This patch adds a hash function for hashing libnl objects.
This hash function is from:
http://ccodearchive.net/info/hash.html
The original code was modified to remove unwanted dependencies,
unwanted code and fixes to header file locations
One requirement with this hash function is, hashing over multiple fields of an
un-packed struct requires that the struct be zeroed, otherwise random padding
bytes will change the hash.

Make nl_sendto() return NLE_INVAL if provided buffer is NULL

This patch adds support to update a cache object during cache_include instead
of the current approach of deleting the original object and adding a new one.
This operation is conditional on the object implementing the operation. If
the update is not successful, cache_include falls back to the existing cache
inclusion process of deleting and adding the object.
It adds a new object operation called oo_update. oo_update takes two objects
as arguments, first being the existing cache object that needs update, the
second argument being the new object. Currently it is left to the implementor
to use the msg type to decide wether to delete or add the new object attributes
to the old one. But the operation type or msg type can be easily made part of the
object arguments.
The motivation for this change is explained below in the context of including
support for AF_BRIDGE objects into the link cache.
libnl today deletes an object before it includes an identical object.
But for some objects like the AF_BRIDGE objects this does not work well.
link cache uses the ifindex as its key in object searches.
If link cache were to support AF_BRIDGE family objects, todays implementation,
- will replace the original link object with the bridge port link object
for add notifications
- And a bridge port delete notification from kernel would delete the
link object from the cache leaving the cache without the link object
until the kernel sends another notification for that link
The bridge port link notification contains some base link object attributes
plus bridge specific protocol info attributes. In such cases we think an
operation to update the existing object in place in cache might be useful.
This can be made to work for AF_INET6 link objects too.

The current oo_id_attrs nl_object op allows a fixed
id attribute list for an cache. But a cache with multiple families
may need to specify different id attributes for different families.
An example for this is the bridge fdb entries in the neigh cache:
neigh entries belonging to the AF_UNSPEC family use
(NEIGH_ATTR_IFINDEX | NEIGH_ATTR_DST | NEIGH_ATTR_FAMILY) as id attributes.
AF_BRIDGE fdb entries which also support the same msg type, will need to use
(NEIGH_ATTR_LLADDR | NEIGH_ATTR_FAMILY) as id attributes.
Today you cannot specify different set of attributes to two families belonging
to the same cache.
This patch adds a new object function oo_id_attrs_get to get the attributes.
An example implementation of oo_id_attrs_get for the neigh cache will
look like:
static uint32_t neigh_id_attrs_get(struct nl_object *obj)
{
struct rtnl_neigh *neigh = (struct rtnl_neigh *)obj;
if (neigh->n_family == AF_BRIDGE)
return (NEIGH_ATTR_LLADDR | NEIGH_ATTR_FAMILY);
else
return (NEIGH_ATTR_IFINDEX | NEIGH_ATTR_DST | NEIGH_ATTR_FAMILY);
}

1. all cleanup actions (like free()) now located at the end of function
2. in case of error or EOF, *buf and *creds (if given) set to NULL
This protect from invalid code at user's side, like:
char *buf;
x = nl_recv(..., &buf, ...);
if (x<=0)
goto cleanup;
cleanup:
free(buf);
3. all intermediate buffers are stored into local variables, and user's
variables only touches at the end.
Based on clang diagnostics:
1. lib/nl.c: recvmsgs(): nla filling with zeros commented.
2. lib/route/classid.c: & lib/route/pktloc.c:
remove zero-filling of struct stat
3. lib/route/qdisc/htb.c: Fix htb_qdisc_msg_fill(): fix zero-filling
4. ematch/container.c: container_parse:

len marked as unused to eliminate compiler warning
"-" was never used in the names of the flags. "_" was used in all places
of the library. So, I just changed the undescore to the minus.
Automatic indentation can insert spaces on either side of the minus,
so the library will be compiled, but will not be usable (in this part of the code),
as the parser will split words by white space, and the flag "admin - perm"
will never work.
Separates all the documentation generation trickery to its own
configure.in and allows to easily generate a pre built doc dist
file for distribution.
Arguments to configure will be passed on to doc/configure
