Girish Moodalbail 01c659955a vxlan: Add support for modifying vxlan device attributes
Ability to change vxlan device attributes was added to kernel through
commit 8bcdc4f3a20b ("vxlan: add changelink support"), however one
cannot do the same through ip(8) command.  Changing the allowed vxlan
device attributes using 'ip link set dev <vxlan_name> type vxlan
<allowed_attributes>' currently fails with 'operation not supported'
error.  This failure is due to the incorrect rtnetlink message
construction for the 'ip link set' operation.

The vxlan_parse_opt() callback function is called for parsing options
for both 'ip link add' and 'ip link set'. For the 'add' case, we pass
down default values for those attributes that were not provided as CLI
options. However, for the 'set' case we should be only passing down the
explicitly provided attributes and not any other (default) attributes.

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm

arpd needs to have the db4 development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdb4.x-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines.  Often this is in the db-devel package.

2. make

The makefile will automatically build a Config file which
contains whether or not ATM is available, etc.

3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
   look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
   PAGESIZE=a4		, ie: a4 , letter ...	(string)
   PAGESPERPAGE=2	, ie: 1 , 2 ...		(numeric)
   and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
   are in your path.

4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
   the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
   if you have special requirements and need to point at different
   kernel include files.
