From 149ddd83a92b02c658d6c61f3276eb6500d585e8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: stephen hemminger Date: Tue, 26 Jun 2012 05:48:45 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] bridge: Assign rtnl_link_ops to bridge devices created via ioctl (v2) This ensures that bridges created with brctl(8) or ioctl(2) directly also carry IFLA_LINKINFO when dumped over netlink. This also allows to create a bridge with ioctl(2) and delete it with RTM_DELLINK. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.
