Since vxlan is new-ish, and vxlan IPv6 support in particular has only
been in the kernel since 3.11, we include our own copy of the vxlan
netlink constants rather than depending on the installed headers.
Remove the "silent_on_error" flag from nm_platform_sysctl_get(), and
make both get() and set() log at debug level on ENOENT and error level
on all other errors, always.
Also ensure that we don't sometimes write "failed to set 'x' to 'y':
Success" when a partial write occurs.
In some cases, an error when reading the sysctl value can be expected.
In this case, we want to suppress the error message

In the migration to NMPlatform, support for ptp/peer addresses was
accidentally dropped. This broke OpenVPN configurations using 'p2p'
topology, which send a different peer address than the local address
for tunX, plus the server may also push routes that use the peer
address as the next hop. NetworkManager was unable to add these
routes, because the kernel had no idea how to talk to the peer,
because the peer's address was not assigned to any interface or
reachable over any routes.
Partly based on a patch from Dan Williams.
Most places except the tests don't want the default route when asking
the platform for all routes, so make that simpler by just adding a
parameter for including the default route or not.
This requires a very recent kernel to even compile, and the kernel
code is still rapidly changing (eg, adding IPv6 support). So take it
out for now, until it stabilizes.
This reverts commit 7f0f04d106.
This is a simple testing tool. Even though it includes a basic help (just run
it without arguments), the command syntax often requires looking into the
code. Use it whenever you want to test specific behavior of nm-platform.
For regular tests, please amend the automatic testsuite instead.
