+Subject: [PATCH] kni: use netlink event for multicast (driver part).
+
+kni driver send netlink event every time hw-multicast list updated by
+kernel, the user kni app should capture the event and update multicast
+to kni device.
+
+original way is using rte_kni_request to pass hw-multicast to user kni
+module. that method works but finally memory corruption found, which is
+not easy to address.
