iproute2: add support for IFLA_NET_NS_PID in ip link
Hi Stephen, I resend you this patch once more. This time I updated the documentation too (may be that was the reason why you didn't take it before?). Please tell me if there are other things missing in this patch It applies on iproute2 git tree. Regards, Benjamin Description: ------------ This patch adds support for the IFLA_NET_NS_PID type. It is used to move network devices between network namespaces. The syntax is: ip link set DEVICE netns PID PID is the pid of a process in the target network namespace.
