Subject: [patch iproute2-next v3 1/2] devlink: introduce cmdline option to switch to a different namespace
Date: Thu,  3 Oct 2019 11:51:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191003095115.10098-1-jiri@resnulli.us> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191003094940.9797-1-jiri@resnulli.us>

From: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com>

Similar to ip tool, add an option to devlink to operate under certain
network namespace. Unfortunately, "-n" is already taken, so use "-N"
instead.

Example:

$ devlink -N testns1 dev show
