tipc: add bearer disable/enable to new netlink api A new netlink API for tipc that can disable or enable a tipc bearer. The new API is separated from the old API because of a bug in the user space client (tipc-config). The problem is that older versions of tipc-config has a very low receive limit and adding commands to the legacy genl_opts struct causes the ctrl_getfamily() response message to grow, subsequently breaking the tool. The new API utilizes netlink policies for input validation. Where the top-level netlink attributes are tipc-logical entities, like bearer. The top level entities then contain nested attributes. In this case a name, nested link properties and a domain. Netlink commands implemented in this patch: TIPC_NL_BEARER_ENABLE TIPC_NL_BEARER_DISABLE Netlink logical layout of bearer enable message: -> bearer -> name [ -> domain ] [ -> properties -> priority ] Netlink logical layout of bearer disable message: -> bearer -> name Signed-off-by: Richard Alpe <richard.alpe@ericsson.com> Reviewed-by: Erik Hugne <erik.hugne@ericsson.com> Reviewed-by: Jon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericsson.com> Acked-by: Ying Xue <ying.xue@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

tipc: move and rename the legacy nl api to "nl compat" The new netlink API is no longer "v2" but rather the standard API and the legacy API is now "nl compat". We split them into separate start/stop and put them in different files in order to further distinguish them.

tipc: add bearer get/dump to new netlink api Add TIPC_NL_BEARER_GET command to the new tipc netlink API. This command supports dumping all data about all bearers or getting all information about a specific bearer. The information about a bearer includes name, link priorities and domain.
