From eee4e8dbed78e7727856bcb7797344e22c0304cc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Hemminger Date: Tue, 8 Mar 2016 12:59:35 -0800 Subject: bridge: allow zero ageing time [ Upstream commit 4c656c13b254d598e83e586b7b4d36a2043dad85 ] This fixes a regression in the bridge ageing time caused by: commit c62987bbd8a1 ("bridge: push bridge setting ageing_time down to switchdev") There are users of Linux bridge which use the feature that if ageing time is set to 0 it causes entries to never expire. See: https://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networking/bridge For a pure software bridge, it is unnecessary for the code to have arbitrary restrictions on what values are allowable.
