Subject: Re: [Bridge] [PATCH v7 net-next 01/12] bridge: Add vlan filtering
 infrastructure

I wrote a similar patch a few years ago:

https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/bridge/2006-September/005046.html

This patch also added the possibility to define a native vlan for each 
port and for the bridge port itself - is there any interest in this 
feature as well as the filtering?
