* iproute2: add support for GRE ignore-df knobPhilip Prindeville2017-07-201-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the presence of firewalls which improperly block ICMP Unreachable (including Fragmentation Required) messages, Path MTU Discovery is prevented from working. The workaround is to handle IPv4 payloads opaquely, ignoring the DF bit. Kernel commit 22a59be8b7693eb2d0897a9638f5991f2f8e4ddd ("net: ipv4: Add ability to have GRE ignore DF bit in IPv4 payloads") is complemented by this user-space changeset which exposes control of this setting.

* Add ip rule save/restoreKirill Tkhai2015-10-221-0/+36
| | | | | | | | | | This patch adds save and restore commands to "ip rule" similar the same is made in commit f4ff11e3e298 for "ip route". The feature is useful in checkpoint/restore for container migration, also it may be helpful in some normal situations. Signed-off-by: Kirill Tkhai <ktkhai@odin.com>

| | | | | | | | Prefix labelling is currently only activated when monitoring "all" objects. However, the output can still be confusing when monitoring more than 1 object, so add an option to always print prefix labels. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwenke <martin@meltin.net>

* Add ip route save/restoreDan Smith2010-12-011-0/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds save and restore commands to "ip route". Save dumps the RTNL stream to stdout which can then be passed to restore later. This may be helpful in some normal situations, and will allow C/R to migrate the routing information in userspace. Tweaking of the stream can be done by userspace helpers to convert between versions and adjust things like device indexes when restoring routes in a different environment. By factoring out some of the common bits of print_route() into filter_nlmsg(), the "save" command can use the same selection logic as "list," allowing the caller to save only specific routes as necessary. The only change since the RFC is the addition of manpage and doc material. Signed-off-by: Dan Smith <danms@us.ibm.com>
* Add initrwnd to iproute2laurent chavey2010-03-031-0/+7
| | | | | | | | Add initrwnd option parsing to iproute. This option uses the new rtnetlink init_rcvwnd to set the TCP initial receive window size advertised by passive and active TCP connections. Signed-off-by: Laurent Chavey <chavey@google.com>
* iproute2: drop equalize supportAndreas Henriksson2010-02-091-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently you can configure "equalize" and it looks all fine and dandy. The kernel has the interface defined, but apparently there's never actually been any implementation for it (only a never merged patch in the 2.4 era). I'm suggesting to drop the code to give any potential users of this feature the benefit of receiving a proper error message. I see it unlikely that this will be implemented in the near future, but if it ever happens reviving the iproute2 side should be as easy as git revert this patch. For more details see http://bugs.debian.org/149897

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hi Stephen, I resend you this patch once more. This time I updated the documentation too (may be that was the reason why you didn't take it before?). Please tell me if there are other things missing in this patch It applies on iproute2 git tree. Regards, Benjamin Description: ------------ This patch adds support for the IFLA_NET_NS_PID type. It is used to move network devices between network namespaces. The syntax is: ip link set DEVICE netns PID PID is the pid of a process in the target network namespace. (Daniel Lezcano is the original author).
