Laine Stump 443e37da42 util: allow specifying both src and dst pid in virNetlinkCommand 
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.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
