* update synopsis to match "ip address help" output
* specify IPv4, since "IP" is ambiguous
* remove deprecated site scope
* document lifetimes, home, and nodad
* update wording to make sense since page was split from the ip(8) page

Change the order of evaluation of ip link type arguements to allow
changing parameters of gre tunnels.
The following wouldn't work:
# ip li add mytunnel type gretap remote 1.1.1.1 key 3
# ip li set mytunnel type gretap key 9
As reported by Thomas Mühlgrabner <muehltom@cable.vol.at>
in http://bugs.debian.org/662979 :
When showing htb class configuration with "tc -iec class show",
the output for Mibit is actually the value for bit.
Example: configure a class with a ceil of 1000Mibit.
Output states 1048576000 Mibit.
The cause is missing parenteses in the display code of tc....
(Please also note that a lower value of 100Mibit will be displayed
as 102400 Kibit, which I think is kind of ugly.)

LIBNETLINK will be defined in the main Makefile, so
both ../lib/libnetlink.a ../lib/libutil.a will be
automatically appended during linking. Otherwise
../lib/libnetlink.a ../lib/libutil.a will appear
twice during linking.

A new option -p is added to the arpd command that accepts
a time indicating the number of seconds
to wait between kernel arp table polling attempts.
The minimum value is .1 (100ms).
If not specified, polling defaults to 30 seconds.

Don't use /tmp since it is dangerous, instead put temporary files
from configure script in build directory. This is what autoconf
generated configure does.
New "ip neigh show proxy" command now can show proxies which
were added with "ip neigh add proxy" command. Kernel code to
support this feature sent a bit earlier to netdev.

The syntax used in the example on reordering in the manpage is inconsistent with
the usage syntax. Moreover, the text does not describe the reordering process
in the kernel correctly. This patch fixes these two issues.

(Resending patch since it looks like my earlier mail did not make it to
netdev).
netem reordering requires that the delay parameter be given. Currently, if no
delay is given, tc prints the error message but still installs the qdisc. Fix
this by printing the usage and failing cleanly.

Adds an optional Random Early Detection on each SFQ flow queue.
Traditional SFQ limits count of packets, while RED permits to also
control number of bytes per flow, and adds ECN capability as well.
1) We dont handle the idle time management in this RED implementation,
since each 'new flow' begins with a null qavg. We really want to address
backlogged flows.
2) if headdrop is selected, we try to ecn mark first packet instead of
currently enqueued packet. This gives faster feedback for tcp flows
compared to traditional RED [ marking the last packet in queue ]
Example of use :
tc qdisc add dev $DEV parent 1:1 handle 10: est 1sec 4sec sfq \
limit 3000 headdrop flows 512 divisor 16384 \
redflowlimit 100000 min 8000 max 60000 probability 0.20 ecn
qdisc sfq 10: parent 1:1 limit 3000p quantum 1514b depth 127 headdrop
flows 512/16384 divisor 16384
ewma 6 min 8000b max 60000b probability 0.2 ecn
prob_mark 0 prob_mark_head 4876 prob_drop 6131
forced_mark 0 forced_mark_head 0 forced_drop 0

requeues 0)
rate 99483Kbit 8219pps backlog 689392b 456p requeues 0
In this test, with 64 netperf TCP_STREAM sessions, 50% using ECN enabled
flows, we can see number of packets CE marked is smaller than number of
drops (for non ECN flows)
If same test is run, without RED, we can check backlog is much bigger.

Enable Adaptative RED algo, using :
tc qdisc ... red limit BYTES ... adaptative ...
Support of high precision probability/max_p setting and reporting, with
support of old kernels.
With a new kernel, "Plog ..." is replaced in tc output by "probability
value" :
qdisc red 10: dev eth3 parent 1:1 limit 360Kb min 30Kb max 90Kb ecn ewma
5 probability 0.09 Scell_log 15
This patch add rate shaping as well as cell support. The link-rate can be
specified via rate options. Three optional arguments control the cell
knobs: packet-overhead, cell-size, cell-overhead. To ratelimit eth0 root
queue to 5kbit/s, with a 20 byte packet overhead, 100 byte cell size and
a 5 byte per cell overhead:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem rate 5kbit 20 100 5

This is trivial patch for libnetlink.c in iproute2.
In iproute2/include/linux/netlink.h NLM_F_DUMP is defines as:
#define NLM_F_DUMP (NLM_F_ROOT|NLM_F_MATCH)
It is not used in libnetlink.c. If used, the code becomes a bit easier
to read.
