rtnetlink: Honour NLM_F_ECHO flag in rtnl_delete_link

2022-11-01T01:10:21Z

This patch use the new helper unregister_netdevice_many_notify() for rtnl_delete_link(), so that the kernel could reply unicast when userspace set NLM_F_ECHO flag to request the new created interface info. At the same time, the parameters of rtnl_delete_link() need to be updated since we need nlmsghdr and portid info.

net: rename reference+tracking helpers

2022-06-10T04:52:55Z

Netdev reference helpers have a dev_ prefix for historic reasons. Renaming the old helpers would be too much churn but we can rename the tracking ones which are relatively recent and should be the default for new code. Rename: dev_hold_track() -> netdev_hold() dev_put_track() -> netdev_put() dev_replace_track() -> netdev_ref_replace() Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220608043955.919359-1-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski
