Subject: [patch net-next v2 0/3] export device physical port id to userspace
Date: Sat, 20 Jul 2013 19:53:51 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1374342834-10814-1-git-send-email-jiri@resnulli.us> (raw)

This patchset is based on patch by Narendra_K@Dell.com
Once device which can change phys port id during its lifetime adopts this,
NETDEV_CHANGEPHYSPORTID event will be added and driver will call
call_netdevice_notifiers(NETDEV_NETDEV_CHANGEPHYSPORTID, dev) to propagate
the change to userspace.

v1->v2: as suggested by Ben, handle -EOPNOTSUPP in rtnl code (wrapped up ndo call)

Jiri Pirko (3):
  net: add ndo to get id of physical port of the device
  rtnl: export physical port id via RT netlink
  net: export physical port id via sysfs
