Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] ipx: move Novell IPX protocol support into staging
Date: Sun, 12 Nov 2017 11:22:26 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171112192227.19997-2-sthemmin@microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171112192227.19997-1-sthemmin@microsoft.com>
The Netware IPX protocol is very old and no one should still be using
it. It is time to move it into staging for a while and eventually
decommision it.
Note: net/ipx.h has to be kept around because bonding is still
using it to decode IPX header for LAG.
