- improved stylesheets for both doxygen and asciidoc
- use of xml doxygen layout
- python script to resolve <<foo>> asciidoc references to
<<foo, title>> based on the target caption
- graphics for netlink and netlink error headers
- more link documentation
stores rtnl_link object in address if cache is availble. Provide access
via rtnl_addr_get_link() and rtnl_addr_set_link().
Add rtnl_addr_get() which searches a address cache for an address
matching ifindex and local address.
OK i found the bug, is is the patch !!
Can someone push it into the git tree ?

=========================
My analysis:
I guess that the pay load is *struct fib_rule_hdr*
struct fib_rule_hdr {
__u8 family;
__u8 dst_len;
__u8 src_len;
__u8 tos;
__u8 table;
__u8 res1; /* reserved */
__u8 res2; /* reserved */
__u8 action;
__u32 flags;
};
> [PAYLOAD] 12 octets
> 02 00 00 00 0a 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 ............
so
family = 02 , fine
table = 10, fine
but
src_len =0 !!!! should be 32
Adds rtnl_tc_get_link() returning the link associated with a tc
object.
Don't clone link associated with tc object when cloning the tc
object, refer to same link instead and bump refcnt.
Fix refcnt leak when assigning link in msg parser.
- avoid unncessary name change requests
The kernel does not check if the specified IFNAME is different
from the current name. It assumes that if IFNAME and ifindex
are both specified, a name change is requested. Therefore avoid
specyfing IFNAME if ifindex is provided and original and new
name are identical.
- move link building to own function (to allow link add later on)
- error if immutable changes have been made
- better documentation
Provide nl_pickup() to pick up an answer from a netlink request and parse
it using the supplied parser.
Add rtnl_link_get_kernel() which sends an RTM_GETLINK to the kernel to
fetch a single link directly from the kernel. This can be faster than
dumping the whole table, especially if lots of links are configured.
The core library documentation has been converted to use asciidoc. It
provides better flexibility in creating documentation such as tables
and more powerful formatting rules.
The doxygen based API reference remains and three scripts have been
added to:
- gen-tags.sh: extract tag information from doxygen reference
- tags2dict.sh: generate a name=link dictionary file
- doxygen-link.py: replace all references in the asciidoc documentation
refering to API functions, struct, etc. with a link
into the doxygen API reference.
'make gendoc' continue to generate all documentation.
The following tools are required to generate documentation:
- asciidoc
- mscgen
- asciidoc mscgen plugin
- pygments
- xmlstarlet
- removed dead functions in header files
- deprecated rtnl_class_foreach_*() functions due to their missing
handling possibility of OOM situations
- improved API documentation
Deprecated the functions rtnl_qdisc_change() and
rtnl_qdisc_build_change_request() for their lack of being able to
specify flags. The new functions rtnl_qdisc_update() and
rtnl_qdisc_build_update_request() may be used instead. The old
functions are still available though. However, rtnl_qdisc_update()
no longer implies NLM_F_REPLACE, it has to specified implicitely
to allow updating a qdisc without risking to replace another qdisc.
Included detailed documentation of qdisc addition/update/deletion.
Introduced APPBUG() macro to let application developer know of
API abuse.
