Subject: [net-next v3] bridge: trigger RTM_NEWLINK when interface is modified by bridge ioctl
Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2017 12:05:25 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170921100525.20395-1-vincent@bernat.im> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170920162140.369bb198@xeon-e3>
Currently, there is a difference in netlink events received when an
interface is modified through bridge ioctl() or through netlink. This
patch generates additional events when an interface is added to or
removed from a bridge via ioctl().
When adding then removing an interface from a bridge with netlink, we
get:
5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master bridge0 state UNKNOWN group default
link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

Without this patch, the last netlink notification is not sent.
