bridge: add vlan info to bridge setlink and dellink notification messages
vlan add/deletes are not notified to userspace today. This patch adds vlan info to bridge newlink/dellink notifications generated from the bridge driver. Notifications use the RTEXT_FILTER_BRVLAN_COMPRESSED flag to compress vlans into ranges whereever applicable. The size calculations does not take ranges into account for simplicity. This has the potential for allocating a larger skb than required. There is an existing inconsistency with bridge NEWLINK and DELLINK change notifications. Both generate NEWLINK notifications. Since its always a NEWLINK notification, this patch includes all vlans the port belongs to in the notification. The NEWLINK and DELLINK request messages however only include the vlans to be added and deleted. Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
