Subject: [PATCH net-next v1 2/5] if_addr: add IFA_IF_NETNSID
Date:   Mon,  3 Sep 2018 06:37:14 +0200
Message-Id: <20180903043717.20136-3-christian@brauner.io>
In-Reply-To: <20180903043717.20136-1-christian@brauner.io>

Precedence: bulk

This adds a new IFA_IF_NETNSID property to be used by address families such
as PF_INET and PF_INET6.
The IFA_IF_NETNSID property can be used to send a network namespace
identifier as part of a request. If a IFA_IF_NETNSID property is identified
it will be used to retrieve the target network namespace in which the
request is to be made.

v0->v1:
- unchanged
  Note, I did not change the property name to IFA_TARGET_NSID as there
  was no clear agreement what would be preferred. My personal preference
  is to keep the IFA_IF_NETNSID name because it aligns naturally with
  the IFLA_IF_NETNSID property for RTM_*LINK requests. Jiri seems to
  prefer this name too.
  However, if there is agreement that another property name makes more
  sense I'm happy to send a v2 that changes this.
