From a7a558fe426adf22b0b979705167146bf16c37fa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Date: Thu, 1 Nov 2012 16:23:10 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] rtnetlink: Use nlmsg type RTM_NEWNEIGH from dflt fdb dump Change the dflt fdb dump handler to use RTM_NEWNEIGH to be compatible with bridge dump routines. The dump reply from the network driver handlers should match the reply from bridge handler. The fact they were not in the ixgbe case was effectively a bug. This patch resolves it. Applications that were not checking the nlmsg type will continue to work. And now applications that do check the type will work as expected.
