Sven Eckelmann c68dd44fb8 macvtap: advertise link netns via netlink
[ Upstream commit a02192151b7dbf855084c38dca380d77c7658353 ]

Assign rtnl_link_ops->get_link_net() callback so that IFLA_LINK_NETNSID is
added to rtnetlink messages. This fixes iproute2 which otherwise resolved
the link interface to an interface in the wrong namespace.

Test commands:

  ip netns add nst
  ip link add dummy0 type dummy
  ip link add link macvtap0 link dummy0 type macvtap
  ip link set macvtap0 netns nst
  ip -netns nst link show macvtap0

Before:

  10: macvtap0@gre0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 500
      link/ether 5e:8f:ae:1d:60:50 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

After:

  10: macvtap0@if2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 500
      link/ether 5e:8f:ae:1d:60:50 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff link-netnsid 0

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
