This series converts event processing to a 'white list', where we explicitely permit events to generate netlink messages. This is meant to make people take a closer look and determine wheter these events should really trigger netlink messages. I am also adding a V2 of my patch to add event type to the netlink message. This version supports all events that we currently generate. I will also update my patch to iproute that will show this data through 'ip monitor'. I actually need the ability to trap NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS event (as well as possible NETDEV_RESEND_IGMP) to support hanlding of macvtap on top of bonding. I hope others will also find this info usefull. V2: Added missed events (from David Ahern) ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- 2e507e24c90631f36b1c259d05b45f20630a2ad7
