I've noticed for a while that
# brctl showstp
output is showing 0 for port_no and port_id
It seems that somewhere in 2.6 sysfs land the following items got
printed in hexadecimal, and brctl code was parsing for decimal only
doug:/sys/class/net/eth0/brport# cat port_id
0x8001
doug:/sys/class/net/eth0/brport# cat port_no
0x1
The following patch to bridge-utils (git and 1.2 release) lets it do the
right thing:
diff -ur bridge-utils-1.2/libbridge/libbridge_devif.c
bridge-utils/libbridge/lib
