[PATCH v2 net-next 1/4] net: bridge: add fdb flag to extent locked port feature

Hans Schultz
2022-03-17T09:39:28Z

Add an intermediate state for clients behind a locked port to allow for
possible opening of the port for said clients. This feature corresponds
to the Mac-Auth and MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) named features. The
latter defined by Cisco.
Only the kernel can set this FDB entry flag, while userspace can read
the flag and remove it by deleting the FDB entry.
