Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2016 12:46:52 +0100 From: Nikolay Aleksandrov <razor@...ckwall.org> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: roopa@...ulusnetworks.com, stephen@...workplumber.org, Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@...ulusnetworks.com> Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] bridge: mdb: add support for extended attributes From: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@...ulusnetworks.com> Hi, This small set allows to extend the per mdb entry exported attributes, before this set we had only a structure exported which couldn't be changed because we would've broken user-space, after this we extend the attribute that was used for the structure and add per-mdb entry attributes after the struct has been added (see patch 02 for more details). Note that the reason we can't simply add an attribute after MDBA_MDB_ENTRY_INFO is that current users (e.g. iproute2) walk over the attribute list directly without checking for the attribute type. Patch 01 is a simple change to reduce one indentation level in order to avoid over 80 char lines. Cheers, Nik Nikolay Aleksandrov (2): bridge: mdb: reduce the indentation level in br_mdb_fill_info bridge: mdb: add support for more attributes and export timer include/uapi/linux/if_bridge.h | 13 +++++++++++- net/bridge/br_mdb.c | 47 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------- 2 files changed, 43 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) -- 2.4.3
