[PATCH net-next 0/3] bridge: mcast: add support for temp router port

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
This set adds support for temporary router port which doesn't depend on
the incoming queries. It can be refreshed by setting multicast_router to
the same value (3). The first two patches are minor changes that prepare
the code for the third which adds this new type of router port.
In order to be able to dump its information the mdb router port format
is changed and extended similar to how mdb entries format was done
recently.
The related iproute2 changes will be posted if this is accepted.

Thanks,
 Nik

  bridge: mcast: do nothing if port's multicast_router is set to the
    same val
