Subject: [Kernel-janitors] old ioctl definitions in 2.5
heyyy :)
include/linux/if_bonding.h contains:
--- snipp
/*
* We can remove these ioctl definitions in 2.5. People should use the
* SIOC*** versions of them instead
*/
#define BOND_ENSLAVE_OLD (SIOCDEVPRIVATE)
#define BOND_RELEASE_OLD (SIOCDEVPRIVATE + 1)
#define BOND_SETHWADDR_OLD (SIOCDEVPRIVATE + 2)
#define BOND_SLAVE_INFO_QUERY_OLD (SIOCDEVPRIVATE + 11)
#define BOND_INFO_QUERY_OLD (SIOCDEVPRIVATE + 12)
#define BOND_CHANGE_ACTIVE_OLD (SIOCDEVPRIVATE + 13)
---
their use is very limited mostly in Documentation/networking/ifenslave.c
and drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c
