Rework and simplification of teardown of the macvtap device.
Basically all devices with the same MAC address and link device are kept
alive and not attempted to be torn down. If a macvtap device linked to a
physical interface with a certain MAC address 'M' is to be created it
will automatically fail if the interface is 'up'ed and another macvtap
with the same properties (MAC addr 'M', link dev) happens to be 'up'.
This will prevent the VM from starting or the device from being attached
to a running VM. Stale interfaces are assumed to be there for some
reason and not stem from libvirt.
In the VM shutdown path, it's assuming that an interface name is always
available so that if the device type is DIRECT it can be torn down
using its name.
* src/util/macvtap.h src/libvirt_macvtap.syms: change of deleting routine
* src/util/macvtap.c: cleanups and change of deleting routine
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: change cleanup on shutdown
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: don't delete Macvtap in qemudPhysIfaceConnect()
This part adds the helper code to setup and tear down macvtap devices
using direct communication with the device driver via netlink sockets.
The rather short messages received from the netlink layer are now
written into a dynamically allocated buffer
* src/util/macvtap.h src/util/macvtap.c: provides the new module
* po/POTFILES.in: the module contains translated strings
This patch adds build support for libvirt checking for certain contents
of /usr/include/linux/if_link.h to see whether macvtap support is
compilable on that system. One can disable macvtap support in libvirt
via --without-macvtap passed to configure.
* configure.ac src/Makefile.am: new build support
* src/libvirt_macvtap.syms: list of exported symbols
* src/util/macvtap.c: empty module to not break compilation
