From 8a50f11c3b176d7a1df8cd5e29cbe965905e51ee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlad Yasevich Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2014 13:04:59 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] macvlan: Allow setting multicast filter on all macvlan types Currently, macvlan code restricts multicast and unicast filter setting only to passthru devices. As a result, if a guest using macvtap wants to receive multicast traffic, it has to set IFF_ALLMULTI or IFF_PROMISC. This patch makes it possible to use the fdb interface to add multicast addresses to the filter thus allowing a guest to receive only targeted multicast traffic. CC: John Fastabend CC: Michael S.
