From d37512a277dfb2cef8a578e25a3246f61399a55a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicolas Dichtel Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2015 15:11:16 +0100 Subject: rtnl: add link netns id to interface messages This patch adds a new attribute (IFLA_LINK_NETNSID) which contains the 'link' netns id when this netns is different from the netns where the interface stands (for example for x-net interfaces like ip tunnels). With this attribute, it's possible to interpret correctly all advertised information (like IFLA_LINK, etc.). Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel Signed-off-by: David S.
