Re: [PATCH 0/2] Interface groups, round two

Hello,

Here is the new version of ifgroup patches.

The interface group value is u_int32_t in net_device which should be enough.
Previously it was an int.

Usage:
   ip link set eth0 group 4
but currently it cannot be unset, only changed to another value.

The only reason why it can't be set to zero again seems to
be this part from the iproute patch:

+			if (rtnl_ifgroup_a2n(&group, *argv) || group == 0)

Why don't you allow a value of zero?
