To generate the events the device must be assigned a role of either a primary or a secondary Bridge Port. For more information, see "z/VM Connectivity, SC24-6174".
When run on an OSA or HiperSockets Bridge Capable Port hardware, and the state of some configured Bridge Port device on the channel changes, a udev event with ACTION=CHANGE is emitted on behalf of the corresponding ccwgroup device. The event has the following attributes:
BRIDGEPORT=statechange indicates that the Bridge Port device changed its state.
ROLE={primary|secondary|none} the role assigned to the port.
STATE={active|standby|inactive} the newly assumed state of the port.
When run on HiperSockets Bridge Capable Port hardware with host address notifications enabled, a udev event with ACTION=CHANGE is emitted. It is emitted on behalf of the corresponding ccwgroup device when a host or a VLAN is registered or unregistered on the network served by the device. The event has the following attributes:
BRIDGEDHOST={reset|register|deregister|abort} host address notifications are started afresh, a new host or VLAN is registered or deregistered on the Bridge Port HiperSockets channel, or address notifications are aborted.
VLAN=numeric-vlan-id VLAN ID on which the event occurred. Not included if no VLAN is involved in the event.
MAC=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx MAC address of the host that is being registered or deregistered from the HiperSockets channel. Not reported if the event reports the creation or destruction of a VLAN.
NTOK_BUSID=x.y.zzzz device bus ID (CSSID, SSID and device number).
NTOK_IID=xx device IID.
NTOK_CHPID=xx device CHPID.
NTOK_CHID=xxxx device channel ID.
Note that the NTOK_* attributes refer to devices other than the one
connected to the system on which the OS is running.
