Subject: [RFC] macvlan: proper multicast support
Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2009 09:48:08 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090424094808.74d401d8@nehalam> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <49F1D5EF.3020306@trash.net>
When using macvlan's multicast packets don't get properly passed between
macvlan's which should be logically sharing the network. Any multicast
packet sent on a macvlan should show up lower device and all other macvlan's.
Likewise a multicast packet sent on lower device should be received
by all macvlan's.
The following is one way to do it; build tested only.
