This is Linux bridge implementation of root port guard.
If BPDU is received from a leaf (edge) port, it should not
be elected as root port.
Why would you want to do this?
If using STP on a bridge and the downstream bridges are not fully
trusted; this prevents a hostile guest for rerouting traffic.
Why not just use netfilter?
Netfilter does not track of follow spanning tree decisions.
It would be difficult and error prone to try and mirror STP
resolution in netfilter module.

This is Linux bridge implementation of STP protection
(Cisco BPDU guard/Juniper BPDU block). BPDU block disables
the bridge port if a STP BPDU packet is received.
Why would you want to do this?
If running Spanning Tree on bridge, hostile devices on the network
may send BPDU and cause network failure. Enabling bpdu block
will detect and stop this.
How to recover the port?
The port will be restarted if link is brought down, or
removed and reattached. For example:
# ip li set dev eth0 down; ip li set dev eth0 up

Expose bridge port parameter over netlink. By switching to a nested
message, this can be used for other bridge parameters.
This changes IFLA_PROTINFO attribute from one byte to a full nested
set of attributes. This is safe for application interface because the
old message used IFLA_PROTINFO and new one uses
IFLA_PROTINFO | NLA_F_NESTED.
The code adapts to old format requests, and therefore stays
compatible with user mode RSTP daemon. Since the type field
for nested and unnested attributes are different, and the old
code in libnetlink doesn't do the mask, it is also safe to use
with old versions of bridge monitor command.
Note: although mode is only a boolean, treating it as a
full byte since in the future someone will probably want to add more
values (like macvlan has).

The tx data offset of packet mmap tx ring used to be :
(TPACKET2_HDRLEN - sizeof(struct sockaddr_ll))
The problem is that, with SOCK_RAW socket, the payload (14 bytes after
the beginning of the user data) is misaligned.
This patch allows to let the user gives an offset for it's tx data if
he desires.
Set sock option PACKET_TX_HAS_OFF to 1, then specify in each frame of
your tx ring tp_net for SOCK_DGRAM, or tp_mac for SOCK_RAW.

This Ethertype is used by every frame generated by B.A.T.M.A.N.-Advanced. Its

This patch adds an ioctl for PTP Hardware Clock (PHC) devices that allows
user space to measure the time offset between the PHC and the system
clock. Rather than hard coding any kind of estimation algorithm into the
kernel, this patch takes the more flexible approach of just delivering
an array of raw clock readings. In that way, the user space clock servo
may be adapted to new and different hardware clocks.

BPF filters lack ability to access skb->vlan_tci
This patch adds two new ancillary accessors :
SKF_AD_VLAN_TAG (44) mapped to vlan_tx_tag_get(skb)
SKF_AD_VLAN_TAG_PRESENT (48) mapped to vlan_tx_tag_present(skb)
This allows libpcap/tcpdump to use a kernel filter instead of
having to fallback to accept all packets, then filter them in
user space.

Hardware switches may support enabling and disabling the
loopback switch which puts the device in a VEPA mode defined
in the IEEE 802.1Qbg specification. In this mode frames are
not switched in the hardware but sent directly to the switch.
SR-IOV capable NICs will likely support this mode I am
aware of at least two such devices. Also I am told (but don't
have any of this hardware available) that there are devices
that only support VEPA modes. In these cases it is important
at a minimum to be able to query these attributes.
This patch adds an additional IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE attribute that can be
set and dumped via the PF_BRIDGE:{SET|GET}LINK operations. Also
anticipating bridge attributes that may be common for both embedded
bridges and software bridges this adds a flags attribute
IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS currently used to determine if the command or event
is being generated to/from an embedded bridge or software bridge.
Finally, the event generation is pulled out of the bridge module and
into rtnetlink proper.
For example using the macvlan driver in VEPA mode on top of
an embedded switch requires putting the embedded switch into
a VEPA mode to get the expected results.
-------- --------
| VEPA | | VEPA | <-- macvlan vepa edge relays
-------- --------
| |
| |
------------------
| VEPA | <-- embedded switch in NIC
------------------
|
|
-------------------
| external switch | <-- shiny new physical
------------------- switch with VEPA support
A packet sent from the macvlan VEPA at the top could be
loopbacked on the embedded switch and never seen by the
external switch. So in order for this to work the embedded
switch needs to be set in the VEPA state via the above
described commands.
By making these attributes nested in IFLA_AF_SPEC we allow
future extensions to be made as needed.
