2018-08-14 | device: gracefully handle device names exceeding IFNAMESIZ | Hans Dedecker | |
Instead of truncating the device name when it exceeds IFNAMSIZ length; let device_set_ifname return an error code and do not add the device to the device list. This avoids possible issues with device names becoming identical due the truncation and as a result unexpected behavior. Further let the different device types gracefully handle the error code returned by device_init Signed-off-by: Hans Dedecker <dedeckeh@gmail.com> | |||
2017-02-11 | device: add veth support | Matthias Schiffer | |
The veth config code mostly handles the primary interface of a veth pair, the secondary interface is not explicitly referenced and will be found as an unrelated interface after the pair has been created. This doesn't only allow us to keep the veth code simple (and similar to existing device handlers), but will also avoid complicating handling unnecessarily in case the secondary interface is moved into another network namespace.
