--- Comment #5 from commit-h...@freebsd.org --- A commit references this bug: Author: kp Date: Sun Mar 6 08:52:04 UTC 2016 New revision: 296425 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/296425 Log: MFC r295836: ifconfig(8): can't use 'name' or 'description' when creating interface with auto numbering If one does 'ifconfig tap create name blah', it will return error because the 'name' command doesn't properly populate the request sent to ioctl(...). The 'description' command has the same bug, and is also fixed with this patch. If one does 'ifconfig tap create mtu 9000 name blah', it DOES work, but 'tap0' (or other sequence number) is echoed, instead of the expected 'blah'. (assuming the name change actually succeeded) PR: 206876 Submitted by: Marie Helene Kvello-Aune <mariehelen...@gmail.com> Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D5341 Changes: stable/10/sbin/ifconfig/ifclone.c stable/10/sbin/ifconfig/ifconfig.c stable/10/sbin/ifconfig/ifconfig.h -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
