virtio-net: synchronize operstate with admin state on up/down
This patch synchronizes operstate with admin state per RFC2863. This is done by trying to toggle the carrier upon open/close and synchronize with the config change work. This allows to propagate status correctly to stacked devices like: ip link add link enp0s3 macvlan0 type macvlan ip link set link enp0s3 down ip link show Before this patch: 3: enp0s3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 00:00:05:00:00:09 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff ...... 5: macvlan0@enp0s3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP,M-DOWN> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether b2:a9:c5:04:da:53 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff After this patch: 3: enp0s3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 00:00:05:00:00:09 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff ... 5: macvlan0@enp0s3: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,M-DOWN> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state LOWERLAYERDOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether b2:a9:c5:04:da:53 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Cc: Venkat Venkatsubra <venkat.x.venkatsubra@oracle.com> Cc: Gia-Khanh Nguyen <gia-khanh.nguyen@oracle.com> Acked-by: Michael S.
