David Ahern says: ==================== rtnetlink: Cleanup user notifications for netdev events Vlad's recent patch to add the event type to rtnetlink notifications points out a number of redundant or unnecessary notifications sent to userspace for events that are essentially internal to the kernel. Trim the list to put a dent in the notification storm. v2 - rebased to top of net-next with IFLA_EVENT patch reverted - dropped removal NETDEV_CHANGEINFODATA since it is intentionally only to send a message to userspace - dropped NOTIFY_PEERS since Vlad's says it is needed for macvlans - add patches to remove NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER and NETDEV_CHANGE_TX_QUEUE_LEN from the event list ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
