This small series adds a netdev_atomic notifier chain so that drivers can
callback to the core network stack requesting to reprogram the offloads
without depending on the geneve or vxlan modules.
* Result:
$ cd drivers/net/ethernet/
$ find . -name '*.ko' | xargs modinfo | egrep '^depends:.*(vxlan|geneve)' |
wc -l
0
Hannes Frederic Sowa (3):
netdev: add atomic netdev callback chain
vxlan: use netdev_atomic notifier chain to remove dependency from
drivers
geneve: use netdev_atomic notifier chain to remove dependency from
drivers
