Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 0/2] enic: add support to send port-profile's client name to firmware
Date: Fri, 3 Oct 2014 04:11:21 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1412289683-8278-1-git-send-email-_govind@gmx.com> (raw)
Firmware has support for sending client name of the port profile to the switch
it's connected to.
This series adds client name to port profile which is sent to hardware while
associating a port profile to VF.
Since port profile are defined in switch, this patch makes it easier to check
what VM is using a port profile.
v2:
Split single patch to multiple patches. First patch adds client name to netlink
facility. Second patch adds driver support.

if_link: add client name to port profile
enic: add vmname port-profile handler
