  • 11dc1f36a   [BRIDGE]: netlink interface for link management ... Browse Code »

    Add basic netlink support to the Ethernet bridge. Including:
    * dump interfaces in bridges
    * monitor link status changes
    * change state of bridge port

    For some demo programs see:
    http://developer.osdl.org/shemminger/prototypes/brnl.tar.gz

    These are to allow building a daemon that does alternative
    implementations of Spanning Tree Protocol.

  • 387e2b043   [BRIDGE]: need to ref count the LLC sap ... Browse Code »

    Bridge will OOPS on removal if other application has the SAP open.
    The bridge SAP might be shared with other usages, so need
    to do reference counting on module removal rather than explicit
    close/delete.

    Since packet might arrive after or during removal, need to clear
    the receive function handle, so LLC only hands it to user (if any).

  • cf0f02d04   [BRIDGE]: use llc for receiving STP packets ... Browse Code »

    Use LLC for the receive path of Spanning Tree Protocol packets.
    This allows link local multicast packets to be received by
    other protocols (if they care), and uses the existing LLC
    code to get STP packets back into bridge code.

    The bridge multicast address is also checked, so bridges using
    other link local multicast addresses are ignored. This allows
    for use of different multicast addresses to define separate STP
    domains.

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
