[PATCH 02/17] backports: add netdev_notify_peers()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



netif_notify_peers() was renamed to netdev_notify_peers() in kernel
3.7. Replace the calls to netdev_notify_peers() with
netif_notify_peers().

Some older kernel versions do not even have netif_notify_peers(), there
we just remove the call, currently it is only used in the 6lowpan code
and I assume it will still work, but not so good.
