Subject: [PATCH iproute2] bridge: make mcast_flood description consistent
Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2019 18:47:38 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190219234738.17009-1-vivien.didelot@gmail.com> (raw)

This patch simply changes the description of the mcast_flood flag
with "flood" instead of "be flooded with" to avoid confusion, and be
consistent with the description of the flooding flag, which "Controls
whether a given port will *flood* unicast traffic for which there is
no FDB entry."

 - set the group forward mask. This is the bitmask that is applied to decide whether to forward incoming frames destined to link-local addresses, ie addresses of the form 01:80:C2:00:00:0X (defaults to 0, ie the bridge does not forward any link-local frames coming on this port).
