From 93a714d6b53d87872e552dbb273544bdeaaf6e12 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Madhu Challa Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2015 09:58:35 -0800 Subject: multicast: Extend ip address command to enable multicast group join/leave on Joining multicast group on ethernet level via "ip maddr" command would not work if we have an Ethernet switch that does igmp snooping since the switch would not replicate multicast packets on ports that did not have IGMP reports for the multicast addresses. Linux vxlan interfaces created via "ip link add vxlan" have the group option that enables then to do the required join. By extending ip address command with option "autojoin" we can get similar functionality for openvswitch vxlan interfaces as well as other tunneling mechanisms that need to receive multicast traffic. The kernel code is structured similar to how the vxlan driver does a group join / leave. example: ip address add 224.1.1.10/24 dev eth5 autojoin ip address del 224.1.1.10/24 dev eth5 Signed-off-by: Madhu Challa Signed-off-by: David S.
