses 1MB as receive buf limit by default (without
increasing /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max it will be limited by less
however) and allows to specify the size manually using "-rcvbuf X"
(-r is already used, so you need to specify at least -rc).

Additionally rtnl_listen() continues on ENOBUFS after printing the
error message.

I experienced an error, if I try to perform a

  ip route flush proto 4

with many routes in a complex environment, it
gave me the following error:

  Failed to send flush request: Success
  Flush terminated

Doing one item per call is like old MODULA2 code.

Hi Stephen,

please review attached patch to add support for in-kernel potential router=
=20
lists for ISATAP tunnels.

Usage:
ip tunnel add name isatap0 mode isatap local 192.168.1.100
ip tunnel prl dev isatap0 prl-default 192.168.1.1
ip tunnel prl dev isatap0 prl-nodefault 192.168.1.2
ip tunnel prl dev isatap0 prl-delete 192.168.1.1
ip tunnel show # pr and pdr will be listed as well

Patch based on http://osprey67.com/seal/iproute2_diff.v0_3.txt by Fred L.=20
Templin.

Thanks,
Sascha

Sometimes while dividing bandwidth by classes it is useful to see how some
specific class doing things live.

Which my simple patch it is possible to do
watch -n1 "tc -s -d class show dev eth0.2022 classid 1:1520"
and to get live statistics, how packets queued or dropped, and how much
bandwidth used (if estimator defined) for specific class.

Callers need to check return value from ll_addr_a2n(). Patch below.

To emulate WRED behaviour, allow default DP of zero.

Use existing u32 mechanism to match based on Ethernet header.
No need for protocol that already exists.

When using iproute2 to display information on policies installed in kernel
(ip x p s) output is incorrect: IPv6 addresses printed as IPv4 addresses.
In case I am dealing with inter protocol policies where the template's address
family differs from those of the policy itself.
The patch attached solves this problem.

Stephen,

iproute2 part of the cgroup classifier that has been included upstream
for a while. Please apply.

Hello Stephen,

thanks für the commit of my last CAN patch.

Today i got a hint, that the help text of 'ip link' can be improved also.

Many thanks!

The selector logic is clearer with if / else if

arpd requires a directory (/var/lib/arpd/) to run.
see attached patch, which lets iproute create this directroy during install.

t's not a big problem, but it makes a better show in 'ip link show' on
CAN interfaces :-)

I also moved __PF(CAN,can) in ll_proto.c to the same position where it
can be found in if_ether.h .

The only thing i did not know if the __PF(CAN,can) in ll_types.c needs
to be put in #ifdef ARPHDR_CAN like __PF(HWX25,hwx25) is or not. You
definitely know that better than me.

"ip -6 tunnel show" displays only ip6ip6 tunnels not ip4ip6 tunnels
 - it should display all irrespective of proto.

This is because the default tunnel proto is initialized to IPPROTO_IPV6 in ip6_tnl_parm_init() which is fine for a 'add' command but not for 'show'. This patch overrides proto with 0 signifying 'mode any' as the default in case of a 'show'.

please commit my patch below to the iproutes package. It just an incorrect
check so that adding an isatap tunnel with remote works, since it's needed if
one wants to use stateless autoconf. The current check makes tunnel mode
isatap unusable for all client users.

Hello Stephen and netdev people!

Currently you can configure "equalize" and it looks all fine and dandy.
The kernel has the interface defined, but apparently there's never actually
been any implementation for it (only a never merged patch in the 2.4 era).

I'm suggesting to drop the code to give any potential users of this feature
the benefit of receiving a proper error message. I see it unlikely that
this will be implemented in the near future, but if it ever happens
reviving the iproute2 side should be as easy as git revert this patch.
