A cache is also added to remember the association between the iproute2 netns
name (from /var/run/netns/) and the nsid.
To avoid interfering with the rth socket, a new rtnl socket (rtnsh) is used to
get nsid (we may send rtnl request during listing on rth).

$ ip netns list-id

$ ip monitor nsid

- Pull in the uapi mpls.h
- Update rtnetlink.h to include the mpls rtnetlink notification multicast group.
- Define AF_MPLS in utils.h if it is not defined from elsewhere
as is done with AF_DECnet
The address syntax for multiple mpls labels is a complete invention.
When I looked there seemed to be no wide spread convention for talking
about an mpls label stack in text for. Sometimes people did:
"{ Label1, Label2, Label3 }", sometimes people would do:
"[ label3, label2, label1 ]", and most of the time label
stacks were not explicitly shown at all.
The syntax I wound up using, so it would not have spaces and so it
would visually distinct from other kinds of addresses is.
label1/label2/label3 Where label1 is the label at the top of the label
stack and label3 is the label at the bottom on the label stack.
When there is a single label this matches what seems to be convention
with other tools. Just print out the numeric value of the mpls label.
The netlink protocol for labels uses the on the wire format for a
label stack. The ttl and traffic class are expected to be 0. Using
the on the wire format is common and what happens with other address
types. BGP when passing label stacks also uses this technique with the
exception that the ttl byte is not included making each label in a BGP
label stack 3 bytes instead of 4.

This attribute is like RTA_DST except it specifies the destination
address to place on a packet when it leaves the host. For ip based
protocols this is destination NAT and not a common part of forwarding.
For protocols like MPLS label swapping is something that typically
happens on every hop.
There is likely to be a RTA_NEWSRC at some point so RTA_NEWDST
is printed as "as to" and can be specified either as "as to"
or just "as"

o Change in v3:
* IFLA_VF_RATE: When IFLA_VF_RATE is used, and user has given only one of

userspace instead of in kernel space before ndo_set_vf_rate.
* IFLA_VF_TX_RATE: When IFLA_VF_TX_RATE is used, min_tx_rate is always read
in kernel space. This takes care of below scenarios:
(1) when old tool sends "rate" but kernel is new (expects min and max)
(2) when new tool sends only "rate" but kernel is old (expects only "rate")
o Change in v4 as suggested by Stephen Hemminger:
* As per iproute policy, input and output formats should match. Changing display
of max_tx_rate and min_tx_rate options accordingly.

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

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.

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.

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).

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.
This makes 2 changes:
1: Add fq_codel to SEE ALSO section in tc manpage.
2: Reorder the SEE ALSO section to make the order alphabetical
(suggested by Jan Ceuleers ).

*********************
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.

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.
