Merge branch 'net-prepare-for-removal-of-net-dev_index_head'
Eric Dumazet says: ==================== net: prepare for removal of net->dev_index_head This series changes rtnl_fdb_dump, last iterator using net->dev_index_head[] First patch creates ndo_fdb_dump_context structure, to no longer assume specific layout for the arguments. Second patch adopts for_each_netdev_dump() in rtnl_fdb_dump(), while changing two first fields of ndo_fdb_dump_context. Third patch removes the padding, thus changing the location of ctx->fdb_idx now that all users agree on how to retrive it. After this series, the only users of net->dev_index_head are __dev_get_by_index() and dev_get_by_index_rcu(). We have to evaluate if switching them to dev_by_index xarray would be sensible. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/20241207162248.18536-1-edumazet@google.com/T/#m800755d4b16c7f335927a76d9f52ebd37f7f077c ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241209100747.2269613-1-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by:Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
