Subject: [PATCH net 0/2] neighbour: fix update of proxy neighbour
Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2026 22:59:15 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1772894876.git.sd@queasysnail.net> (raw)
While re-reading some "old" patches I ran into a small change of
behavior in commit dc2a27e524ac ("neighbour: Update pneigh_entry in
pneigh_create().").
The old behavior was not consistent between ->protocol and ->flags,
and didn't offer a way to clear protocol, so maybe it's better to
change that (7-years-old [1]) behavior. But then we should change
non-proxy neighbours as well to keep neigh/pneigh consistent.
[1] df9b0e30d44c ("neighbor: Add protocol attribute")
Sabrina Dubroca (2):
neighbour: restore protocol != 0 check in pneigh update
selftests: rtnetlink: add neighbour update test
