Every tool in the iproute2 package have one or more function to show
an help message to the user. Some of these functions print the help
line by line with a series of printf call, e.g. ip/xfrm_state.c does
60 fprintf calls.
If we group all the calls to a single one and just concatenate strings,
we save a lot of libc calls and thus object size. The size difference
of the compiled binaries calculated with bloat-o-meter is:
ip/ip:
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 5/15 up/down: 103/-4796 (-4693)

While at it, indent some strings which were starting at column 0,
and use tabs where possible, to have a consistent style across helps.

The argument to print_0xhex is converted to unsigned long long
so the format string give for normal printout has to be some
variant of %llx. Otherwise, bogus values will be printed on

Allow to set the DF bit behaviour for outgoing IPv4 packets: it can be
always on, inherited from the inner header, or, by default, always off,
which is the current behaviour.
v2:
- Indicate in the man page what DF refers to, using RFC 791 wording

Currently when we add geneve with "ttl inherit", we only set ttl to 0, which
is actually use whatever default value instead of inherit the inner protocol's
ttl value.
To make a difference with ttl inherit and ttl == 0, we add an attribute
IFLA_GENEVE_TTL_INHERIT in kernel commit 52d0d404d39dd ("geneve: add ttl
inherit support"). Now let's use "ttl inherit" to inherit the inner
protocol's ttl, and use "ttl auto" to means "use whatever default value",
the same behavior with ttl == 0.
v2:
1) remove IFLA_GENEVE_TTL_INHERIT defination in if_link.h as it's already
updated.
2) Still use addattr8() so we can enable/disable ttl inherit, as Michal
suggested.
v3: Update man page

Initializing @inet_prefix using C initializers or memset() seems
inefficient and unnecessary: only small part of ->data[] field will be
used to store address corresponding to ->family.
Instead initialize ->flags with zero and assume no other fields accessed
before checking corresponding bits in ->flags. For example special
helpers (e.g. is_addrtype_*()) can be used to ensure that @inet_prefix
contains valid ip or ipv6 address.

For ip tunnels tos can be 0 when not configured, 1 when
inherited from encapsulated packet and rest specifying
diffserv (rfc2474) or tos (rfc1349) bits. It is stored
in packet tos/diffserv field and returned in tos
netlink attribute to userspace.
Simplify and unify tos printing by using print_0xhex()
and print_string() instead of fprintf() to output values.

Both ttl/hoplimit is from 1 to 255. Zero has special meaning:
use encapsulated packet value. In ip-link(8) -d output this
looks like "ttl/hoplimit inherit". In JSON we have "int" type
for ttl and therefore values from 0 (inherit) to 255.
To do the best in handling ttl/hoplimit we need to accept
both cases: missing attribute in netlink dump and zero value
for "inherit"ed case. Last one is broken since JSON output
introduction for gre/iptnl versions and was never true for
gre6/ip6tnl.
For all tunnels, except ip6tnl change JSON type from "int" to
"uint" to reflect true nature of the ttl.

Ability to change geneve device attributes was added to kernel through
commit 5b861f6baa3a ("geneve: add rtnl changelink support"), however one
cannot do the same through ip-link(8) command. Changing the allowed
geneve device attributes using 'ip link set <geneve_name> type geneve id
<geneve_id> <allowed_attributes>' currently fails with 'operation not
supported' error. This patch adds support for it.

Take help function in iplink_bridge.c as an example and make other link
types' help functions similar:
* Use a single fprintf() call (if possible).
* Don't state a full command line, just "... type OPTIONS".
* Put every option in it's own line, align options by column.
* List mandatory options first.
link_veth.c is intentionally left untouched because it's 'peer' option
eats all kinds of generic link options and the help text points this out
without duplicating all the options there again.
