I have the bridge inside a network namespace. There is no
/sys/class/net entry for the bridge interface inside the namespace.

I see online references to this concept of 'tagged' sysfs directories
to support namespaces. But its not clear how to access the sysfs
entries for a particular namespace.

Is there any other way to set the default_pvid for the bridge
interface inside namespace ?

thanks for the help.

Manohar.
