RE: [PATCH iproute2] bridge:fdb: Protocol field in bridge fdb

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for the review.
The kernel patch is in:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/[email protected]/T/#u

I have created a new patch review request for iproute2-next. Updated, the etc/iproute2/rt_protos based on your review comments:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/[email protected]/T/#u

Thanks,
Mrinmoy

Where is the kernel patch for this?
Iproute headers are synced from kernel headers.

If you add new RTPROT entry also need new line into etc/iproute2/rt_protos
