Is "feature-multicast-control" supported by xen-netfront?

Is "feature-multicast-control" supported by xen-netfront?

[Dongli Zhang]

Hi,

There was a patch
(http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2015-09/msg00285.html) in
2015 to support multicast packet filter in Xen netback. I found that this
feature "feature-multicast-control" is currently not supported by Xen netfront
in mainline linux. 

Is there as patch for xen-netfront to support feature-multicast-control?
Otherwise, I might need to make it myself.

Thank you very much!

Best,

No, I haven't written one yet. Only done the Windows frontend so far.
