Subject: Re: [patch net-next 0/6] vlan: introduce per-device vlan id list
Date: Thu, 08 Dec 2011 19:53:29 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]

> Many drivers store vlan ids in their private structures.
> They are maintaining the private lists in vlan_add_vid and vlan_kill_vid.

> This patchset creates an infrastructure of storing vlan ids in one place,
> vlan core. Another benefit of this is that it allows to keep track of vlan
> ids needed. For example if eth0 has vlan id 10 on it, then it enters bonding,
> bonding gets added 10 as well, then eth0 leaves bonding. Final step would
> remove vlan id 10 from eth1 vlan filter resulting in potentially unfunction
> vlan device. This patchset fixes this.

> net: make vlan ndo_vlan_rx_[add/kill]_vid return error value
> net: introduce vlan_vid_[add/del] and use them instead of direct
> [add/kill]_vid ndo calls
> vlan: introduce vid list with reference counting
> vlan: introduce functions to do mass addition/deletion of vids by

> team: use vlan_vids_[addr/del]_by_dev
All applied.
