We have a copy of a few linux user space headers in `src/linux-headers`.
The idea is that we want to use recent kernel API, and not depend on the
kernel UAPI headers installed on the build system (and not need to
workaround that).
However, we may not be able to simply compile them, because they too
have dependencies. For example,
../src/linux-headers/ethtool.h:1389:2: error: implicit declaration of function '__KERNEL_DIV_ROUND_UP' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
__u32 queue_mask[__KERNEL_DIV_ROUND_UP(MAX_NUM_QUEUE, 32)];
^
As workaround, don't include headers from "linux-headers" directly,
but only include the new "libnm-std-aux/nm-linux-compat.h" adapter
header, which tries to solve these incompatibilities.
Fixes: 34d48d2596 ('platform: clear all BASE types when setting advertised modes for ethernet autoneg')
We should write our CONTRIBUTING files in markdown syntax, because
it's nice to read a plain text and gets nicely rendered.
However, if the file doesn't have a ".md" extension, gitlab's
web interface shows it as plain text file.
Rename the file.
This possibly breaks links like [1], but referring to a branch name
(and not a commit ID or a tag) is anyway fragile. Hence, I don't try
to fix that by adding a symlink or similar, because I think that just
makes it more confusing.
