Jiri Pirko says: ==================== net: allow per-net notifier to follow netdev into namespace Currently we have per-net notifier, which allows to get only notifications relevant to particular network namespace. That is enough for drivers that have netdevs local in a particular namespace (cannot move elsewhere). However if netdev can change namespace, per-net notifier cannot be used. Introduce dev_net variant that is basically per-net notifier with an extension that re-registers the per-net notifier upon netdev namespace change. Basically the per-net notifier follows the netdev into namespace. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
