commit f0e167f0dbadbe2a8d684f63ad9faf68d8cb9884
Diffs: http://openvswitch.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=openvswitch;a=commitdiff;h=f0e167f0dbadbe2a8d684f63ad9faf68d8cb9884

route-table: Handle route updates more robustly.
		
The kernel does not broadcast rtnetlink route messages in all cases
one would expect.  This can cause stale entires to end up in the
route table which may cause incorrect results for
route_table_get_ifindex() queries.  This commit causes rtnetlink
route messages to dump the entire route table on the next
route_table_get_ifindex() query.

route-table: Process route messages more selectively.
		
This commit cleans up the routing table by preventing it from
processing messages which are not relevant for our purposes.

lib: Simplify rtnetlink routing functionality.
		
This commit removes the rtnetlink-route module and replaces it with
a much simpler to use route-table module.  The route-table uses
rtnetlink to maintain a routing table which may be used to query
the egress interface of particular addresses.

This commit also converts netdev-vport to use the new route-table
module.

retnetlink: Add rtnetlink_destroy function.
		
This commit adds a function to rtnetlink which may be used to
destroy struct rtnetlink handles.  This function will be used in a
future commit.
