bridge: change when netlink events go to STP

2007-04-26T05:28:48Z

Need to tell STP daemon about more events, like any time a device is added even when it is down. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger

[BRIDGE]: eliminate workqueue for carrier check

2007-02-26T19:42:59Z

Having a work queue for checking carrier leads to lots of race issues. Simpler to just get the cost when data structure is created and update on change. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[BRIDGE]: netlink interface for link management

2006-06-18T04:26:14Z

Add basic netlink support to the Ethernet bridge. Including: * dump interfaces in bridges * monitor link status changes * change state of bridge port For some demo programs see: http://developer.osdl.org/shemminger/prototypes/brnl.tar.gz These are to allow building a daemon that does alternative implementations of Spanning Tree Protocol.

[BRIDGE]: handle speed detection after carrier changes

2006-01-03T21:11:01Z

Speed of a interface may not be available until carrier is detected in the case of autonegotiation. To get the correct value we need to recheck speed after carrier event. But the check needs to be done in a context that is similar to normal ethtool interface (can sleep). Also, delay check for 1ms to try avoid any carrier bounce transitions.

[BRIDGE]: set features based on enslaved devices

2005-05-29T21:15:17Z

Make features of the bridge pseudo-device be a subset of the underlying devices. Motivated by Xen and others who use bridging to do failover. Signed-off-by: Catalin BOIE Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36Z

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
