e562a61a0739 added these two new helper functions and only used them within virnetdev.c, but declared them in the .h file. If some currently unsupported interface flags need to be accessed in the future, it will make more sense to write the appropriate higher level function rather than require us to artificially define IFF_* on some mythical platform that doesn't have SIOC[SG]IFFLAGS (and therefore doesn't have IFF_*) just so we can call virNetDevSetIFFFlags() to return an error. To help someone in not going down the wrong road, this patch makes the two helper functions static, hopefully making it less likely that someone will want to use them outside of virnetdev.c.

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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
