This patch enables filtering of gratuitous ARP packets using the following XML:
<rule action='accept' direction='in' priority='425'>
<arp gratuitous='true'/>
</rule>
Qemu currently sends an Ethernet packet with protocol id 0x835 once a VM
was successfully migrated. The content of the packet looks like a
gratuitous RARP, just with the wrong protocol ID, which should be
0x8035. I wrote some filters to let either one of the packets pass and
am adapting the clean-traffic sample filter to use it. I am also
doing some changes on the existing ARP filter which was lacking a
test for source MAC address.
During an out-of-tree build, the current working directory is the build
directory. Since the FILTERS are static and not modified or
auto-generated during the build process, they need to be explicitly
fetched from the source directory during install.
Prefix the files with $(srcdir), which gets expanded to the absolute or
relative path to the source directory, even when duing out-of-tree
builds.
