Build option "link-networkd-shared" to build a statically linked
systemd-networkd by using
-Dlink-udev-shared=false -Dlink-networkd-shared=false
on systems with full systemd stack except systemd-networkd, such
as RHEL/CentOS 8.
Intermediate Functional Block
The Intermediate Functional Block (ifb) pseudo network interface acts as a QoS concentrator for multiple different sources of traffic. Packets from or to other interfaces have to be redirected to it using the mirred action in order to be handled, regularly routed traffic will be dropped. This way, a single stack of qdiscs, classes and filters can be shared between multiple interfaces.
Here's a simple example to feed incoming traffic from multiple interfaces through a Stochastic Fairness Queue (sfq):
(1) # modprobe ifb
(2) # ip link set ifb0 up
(3) # tc qdisc add dev ifb0 root sfq
Stochastic Fairness Queueing is a classless queueing discipline.
SFQ does not shape traffic but only schedules the transmission of packets, based on 'flows'.
The goal is to ensure fairness so that each flow is able to send data in turn,
thus preventing any single flow from drowning out the rest.
Media Access Control Security (MACsec) is an 802.1AE IEEE
industry-standard security technology that provides secure
communication for all traffic on Ethernet links.
MACsec provides point-to-point security on Ethernet links between
directly connected nodes and is capable of identifying and preventing
most security threats, including denial of service, intrusion,
man-in-the-middle, masquerading, passive wiretapping, and playback attacks.
Closes#5754
When using networkd we currently have no way of ensuring that static
neighbor entries are set when our link comes up. This change adds a new
section to the network definition that allows multiple static neighbors
to be set on a link.
This work add support to generic netlink to sd-netlink.

networkd: add support FooOverUDP support to IPIP tunnel netdev

This "netdevsim" as implied by the name is a tool for network developers and is a simulator.
This simulated networking device is used for testing various networking APIs and at this time
is particularly focused on testing hardware offloading related interfaces.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
This reduces the meson man=false target count to 1281.
v2:
- link test-engine with libshared instead of libsystemd_static
Previous version built fine on F27, but fails on F26 with the following error:
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccr8HRGw.ltrans6.ltrans.o: undefined reference to symbol '__start_BUS_ERROR_MAP@@SD_SHARED'
/home/zbyszek/fedora/systemd/systemd-9d5aae75c64f5583a110f03b94816aacc03bbf4d/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu/src/shared/libsystemd-shared-236.so: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line
v3:
- add libudev_basic
Similar to the virtual ethernet driver veth, vxcan implements a
local CAN traffic tunnel between two virtual CAN network devices.
When creating a vxcan, two vxcan devices are created as pair
When one end receives the packet it appears on its pair and vice
versa. The vxcan can be used for cross namespace communication.
So far I avoided adding license headers to meson files, but they are pretty
big and important and should carry license headers like everything else.
I added my own copyright, even though other people modified those files too.
But this is mostly symbolic, so I hope that's OK.
The advantage is that is the name is mispellt, cpp will warn us.

squash! build-sys: use #if Y instead of #ifdef Y everywhere

Routing Policy rule manipulates rules in the routing policy database control the
route selection algorithm.
This work supports to configure Rule
```
[RoutingPolicyRule]
TypeOfService=0x08
Table=7
From= 192.168.100.18
```
```
ip rule show
0: from all lookup local
0: from 192.168.100.18 tos 0x08 lookup 7
```
V2 changes:
1. Added logic to handle duplicate rules.
2. If rules are changed or deleted and networkd restarted
then those are deleted when networkd restarts next time
V3:
1. Add parse_fwmark_fwmask
Three binaries would fail to link when ld.bfd was used and link-udev-shared was
false. Add -pthreads (again) to the failing binaries and synchronize the
dependency list between libsystemd-shared .a and .so versions.
Apart from allowing the build to succeed, this shouldn't have much effect becuase
systemd-networkd was already using pthreads.
Fixes#5828.
Using conf.set() with a boolean argument does the right thing:
either #ifdef or #undef. This means that conf.set can be used unconditionally.
Previously I used '1' as the placeholder value, and that needs to be changed to
'true' for consistency (under meson 1 cannot be used in boolean context). All
checks need to be adjusted.
