Hi,
This patch-set adds support to specify filtering conditions for a bulk
delete (flush) operation. This version uses a new nlmsghdr delete flag
called NLM_F_BULK in combination with a new ndo_fdb_del_bulk op which is
used to signal that the driver supports bulk deletes (that avoids
pushing common mac address checks to ndo_fdb_del implementations and
also has a different prototype and parsed attribute expectations, more
info in patch 03). The new delete flag can be used for any RTM_DEL*
type, implementations just need to be careful with older kernels which
are doing non-strict attribute parses. A new rtnl flag
(RTNL_FLAG_BULK_DEL_SUPPORTED) is used to show that the delete supports
NLM_F_BULK. A proper error is returned if bulk delete is not supported.
For old kernels I use the fact that mac address attribute (lladdr) is
mandatory in the classic fdb del case, but it's not allowed if bulk
deleting so older kernels will error out.
