Finally got rid of all the qdisc/class/cls code duplication in
the tc module API. The API takes care of allocation/freeing the
tc object specific data.
I hope I got it right this time.
Manually editing etc/libnl/classid before adding tc objects is a pain.
This patch adds code to attempt auto generating a unique tc id which
will then be assigned to the provided name and added to the classid
file.
This will make the following commands work with prior definitions of
the names "top" and "test"
sudo sbin/nl-qdisc-add --dev eth0 --parent root --id top htb
sudo sbin/nl-class-add --dev eth0 --parent top --id test htb --rate 100mbit
It will generate the following ids automatically:
4001: top
4001:1 test
