The virNetlinkCommand() method takes an 'unsigned char **'
parameter to be filled with the received netlink message.
The callers then immediately cast this to 'struct nlmsghdr',
triggering (bogus) warnings about increasing alignment
requirements
util/virnetdev.c: In function 'virNetDevLinkDump':
util/virnetdev.c:1300:12: warning: cast increases required alignment of target type [-Wcast-align]
resp = (struct nlmsghdr *)*recvbuf;

util/virnetdev.c: In function 'virNetDevSetVfConfig':
util/virnetdev.c:1429:12: warning: cast increases required alignment of target type [-Wcast-align]
resp = (struct nlmsghdr *)recvbuf;
Since all callers cast to 'struct nlmsghdr' we can avoid
the warning problem entirely by simply changing the
signature of virNetlinkCommand to return a 'struct nlmsghdr **'
instead of 'unsigned char **'. The way we do the cast inside
virNetlinkCommand does not have any alignment issues.

Previous commit 0b4b53bb80 defined 'inline' to prevent broken build on
systems with libnl1 headers. However, it broke build on systems with
libnl3 headers. Therefore we must make that fix conditional.
Ubuntu 10.04 shipped with out-of-the-box libnl1 headers, which
assumed the old gcc semantics of 'extern inline' as a C89 extension:
the function will _always_ be inline if it is used, and that
it may be declared extern inline in headers without a definition,
as long as the definition occurs before any use. But when C99
added 'extern inline' as a mandatory feature of the language, with
slightly different semantics than gcc (the function MUST have
external linkage, and the inline definition MUST be present
alongside any declaration, where the compiler can then choose
which of the two versions to use), this rendered the use of
'inline' in libnl's header obsolete. Most distros already solved
this by removing 'inline' (the resulting 'extern' is correct,
regardless of gcc semantics), and libnl-3 does not have the
problem (where it has switched to 'static inline' instead, again
with the definition present, and again, our hack will result in
plain 'static' with no ill effects). But for the case of building
out of the box, we hack around the broken Ubuntu header.

Introduce new members in the virMacAddr 'class'
- virMacAddrSet: set virMacAddr from a virMacAddr
- virMacAddrSetRaw: setting virMacAddr from raw 6 byte MAC address buffer
- virMacAddrGetRaw: writing virMacAddr into raw 6 byte MAC address buffer
- virMacAddrCmp: comparing two virMacAddr
- virMacAddrCmpRaw: comparing a virMacAddr with a raw 6 byte MAC address buffer
then replace raw MAC addresses by replacing
- 'unsigned char *' with virMacAddrPtr
- 'unsigned char ... [VIR_MAC_BUFLEN]' with virMacAddr
and introduce usage of above functions where necessary.
We were being lazy - virnetlink.c was getting uint32_t as a
side-effect from glibc 2.14's <unistd.h>, but older glibc 2.11
does not provide uint32_t from <unistd.h>. In fact, POSIX states
that <unistd.h> need only provide intptr_t, not all of <stdint.h>,
so the bug really is ours. Reported by Jonathan Alescio.
* src/util/virnetlink.h: Include <stdint.h>.
This value will be needed to set the src_pid when sending netlink
messages to lldpad. It is part of the solution to:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=816465
Note that libnl's port generation algorithm guarantees that the
nl_socket_get_local_port() will always be > 0 (since it is "getpid() +
(n << 22>" where n is always < 1024), so it is okay to cast the
uint32_t to int (thus allowing us to use -1 as an error sentinel).
Until now, virNetlinkCommand has assumed that the nl_pid in the source
address of outgoing netlink messages should always be the return value
of getpid(). In most cases it actually doesn't matter, but in the case
of communication with lldpad, lldpad saves this info and later uses it
to send netlink messages back to libvirt. A recent patch to fix Bug
816465 changed the order of the universe such that the netlink event
service socket is no longer bound with nl_pid == getpid(), so lldpad
could no longer send unsolicited messages to libvirtd. Adding src_pid
as an argument to virNetlinkCommand() is the first step in notifying
lldpad of the proper address of the netlink event service socket.
This patch adds the following:
- functions to set and get vf configs
- Functions to replace and store vf configs (Only mac address is handled today.
But the functions can be easily extended for vlans and other vf configs)
- function to dump link dev info (This is moved from virnetdevvportprofile.c)

It is based upon the event_poll code and makes use of
it. An event is generated for each netlink message sent
to the libvirt pid.
