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:

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

Here we are partially reverting commit c14f9d92ee
"treewide: Use addattr_nest()/addattr_nest_end() to handle nested
attributes" .
As discussed in [1], changing from the 'manually' coded version that
used addattr_l() to addattr_nest_compat() wasn't functionally
equivalent, because now the messages have extra fields appended to it.
This introduced a regression since the implementation of parse_attr()
from both mqprio and netem can't handle this new message format.
Without this fix, mqprio returns an error. netem won't return an error
but its internal configuration ends up wrong.
As an example, this can be reproduced by the following commands when
this patch is not applied:
1) mqprio
$ tc qdisc replace dev enp3s0 parent root handle 100 mqprio \
num_tc 3 map 2 2 1 0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 \
queues 1@0 1@1 2@2 hw 0
RTNETLINK answers: Numerical result out of range
2) netem
$ tc qdisc add dev enp3s0 root netem rate 5kbit 20 100 5 \
distribution normal latency 1 1
$ tc -s qdisc
(...)
qdisc netem 8001: dev enp3s0 root refcnt 9 limit 1000 delay 0us 0us
Sent 402 bytes 1 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
backlog 0b 0p requeues 0
(...)
With this patch applied, the tc -s qdisc command above for netem instead
reads:
(...)
qdisc netem 8002: dev enp3s0 root refcnt 9 limit 1000 delay 0us 0us \
rate 5Kbit packetoverhead 20 cellsize 100 celloverhead 5

We have helper routines to support nested attribute addition into
netlink buffer: use them instead of open coding.
Use addattr_nest_compat()/addattr_nest_compat_end() where appropriate.

This patch adapts the tc command line interface to allow bandwidth limits
to be specified as a percentage of the interface's capacity.
Adding this functionality requires passing the specified device string to
each class/qdisc which changes the prototype for a couple of functions: the
.parse_qopt and .parse_copt interfaces. The device string is a required
parameter for tc-qdisc and tc-class, and when not specified, the kernel
returns ENODEV. In this patch, if the user tries to specify a bandwidth
percentage without naming the device, we return an error from userspace.

This patch was previously submitted as RFC. Submitting this as
non-RFC now that the tc/mqprio changes are accepted in net-next.
Adds new mqprio options for 'mode' and 'shaper'. The mode
option can take values for offload modes such as 'dcb' (default),
'channel' with the 'hw' option set to 1. The new 'channel' mode
supports offloading TCs and other queue configurations. The
'shaper' option is to support HW shapers ('dcb' default) and
takes the value 'bw_rlimit' for bandwidth rate limiting. The
parameters to the bw_rlimit shaper are minimum and maximum
bandwidth rates. New HW shapers in future can be supported
through the shaper attribute.
