Richard Haines 116ac9270b ss: Add support for retrieving SELinux contexts
The process SELinux contexts can be added to the output using the -Z
option. Using the -z option will show the process and socket contexts (see
the man page for details).
For netlink sockets: if valid process show process context, if pid = 0
show kernel initial context, if unknown show "unavailable".

Stefan Tomanek b1d0525f9c ip rule: add route suppression options
When configuring a system with multiple network uplinks and default routes, it
is often convenient to reference a routing table multiple times - but reject
its routing decision if certain constraints are not met by it.

Consider this setup:

$ ip route add table secuplink default via 10.42.23.1

$ ip rule add pref 100            table main suppress_prefixlength 0
$ ip rule add pref 150 fwmark 0xA table secuplink

With this setup, packets marked 0xA will be processed by the additional routing
table "secuplink", but only if no suitable route in the main routing table can
be found. By suppressing entries with a prefixlength of 0 (or less), the
default route (/0) of the table "main" is hidden to packets processed by rule
100; packets traveling to destinations via more specific routes are processed
as usual.

It is also possible to suppress a routing entry if a device belonging to
a specific interface group is to be used:

$ ip rule add pref 150 table main suppress_group 1

Atzm Watanabe 7cfa3802ca vxlan: Allow setting destination to unicast address.
This patch allows setting VXLAN destination to unicast address.
It allows that VXLAN can be used as peer-to-peer tunnel without
multicast.

v6: change back to the v3 except for using new attribute because
    replacing command-line parameters breaks existing scripts,
    based by Cong Wang's comments.

v5: rebase on the latest.

v4: replace "group" with "remote" based by David Stevens's comments.

v3: move a new attribute REMOTE into the last of an enum list
    based by Stephen Hemminger's comments.
    fix the usage to show explicitly that both "remote" and "group"
    cannot be specified, based by Ben Hutchings's comments.

v2: use a new argument "remote" instead of "group" based by
    Stephen Hemminger's comments.

esr@thyrsus.com ee0b0a9ec9 In tc-ematch.8, remove no-op .ti requests to prevent translation warnings
These do nothing on an 80-column display. They were clearly somebody's
boilerplate way of setting up hanging indents, but the syntax lines
are way too short to require them. And since most were argumentless
they would have been no-ops on any sized display.

esr@thyrsus.com 11eb939653 tc-stab.8: Fix synopsis errors, an invalid escape, and incorrect English usge.
The command synopsis is regularized and part of it split off into an
OPTIONS section.  This allows the page to lift to XML-DocBook.

An invalid \p escape was removed.

This page was written by someone who didn't understand the use of
definite and indefinite articles in English, nor its punctuation rules.
I've fixed these mistakes, and some glitches in punctuation and
capitalization.

Subject: [PATCH] Abolish presentation-level misuse of the .SS macro.

This change fixes most (but not all) fatal errors in attempts to lift
the iproute2 manual pages to XML-DocBook.  Where .SS is still used it
is a real subsection header, not just a way to outdent and bold text.
Presentation-level instances are turned into .TP calls and tables.

Daniel Borkmann 191b60bd73 ip: ipv6: add tokenized interface identifier support
This patch adds support for tokenized IIDs, that enable
administrators to assign well-known host-part addresses
to nodes whilst still obtaining global network prefix
from Router Advertisements. This is the iproute2 part for
the kernel patch f53adae4eae5 (``net: ipv6: add tokenized
interface identifier support'').

Example commands with iproute2:

Setting a device token:
  # ip token set ::1a:2b:3c:4d/64 dev eth1

Getting a device token:
  # ip token get dev eth1
  token ::1a:2b:3c:4d dev eth1

Listing all tokens:
  # ip token list  (or: ip token)
  token :: dev eth0
  token ::1a:2b:3c:4d dev eth1
