Re: [net-next PATCH 2/2] bridge netlink dump interface at par with brctl Actually better than brctl showmacs because we can filter by bridge port in the kernel

Additional note:
This is also on top of Roopa's patch.

This is mostly to you Vlad since you brought it up earlier.
I ended using ifm instead of ndm. Currently there is lack of
symettry - we send requests with ifm and get responses with
ndms. Unfortunately after spending 2-3 hours I came to the
conclusion i cant change it without breaking old iproute2s that
were expecting this behavior. What we have here is a magnitude
better filtering but we could have done slightly better if we
were able to use an ndm. A little acrobatics later on to filter
by vlans may work..
