Subject: [PATCH] iproute2: hide devices starting with period by default
Some use cases create Linux networking devices which are not intended for use
by normal networking. This is an enhancement to ip command to hide network
devices starting with period (like files in normal directory). Interfaces whose
name start with "." are not shown by default, and the -a (or -all) flag must
be used to show these devices.
Example:
$ ip -brief link show
lo UNKNOWN 00:00:00:00:00:00 <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP>
eth0 UP 00:25:90:86:b3:6b <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
eth1 DOWN 00:25:90:86:b3:6a <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP>
$ ip -all -brief link show
lo UNKNOWN 00:00:00:00:00:00 <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP>
eth0 UP 00:25:90:86:b3:6b <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
eth1 DOWN 00:25:90:86:b3:6a <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP>
.eth2 DOWN 00:1b:21:a0:e7:06 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST>
