Subject: network: introduce a interface named lxc_netdev_isup().
X-Git-Tag: lxc-1.1.0.alpha3~73
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=efa1cf45a23c450b4566705f2fe46fc22a0a6482;p=thirdparty%2Flxc.git

network: introduce a interface named lxc_netdev_isup().

When we need to know some info about a netdev, such as is_up or not,
we need to read the flag for the netdev.

This patch introduce a interface function named lxc_netdev_isup()
to check is a netdev up or down.

And introduce a network private function named netdev_get_flag()
to get flag for netdev by netlink.

Changelog: 10/15/2015: Return failure if name==NULL to avoid later strlen fun
