This should be handled fine now by .dir-locals.el, so need to carry that
stuff in every file.

GLIB has recently started to officially support the gcc cleanup
attribute in its public API, hence let's do the same for our APIs.
With this patch we'll define an xyz_unrefp() call for each public
xyz_unref() call, to make it easy to use inside a
__attribute__((cleanup())) expression. Then, all code is ported over to
make use of this.
The new calls are also documented in the man pages, with examples how to
use them (well, I only added docs where the _unref() call itself already
had docs, and the examples, only cover sd_bus_unrefp() and
sd_event_unrefp()).
This also renames sd_lldp_free() to sd_lldp_unref(), since that's how we
tend to call our destructors these days.
Note that this defines no public macro that wraps gcc's attribute and
makes it easier to use. While I think it's our duty in the library to
make our stuff easy to use, I figure it's not our duty to make gcc's own
features easy to use on its own. Most likely, client code which wants to
make use of this should define its own:
#define _cleanup_(function) __attribute__((cleanup(function)))
Or similar, to make the gcc feature easier to use.
Making this logic public has the benefit that we can remove three header
files whose only purpose was to define these functions internally.
See #2008.

This is a continuation of the previous include sort patch, which
only sorted for .c files.

Rename struct 'tlv_packet' to 'sd_lldp_packet' and struct
'tlv_section' to 'sd_lldp_section' since the former is referenced in
public header sd-lldp.h.

LLDP TLVs of type 127 are used to carry organizationally specific
information and include additional fields to specify the OUI and
subtype.
Add support for parsing such fields and functions to access the most
common IEEE 802.1 specific TLVs.

It can be useful to know the destination address of a LLDP frame
because it determines the scope of propagation of the frame and thus
this information be used to know whether the neighbor is connected to
the same physical link.
See clause 7.1 of IEEE Std 802.1AB-2009.

Export struct tlv_packet as a public opaque sd_lldp_packet type and
make its accessor functions public.
|
|
Add a reference counter to the tlv_packet structure so that it can be
shared between multiple users and properly free'd when no longer in
use.

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.
