Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 0/2] tipc: add support for link state subscriptions

From: Erik Hugne <erik.hugne@...csson.com>

Low level topology information like TIPC link up/down is useful for
applications like teamd to make smarter failover decisions in a
HA cluster environment. Fetching logical link names through an ioctl
may hurt the eyes of some. Suggestions for a more elegant way of doing
this would be appreciated in that case. :)

v2: 
   -Properly based on net-next
   -Off-list comments from Billie Alsup:
    -Add a string length parameter to tipc_node_get_linkname
    -Use TIPC_MAX_LINK_NAME definition instead of hardcoded
     value in tipc_sioc_ln_req linkname

Erik Hugne (2):
  tipc: add support for link state subscriptions
  tipc: add ioctl to fetch link names
