iproute2 contains a bunch of kernel headers, including uapi ones. Android's libc uses uapi headers almost directly, and uses a script to fix kernel types that don't match what userspace expects. For example: https://issuetracker.google.com/36987220 reports that our struct ip_mreq_source contains "__be32 imr_multiaddr" rather than "struct in_addr imr_multiaddr". The script addresses this by replacing the uapi struct definition with a #include <bits/ip_mreq.h> which contains the traditional userspace definition. Unfortunately, when we compile iproute2, this definition conflicts with the one in iproute2's linux/in.h. Historically we've just solved this problem by running "git rm" on all the iproute2 include/linux headers that break Android's libc. However, deleting the files in this way makes it harder to keep up with upstream, because every upstream change to an include file causes a merge conflict with the delete. This patch fixes the problem by moving the iproute2 linux headers from include/linux to include/uapi/linux.

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.mk file which
contains definitions of libraries that may or may not be available
on the system such as: ATM, ELF, MNL, and SELINUX.
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.
