| Subject: staging: hv: Enable sending GARP packet after live migration |
| |
| From: Haiyang Zhang <haiyangz@microsoft.com> |
| |
| commit 7c161d0b900ea9bd9fc5ea5d3fa9916e9eb0dd88 upstream. |
| |
| The hv_netvsc gets RNDIS_STATUS_MEDIA_CONNECT event after the VM |
| is live migrated. Adding call to netif_notify_peers() for this event |
| to send GARP (Gratuitous ARP) to notify network peers. Otherwise, |
| the VM's network connection may stop after a live migration. |
| |
| This patch should also be applied to stable kernel 2.6.32 and later. |
