Will be used by nftables nfnetlink backend.
It sends a series of netlink messages that form a nftables
update transaction.
The transaction will then generate a series of ack messages
(or an error).
This function will be used to read these acks.
nftables uses a transaction-based netlink model: one netlink write
comes with multiple messages.
A 'BEGIN' message to tell nf_tables/kernel that a new transaction starts.
Then, one more messages to add/delete tables/chains/rules etc.
Lastly, an END message that commits all changes.
This function will be used to send all the individual messages that should
make up a single transaction as a single write.
add nfnetlink_nftables helper functions to:
* open a new nfnetlink socket to kernel
* add tables, chains, rules, sets and maps
* delete/flush table
* add and delete elements from sets/maps
The combination of sd_netlink_message_enter_container() and
sd_netlink_message_read_string() only reads the last element if the attribute is
duplicated, such a situation easily happens for IFLA_ALT_IFNAME.
The function introduced here reads all matched attributes.
sd-netlink is not public yet, so we can change the interface.
I did not touch interfaces of functions like sd_netlink_wait() and
sd_rtnl_message_new_link() which do not modify the object that is passed in,
because in the future we might want to change the code to e.g. take a
reference to the parent object or otherwise require a non-const reference.
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
Found by inspecting results of running this small program:
int main(int argc, const char **argv) {
for (int i = 1; i < argc; i++) {
FILE *f;
char line[1024], prev[1024], *r;
int lineno;
prev[0] = '\0';
lineno = 1;
f = fopen(argv[i], "r");
if (!f)
exit(1);
do {
r = fgets(line, sizeof(line), f);
if (!r)
break;
if (strcmp(line, prev) == 0)
printf("%s:%d: error: dup %s", argv[i], lineno, line);
lineno++;
strcpy(prev, line);
} while (!feof(f));
fclose(f);
}
}
This work add support to generic netlink to sd-netlink.

This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
This also adds the ability to incorporate arrays into netlink messages
and to determine when a netlink message is too big, used by some generic
netlink protocols.
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
Introduce
1. sd_rtnl_message_route_set_table to set table ID
2. sd_rtnl_message_route_set_family to set family
Both required to configure route properties.
