Subject: [PATCH net-next v4 3/4] netlink: specs: rt-addr: document AF_PACKET multicast dumps
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 19:51:02 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911105103.7771-4-sigefriedhyy@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260911105103.7771-1-sigefriedhyy@gmail.com>
Add the global flag, list the attributes the AF_PACKET dump uses and
describe how ifa-family selects IPv4, IPv6 or link-layer output for
RTM_GETMULTICAST.
