I'll see about adding the option to dladm init-linkprop then. >> We won't do update when err is EBUSY because of: >> >> do_update = (err == 0); > > I'm suggesting that we should do_update in this case, No, the cached value should always remain in sync with the driver's value. > or provide > some way of letting the user update the persistent configuration > so that the setting is picked up on the next restart. 'err' will be propagated back to userland. dladm will print the right message. When this happens automatically via dlmgmtd, there's nothing we can do. Spamming console or syslog is not the right thing either. OTOH, this is really a corner case: would happen for mtu in some cases, and with the drivers converted to use mac_prop_get(), the mtu will be set correctly. -Artem _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
