2024-09-03netdev_features: convert NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL to dev->netns_localAlexander Lobakin1-1/+1
"Interface can't change network namespaces" is rather an attribute, not a feature, and it can't be changed via Ethtool. Make it a "cold" private flag instead of a netdev_feature and free one more bit. Signed-off-by: Alexander Lobakin <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <[email protected]>

That any sort of customization is possible at all, let alone how it should be done, is currently not at all clear. Document the whats and hows in README.

2018-06-27selftests: forwarding: README: Require diagramsPetr Machata1-0/+2
ASCII art diagrams are well suited for presenting the topology that a test uses while being easy to embed directly in the test file iteslf. They make the information very easy to grasp even for simple topologies, and for more complex ones they are almost essential, as figuring out the interconnects from the script itself proves to be difficult. Therefore state the requirement for topology ASCII art in README. Signed-off-by: Petr Machata <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Ido Schimmel <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.
