2013-02-14bridge: Add vlan filtering infrastructureVlad Yasevich
Adds an optional infrustructure component to bridge that would allow native vlan filtering in the bridge. Each bridge port (as well as the bridge device) now get a VLAN bitmap. Each bit in the bitmap is associated with a vlan id. This way if the bit corresponding to the vid is set in the bitmap that the packet with vid is allowed to enter and exit the port. Write access the bitmap is protected by RTNL and read access protected by RCU. Vlan functionality is disabled by default. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevic@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-12-07bridge: export multicast database via netlinkCong Wang
V5: fix two bugs pointed out by Thomas remove seq check for now, mark it as TODO V4: remove some useless #include some coding style fix V3: drop debugging printk's update selinux perm table as well V2: drop patch 1/2, export ifindex directly Redesign netlink attributes Improve netlink seq check Handle IPv6 addr as well This patch exports bridge multicast database via netlink message type RTM_GETMDB. Similar to fdb, but currently bridge-specific. We may need to support modify multicast database too (RTM_{ADD,DEL}MDB).

2010-02-28bridge: Add core IGMP snooping supportHerbert Xu
This patch adds the core functionality of IGMP snooping support without actually hooking it up. So this patch should be a no-op as far as the bridge's external behaviour is concerned. All the new code and data is controlled by the Kconfig option BRIDGE_IGMP_SNOOPING. A run-time toggle is also available. The multicast switching is done using an hash table that is lockless on the read-side through RCU. On the write-side the new multicast_lock is used for all operations. The hash table supports dynamic growth/rehashing. The hash table will be rehashed if any chain length exceeds a preset limit. If rehashing does not reduce the maximum chain length then snooping will be disabled. These features may be added in future (in no particular order): * IGMPv3 source support * Non-querier router detection * IPv6 Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-06-18[BRIDGE]: netlink interface for link managementStephen Hemminger
Add basic netlink support to the Ethernet bridge. Including: * dump interfaces in bridges * monitor link status changes * change state of bridge port For some demo programs see: http://developer.osdl.org/shemminger/prototypes/brnl.tar.gz These are to allow building a daemon that does alternative implementations of Spanning Tree Protocol.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
