I see that Stephen has already pointed you to mstpd in a sibling
message.
It is important to note though, that AFAIK mstpd does not actually
support MSTP on a vanilla Linux system. The protocol implementation is
in place, and they have a plugin architecture that makes it easy for people
to hook it up to various userspace SDKs and whatnot, but you can't use
it with a regular bridge.
A colleague of mine has been successfully running a modified version of
mstpd which was tailored for v1 of this series (RFC). But I do not
believe he has had the time to rework it for v2. That should mostly be a
matter of removing code though, as v2 allows you to manage the MSTIs
directly, rather than having to translate it to an associated VLAN.
