Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] net: bridge: add per-port unknown multicast flood control
Date: Tue, 30 Aug 2016 15:08:57 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1472562539-23247-1-git-send-email-nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com> (raw)

Hi,
The first patch prepares the forwarding path by having the exact packet
type passed down so we can later filter based on it and the per-port
unknown mcast flood flag introduced in the second patch. It is similar to
how the per-port unknown unicast flood flag works.
Nice side-effects of patch 01 are the slight reduction of tests in the
fast-path and a few minor checkpatch fixes.

Thanks,
 Nik
