This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled net: allow macvlans to move to net namespace to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.13.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11.11. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.13.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 27d55602162d74311601a66d2811ad746b49a808 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Francesco Ruggeri <fruggeri@arista.com> Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2014 10:40:44 -0700 Subject: net: allow macvlans to move to net namespace [ Upstream commit 0d0162e7a33d3710b9604e7c68c0f31f5c457428 ] I cannot move a macvlan interface created on top of a bonding interface to a different namespace: % ip netns add dummy0 % ip link add link bond0 mac0 type macvlan % ip link set mac0 netns dummy0 RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument % The problem seems to be that commit f9399814927a ("bonding: Don't allow bond devices to change network namespaces.") sets NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL on bonding interfaces, and commit 797f87f83b60 ("macvlan: fix netdev feature propagation from lower device") causes macvlan interfaces to inherit its features from the lower device. NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL should not be inherited from the lower device by a macvlan. Patch tested on 3.16.
