      net: dsa: sja1105: be stateless when installing FDB entries · b11f0a4c
      Vladimir Oltean authored 
      Currently there are issues when adding a bridge FDB entry as VLAN-aware
and deleting it as VLAN-unaware, or vice versa.

However this is an unneeded complication, since the bridge always
installs its default FDB entries in VLAN 0 to match on VLAN-unaware
ports, and in the default_pvid (VLAN 1) to match on VLAN-aware ports.
So instead of trying to outsmart the bridge, just install all entries it
gives us, and they will start matching packets when the vlan_filtering
mode changes.

====================
Plug the last 2 holes in the switchdev notifiers for local FDB entries

The work for trapping local FDB entries to the CPU in switchdev/DSA
started with the "RX filtering in DSA" series:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/20210629140658.2510288-1-olteanv@gmail.com/
and was continued with further improvements such as "Fan out FDB entries
pointing towards the bridge to all switchdev member ports":
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/20210719135140.278938-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/20210720173557.999534-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/

There are only 2 more issues left to be addressed (famous last words),
and these are:
- dynamically learned FDB entries towards interfaces foreign to DSA need
  to be replayed too
- adding/deleting a VLAN on a port causes the local FDB entries in that
  VLAN to be prematurely deleted

This patch series addresses both, and patch 2 depends on 1 to work properly.

      net: bridge: switchdev: treat local FDBs the same as entries towards the bridge · 52e4bec1
      Vladimir Oltean authored 
      Currently the following script:

1. ip link add br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1 && ip link set br0 up
2. ip link set swp2 up && ip link set swp2 master br0
3. ip link set swp3 up && ip link set swp3 master br0
4. ip link set swp4 up && ip link set swp4 master br0
5. bridge vlan del dev swp2 vid 1
6. bridge vlan del dev swp3 vid 1
7. ip link set swp4 nomaster
8. ip link set swp3 nomaster

produces the following output:

[  641.010738] sja1105 spi0.1: port 2 failed to delete 00:1f:7b:63:02:48 vid 1 from fdb: -2

[ swp2, swp3 and br0 all have the same MAC address, the one listed above ]

In short, this happens because the number of FDB entry additions
notified to switchdev is unbalanced with the number of deletions.

At step 1, the bridge has a random MAC address. At step 2, the
br_fdb_replay of swp2 receives this initial MAC address. Then the bridge
inherits the MAC address of swp2 via br_fdb_change_mac_address(), and it
notifies switchdev (only swp2 at this point) of the deletion of the
random MAC address and the addition of 00:1f:7b:63:02:48 as a local FDB
entry with fdb->dst == swp2, in VLANs 0 and the default_pvid (1).

During step 7:

del_nbp
-> br_fdb_delete_by_port(br, p, vid=0, do_all=1);
   -> fdb_delete_local(br, p, f);

br_fdb_delete_by_port() deletes all entries towards the ports,
regardless of vid, because do_all is 1.

fdb_delete_local() has logic to migrate local FDB entries deleted from
one port to another port which shares the same MAC address and is in the
same VLAN, or to the bridge device itself. This migration happens
without notifying switchdev of the deletion on the old port and the
addition on the new one, just fdb->dst is changed and the added_by_user
flag is cleared.

In the example above, the del_nbp(swp4) causes the
"addr 00:1f:7b:63:02:48 vid 1" local FDB entry with fdb->dst == swp4
that existed up until then to be migrated directly towards the bridge
(fdb->dst == NULL). This is because it cannot be migrated to any of the
other ports (swp2 and swp3 are not in VLAN 1).

After the migration to br0 takes place, swp4 requests a deletion replay
of all FDB entries. Since the "addr 00:1f:7b:63:02:48 vid 1" entry now
point towards the bridge, a deletion of it is replayed. There was just
a prior addition of this address, so the switchdev driver deletes this
entry.

