The tc command is missing documentation of -batch and -force switches
that are returned by "tc -help".
Add short description on their syntax and usage.
Change ALGO-KEY to ALGO-KEYMAT to make it more obvious that the
keying material might need to contain more than just the key (such
as a salt or nonce value).
List the algorithm names that currently exist in the kernel.
Indicate that for IPComp, the Compression Parameter Index (CPI) is
used as the SPI.
Group the list of mode values by transform protocol.

In older versions of traffic shaping the Alpha kernel was special
and had higher HZ. This no longer matters, TC is based on high
resoulution timers in kernel.
Bridge tool now supports setting and retrieving bridge port specific
link attributes. Document what attributes are supported and what
they mean.

Both ip-link and ip-address support the 'up' argument, however this
isn't documented in neither their help outputs or ip-address' manpage.
This patch fixes that.

While looking into a sysctl regression in decnet on old kernels I
discovered this omission in the iproute2 documentation.
I can't imagine anyone's muscle memory remembering the longer forms.

Improved man page as follows:

- Use standard notation for units

Rephrasing for clarity.
Note that in ip-rule.8 I rephrased a sentence to "The RPDB is scanned
in order of decreasing priority." The original version talked about
*in*creasing priority, but from the context that didn't make sense.

The 'inherit/STRING' or 'inherit/00..ff' syntax indicates that the
TOS field of tunneled packets should be copied from the original IP
header, but for non-IP packets the value STRING or 00..ff should be
used instead. (This syntax is already used by 'ip tunnel show'.)
Also clarify the man page and the command usage text (particularly
that the TOS is not specified as a decimal number).

Add command that go between network namespace names and process
identifiers. The code builds and runs agains older kernels but
only works on Linux 3.8+ kernels where I have fixed stat to work
properly.

Add a few senteces describing each command. The manpage was looking
very scrawny.

If an error occurs in a man subdir, make sure we propagate it back up.

The man dir misses the man7 as a subdir which means none of the pages
get installed.

Added support to ipoib rtnl ops through which one can create, configure,
query and delete IPoIB devices, for example
$ ip link add link ib0.8001 name ib0.8001 type ipoib pkey 0x8001
$ ip link add link ib0.1 name ib0.1 type ipoib mode connected
$ ip --details link show dev ib0.1

Since the get_rate() code incorrectly interpreted bare number, the
behavior is not the same as man page and comment described.
We need to change the man page and comment for compatible with the
existing usage by scripts.
