Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/5] Per-net and on-demand link indices (and related)
Date: Mon, 06 Aug 2012 14:30:07 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <501F9CAF.3030605@parallels.com> (raw)

Hi!

This set tries to summarize the recent discussion of making ifindices friendly
to checkpoint-restore and consists of:

1. Prepare hash function to non-unique ifindices
2. Allow for specifying the desired ifindex on net link creation
3. Make ifindex generation per-net
4. Simplify loopback device ifindex access

Thanks,
Pavel
