Ah, sorry. My mistake. I only saw xin's patch and your v2 patch. So I mixed them up and thought this is xin's V2 patch. That's why I wonder we didn't start hello timer in br_stp_start... Now I see your v1 patch with: The patch is a follow-up for "bridge: start hello_timer when enabling KERNEL_STP in br_stp_start" patch from Xin Long." Sorry for mixed them up. > > >> > >> 2.

Yes, with xin's patch this timer will stoped by itself. Thanks Hangbin
