[PATCH 11/17] net: drop packet from tap device if all NICs are down

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

 



From: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@xxxxxxxxxx>

If you do e.g. "set_link virtio.0 down" and there are packets
pending on the tap interface, we currently buffer a packet
and constantly try and send it until the link is up again.

We actually just want to drop the packet if the NIC is down.
Upstream qemu already does this, we just differ because we
buffer packets from the tap interface.

[aliguori: rebased this patch on stable.  Mark, please review and Ack]
