Describe the bug When running EVPN-MH, synced neighbor updates across PEs on the shared segment fail to install, with netlink errors logged indicating that the update messages have a reserved bit set.
To Reproduce
EVPN config parts:
Logs from PE:
Expected behavior sync-neighbor updates properly installed.
Versions
Additional context
After debugging this a bit, it appears that netlink is taking issue with the "static" flag set on neighbor updates synced on the shared ES (static flag gets mapped to the NTF_E_MH_PEER_SYNC extended flag in the FRR source, but is assigned as NTF_EXT_LOCKED upstream). The error seems to be triggered by a failure of the update to pass validation of an NLA attribute mask.
