[iproute PATCH 01/20] ip: align help text with manpage

[Phil Sutter]

Although the ip command accepts both "neighbor" and "neighbour" as
subcommand, I assume it's sufficient to list it in help text as just
"neigh" like ip.8 does.

[iproute PATCH v2 06/20] iproute: TYPE keyword is not optional, fix help text accordingly

[Phil Sutter]

This is a bit pedantic, but brackets ([]) show optional values and since
TYPE must not become empty, they're not suited to surround the type
keyword choices. Use curly braces instead.

Also add some missing whitespace to the parameter list above.

But iproute2 seems to still support it? At least it's listed in
rtnl_rtntype_a2n().

The entry for RTN_NAT in net/ipv4/fib_semantics.c though looks like just
a stub. But at least it hasn't changed since the beginning of Git.
According to ip-route.8 it's indeed non-functional.

I only concerned help text and man page consistency, and since the man
page lists it (with a useful hint about it's state), the help text
should contain it either. Or do you think that's misleading?

Thanks, Phil

Yeah it is gone. The cloud providers i know of that needed stateless
nat use tc nat.

[Phil Sutter]

Clarify that the optional '-' prefix of the 'tentative', 'deprecated'
and 'dadfailed' keywords has to be put right in front of them, no
whitespace is allowed in between.

In addition to that, clarify that it is valid to pass both 'valid_lft'
and 'preferred_lft' at the same time to 'ip address'.

[iproute PATCH 06/20] iproute: TYPE keyword is not optional, fix help text accordingly

[Phil Sutter]

This is a bit pedantic, but brackets ([]) show optional values and since
TYPE must not become empty, they're not suited to surround the type
keyword choices. Use curly braces instead.

Also add some missing whitespace to the parameter list above.

[iproute PATCH 08/20] man: ip-address.8: Minor syntax fixes

[Phil Sutter]

Clarify that the optional '-' prefix of the 'tentative', 'deprecated'
and 'dadfailed' keywords has to be put right in front of them, no
whitespace is allowed in between.

In addition to that, clarify that it is valid to pass both 'valid_lft'
and 'preferred_lft' at the same time to 'ip address'.

[iproute PATCH 19/20] man: ip-l2tp.8: Fix BNF syntax

[Phil Sutter]

The 'ADDR' part of 'local' and 'remote' parameters is not optional, but
may also consist of the word 'any'. While at it, add missing whitespace
and fix fonts.

[iproute PATCH 20/20] man: ip-*.8: drop any reference to generic ip options

[Phil Sutter]

Listing generic 'ip' options in subcommand man pages is redundant and
error-prone, as they won't be kept in sync anyway. Since many other man
pages don't list them either, drop references to them in the remaining
ones.
