We need to be able to transparently forward most link-local frames via tunnels (e.g. vxlan, qinq). Currently the bridge's group_fwd_mask has a mask which restricts the forwarding of STP and LACP, but we need to be able to forward these over tunnels and control that forwarding on a per-port basis thus add a new per-port group_fwd_mask option which only disallows mac pause frames to be forwarded (they're always dropped anyway). The patch does not change the current default situation - all of the others are still restricted unless configured for forwarding. We have successfully tested this patch with LACP and STP forwarding over VxLAN and qinq tunnels. Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
