Fix vlan_get_size to include vlan->flags. Currently, the
size of the vlan flags is not included in the nlmsg size.Signed-off-by: John Fastabend

vlan devices are currently not multi-queue capable.
We can do that with a new rtnl_link_ops method,
get_tx_queues(), called from rtnl_create_link()This new method gets num_tx_queues/real_num_tx_queues
from real device.register_vlan_device() is also handled.

Add GVRP support for dynamically registering VLANs with switches.
By default GVRP is disabled because we only support the applicant-only
participant model, which means it should not be enabled on vlans that
are members of a bridge. Since there is currently no way to cleanly
determine that, the user is responsible for enabling it.The code is pretty small and low impact, its wrapped in a config
option though because it depends on the GARP implementation and
the STP core.Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy

Change vlan_dev_set_vlan_flag() to handle multiple flags at once and
rename to vlan_dev_change_flags(). This allows to to use it from the
netlink interface, which in turn allows to handle necessary adjustments
when changing flags centrally.Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy

This one is similar to what I've done for TUN - set the proper
net after device allocation and clean VLANs on net exit (use the
rtnl_kill_links helper finally).Plus, drop explicit init_net usage and net != &init_net checks.

Keep track of the number of VLAN devices in a vlan group. This allows
to have the caller sense when the group is going to be destroyed and
stop using it, which in turn allows to remove the wrapper around
unregister_vlan_dev for the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier and avoid
iterating over all possible VLAN ids whenever a device in unregistered.Also fix what looks like a use-after-free (but is actually safe since
we're holding the RTNL), the real_dev reference should not be dropped
while we still use it.Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy

This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables. The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctlwere modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.For now the ifindex generator is left global.
Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman

Drivers need to validate the initial addresses in their netlink attribute
validation function or manually reject them if they can't support this.Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy
