Use IFLA_AF_SPEC nested attributes to lookup bridge mode and when doing strcmp() check for equality. These appear to be typos from the original commit, commit 64108901b737b95247b53dec8c1b8217ca8505b7 Author: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevic@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Mar 15 10:01:28 2013 -0700 bridge: Add support for setting bridge port attributes Also set flags to BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF instead of using OR operation. This allows setting the bridge mode when not being used with a master device. To allow setting both master and self devices simultaneously we will need to add a {self|master} field similar to fdb commands. For now the command sets are mutually exclusive as noted in the original commit. With this patch 'bridge link set' works now, # ./bridge/bridge link set dev veth1 cost 3 # ./bridge/bridge link show 10: veth1 state UP : <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state forwarding priority 3 cost 3 CC: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevic@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@xxxxxxxxx> --- bridge/link.c | 14 +++++++------- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/bridge/link.c b/bridge/link.c index 3188b85..38dfaea 100644 --- a/bridge/link.c +++ b/bridge/link.c @@ -198,8 +198,8 @@ int print_linkinfo(const struct sockaddr_nl *who, parse_rtattr_nested(aftb, IFLA_BRIDGE_MAX, tb[IFLA_AF_SPEC]); - if (tb[IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE]) - print_hwmode(fp, rta_getattr_u16(tb[IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE])); + if (aftb[IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE]) + print_hwmode(fp, rta_getattr_u16(aftb[IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE])); } fprintf(fp, "\n"); @@ -281,18 +281,18 @@ static int brlink_modify(int argc, char **argv) NEXT_ARG(); if (!on_off("root_block", &root_block, *argv)) exit(-1); - } else if (strcmp(*argv, "cost")) { + } else if (strcmp(*argv, "cost") == 0) { NEXT_ARG(); cost = atoi(*argv); - } else if (strcmp(*argv, "priority")) { + } else if (strcmp(*argv, "priority") == 0) { NEXT_ARG(); priority = atoi(*argv); - } else if (strcmp(*argv, "state")) { + } else if (strcmp(*argv, "state") == 0) { NEXT_ARG(); state = atoi(*argv); - } else if (strcmp(*argv, "hwmode")) { + } else if (strcmp(*argv, "hwmode") == 0) { NEXT_ARG(); - flags |= BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF; + flags = BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF; if (strcmp(*argv, "vepa") == 0) mode = BRIDGE_MODE_VEPA; else if (strcmp(*argv, "veb") == 0)
