*********************
Space at end of line removed
General considerations
a) Manuals should usually only be left justified. Use ".ad l"
as the first regular command.
b) Each sentence should begin on a new line. The conventions
about the amount of space between sentences are different. This
also makes a check on the number of space characters between
words easier.
c) Separate numbers from units with a (no-break) space. A
no-break space can be code 0xA0, "\ " (\<space>), or "\~"
(groff).
d) Use macros "TS/TE" for tables with more than two columns.
Then use
'\" t
as the first line in the source to tell "man" to use the "tbl"
preprocessor.
e) Protect last period (full stop) in abbreviations with "\&",
if it is or might be (through new formatting of source) at the
end of line, if it is also not an end of sentence.

Adds support for parsing IPv6 addresses to the parameters local and
remote in the l2tp commands. Requires netlink attributes L2TP_ATTR_IP6_SADDR
and L2TP_ATTR_IP6_DADDR, added in a required kernel patch already submitted
to netdev.
Also enables printing of IPv6 addresses returned by the L2TP_CMD_TUNNEL_GET
request.

Fair Queue Codel packet scheduler
Principles :
- Packets are classified (internal classifier or external) on flows.
- This is a Stochastic model (as we use a hash, several flows might
be hashed on same slot)
- Each flow has a CoDel managed queue.
- Flows are linked onto two (Round Robin) lists,
so that new flows have priority on old ones.
- For a given flow, packets are not reordered (CoDel uses a FIFO)
- head drops only.
- ECN capability is on by default.
- Very low memory footprint (64 bytes per flow)

An implementation of CoDel AQM, from Kathleen Nichols and Van Jacobson.
http://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2209336
This AQM main input is no longer queue size in bytes or packets, but the
delay packets stay in (FIFO) queue.
As we don't have infinite memory, we still can drop packets in enqueue()
in case of massive load, but mean of CoDel is to drop packets in
dequeue(), using a control law based on two simple parameters :
target : target sojourn time (default 5ms)
interval : width of moving time window (default 100ms)
Selected packets are dropped, unless ECN is enabled and packets can get
ECN mark instead.
Usage: tc qdisc ... codel [ limit PACKETS ] [ target TIME ]
[ interval TIME ] [ ecn ]
qdisc codel 10: parent 1:1 limit 2000p target 3.0ms interval 60.0ms ecn
Sent 13347099587 bytes 8815805 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
rate 202365Kbit 16708pps backlog 113550b 75p requeues 0
count 116 lastcount 98 ldelay 4.3ms dropping drop_next 816us
maxpacket 1514 ecn_mark 84399 drop_overlimit 0
CoDel must be seen as a base module, and should be used keeping in mind
there is still a FIFO queue. So a typical setup will probably need a
hierarchy of several qdiscs and packet classifiers to be able to meet
whatever constraints a user might have.
One possible example would be to use fq_codel, which combines Fair
Queueing and CoDel, in replacement of sfq / sfq_red.

Lets use "delete" in all calls to matches() for consistency. This will
make both "del" and "delete" work everywhere.

Reported by Ivan Vilata i Balaguer <ivan@selidor.net>
found that the description of the `ip link add` command in the manpage
is outdated regarding the compulsory `link DEVICE` option.
For instance, `ip link help` says:
Usage: ip link add [link DEV] [ name ] NAME
...
But the manpage still says:
ip link add link DEVICE [ name ] NAME
(Trying to provide a `link` option e.g. under an LXC container can frustrate
the creation of dummy devices which don't need an actual device.)
The syntax of the "ip link help" output was fixed in commit
"iproute2: Fix usage and man page for 'ip link'" (a22e92951d).
This updates the manpage to mark "link DEVICE" as an optional
argument there as well.

Add a new netlink attribute type to the dump request to allow
filtering of the information returned for the respective matching
interfaces. At this time the only filter defined is to request

It will also be possible to extend the request with other yet to be

Hi,
I've attached a trivial patch for iproute2 to allow naming interfaces
created with "ip l2tp add session".
I believe patches should go through the netdev mailing list but this
patch is so small I figured that would just add noise. Hope that's OK.
Originally I thought I would need a bigger patch and was going to take a
stab at implementing something like
ip l2tp add tunnel L2TP_TUNNEL_ARGS
ip link add name NAME [ LINK_OPTS ] type l2tp L2TP_SESSION_ARGS
(a better interface IMHO) but all the code was there already, all that I
needed to add was option parsing.
Thanks,
João Valverde

Subject: [PATCH] ipl2tp: allow setting session interface name
The kernel supports a link mode attribute (which can be dormant or default).
This attribute is used to control how the link watch engine
handles operstate transistion.
This adds a new parameter to ip link command to allow setting and
displaying the value.
---
There is nothing in the standard that says 0 can't be used as a key.
It makes sense to allow it. Also fix typo where ikey was printed for
when printing okey.
* update synopsis to match "ip address help" output
* specify IPv4, since "IP" is ambiguous
* remove deprecated site scope
* document lifetimes, home, and nodad
* update wording to make sense since page was split from the ip(8) page
* git rid of extra spaces
Change the order of evaluation of ip link type arguements to allow
changing parameters of gre tunnels.
The following wouldn't work:
# ip li add mytunnel type gretap remote 1.1.1.1 key 3
# ip li set mytunnel type gretap key 9
As reported by Thomas Mühlgrabner <muehltom@cable.vol.at>
in http://bugs.debian.org/662979 :
When showing htb class configuration with "tc -iec class show",
the output for Mibit is actually the value for bit.
Example: configure a class with a ceil of 1000Mibit.
Output states 1048576000 Mibit.
The cause is missing parenteses in the display code of tc....
(Please also note that a lower value of 100Mibit will be displayed
as 102400 Kibit, which I think is kind of ugly.)
