Andy Roulin says: ==================== net: protodown support for macvlan and vxlan This patch series adds dev_change_proto_down_generic, a generic implementation of ndo_change_proto_down, which sets the netdev carrier state according to the new proto_down value. This handler adds the ability to set protodown on macvlan and vxlan interfaces in a generic way for use by control protocols like VRRPD. Patch (1) introduces the handler in net/code/dev.c. Patch (2) and (3) add support for change_proto_down in macvlan and vxlan drivers, respectively, using the new function. ==================== 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.
