Message-ID: <1326808024-3744-6-git-send-email-wei.liu2@citrix.com> Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2012 13:47:01 +0000 From: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@...rix.com> To: ian.campbell@...rix.com, netdev@...r.kernel.org, xen-devel@...ts.xensource.com CC: konrad.wilk@...cle.com, david.vrabel@...rix.com, paul.durrant@...rix.com, Wei Liu <wei.liu2@...rix.com> Subject: [RFC PATCH V2 5/8] netback: add module get/put operations along with vif connect/disconnect. If there is vif running and user unloads netback, it will certainly cause problems -- guest's network interface just mysteriously stops working.
