Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/3] net: report multicast group user count
Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2026 20:02:04 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260630110207.37841-1-sigefriedhyy@gmail.com> (raw)
RTM_GETMULTICAST reports IPv4 and IPv6 multicast group membership, but
does not include the per-group user count. Userspace therefore still has
to parse /proc/net/igmp and /proc/net/igmp6 to obtain the Users column.
In particular, this prevents iproute2 from moving "ip maddr show"
entirely from procfs to rtnetlink.
Add IFA_MC_USERS to carry the user count in RTM_GETMULTICAST dumps and
RTM_NEWMULTICAST / RTM_DELMULTICAST notifications for both address
families. Update the rt-addr YNL specification and extend the rtnetlink
selftest to verify that two joins increase the reported count by two.
