From 3d3ea5af5c0b382bc9d9aed378fd814fb5d4a011 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlad Yasevich Date: Sat, 27 May 2017 10:14:34 -0400 Subject: rtnl: Add support for netdev event to link messages 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. Signed-off-by: Vladislav Yasevich Acked-by: David Ahern Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
