Subject: [PATCH net-next v4 10/14] net: bridge: mcast: track active state, bridge up/down
Date: Sat, 7 Mar 2026 05:45:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260307044548.5230-11-linus.luessing@c0d3.blue> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260307044548.5230-1-linus.luessing@c0d3.blue>
This is mainly for switchdev and DSA later: To ensure that we switch
to inactive before destroying a bridge interface. A switchdev/DSA driver
might have allocated resources after we switched to an enabled multicast
active state. This gives switchdev/DSA drivers a chance to free these
resources again when we destroy the bridge (later).
Putting it into the ndo_stop / bridge interface down part instead of the
ndo_uninit / bridge destroy part though for a better semantic match. If
the bridge interface is down / stopped then it is also inactive.
No functional change for the fast/data path.
