This patch adds netdev ipvtap that is based on the
IP-VLAN network interface, called ipvtap. An ipvtap device can be created
in the same way as an ipvlan device, using 'kind ipvtap', and then accessed
using the tap user space interface.
Allow users to set the IPv4 DF bit in outgoing packets, or to inherit its
value from the IPv4 inner header. If the encapsulated protocol is IPv6 and
DF is configured to be inherited, always set it.
It makes more sense to call VXLAN ID as
1. the VXLAN Network Identifier (VNI) (or VXLAN Segment ID)
2. test-network: rename VXLAN Id to VNI
3. fuzzer: Add VXLAN VNI directive to fuzzer
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.

This cleans up handling of MTU values across the codebase. Previously
MTU values where stored sometimes in uint32_t, sometimes in uint16_t,
sometimes unsigned and sometimes in size_t. This now unifies this to
uint32_t across the codebase, as that's what netlink spits out, and what
the majority was already using.
Also, all MTU parameters are now parsed with config_parse_mtu() and
config_parse_ipv6_mtu() is dropped as it is now unneeded.
(Note there is one exception for the MTU typing: in the DCHPv4 code we
continue to process the MTU as uint16_t value, as it is encoded like
that in the protocol, and it's probably better stay close to the
protocol there.)
This adds a simple condition/assert/match to the service manager, to
udev's .link handling and to networkd, for matching the kernel version
string.
In this version we only do fnmatch() based globbing, but we might want
to extend that to version comparisons later on, if we like, by slightly
extending the syntax with ">=", "<=", ">", "<" and "==" expressions.
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.
Now we don't support tunnels to be created without a .network file
that is we need a interface index.
This work allows tunnel to be created without a ifindex.
Closes#6695
Other parts of the code do just use `table` as identifier for the actual
routing table id. This change should make it easier to read through the
code since the meaning or rather the name stays the same.
Previously there was only `VRF.TableId` which only supported numeric
identifiers for routing table. With the additiona of
`config_parse_route_table` also names can be used as identifiers.
this patch makes it possible to configure a vlan aware bridge without the
PVID. To configure no PVID set DefaultPVID=none in the [BridgeVLAN] section.
