This patch add rate shaping as well as cell support. The link-rate can be
specified via rate options. Three optional arguments control the cell
knobs: packet-overhead, cell-size, cell-overhead. To ratelimit eth0 root
queue to 5kbit/s, with a 20 byte packet overhead, 100 byte cell size and
a 5 byte per cell overhead:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem rate 5kbit 20 100 5

Both rtnl_talk and rtnl_dump had a callback for handling portions
of netlink message that do not match the correct pid or seq.
But this callback was never used by any part of iproute2 so remove
it.
Add harddrop support (kernel support added a long time ago), and various
cleanups.
min BYTES, max BYTES are now optional and follow Sally Floyd's
recommendations.
By the way, our default 2% probability is a bit low, Sally recommends 10%.
Not a big deal if upcoming adaptative algo is deployed.

Documentation advises to set burst to (min+min+max)/(3*avpkt)
Let tc do this automatically if user doesnt provide burst himself.

get_distribution() returns an int.
cppcheck reported:
[tc/q_netem.c:243]: (style) Checking if unsigned variable 'dist_size' is less than zero.
The mismatch actually rendered the error checking
after get_distribution() ineffective.

This patch adds detailed documentation for HFSC scheduler. It roughly
follows HFSC paper, but tries to not rely too much on math side of things.
Post-paper/Linux specific subjects (timer resolution, ul service curve, etc.)
are also discussed.
I've read it many times over, but it's a lengthy chunk of text - so try
to be understanding in case I made some mistakes.
tc-hfsc(7): explains algorithm in detail (very long)
tc-hfsc(8): explains command line options briefly
tc(8): adds references to new man pages
Makefile: adds man7 directory to install target
q_hfsc.c: minimal help text changes, consistency with tc-hfsc(8)

Building iproute2 in parallel might hit the race failure:
emp_ematch.l:2:30: fatal error: emp_ematch.yacc.h:
No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [emp_ematch.lex.o] Error 1
This is because we currently allow the yacc/lex files to generate and
compile in parallel. So add a simple dependency to make sure yacc has
finished before we attempt to compile the lex output.

iptables/xtables apparently changed API again.... Now you need to pass
and extra parameter (orig_opts) which was not needed before.
Sprinkle some lovely pre-processor magic to be compatible with both older
and new versions. In the beginning of times XTABLES_VERSION_CODE didn't
exist. Then it was (0x10000 * major + 0x100 * minor + patch) when it was
first introduced (according to git), but now it's at 6...
Don't know what official iptables releases has defined it to over time.
Lets just hope none of the older versions with is has the define
higher then 6 is still around.... so only the "current" versioning
scheme is supported.... lets see how long this lasts now.
For the API change in xtables, see:

Add the iproute2 support for the ACT_CSUM action. Can be used as
following, certainly in conjunction with the ACT_PEDIT action (pedit):
# In order to DNAT (stateless) IPv4 packet from 192.168.1.100 to
# 0x12345678 (18.52.86.120), and update the IPv4 header checksum and
# the UDP checksum (the last one, only if the packet is UDP).
tc filter add eth0 prio 1 protocol ip parent ffff: \
u32 match ip src 192.168.1.100/32 flowid :1 \
action pedit munge offset 16 u32 set 0x12345678 \
pipe csum ip and udp
# In order to alter destination address of IPv6 TCP packets from fc00::1
# and correct the TCP checksum (nothing happened? except maybe for
# checksums in the TCP payload ...).
tc filter add eth0 prio 1 protocol ipv6 parent ffff: \
u32 match ip6 src fc00::1/128 match ip6 protocol 0x06 0xff flowid :1 \
action pedit munge offset 24 u32 set 0x12345678 \
pipe csum tcp
We can use rxhash to classify the traffic into flows. As rxhash maybe
supplied by NIC or RPS, it is cheaper.

iptables dropped the xtables_set_revision() function around version 1.4.9,
so set the rev directly ourselves. This should be compatible back to the
original version m_xt itself is designed for.

Fixes problems with xtables based MARK target ("ipt" module).
When tc loads the "ipt" (xt) module it kept the symbols local,
this made loading of libxtables not find the required struct.
currently ipt/xt is the only tc action module.
iproute2 never seem to do dlclose.
hopefully the modules doesn't export more symbols then needed.
In this situation hopefully the RTLD_GLOBAL flag won't hurt us.
I've been using this patch in the Debian package of iproute for
the last 3 weeks and noone has complained.

This patch adds ipv6 filter priority/traffic class function
static int parse_ip6_class(int *argc_p, char ***argv_p, struct tc_u32_sel *sel)
shifting filter value to 5th bit and ignoring "at" as header position
is exactly given.

The recent commit "iproute2: add option to build m_xt as a tc module"
(ab814d6355) looks like it wrongly included debug changes in the
install target. So drop the `echo` so the tc binary actually gets
installed again.

When building on an old environment, the flex generated
tc/emp_ematch.lex.c file would not compile. The error given was:
emp_ematch.lex.c:1686: error: expected â;â, â,â or â)â before numeric constant
The emp_ematch.l uses 'str' as a start symbol name, and flex would create
a '#define str 1' statement. This particular version of flex,
unfortunately, used 'str' as names of string variables in the generated
parser functions. This is line 1686 in the generated file:
YY_BUFFER_STATE ematch__scan_string (yyconst char * str )
This patch just substitutes 'str' for 'lexstr' in emp_ematch.l to avoid
the collision.
This will build the xt module (action ipt) of tc as a
shared object that is linked at runtime by tc if used,
rather then built into tc.
This is similar to how the atm qdisc support
is handled (q_atm.so).
