Linux kernel source tree
85e482285b
In order for an interface to forward packets according to the kernel multicast routing table, it must be configured with a VIF index according to the mroute user API. The VIF index is then used to refer to that interface in the mroute user API, for example, to set the iif and oifs of an MFC entry. In order to allow drivers to be aware and offload multicast routes, they have to be aware of the VIF add and delete notifications. Due to the fact that a specific VIF can be deleted and re-added pointing to another netdevice, and the MFC routes that point to it will forward the matching packets to the new netdevice, a driver willing to offload MFC cache entries must be aware of the VIF add and delete events in addition to MFC routes notifications.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
