Subject: [PATCH] bridge: make it possible for packets to traverse the bridge withour hitting netfilter
From: "Palik, Imre" <imrep@...zon.de>
The netfilter code is made with flexibility instead of performance in mind.
So when all we want is to pass packets between different interfaces, the
performance penalty of hitting netfilter code can be considerable, even when
all the firewalling is disabled for the bridge.
This change makes it possible to disable netfilter both on a per bridge basis,
or for the whole bridging subsystem. In the case interesting to us, this can
lead to more than 10% speedup compared to the case when only bridge-iptables
are disabled.
