Subject: [PATCH iproute2 0/3] Improve tunnel local/remote endpoint params and gre link attribute handling

In this series following problems addressed:

  1) Size of IFLA_GRE_LINK attribute is 32 bits long in , not 8 bit.

  2) Use get_addr() instead of get_prefix() to parse local/remote
     tunnel endpoints as IPADDR, not PREFIX as per ip-link(8).

  3) No need to check if local/remote endpoints are zero (e.g. INADDR_ANY):
     it is fully legal value, accepted by the kernel.

See individual patch description message for details.

Thanks,
Serhii
