The interface is not down, but is removed using the command: 'vconfig rem eth0.100' so it is non-existent. > TG> Is there a reason the cache is not invalidated before calling > TG> _cache_load()? > > Yes.. the old entries are needed to > > a) implement 64 bit counters (esp on 32 bit systems) > b) notice when interfaces appear and disappear > Thanks. > If you look at the code, it wouldn't be too to add code to remove interfaces > that go down, bit it should be configurable and default to off.

But the entry remains in the cache even after you remove the vlan interface. How should this situation be handled? I see a known_missing flag indicating the interface is not to be found anymore. That flag seems to be set after I remove the interface using 'vconfig rem.' It is not set when the vlan interface is down.
