-Subject: [PATCH] net: bridge: switchdev: Include local flag in FDB
- notifications
-
-Some switchdev drivers, notably DSA, ignore all dynamically learned
-address notifications (!added_by_user) as these are autonomously added
-by the switch. Previously, such a notification was indistinguishable
-from a local address notification. Include a local bit in the
-notification so that the two classes can be discriminated.
-
-This allows DSA-like devices to add local addresses to the hardware
-FDB (with the CPU as the destination), thereby avoiding flows towards
-the CPU being flooded by the switch as unknown unicast.
-
