This is actually defined as a part of the basic netlink .h files, and is
available in /usr/include/linux/veth.h. The file in iproute2 is just a
copy of that file (in include/uapi/linux/veth.h). I'm not sure why they
did that, possibly so they could build an ip binary containing the "new"
(at the time) veth support on a machine that was still lacking support
in the kernel header files?.
Anyway, I replaced this open-coded definition of VETH_INFO_* with
#include <linux/veth.h> and everything built with no problem. And I've
checked and that file is present in the kernel headers at least as far
back as kernel-3.18 (and we don't support anything older than that).
So, when you send V2 with the change I outlined in my review of Patch
2/2, could you replace this enum with the proper #include?
Thanks!
