bridge: memorize and export selected IGMP/MLD querier port

2014-06-11T06:50:47Z

Adding bridge support to the batman-adv multicast optimization requires batman-adv knowing about the existence of bridged-in IGMP/MLD queriers to be able to reliably serve any multicast listener behind this same bridge. Signed-off-by: Linus Lüssing Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

bridge: add export of multicast database adjacent to net_dev

2014-06-11T06:50:47Z

With this new, exported function br_multicast_list_adjacent(net_dev) a list of IPv4/6 addresses is returned. This list contains all multicast addresses sensed by the bridge multicast snooping feature on all bridge ports of the bridge interface of net_dev, excluding addresses from the specified net_device itself. Adding bridge support to the batman-adv multicast optimization requires batman-adv knowing about the existence of bridged-in multicast listeners to be able to reliably serve them with multicast packets.

netfilter: ebtables: make broute table work again

2011-01-11T22:55:51Z

broute table init hook sets up the "br_should_route_hook" pointer, which then gets called from br_input. commit a386f99025f13b32502fe5dedf223c20d7283826 (bridge: add proper RCU annotation to should_route_hook) introduced a typedef, and then changed this to: br_should_route_hook_t *rhook; [..] rhook = rcu_dereference(br_should_route_hook); if (*rhook(skb)) problem is that "br_should_route_hook" contains the address of the function, so calling *rhook() results in kernel panic.

bridge: add proper RCU annotation to should_route_hook

2010-11-15T19:13:16Z

Add br_should_route_hook_t typedef, this is the only way we can get a clean RCU implementation for function pointer. Move route_hook to location where it is used. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: replace hooks in __netif_receive_skb V5

2010-06-02T14:11:15Z

What this patch does is it removes two receive frame hooks (for bridge and for macvlan) from __netif_receive_skb. These are replaced them with a single hook for both. It only supports one hook per device because it makes no sense to do bridging and macvlan on the same device. Then a network driver (of virtual netdev like macvlan or bridge) can register an rx_handler for needed net device. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.

bridge: forwarding table information for >256 devices

2008-05-02T23:53:33Z

The forwarding table binary interface (my bad choice), only exposes the port number of the first 8 bits. The bridge code was limited to 256 ports at the time, but now the kernel supports up 1024 ports, so the upper bits are lost when doing: brctl showmacs The fix is to squeeze the extra bits into small hole left in data structure, to maintain binary compatiablity.

[NETFILTER]: Replace sk_buff ** with sk_buff *

2007-10-15T19:26:29Z

With all the users of the double pointers removed, this patch mops up by finally replacing all occurances of sk_buff ** in the netfilter API by sk_buff *. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
