a07c6d6135 add missing underscore to man page and example nf_mark ematch
The man page and the "fail" example are missing an underscore in the
nf_mark ematch.

eg.

tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff:  basic match 'meta(nfmark gt 24)'
classid 2:4

meta: unknown meta id

... >>meta(nfmark gt 24)<< ...
... meta(>>nfmark<< gt 24)...
Usage: meta(OBJECT { eq | lt | gt } OBJECT)
where: OBJECT  := { META_ID | VALUE }
        META_ID := id [ shift SHIFT ] [ mask MASK ]

Example: meta(nfmark gt 24)
          meta(indev shift 1 eq "ppp")
          meta(tcindex mask 0xf0 eq 0xf0)

For a list of meta identifiers, use meta(list).
Illegal "ematch"

meta(list) does correctly show nf_mark and the above test works with
nf_mark.

Tests were not allowed to be ran, the following

954de6c72b actions: BugFix action stats to display with -s

Lets not be too clever and have a separate call to print flushed

Broken looks like:

    action order 0: gact action drop

3757185b29 tc/netem: loss gemodel options fixes
First, the default value for 1-k is documented as being 0, but is
currently being set to 1. (100%).  This causes all packets to be dropped
in the good state if 1-k is not explicitly specified.  Fix this by setting
the default to 0.

	Second, the 1-h option is parsed correctly, however, the kernel is
expecting "h", not 1-h.  Fix this by inverting the "1-h" percentage before
sending to and after receiving from the kernel.  This does change the
behavior, but makes it consistent with the netem documentation and the
literature on the Gilbert-Elliot model, which refer to "1-h" and "1-k,"
not "h" or "k" directly.

	Last, fix a minor formatting issue for the options reporting.

Lets move a port from one bridge to another for shits-and-giggles

50b9950dd9 link dump filter
This patch avoids a full link wildump request when the user has specified
a single link. Uses RTM_GETLINK without the NLM_F_DUMP flag.

This helps on a system with large number of interfaces.

This patch currently only uses the link ifindex in the filter.
Hoping to provide a subsequent kernel patch to do link dump filtering on
other attributes in the kernel.

In iplink_get, to be safe, this patch currently sets the answer buffer
size to the max size that libnetlink rtnl_talk can copy. The current api
does not seem to provide a way to indicate the answer buf size.

23d526c426 fix ip tunnel for vti tunnels with ikey
Consider the following command:

ip tunnel add mode vti remote 12.0.0.1 local 12.0.0.3 ikey 15

i_flags will be GRE_KEY|VTI_ISVTI. So, in order to distinguish between ipip and
vti we have to check just VTI_ISVTI bit, not the equality of i_flags and
VTI_ISVTI.

* Note, that there also was a bug in ip_tunnel/ip_vti, see
commit 7c8e6b9c281(ip_vti: Fix 'ip tunnel add' with 'key' parameters),
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/6/7/125.
Even patched iproute could be unable to create vti tunnels with non-zero keys.

1) Unpatched iproute2:
[root@vm ~]# ip tunnel show
[root@vm ~]# lsmod | egrep '(ipip|vti)'
[root@vm ~]# ip tunnel add mode vti ikey 1
[root@vm ~]# lsmod | egrep '(ipip|vti)'
ipip                    4197  0 
tunnel4                 1659  1 ipip
ip_tunnel               9295  1 ipip
[root@vm ~]# ip tunnel show
tunl0: ip/ip  remote any  local any  ttl inherit
[root@vm ~]# ip tunnel add mode vti remote 1.2.3.4 ikey 2
[root@vm ~]# ip tunnel show
ipip0: ip/ip  remote 1.2.3.4  local any  ttl inherit 
tunl0: ip/ip  remote any  local any  ttl inherit 
[root@vm ~]# lsmod | egrep '(ipip|vti)'
ipip                    4197  0 
tunnel4                 1659  1 ipip
ip_tunnel               9295  1 ipip

# ipip tunnels are created instead of vti

2) Patched iproute2:
[root@vm ~]# ip tunnel show
[root@vm ~]# lsmod | egrep '(ipip|vti)'
[root@vm ~]# ip tunnel add mode vti ikey 1
[root@vm ~]# lsmod | egrep '(ipip|vti)'
ip_vti                  5258  0 
ip_tunnel               9295  1 ip_vti
[root@vm ~]# ip tunnel show
vti0: ip/ip  remote any  local any  ttl inherit  ikey 1  okey 0 
ip_vti0: ip/ip  remote any  local any  ttl inherit  nopmtudisc key 0
[root@vm ~]# ip tunnel add mode vti remote 1.2.3.4 ikey 2
[root@vm ~]# ip tunnel show
vti0: ip/ip  remote any  local any  ttl inherit  ikey 1  okey 0
vti1: ip/ip  remote 1.2.3.4  local any  ttl inherit  ikey 2  okey 0 
ip_vti0: ip/ip  remote any  local any  ttl inherit  nopmtudisc key 0

# Vti tunnels are created as expected
# * If you have unpatched kernel your vti tunnels will have ikey == okey == 0

Same story exists with ip tunnel show/del with non-zero [io]key: requests are 
routed to tunl0 instead of ip_vti0.

cc273a51d0 bridge: Add master device name to bridge fdb show
This patch adds master dev name from NDA_MASTER netlink attribute
 to bridge fdb show output

current iproute2 tries to print 'master' in the output if NTF_MASTER
is present. But, kernel today does not set NTF_MASTER during dump
requests. Which means I have not seen iproute2 bridge cmd print 'master' atall.
This patch overrides the NTF_MASTER flag if NDA_MASTER attribute is present.

Example output:

before this patch:
# bridge fdb show
44:38:39:00:27:ba dev bond2.2003 permanent
44:38:39:00:27:bb dev bond4.2003 permanent
44:38:39:00:27:bc dev bond2.2004 permanent

After this patch:
# bridge fdb show
44:38:39:00:27:ba dev bond2.2003 master br-2003 permanent
44:38:39:00:27:bb dev bond4.2003 master br-2003 permanent
44:38:39:00:27:bc dev bond2.2004 master br-2004 permanent

For comparision with the above, below is the output for NTF_SELF today,
# bridge fdb show
33:33:00:00:00:01 dev eth0 self permanent
01:00:5e:00:00:01 dev eth0 self permanent
33:33:ff:00:01:cc dev eth0 self permanent

If change in output is a concern, 'master' can be put at the end of the fdb
output line or made optional with -d[etails] option.

change from v1 to v2:
    use 'bridge' instead of 'master' in fdb show output

change from v2 to v3:
    use 'master' instead of 'bridge' in fdb show output
    (master could also be a vxlan device)

f89a2a05ff Add support to configure SR-IOV VF minimum and maximum Tx rate through ip tool
o "min_tx_rate" option has been added for minimum Tx rate. Hence, for
  consistent naming, "max_tx_rate" option has been introduced for maximum
  Tx rate.

o Change in v2: "rate" can be used along with "max_tx_rate".
  When both are specified, "max_tx_rate" should override.

o Change in v3:
  * IFLA_VF_RATE: When IFLA_VF_RATE is used, and user has given only one of
    min_tx_rate or max_tx_rate, reading of previous rate limits is done in
    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.
