Currently, bnx2fc has a hba structure that can work with only a single vlan
interface. When there is a change in vlan id, it does not have the capability
to switch to different vlan interface. To solve this problem, a new structure
called 'interface' has been introduced, and each hba can now have multiple
interfaces, one per vlan id.
Most of the patch is a moving the interface specific fields from hba to the
interface structure, and appropriately modifying the dereferences. A list of
interfaces (if_list) is maintained along with adapter list. During a create
call, the interface structure is allocated and added to if_list and deleted&
freed on a destroy call. Link events are propogated to all interfaces
belonging to the hba.
Best I can tell, the upstream prerequisites are satisfied, but I still
can't apply this because of a conflicting upstream patch:
commit 415199f2bd977fa4065d4e836b4b7543f7993bc3

cnic: Add VLAN ID as a parameter during netevent upcall
Which actually introduces an explicit failure return for vlans. Could
you respin from 2 on to sort this out?
Sure, will try and resolve the conflicts and re-submit the patches.
Thanks,
Bhanu.
Thanks,
