similar to: [Bridge] brctl returns 0 on error

With recent 2.6 kernels, the command brctl delbr br0 hangs during shutdown, and the kernel prints this message again and again: unregister_netdevice: waiting for br0 to become free. Usage count = 1 I was able to reproduce this problem with several kernels between (and including) 2.6.9-rc1 and 2.6.11-rc2-bk9. I haven't tried later versions than 2.6.11-rc2-bk9 yet. 2.6.8.1-bk2 still works

Hi there, I'm currently experiencing a minor problem using the bridge module under kernel 2.4.27 part of the Devil Linux distribution (http://www.devil-linux.org). The problem I am having is that when the bridge is unloaded during a reboot I receive the following errors in /var/log/messages: Nov 14 13:22:13 src@Devil kernel: unregister_netdevice: waiting for br0 to become free. Usage count =

When i want to delete my test bridge, using: ifconfig eth0 down ifconfig eth1 down ifconfig br0 down brctl delif br0 eth0 brctl delif br0 eth1 brctl delbr br0 i get this error message from the kernel on the console: unregister_netdevice: waiting for br0 to become free. Usage count =3D 2 The brctl user-level command is blocked. Could you explain me what could likely be the cause of this error?

Hi, I've been encountering some problems with bridging under linux 2.6.12-9 (ubuntu Breezy Badger). Apologies for the newbie-ish email: problem is likely a config issues, but docs appear to be sparse and I can't find much reference to the problem/solution on the 'net; trial and error really isn't working... Am attempting to bridge an offsite network to the central

So Working on CEntOS 5 I am trying to sett up Xen with 2 bridges, one that connects dom0 and most of the domU to the physical card and the out to the network. Got that figured out no problem, now i want to have a second bridge that runs a local network for all the doms that doesn''t connect to the network. With code I have found used in multiple places I can easily get 2 bridges, and

Hello, Presently I am running CentOS release 5.5 (Final). I am looking to setup bridging as I would like to setup some KVM virtual hosts on my system as a test lab. I am following the the instruction at this site > http://tldp.org/HOWTO/BRIDGE-STP-HOWTO/index.html but I cannot figure out where I am going wrong and would be thankful if someone could point me in the right direction. Here

Last problem I had involved changing one character in my configuration scripts. Really easy once someone showed me what was wrong. Well I think this issue is just the same. The moment I used apt to install the Xen kernal and tools I lost internet connectivity. I have been managing because I can restore connectivity be deleting the bridge mpower@dodtsair:~$ sudo ifdown eth0

hi: my box use eth0 connect my pc. but I type command "./brctl showmacs br0", no mac addr display and the" brctl showmacs program" not exit,always exec # ./brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces br0 8000.000123456789 no eth0 hdlc0 # ./brctl showmacs br0

I'm trying to bridge a wired network and a wireless network, but I'm having some trouble. No traffic seems to be passing through the bridge. When I issue a "showmacs" command to brctl, I am able to see MAC addresses from both networks. I am also able to ping both networks from the bridge machine. When I issue a "showstp" command to brctl, the wireless access

Hello, I how an embedded processor that needs to act as a bridge between a wireless and wired network. I have managed to bring up the bridge fine. I can also bring up the bridge with a static ip address. However I can not figure out how to bring up the bridge with a dynamic ip address. Is it possible to for a bridge to get a dynamically assigned ip address? Oliver

Hi All, I am using Linux 2.6.15 kernel. I want to create 4094 bridge interface but I am able to see only 32 bridge interfaces with the help of "brctl show". I am able see other interfaces into /proc/net/dev but brctl is not showing more then 32. It is also not allowing any operations (add/del) over those interfaces. Is it correct behaviour or I have do some changes in some settings.?

I noticed that when I type brctl - it does insmod when the bridge module is not loaded. Where can I find the code (in the brctl or libbridge code) which does that? Thanks, Abhijit

I've noticed for a while that # brctl showstp output is showing 0 for port_no and port_id It seems that somewhere in 2.6 sysfs land the following items got printed in hexadecimal, and brctl code was parsing for decimal only doug:/sys/class/net/eth0/brport# cat port_id 0x8001 doug:/sys/class/net/eth0/brport# cat port_no 0x1 The following patch to bridge-utils (git and 1.2 release) lets

Package: xen-utils-common Severity: normal When setting (network-script network-bridge) in the xen config, restarting xen will result in error messages like: /etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge: line 219: brctl: command not found /etc/xen/scripts/network-bridge is part of xen-utils-common which doesnt depend or recommend the bridge-utils package which contains brctl.
