      bonding: Prevent duplicate userspace notification · 7a7e96e0
      Vlad Yasevich 提交于
      Whenever a user changes bonding options, a NETDEV_CHANGEINFODATA
      notificatin is generated which results in a rtnelink message to
      be sent.  While runnig 'ip monitor', we can actually see 2 messages,
      one a result of the event, and the other a result of state change
      that is generated bo netdev_state_change().  However, this is not
      always the case. If bonding changes were done via sysfs or ifenslave
      (old ioctl interface), then only 1 message is seen.
      
      This patch removes duplicate messages in the case of using netlink
      to configure bonding.  It introduceds a separte function that
      triggers a netdev event and uses that function in the syfs and ioctl
      cases.
      
      This was discovered while auditing all the different envents and
      continues the effort of cleaning up duplicated netlink messages.

      rtnl: Add support for netdev event to link messages · 3d3ea5af
      Vlad Yasevich 提交于
      When netdev events happen, a rtnetlink_event() handler will send
      messages for every event in it's white list.  These messages contain
      current information about a particular device, but they do not include
      the iformation about which event just happened.  So, it is impossible
      to tell what just happend for these events.
      
      This patch adds a new extension to RTM_NEWLINK message called IFLA_EVENT
      that would have an encoding of event that triggered this
      message.  This would allow the the message consumer to easily determine
      if it needs to perform certain actions.
