Date: Wed, 16 Oct 2013 16:19:51 -0400 From: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@...atatu.com> To: vyasevic@...hat.com, Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@...il.com> CC: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@...workplumber.org>, Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@...tta.com>, "netdev@...r.kernel.org" <netdev@...r.kernel.org> Subject: Re: [RFC] bridge and friends: reduce TheLinuxWay(tm) And another little glitch, iflink specifies [IFLA_AF_SPEC] = { [AF_INET] = { [IFLA_INET_CONF] = ..., }, [AF_INET6] = { [IFLA_INET6_FLAGS] = ..., [IFLA_INET6_CONF] = ..., } But then bridge hijacks it and specifies: [IFLA_AF_SPEC] = { [IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS] [IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE] [IFLA_BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO] } Was that intended as: [IFLA_AF_SPEC] = { [AF_BRIDGE] = { [IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS] [IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE] [IFLA_BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO] } } Now granted that bridging uses PF_BRIDGE as the family and iflink uses PF_UNSPEC - but i do think this one is polluting the namespace. cheers, jamal -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
