Hi,
I need to create an user interface (QT based MMI) to manage bridge but I
can't found c/c++ function in user space to develop this application.
The functions are: br_add_bridge, br_del_bridge etc. in libbridge.a library are
accessible from user space linking the library ?
These functions are in
user space or kernel space ?
Developing an application (bridgeConf.so)
during loading phase of the application the undefined reference error
related to the previus functions is generated.
While if I try to use thase functions in kernel space a compile time error is
generated, the function are not declared.
Are the br_*_bridge functions the correct way to manage bridge through code in
user space ?
For our needs something in kernel space is useful too. What you can suggest ?
Thanks
Best Regards
Luca

You need to build your own interface. Look at bridge utils source and RSTP daemon source. They use combinations of ioctl()'s, sysfs and netlink. Eventually, I hope to make all of bridge control under netlink but for now you need ioctl's and sysfs. --
