[PATCH for-next V6 02/10] net: Add info for NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER event

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

 



Some consumers of NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER event would like to know which
upper device was linked/unlinked and what operation was carried.

Add information in the notifier info block for that purpose.
