Subject: sysfs warnings, reserved names
Date: Fri, 17 Feb 2012 12:14:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <41230e67c273dde6b60cfc7110f496e2@visp.net.lb> (raw)
Hi
Just did a test:
ip link set dev eth1 name default
And got a lot of (expected) sysfs warnings:
[1068625.677143] sysctl table check failed:
/net/ipv4/conf/default/promote_secondaries Sysctl already exists
[1068625.677151] Pid: 18106, comm: ip Not tainted 3.2.4-centaur #1
and etc
Kernel 3.2.4, but i guess it doesn't matter much.
Maybe such names (as all and default) should be "reserved"?
Or it is ok like that?
