The kernel interface changed just before 2.6.34 was released. This brings
iproute2 in line with the current changes. The VF portion of setlink is
comprised of a set of nested attributes.

IPv6 addresses that have IFA_F_SECONDARY set are actually temporary addresses,
hence the IFA_F_TEMPORARY equivalent. Change the output in this case and
allow filtering on the word "temporary".

Unless promote_secondaries has been active deleting the primary address of
an interface will automatically delete all the secondary addresses.
In the case where ip flush requests the primary then secondary addresses to
be removed - which is the order the addresses are returned by the kernel -
this will cause an error as by the time the request to remove a secondary
address is made it will be missing as it will have been deleted in the
course of deleting the primary address.
This approach to solving this problem orders requests for the
deletion of secondary addresses before primary ones providing
rtnl_dump_filter_l(), a version of rtnl_dump_filter() that
iterates over a list of filters. And by providing two specialised
filters print_addrinfo_secondary() and print_addrinfo_primary().
rtnl_dump_filter_l() first iterates over all addresses using
print_addrinfo_secondary(), which appends secondary addresses to the
request buffer. Then again using print_addrinfo_primary() which appends
primary addresses.
This approach should work regardless of it promote_secondaries is
active or not. And regardless of if any primary of secondary addresses
are present or not.

Add IFA_F_DADFAILED flag to denote an IPv6 address that has
failed Duplicate Address Detection, that way tools like
/sbin/ip can be more informative.

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.
patch attached this time..

ip: Allow for easier debug of buggy devices that dont send their names
With the old message couldnt tell which device had the bug.
This patch provides at least an ifindex to narrow it down.
Theres also no point in bailing out because of one bug; we
allow it to go on so we could dump as much info as we can

(router solicitation) becomes negative
How reproducible:
Always.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure an IPv6 router to advertise a prefix with a short preferred
lifetime, e.g. 0.
2. Wait for the IPv6 autoconfiguration process to complete for an interface
<if> connected to a link where that router advertises.
3. Run ip -6 show dev <if>.
Actual results:
The preferred lifetime will have become negative, but it is printed as an
unsigned integer. The preferred lifetime to be displayed will therefore be
close to UINT_MAX.

The patch below makes the "Nothing to flush" only visible when show
statistics flag is given, and then only to stdout rather then stderr.
$ sudo ./ip/ip -s addr flush dev skif
Nothing to flush.
$ sudo ./ip/ip addr flush dev skif
$
(See http://bugs.debian.org/492196 )
Some usages of rtnl_send could cause errors (ie flush requests)
others do a listen afterwards.
