The following commands should result in all the dynamic FDB entries
being flushed, but instead all the non-local (non-permanent) entries are
flushed:
# bridge fdb add 00:aa:bb:cc:dd:ee dev dummy1 master static
# bridge fdb add 00:11:22:33:44:55 dev dummy1 master dynamic
# ip link set dev br0 type bridge fdb_flush
# bridge fdb show brport dummy1
00:00:00:00:00:01 master br0 permanent
33:33:00:00:00:01 self permanent
01:00:5e:00:00:01 self permanent
This is because br_fdb_flush() works with FDB flags and not the
corresponding enumerator values. Fix by passing the FDB flag instead.
After the fix:
# bridge fdb add 00:aa:bb:cc:dd:ee dev dummy1 master static
# bridge fdb add 00:11:22:33:44:55 dev dummy1 master dynamic
# ip link set dev br0 type bridge fdb_flush

Add the ability to specify exactly which fdbs to be flushed. They are
described by a new structure - net_bridge_fdb_flush_desc. Currently it
can match on port/bridge ifindex, vlan id and fdb flags. It is used to
describe the existing dynamic fdb flush operation. Note that this flush
operation doesn't treat permanent entries in a special way (fdb_delete vs
fdb_delete_local), it will delete them regardless if any port is using
them, so currently it can't directly replace deletes which need to handle
that case, although we can extend it later for that too.

The bridge sysfs interface stores parameters for the STP, VLAN,

Sometimes the underlying function being called supports a netlink

Let's expand the store_bridge_parm function prototype to include the
extack, and just print it to console, but at least propagate it where
applicable. Where not applicable, create a shim function in the

This patch allows us to propagate the extack argument to

shortcomings compared and duplicates functionality that is presently
available via the generic rhashtable, so this patch removes the custom
rhashtable implementation in favor of the kernel's generic rhashtable.
The hash maximum is kept and the rhashtable's size is used to do a loose
check if it's reached in which case we revert to the old behaviour and
disable further bridge multicast processing. Also now we can support any
hash maximum, doesn't need to be a power of 2.

This patch adds an option to have per-port vlan stats instead of the

vlans in the bridge since we need to allocate the stats if it is set
when vlans are being added to ports (and respectively free them
when being deleted). Also bump RTNL_MAX_TYPE as the bridge is the
largest user of options. The current stats design allows us to add
these without any changes to the fast-path, it all comes down to
the per-vlan stats pointer which, if this option is enabled, will
be allocated for each port vlan instead of using the global bridge-wide
one.

This patch adds stats support for the currently used IGMP/MLD types by the
bridge. The stats are per-port (plus one stat per-bridge) and per-direction
(RX/TX). The stats are exported via netlink via the new linkxstats API
(RTM_GETSTATS). In order to minimize the performance impact, a new option
is used to enable/disable the stats - multicast_stats_enabled, similar to
the recent vlan stats. Also in order to avoid multiple IGMP/MLD type
lookups and checks, we make use of the current "igmp" member of the bridge
private skb->cb region to record the type on Rx (both host-generated and
external packets pass by multicast_rcv()). We can do that since the igmp
member was used as a boolean and all the valid IGMP/MLD types are positive
values. The normal bridge fast-path is not affected at all, the only
affected paths are the flooding ones and since we make use of the IGMP/MLD
type, we can quickly determine if the packet should be counted using
cache-hot data (cb's igmp member). We add counters for:
* IGMP Queries
* IGMP Leaves
* IGMP v1/v2/v3 reports
* MLD Queries
* MLD Leaves
* MLD v1/v2 reports
These are invaluable when monitoring or debugging complex multicast setups
with bridges.

Add support for per-VLAN Tx/Rx statistics. Every global vlan context gets
allocated a per-cpu stats which is then set in each per-port vlan context
for quick access. The br_allowed_ingress() common function is used to
account for Rx packets and the br_handle_vlan() common function is used
to account for Tx packets. Stats accounting is performed only if the
bridge-wide vlan_stats_enabled option is set either via sysfs or netlink.
A struct hole between vlan_enabled and vlan_proto is used for the new
option so it is in the same cache line. Currently it is binary (on/off)
but it is intentionally restricted to exactly 0 and 1 since other values
will be used in the future for different purposes (e.g. per-port stats).

Jesper reported that br_netfilter always registers the hooks since
this is part of the bridge core. This harms performance for people that
don't need this.
This patch modularizes br_netfilter so it can be rmmod'ed, thus,
the hooks can be unregistered. I think the bridge netfilter should have
been a separated module since the beginning, Patrick agreed on that.
Note that this is breaking compatibility for users that expect that
bridge netfilter is going to be available after explicitly 'modprobe
bridge' or via automatic load through brctl.
However, the damage can be easily undone by modprobing br_netfilter.
The bridge core also spots a message to provide a clue to people that
didn't notice that this has been deprecated.
On top of that, the plan is that nftables will not rely on this software
layer, but integrate the connection tracking into the bridge layer to
enable stateful filtering and NAT, which is was bridge netfilter users
seem to require.
This patch still keeps the fake_dst_ops in the bridge core, since this
is required by when the bridge port is initialized. So we can safely
modprobe/rmmod br_netfilter anytime.

This is needed for an 802.1ad bridge.
(See IEEE 802.1Q-2011 8.13.5.)
Furthermore, this sets br->group_fwd_mask_required so that an 802.1ad
bridge can forward the Nearest Customer Bridge group addresses except
for br->group_addr, which should be passed to higher layer.

Quote from Adam:
"If it is believed that the use of 0.0.0.0
as the IP address is what is causing strange behaviour on other devices
then is there a good reason that a bridge rather than a router shouldn't
be the active querier? If not then using the bridge IP address and
having the querier enabled by default may be a reasonable solution
(provided that our querier obeys the election rules and shuts up if it
sees a query from a lower IP address that isn't 0.0.0.0). Just because a
device is the elected querier for IGMP doesn't appear to mean it is
required to perform any other routing functions."
And introduce a new troggle for it, as suggested by Herbert.
