Subject: [PATCH net-next v4 06/14] net: bridge: mcast: track active state, IPv6 address availability
Date: Sat,  7 Mar 2026 05:45:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260307044548.5230-7-linus.luessing@c0d3.blue> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260307044548.5230-1-linus.luessing@c0d3.blue>

If we are the only potential MLD querier but don't have an IPv6
link-local address configured on our bridge interface then we can't
create a valid MLD query and in turn can't reliably receive MLD reports
and can't build a complete MDB. Hence disable the new multicast active
state variable then. Or reenable it if an IPv6 link-local address
became available.

No functional change for the fast/data path yet.
