linux-cp: Complete interface creation logic
Linux Control Plane interface creation logic is currently only able to
create untagged interfaces, and dot1q VLAN sub-interfaces. This change
makes it possible to create dot1ad VLAN sub-ints, and Q-in-AD as well
as Q-in-Q sub-interfaces as well.
It makes the plugin a bit more robust by catching a few common errors,
such as creating an lcp on a sub-interface without its parent having
one, and creating an lcp on a sub-interface that is not exact-match.
This change has a bunch of smaller improvemnets as well. I documented
my work in this post:
https://ipng.ch/s/articles/2021/08/12/vpp-1.html
It shows that after the change is merged, all VPP interface types now
create and operate cleanly as LCP interfaces as well.
Type: improvement
