[PATCH iproute2 V1 0/5] RDMAtool

[Leon Romanovsky <leon@kernel.org>]

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@mellanox.com>

Hi,

This is second version of series implementing the RDAMtool -  the tool
to configure RDMA devices. The initial proposal was sent as RFC [1] and
was based on sysfs entries as POC.

The current series was rewritten completely to work with RDMA netlinks as
a source of user<->kernel communications. In order to achieve that, the
RDMA netlinks were extensively refactored and modernized [2, 3, 4 and 5].

Changelog
v0->v1:
 * Moved hunk with changes in man/Makefile from first patch to the last patch
 * Removed the "unknown command" from the examples in commit messages
 * Removed special "caps" parsing command and put it to be part of general "show" command
 * Changed parsed capability format to be similar to iproute2 suite
 * Added FW version as an output of show command.
 * Added forgotten CAP_FLAGS to the nla_policy list
RFC->v0:
 * Removed everything that is not implemented yet.
 * Abandoned sysfs interfaces in favor of netlink.
