Hi again,
I'm CC:ing the netdev list and others who've shown interest in HSR, since
they might be interested as well.
Yes, I have patches for iproute2 (to make it possible to add HSR devices)
and also a "hsrinfo" program which can be used to query an HSR interface
for statistics, and to listen for any HSR errors detected. The hsrinfo
program is based on the hsr_genl program that you mention. It requires
the libnl3 library.
The iproute patch is below (I'll send a separate message with the hsrinfo
code).
(I don't think the patch below will get accepted into iproute2 before
the HSR patch itself is accepted into the kernel - which I'm beginning to
doubt it ever will be, unfortunately.)
This patch adds support to iproute2 for adding High-Availability Seamless
Redundancy (HSR) network devices.
