    bridge: add vlan info to bridge setlink and dellink notification messages · b7853d73
    Roopa Prabhu 提交于
    vlan add/deletes are not notified to userspace today. This patch adds
    vlan info to bridge newlink/dellink notifications generated from the
    bridge driver. Notifications use the RTEXT_FILTER_BRVLAN_COMPRESSED
    flag to compress vlans into ranges whereever applicable.
    
    The size calculations does not take ranges into account for
    simplicity.  This has the potential for allocating a larger skb than
    required.
    
    There is an existing inconsistency with bridge NEWLINK and DELLINK
    change notifications. Both generate NEWLINK notifications.  Since its
    always a NEWLINK notification, this patch includes all vlans the port
    belongs to in the notification. The NEWLINK and DELLINK request
    messages however only include the vlans to be added and deleted.
