It does seem a little broad notification type. I've checked over all the currently defined NETDEV notifiers, and it seems that NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS may be a better option to use when bridge has a potential topology change. Currently it is only used in ipv4/devinet.c: where it is used to issue a gratuitous ARP. -- Adam Majer [email protected] _______________________________________________ Bridge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bridge
