> This patch adds changelink rtnl operation support for geneve devices > and the code changes involve: > > - added geneve_quiesce() which quiesces the geneve device data path > for both TX and RX. This lets us perform the changelink operation > atomically w.r.t data path. Also added geneve_unquiesce() to > reverse the operation of geneve_quiesce(). > > - refactor geneve_newlink into geneve_nl2info to be used by both > geneve_newlink and geneve_changelink > > - geneve_nl2info takes a changelink boolean argument to isolate > changelink checks. > > - Allow changing only a few attributes (ttl, tos, and remote tunnel > endpoint IP address (within the same address family)): > - return -EOPNOTSUPP for attributes that cannot be changed for > now. Incremental patches can make the non-supported one > available in the future if needed. > > Signed-off-by: Girish Moodalbail <girish.moodalb...@oracle.com> Applied.
