Network: Add LLDP support on ethernet interfaces

The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is a vendor-neutral link layer
protocol used by network devices for advertising their identity,
capabilities, and neighbors on a local area network based on IEEE 802

This commit adds D-bus properties to control LLDP on ethernet interfaces

phosphor-dbus-interfaces

YAML descriptors of standard D-Bus interfaces. The format is described by the sdbusplus binding generation tool sdbus++.

Before defining a new D-Bus interface or modifying an existing one, please read through the documented set of the common requirements and expectations.

Building

This project can be built with meson. The typical meson workflow is: meson builddir && ninja -C builddir.

The meson files used to handle the YAML files are automatically generated and found under the gen subdirectory. When adding or removing YAML files, this must be regenerated. This can be done with the helper script found in the gen subdirectory: cd gen && ./regenerate-meson.

Configuration

Only the xyz/openbmc_project and org/freedesktop interfaces are built by default. Other interfaces can be enabled by meson options:

  • com/ibm - -Ddata_com_ibm=true
  • org/open_power - -Ddata_org_open_power=true

Example: meson builddir -Ddata_com_ibm=true && ninja -C builddir
