...cs. We will discuss internally but I wanted to know why you guys think.
OK still things like specifying the mac are managed through rtnetlink,
right?
Right now it does not look like you can mix stats and vf, they are
handled separately:
if (rtnl_fill_stats(skb, dev))
goto nla_put_failure;
if (rtnl_fill_vf(skb, dev, ext_filter_mask))
goto nla_put_failure;
but ability to query vf stats on the host sounds useful generally.
As another option, we could use a vdpa specific way to retrieve stats,
and teach qemu to report them.

[Bridge] [PATCH v10 net-next 00/12] VLAN filtering/VLAN aware bridge
Changes since v9:
* series re-ordering so make functionality more distinct. Basic vlan
filtering is patches 1-4. Support for PVID/untagged vlans is patches
5 and 6. VLAN support for FDB/MDB is patches 7-11. Patch 12 is
still additional egress policy.
* Slight simplification to code that extracts the VID from skb. Since we
now depend on the vlan module, at the time of input skb_tci is

[Bridge] [RFC PATCH net-next 0/5] Add layer 2 miss indication and filtering
tl;dr
=====
This patchset adds a single bit to the skb to indicate that a packet
encountered a layer 2 miss in the bridge and extends flower to match on
this metadata. This is required for non-DF (Designated Forwarder)
filtering in EVPN multi-homing which prevents decapsulated BUM packets
from being forwarded multiple times to the same multi-homed host.

[Bridge] [PATCH net-next V5 00/14] Add basic VLAN support to bridges
This series of patches provides an ability to add VLANs to the bridge
ports. This is similar to what can be found in most switches. The bridge
port may have any number of VLANs added to it including vlan 0 priority tagged
traffic. When vlans are added to the port, only traffic tagged with particular
vlan will forwarded over this port. Additionally, vlan ids are added to FDB
entries and become

[Bridge] [PATCHv2 0/4] macvlan: add vepa and bridge mode
Second version, all feedback so far addressed, thanks for the
help and interest!
The patch to iproute2 has not changed, so I'm not including
it this time. Patch 4/4 (the netlink interface) is basically
unchanged as well but included for completeness.
The other changes have moved forward a bit, to the point where
I find them a lot cleaner and am more confident in the code

[Bridge] [PATCHv3 0/4] macvlan: add vepa and bridge mode
Not many changes this time, just integrated a bug fix
and all the coding style feedback from Eric Dumazet
and Patrick McHardy.
I'll keep the patch for network namespaces on the tx
path out of this series for now, because the discussion
is still ongoing and it addresses an unrelated issue.

[Bridge] [PATCH 0/3] macvlan: add vepa and bridge mode
This is based on an earlier patch from Eric Biederman adding
forwarding between macvlans. I extended his approach to
allow the administrator to choose the mode for each macvlan,
and to implement a functional VEPA between macvlan.
Still missing from this is support for communication between
the lower device that the macvlans are based on. This would
be extremely useful but as others have found out
