Change the adjacency completion model to pull not push.
A complete adjacency has a rewirte string, an incomplete one does not. the re-write string for a peer comes either from a discovery protocol (i.e. ARP/ND) or can be directly derived from the link type (i.e. GRE tunnels). Which method it is, is interface type specific.
For each packet type sent on a link to a peer there is a corresponding adjacency. For example, if there is a peer 10.0.0.1 on Eth0 and we need to send to it IPv4 and MPLS packets, there will be two adjacencies; one for the IPv4 and one for the MPLS packets. The adjacencies are thus distinguished by the packets the carry, this is known as the adjacency's 'link-type'. It is not an L3 packet type, since the adjacency can have a link type of Ethernet (for L2 over GRE).
The discovery protocols are not aware of all the link types required - only the FIB is. the FIB will create adjacencies as and when they are required, and it is thus then desirable to 'pull' from the discovery protocol the re-write required. The alternative (that we have now) is that the discovery protocol pushes (i.e. creates) adjacencies for each link type - this creates more adjacencies than we need.
To pull, FIB now requests from the interface-type to 'complete' the adjacency. The interface can then delegate to the discovery protocol (on ethernet links) or directly build the re-write (i.e on GRE).
