From 1d3ee88ae0d605629bf369ab0b868dae8ca62a48 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "sfeldma@cumulusnetworks.com" Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2014 22:57:56 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] bonding: add netlink attributes to slave link dev If link is IFF_SLAVE, extend link dev netlink attributes to include slave attributes with new IFLA_SLAVE nest. Add netlink notification (RTM_NEWLINK) when slave status changes from backup to active, or visa-versa. Adds new ndo_get_slave op to net_device_ops to fill skb with IFLA_SLAVE attributes. Currently only used by bonding driver, but could be used by other aggregating devices with slaves. Signed-off-by: Scott Feldman Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- Reading git-format-patch failed
