Serhey Popovych says: ==================== This is main routine to parse ip-link(8) configuration parameters. Move all code related to command line parsing and validation to it from iptables_modify(). As benefit we reduce number of arguments as well as checking for most of weired cases in single place to give benefit to iptables_parse() users. See individual patch description message for more information. v4 Drop patches intended to reduce number of arguments to iptables_parse(): postpone to the series with real use cases. Save only ifi_index in iplink_vxcan.c and link_veth.c: no need to save whole ifinfomsg data structure. Note that there is no sense to introduce custom version of iplink_parse() to use in iplink_vxcan.c and link_veth.c because there is too much parameters we need to support (except VF and few others) making huge code duplication. v3 Move vxlan/veth ifinfomsg save/restore to separate patch to make clear change that perform most of request buffer setups and checks in iplink_parse(). Update commit message descriptions and extra new line from "utils: Introduce and use nodev() helper routine" patch. v2 Terminate via exit() when failing to parse command line arguments to help identify failing line in batch mode. ==================== Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> |

This is a set of utilities for Linux networking.

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm
arpd needs to have the db4 development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdb4.x-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines. Often this is in the db-devel package.
2. make
The makefile will automatically build a config.mk file which
contains definitions of libraries that may or may not be available
on the system such as: ATM, ELF, MNL, and SELINUX.
3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
PAGESIZE=a4 , ie: a4 , letter ... (string)
PAGESPERPAGE=2 , ie: 1 , 2 ... (numeric)
and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
are in your path.
4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
if you have special requirements and need to point at different
kernel include files.
