Re: [PATCH net-next 5/5] ipv6: ioam: Documentation for new IOAM sysctls

From: Justin Iurman <hidden>
Date: 2020-06-25 18:01:03

quoted
Add documentation for new IOAM sysctls:
 - ioam6_id: a namespace sysctl
 - ioam6_enabled and ioam6_id: two per-interface sysctls
Are you planning add a more detailed description of the feature and
how to use it (would be nice I think :-) )
Of course, will do that ASAP!
