Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

[ Upstream commit d2e381c4 ] Cited commit started returning errors when notification info is not filled by the bridge driver, resulting in the following regression: # ip link add name br1 type bridge vlan_filtering 1 # bridge vlan add dev br1 vid 555 self pvid untagged RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument As long as the bridge driver does not fill notification info for the bridge device itself, an empty notification should not be considered as an error. This is explained in commit 59ccaaaa ("bridge: dont send notification when skb->len == 0 in rtnl_bridge_notify"). Fix by removing the error and add a comment to avoid future bugs. Fixes: a8db57c1 ("rtnetlink: Fix missing error code in rtnl_bridge_notify()") Signed-off-by:Ido Schimmel <idosch@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by:
