Hi,
if I understand next code correctly maximum number of MACs is bound to
maximum number of ports ?!?. Why is that ?
code from net/bridge.c:
c[n_clusters].my_macs = (struct bdg_addr *)
malloc(BDG_MAX_PORTS * sizeof(struct bdg_addr),
M_IFADDR, M_NOWAIT | M_ZERO);
The best will be to allocate MAC entries dynamically. But there should
be at least another definition for
maximum MACs for port something like BDG_MAX_MACS ... which could be set
at compile time because the current
situation doesn't make sense at least for me or possibly I misunderstand
something.
