To make this work, I think we need to change the concept, so that blackhole FDB entries are added to ports connected to the bridge, thus
bridge fdb add MAC dev $swpX master blackhole

This makes sense as the driver adds them based on the port where the SMAC is seen, even though the effect of the blackhole FDB entry is switch wide.

Adding them to the bridge (e.g. f.ex. br0) will not work in the SW bridge as the entries then are not found. We could deny this possibility or just document the use?


For offloaded I can change the add, so that it does a delete (even if none are present) and a add, thus facilitating the replace.

How does this sound?
