Subject: [PATCH net 0/2] macsec: linkstate fixes
Date: Sun, 28 Oct 2018 09:33:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1540714256.git.sd@queasysnail.net> (raw)
This series fixes issues with handling administrative and operstate of
macsec devices.
Radu Rendec proposed another version of the first patch [0] but I'd
rather not follow the behavior of vlan devices, going with macvlan
does instead. Patrick Talbert also reported the same issue to me.
The second patch is a follow-up. The restriction on setting the device
up is a bit unreasonable, and operstate provides the information we
need in this case.
