From: Haiyang Zhang Subject: staging: hv: Fix Kconfig dependency of hv_blkvsc LBDAF is not available nor necessary on 64BIT kernel. This patch fixed the dependency for hv_blkvsc module on 64BIT kernel. Thanks vrataj2 [vrat...@comcast.net] for reporting this problem. Signed-off-by: Haiyang Zhang

[PATCH 16/17] lldpad support for libvirt netlink message

This code receives a IEEE 802.1Qbg virtual station instance from libvirt in a SETLINK message. The parsed VSI is then handed over to VDP for processing. The VDP state machine processes the VSI while libvirt polls the result using GETLINK. Requires at least Linux kernel 2.6.35-rc1. Signed-off-by:

[PATCH 02/17] implementation of IEEE 802.1Qbg in lldpad, part 1

This patch contains the first part of an initial implementation of the IEEE 802.1Qbg standard: It contains code for the exchange of EVB TLV capabilities between a host with virtual machines and an adjacent switch. Exchange of EVB TLV may be enabled or disabled on a per port basis. Information abou

[PATCH 10/17] allow to set both supported forwarding modes

In the previous version of lldptool, only one setting of either bridge or reflective relay mode was allowed whereas both modes together should be settable. This patch corrects it. Signed-off-by: Jens Osterkamp --- lldp_evb_cmds.c | 20 +++- 1 files changed, 15 insertions(+), 5

[PATCH 05/17] remove VDPL and proper config save and restore

This patch contains multiple changes to the EVB protocol implementation: - it completely removes the use of VDPL, which is no longer in the spec - it introduces a mechanism for saving and restoring the EVB setting: If lldpad is loaded, and no EVB settings can be loaded from the c

[PATCH 17/17] do not use macv[tap/lan] interfaces as ports

At startup lldpad walks through all network interfaces in the system and creates internal data structures for them. Some interfaces as e.g. vlan and wlan are skipped in the walkthrough, some have to be treated special (e.g. bond devices). This patch adds macvtap and macvlan interfaces to the list o

[PATCH 04/17] BUGFIX: check in correct positions

[PATCH 11/17] ECP implementation

This is the implementation of the edge control protocol (ECP) as specified in IEEE 802.1Qbg. For this it extends the infrastructure defined lldpad to send and receive ECP frames with a new (yet to be defined) ethertype. Received frames are validated and analyzed before the content is handed to the

[PATCH 15/17] use connect instead of bind

[PATCH 12/17] implementation of vdp

This patch contains an initial implemention of VDP as specified in IEEE 802.1Qbg. VDP serves as the upper layer protocol (ULP) for TLVs communicated via the ECP protocol. For this it registers as a new module in lldpad. The VDP module supports a station and a bridge role. As a station, new VSI (vi
