    iproute: Add route showdump command (v2) · 93b79863
    Pavel Emelyanov authored
    Some time ago the save+restore commands were added to ip route (git
    id f4ff11e3, Add ip route save/restore). These two save the raw rtnl
    stream into a file and restore one (reading it from stdin).
    
    The problem is that there's no way to get the contents of the dump
    file in a human readable form. The proposal is to add a command that
    reads the rtnl stream from stdin and prints the data in a way the
    usual "ip route list" does?
    
    changes since v1:
    
    * Take the magic at the beginning of the dump file into account
    * Check for stdin (the dump is taken from) is not a tty
