[PATCH net-next-2.6] macvlan: Forward unicast frames in bridge mode to lowerdev

From: David Ward <hidden>
Date: 2011-05-19 14:43:07
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Unicast frames between macvlan interfaces in bridge mode are not otherwise
sent to network taps on the lowerdev (as all other macvlan frames are), so
forward the frames to the receive queue of the lowerdev first.
