Subject: [PATCH V2] net/mlx5: add support for flows targeting multicast MAC addresses
Date: Thu, 14 Aug 2025 13:08:15 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250814100815.801132-1-gavinl@nvidia.com> (raw)
Rules for multicast MAC addresses are intended to filter multicast traffic
and are managed through multicast MAC add/remove APIs. In mlx5_dev_spawn
function, devices (PF, VFs, and SFs) retrieve the netdev-configured MAC
addresses via netlink and store them in the PMD device data, which
includes multicast MAC addresses.
To update multicast MAC address rules, create them within
mlx5_traffic_enable.
Fixes: 2d0665a7f771 ("net/mlx5: align PF and VF/SF MAC address handling")
