Message-Id: <1271007435-20035-1-git-send-email-kaber@trash.net> Date: Sun, 11 Apr 2010 19:37:06 +0200 From: kaber@...sh.net To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/9] net: support multiple independant multicast routing instances The following patches add support for multiple independant multicast routing instances. This can be useful to seperate traffic when building a multicast router that is serving multiple independant networks. Patch 09 contains a more detailed description of this feature in the changelog. The patchset consists of the following parts: - Patch 01 and 02 consolidate a small amount of code in the different fib_rules users. - Patch 03 decouples fib_rules family values from real address families to allow using them in code that is not a seperate address family without increasing AF_MAX/NPROTO. - Patch 04 moves the raw_sock/raw_sk() definitions from icmp.h to raw.h since they will also be used by ipmr in a following patch. - Patch 05-08 contain some preparatory work and cleanup for supporting multiple multicast routing instances. - Patch 09 contains the actual changes to support multiple multicast routing instances. These patches have been tested using pimd by myself and using xorp by Ben Greear. Comments welcome. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
