net: bridge: multicast: add support for L2 entries
Extend the bridge multicast control and data path to configure routes for L2 (non-IP) multicast groups. The uapi struct br_mdb_entry union u is extended with another variant, interpretation, mac_addr, which does not change the structure size, and which is valid when the MDB_FLAGS_L2 flag is found set. To be compatible with the forwarding code that is already in place, which acts as an IGMP/MLD snooping bridge with querier capabilities, we need to declare that for L2 MDB entries (for which there exists no such thing as IGMP/MLD snooping/querying), that there is always a querier. Otherwise, these entries would be flooded to all bridge ports and not just to those that are members of the L2 multicast group. Needless to say, only permanent L2 multicast groups can be installed on a bridge port. Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com>
