addresses per interface (needed for example for IPv6 support).
Visible changes:
o struct iface now contains a list of all interface addresses (represented
by struct ifa), iface->addr points to the primary address (if any).
o Interface has IF_UP set iff it's up and it has a primary address.
o IF_UP is now independent on IF_IGNORED (i.e., you need to test IF_IGNORED
in the protocols; I've added this, but please check).
o The if_notify_change hook has been simplified (only one interface pointer
etc.).
o Introduced a ifa_notify_change hook. (For now, only the Direct protocol
does use it -- it's wise to just listen to device routes in all other
protocols.)
o Removed IF_CHANGE_FLAGS notifier flag (it was meaningless anyway).
o Updated all the code except netlink (I'll look at it tomorrow) to match
the new semantics (please look at your code to ensure I did it right).
Things to fix:
o Netlink.
o Make krt-iface interpret "eth0:1"-type aliases as secondary addresses.

This avoids few nasty references to free memory.
|
|
o Introduced if_find_by_index()
o Recognizing two types of interface updates: full update (starting with
if_start_update(), ending with if_end_update(), guaranteed to see
all existing interfaces) and a partial update (only if_update(),
usually due to asynchronous interface notifications).

o Introduced IF_LINK_UP flag corresponding to real link state.
o Allowed addressless interfaces.
o IF_UP is now automatically calculated and set iff the interface
is administratively up, has link up and has an IP address assigned.
It may be IF_IGNORED, though (as in case of the loopback).
o Any changes which include up/down transition are considered small
enough to not provoke artificial upping and downing of the interface.
o When an interface disappears (i.e., it wasn't seen in the last scan),
we announce this change only once.
o IF_LOOPBACK implies IF_IGNORE.

file and different in reality. Decided to use the same order as we do
for proto->rt_notify (i.e., first new value and second the old one).

o iface_patt_match(list, iface) -- match interface against list
o iface_patts_equal(a, b, c) -- compare whether two pattern lists are
equal or not. c(x,y) is called for comparison of protocol-dependent
data.

regular interface addresses" rule).
Protocols should NOT rely on router_id existence -- when router ID is not
available, the router_id variable is set to zero and protocols requiring
valid router ID should just refuse to start, reporting such error to the log.

protocols and don't send route/interface updates to them and when they come up,
we resend the whole route/interface tables privately.
Removed the "scan interface list after protocol start" work-around.

interface since it makes much trouble everywhere. Instead, we understand
secondary addresses as subinterfaces.
- In case interface addresses or basic flags change, we simply convert it
to a down/up sequence.
- Implemented the universal neighbour cache. (Just forget what did previous
includes say of neighbour caching, this one is brand new.)

terrible kernel interface (SIOGIFCONF and friends).
