> There are several issues in hv_netvsc driver with regards to link status > change handling: > - RNDIS_STATUS_NETWORK_CHANGE results in calling userspace helper doing > '/etc/init.d/network restart' and this is inappropriate and broken for > many reasons. > - link_watch infrastructure only sends one notification per second and > in case of e.g. paired disconnect/connect events we get only one > notification with last status. This makes it impossible to handle such > situations in userspace. > > Redo link status changes handling in the following way: > - Create a list of reconfig events in network device context. > - On a reconfig event add it to the list of events and schedule > netvsc_link_change(). > - In netvsc_link_change() ensure 2-second delay between link status > changes. > - Handle RNDIS_STATUS_NETWORK_CHANGE as a paired disconnect/connect event. > > Signed-off-by: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuzn...@redhat.com> Applied, thank you. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
