2014-12-19sd-lldp: minor header cleanupTom Gundersen
* (potentially) public headers must reside in src/systemd/ (not in src/libsystemd*) * some private (not prefixed with sd_) functions moved from sd-lldp.h to lldp-internal.h * introduce lldp-util.h for the cleanup macro, as these should not be public * rename the cleanup macro, we always name them _cleanup_foo_, never _cleanup_sd_foo_ * mark some function arguments as 'const'
2014-12-19networkd: Introduce Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)Susant Sahani
This patch introduces LLDP support to networkd. it implements the receiver side of the protocol. The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is an industry-standard, vendor-neutral method to allow networked devices to advertise capabilities, identity, and other information onto a LAN. The Layer 2 protocol, detailed in IEEE 802.1AB-2005.LLDP allows network devices that operate at the lower layers of a protocol stack (such as Layer 2 bridges and switches) to learn some of the capabilities and characteristics of LAN devices available to higher layer protocols.
