| Subject: rtnetlink: Add missing manual netlink notification in dev_change_net_namespaces |
| |
| From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> |
| |
| commit d2237d35748e7f448a9c2d9dc6a85ef637466e24 upstream. |
| |
| Renato Westphal noticed that since commit a2835763e130c343ace5320c20d33c281e7097b7 |
| "rtnetlink: handle rtnl_link netlink notifications manually" was merged |
| we no longer send a netlink message when a networking device is moved |
| from one network namespace to another. |
| |
| Fix this by adding the missing manual notification in dev_change_net_namespaces. |
| |
| Since all network devices that are processed by dev_change_net_namspaces are |
| in the initialized state the complicated tests that guard the manual |
| rtmsg_ifinfo calls in rollback_registered and register_netdevice are |
| unnecessary and we can just perform a plain notification. |
