The following bond options are supported by this patch.
MIIMonitorSec:
Specifies the frequency in milli-seconds that MII link
monitoring will occur.
UpDelaySec:
Specifies the delay time in milli-seconds to enable a link
after a link up status has been detected.
DownDelaySec:
Specifies the delay time in milli-seconds to disable a link
after a link failure has been detected.

LacpduTransmitRate
option specifies the rate in which link partner to transmit
LACPDU packets in 802.3ad mode. Possible values
slow : Request partner to transmit LACPDUs every 30 seconds
fast : Request partner to transmit LACPDUs every 1 second
The default is slow.

Let's settle on a single type for all address family values, even if
UNIX is very inconsitent on the precise type otherwise. Given that
socket() is the primary entrypoint for the sockets API, and that uses
"int", and "int" is relatively simple and generic, we settle on "int"
for this.
Do not expose link_is_loopback, people should just get this from rtnl directly.
Do not expose NTP servers as IP addresses, these must be strings.
Expose ifindex as int, not unsigned. This is what the kernel (mostly) and glibc uses.
Rather than refetching the link information on ever event, we liston to
rtnl to track them. Much code stolen from resolved.
This will allow us to simplify the sd-network api and don't expose
information available over rtnl.
As long as the number of array entries is relatively small it's nicer to
simply return the number of entries directly, instead of using a size_t*
return parameter for it.
Constructors should return the object they created as first parameter,
except when they are generated as a child/member object of some other
object in which case that should be first.
Special care is needed so that we get an error message if the
file failed to parse, but not when it is missing. To avoid duplicating
the same error check in every caller, add an additional 'warn' boolean
to tell config_parse whether a message should be issued.
This makes things both shorter and more robust wrt. to error reporting.
It appears there is no good way to decide whether or not broadcasts should be enabled,
there is hardware that must have broadcast, and there are networks that only allow
unicast. So we give up and make this configurable.
By default, unicast is used, but if the kernel were to inform us abotu certain
interfaces requiring broadcast, we could change this to opt-in by default in
those cases.
Vendor Class Identifier be used by DHCP clients to identify
their vendor type and configuration. When using this option,
vendors can define their own specific identifier values, such
as to convey a particular hardware or operating system
configuration or other identifying information.
Vendor-specified DHCP options—features that let administrators assign
separate options to clients with similar configuration requirements.
For example, if DHCP-aware clients for example we want to separate
different gateway and option for different set of people
(dev/test/hr/finance) in a org or devices for example web/database
servers or let's say in a embedded device etc and require a different
default gateway or DNS server than the rest of clients.
Now route metric can be configuted via conf file:
example conf:
[Match]
Name=em1
[Route]
Gateway=192.168.1.12
Metric=10
Test:
ip route output
default via 192.168.1.12 dev em1 metric 10
[tomegun: squash TODO update and reword man page a bit]
This patch adds supports networkd to configure bond mode
during creation via persistent conf. Mode can be configured
with conf param 'Mode'. A new section Bond is added to the
conf to support bond mode.
These modes can be configured now.

This patch adds peer address support for
networkd . In the [Address] a new configurable
param is Peer.
[Match]
Name=ipip-tun
[Address]
Address=10.0.0.1/32
Peer=10.0.0.2/32
When doing a NEWADDR, the reply we get back is the NEWADDR itself, rather
than just an empty ack (unlike how NEWLINK works). For this reason, the
process that did the NEWADDR does not get the broadcast message.
We were only listening for broadcast messages, and hence not tracking the
addresses we added ourselves. This went unnoticed as the kernel will usually
send NEWADDR messages from time to time anyway, so things would mostly work,
but in the worst case we would not notice that a routable address was available
and consider ourselves offline.
