After routing, the device always consults a table that determines the
packet's egress VID based on {egress RIF, egress local port}. In the
unified bridge model, it is up to software to maintain this table via REIV
register.
The table needs to be updated in the following flows:
1. When a RIF is set on a FID, need to iterate over the FID's {Port, VID}
list and issue REIV write to map the {RIF, Port} to the given VID.
2. When a {Port, VID} is mapped to a FID and the FID already has a RIF,
need to issue REIV write with a single record to map the {RIF, Port}
to the given VID.
REIV register supports a simultaneous update of 256 ports, so use this
capability for the first flow.
Handle the two above mentioned flows.
Add mlxsw_sp_fid_evid_map() function to handle egress VID classification
for both unicast and multicast. Layer 2 multicast configuration is already
done in the driver, just move it to the new function.

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.
