Multicast replication requires adding one more level of FDB_BR_OFFLOAD priority flow tables. The new level is used for per-port multicast-specific tables that have following flow groups structure (flow highest to lowest priority): - Flow group of size one that matches on source port metadata. This will have a static single rule that prevent packets from being replicated to their source port. - Flow group of size one that matches all packets and forwards them to the port that owns the table. Initialize the table dynamically on all bridge ports when adding a port to the bridge that has multicast enabled and on all existing bridge ports when receiving multicast enable notification.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
