Hello Stephen!

The patches branch of the debian packaging repo, at
git://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/pkg-iproute, now has four patches still
pending. (Not resending, since they've all been posted multiple times before.
Pick them up from the repo if you're interested.)

Here's the latest addition:

commit 3c904bb5933257533f4afecf805ca5a548a8e885
Author: Andreas Henriksson <andreas@fatal.se>
Date:   Fri Feb 22 13:57:10 2008 +0100

    Fix typo (syntax error) in ip(8) manpage.

    Caught by lintian (debian package checker).

Small typo from last change to decode filters. Should print dport
not port.

reverse the match offset/mask values into ip header matches.

Minor warning message from missing prototype, probably because of
function name change.

Cleanup code (slightly).

This reverts commit 7ca30b78.

Since rlim isn't upstream (yet), drop it.

The prefix bit lenght value was not updated, resulting in incorrect addrlabel
entry. This patch fixes that issue.

update: Fix the spelling of "hexidecimal"

This updates the help output to specify that CLASSID should be hexidecimal.
This makes sure that a user entering "flowid 1:10" gets his flow put into
band 15 (0x10) and knows why.

Need to add include/linux/hdlc/ioctl.h because it is not present
in older releases.

A couple of obvious typo's.

Kernel won't find matching filter if protocol value not
provided.

Update the protocol table to match current kernel support.
Why is the list not in an /etc file?

Some minor header file changes headed for 2.6.25

Make sure examples actually work.

Vlan should not be in the socket section

Some usages of rtnl_send could cause errors (ie flush requests)
others do a listen afterwards.
Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen.hemminger@vyatta.com>

minor whitespace typo.

This fixes the problem where a bulk operation (like ip flush)
is performed as non-root user.  The kernel will only send a response
if there is an error, so check for it.

perror error adds a newline, so don't split error message
across two lines.

If there is a problem talking to kernel, don't retry except in the
special case of signal or -EAGAIN

This reverts commit 720a2e8d.

After further investigation it seems clear to me that reverting the
commit 720a2e8d... is the correct thing to do, since the real
fix for the problem this commit was supposed to fix was instead fixed in
commit c29391c7...

Whatever you specify after a u32 police you will now get a syntax error,
and according to "tc filter add u32 help" there are several things that
you are supposed to be able to specify after a police.

So, Steven, please revert 720a2e8d...

ss.c needs lastest version of netinet/tcp.h which probably isn't
on most distro's yet.
