Any application monitoring netlink messages will already know about the configuration change if it came down via netlink. There would not be a need for an extra message. My question was: Is there a need for 2 netlink messages to indicate that a bonding configuration change was needed when the config came over netlink. I did not see the need for 2 netlink messages in this case and was asking for clarification from you. > > > > >> > >> return ret; > >> } > >> diff --git a/include/linux/netdevice.h b/include/linux/netdevice.h > >> index 967ddcc..44bc4bd 100644 > >> --- a/include/linux/netdevice.h > >> +++ b/include/linux/netdevice.h > >> @@ -2017,6 +2017,7 @@ struct pcpu_sw_netstats { > >> #define NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER 0x0015 > >> #define NETDEV_RESEND_IGMP 0x0016 > >> #define NETDEV_PRECHANGEMTU 0x0017 /* notify before mtu change happened */ > >> +#define NETDEV_CHANGEINFODATA 0x0018 > >> > >> int register_netdevice_notifier(struct notifier_block *nb); > >> int unregister_netdevice_notifier(struct notifier_block *nb); > >> -- > >> 1.9.3 > >> > >> -- > >> To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in > >> the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > >> More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

One is just monitoring netlink events ("ip mon"), the second is setting up bond via netlink. Now, the second sends a message to kernel, that is unicast to kernel. The first application does not see that message. Therefore there is need to generate the event message in kernel and send it back to userspace via multicast.

Plus there is no limitation in adding event number. Plus since this it not part of any api, it can be easily changed.
