Leon Anavi afe3b35c84 fping: Upgrade 4.4 -> 5.0
Upgrade to release 5.0:

- In non-quiet loop and count mode, a line is printed for every
  lost packet
- The returned size in bytes now always excludes the IP header, so
  if before it reported '84 bytes' e.g. when using 'fping -l', now
  it reports '64 bytes'. This is to make the reported size
  consistent with ping(8) from iputils and also with fping when
  pinging a IPv6 host (which never included the IPv6 header size).
- The number of sent pings is only counted when the pings are
  received or have timed out, ensuring that the loss ratio will be
  always correct. This makes it possible, for example, to use loop
  mode (-l) with interval statistics (-Q) and a timeout larger
  than period, without having the issue that initially some pings
  would be reported as missing
- Improved precision of measurements from 10us to 1us
- The reported size of received packets is now always correct on
  Linux even for packets > 4096 bytes
- Travis CI automated testing now also macos testing and additional
  ubuntu distributions

meta-networking
===============

This layer is intended to be a central point for networking-related
packages and configuration.  It should be useful directly on top of
oe-core and compliments meta-openembedded.  It should be primarily useful
to the following groups:

      - Anyone building a small networking device (eg. a home router /
        bridge / switch).

      - Anyone wanting to add network services to their device (eg.
        anything that might benefit from a small ftp/tftp server)

Dependencies
------------

This layer depends on:

URI: git://github.com/openembedded/openembedded-core.git
