* Do not log events that are not critical (deadly) to the NIC router if not
configured to be verbose,
* Print almost all log lines with a prefix of the domain name they are
related to,
* And, do not use Genode::error and Genode::warning as they make it hard to
read the log with the domain name prefixes.
Fixes#2840
The router reacts as follows to a configuration change:
1) Construct new internal configuration representation (the old one stays
in place to be able to do comparisons in the following steps)
2) Iterate through all user-dependent objects (interfaces, link states, ARP
information, DHCP information) and re-check which remain valid with the
new configuration and which must be dismissed.
3) Adapt the objects that remain valid to the new configuration (re-write
references) and remove or detach the dismissed objects.
4) Do a link state DOWN at each interface and a link state UP at each
interface that remains attached to a domain.
5) Replace the old internal configuration representation with the new one
This way, the router keeps as much user dependent states as possible
while going through a configuration change. Thus, overwriting the old
configuration with an exact copy of itself is (almost) transparent to
clients of the router. Almost, because there are things the router must
do on every configuration handling, like re-scheduling the expiration
timeouts of links.
Ref #2670
The NIC router can now be configured to periodically send reports.
Configuration example (shows default values):
<config>
<report interval_sec="5" bytes="yes" config="yes">
</config>
If the 'report' tag is not available, no reports are send.
The attributes of the 'report' tag:
'bytes' : Boolean : Whether to report sent bytes and received bytes per
domain
'config' : Boolean : Whether to report ipv4 interface and gateway per
domain
'interval_sec' : 1..3600 : Interval of sending reports in seconds
