Hi, this patch series contains two patches. At first we remove the multiple lowpan interface support. I don't see any use case for that, if somebody has an use case for it. Please report your use case. Currently it's broken to update the wpan mac address while having a lowpan interface on the top. The first patch will introduce some easy mechanism to access the lowpan interface inside the lower mac802154 layer. When the mac802154 changes the mac address then it will updated also on the lowpan interface, if the wpan interface belongs to a lowpan interface. Another idea would be maybe to react on the lowpan_device_event, when a wpan interface updates his address, but this doesn't work because the lowpan interface need to be down to update the mac setting, otherwise the SLAAC address will not be updated. - Alex changes since v2: - fix handling in patch 2/2 that we will check at first that the lowpan interface is down. Otherwise we had return -EBUSY and wpan interface address was updated and not the lowpan interface address. - change subject at patch 2/2 from "fix wpan mac setting while lowpan" to "fix wpan mac setting while lowpan is there". I don't use "up", because it was broken before, doesn't matter if the interface was up or down. - add several tested-by and reviewed-by tags Alexander Aring (2): ieee802154: 6lowpan: remove multiple lowpan support mac802154: fix wpan mac setting while lowpan is there include/net/cfg802154.h | 3 ++ net/ieee802154/6lowpan/6lowpan_i.h | 6 ---- net/ieee802154/6lowpan/core.c | 67 +++++++++++--------------------------- net/ieee802154/6lowpan/rx.c | 38 +++++---------------- net/mac802154/iface.c | 15 +++++++++ 5 files changed, 45 insertions(+), 84 deletions(-) -- 2.5.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wpan" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
