I would really like this patch to be merged in. Linux's bridging code treats multicasts as broadcasts, so this very simple code enables linux to run stuff like vrrpd inside xen, allowing various kinds of failover scenarios not possible without this patch. oelewapperke@talin:~/src/xen/xen-3.0.2/linux-2.6.16-xen/drivers/xen/netfront$ diff netfront.c netfront-new.c 1098a1099,1106 > /** Set the multicast list > * since this interface is going to be connected by the linux bridging > * code, which broadcasts any and all multicasts are broadcasted by the > * linux bridge, this does not actually the need to do anything > */ > static void network_set_multicast_list(struct net_device *dev) { > } > 1167a1176 > netdev->set_multicast_list = network_set_multicast_list; _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
