Given that standalone ports are now configured to bypass the ATU and forward all frames towards the upstream port, extend the ATU bypass to multichip systems. Load VID 0 (standalone) into the VTU with the policy bit set. Since VID 4095 (bridged) is already loaded, we now know that all VIDs in use are always available in all VTUs. Therefore, we can safely enable 802.1Q on DSA ports. Setting the DSA ports' VTU policy to TRAP means that all incoming frames on VID 0 will be classified as MGMT - as a result, the ATU is bypassed on all subsequent switches. With this isolation in place, we are able to support configurations that are simultaneously very quirky and very useful. Quirky because it involves looping cables between local switchports like in this example: CPU | .------. .---0---. | .----0----. | sw0 | | | sw1 | '-1-2-3-' | '-1-2-3-4-' $ @ '---' $ @ % % We have three physically looped pairs ($, @, and %). This is very useful because it allows us to run the kernel's kselftests for the bridge on mv88e6xxx hardware.