Then, the del_nbp(swp3) at step 8 triggers another br_fdb_replay, and
switchdev is notified again to delete "addr 00:1f:7b:63:02:48 vid 1".
But it can't because it no longer has it, so it returns -ENOENT.

There are other possibilities to trigger this issue, but this is by far
the simplest to explain.

To fix this, we must avoid the situation where the addition of an FDB
entry is notified to switchdev as a local entry on a port, and the
deletion is notified on the bridge itself.

Considering that the 2 types of FDB entries are completely equivalent
and we cannot have the same MAC address as a local entry on 2 bridge
ports, or on a bridge port and pointing towards the bridge at the same
time, it makes sense to hide away from switchdev completely the fact
that a local FDB entry is associated with a given bridge port at all.
Just say that it points towards the bridge, it should make no difference
whatsoever to the switchdev driver and should even lead to a simpler
overall implementation, will less cases to handle.

This also avoids any modification at all to the core bridge driver, just
what is reported to switchdev changes. With the local/permanent entries
on bridge ports being already reported to user space, it is hard to
believe that the bridge behavior can change in any backwards-incompatible
way such as making all local FDB entries point towards the bridge.

      net: bridge: switchdev: replay the entire FDB for each port · b4454bc6
      Vladimir Oltean authored 
      Currently when a switchdev port joins a bridge, we replay all FDB
entries pointing towards that port or towards the bridge.

However, this is insufficient in certain situations:

(a) DSA, through its assisted_learning_on_cpu_port logic, snoops
    dynamically learned FDB entries on foreign interfaces.
    These are FDB entries that are pointing neither towards the newly
    joined switchdev port, nor towards the bridge. So these addresses
    would be missed when joining a bridge where a foreign interface has
    already learned some addresses, and they would also linger on if the
    DSA port leaves the bridge before the foreign interface forgets them.
    None of this happens if we replay the entire FDB when the port joins.

(b) There is a desire to treat local FDB entries on a port (i.e. the
    port's termination MAC address) identically to FDB entries pointing
    towards the bridge itself. More details on the reason behind this in
    the next patch. The point is that this cannot be done given the
    current structure of br_fdb_replay() in this situation:
      ip link set swp0 master br0  # br0 inherits its MAC address from swp0
      ip link set swp1 master br0
    What is desirable is that when swp1 joins the bridge, br_fdb_replay()
    also notifies swp1 of br0's MAC address, but this won't in fact
    happen because the MAC address of br0 does not have fdb->dst == NULL
    (it doesn't point towards the bridge), but it has fdb->dst == swp0.
    So our current logic makes it impossible for that address to be
    replayed. But if we dump the entire FDB instead of just the entries
    with fdb->dst == swp1 and fdb->dst == NULL, then the inherited MAC
    address of br0 will be replayed too, which is what we need.

A natural question arises: say there is an FDB entry to be replayed,
like a MAC address dynamically learned on a foreign interface that
belongs to a bridge where no switchdev port has joined yet. If 10
switchdev ports belonging to the same driver join this bridge, one by
one, won't every port get notified 10 times of the foreign FDB entry,
amounting to a total of 100 notifications for this FDB entry in the
switchdev driver?

Well, yes, but this is where the "void *ctx" argument for br_fdb_replay
is useful: every port of the switchdev driver is notified whenever any
other port requests an FDB replay, but because the replay was initiated
by a different port, its context is different from the initiating port's
context, so it ignores those replays.

So the foreign FDB entry will be installed only 10 times, once per port.
This is done so that the following 4 code paths are always well balanced:
(a) addition of foreign FDB entry is replayed when port joins bridge
(b) deletion of foreign FDB entry is replayed when port leaves bridge
(c) addition of foreign FDB entry is notified to all ports currently in bridge
(c) deletion of foreign FDB entry is notified to all ports currently in bridge

====================
bnxt_en: PTP enhancements

This series adds two PTP enhancements.  This first one is to register
the PHC during probe time and keep it registered whether it is in
ifup or ifdown state.  It will get unregistered and possibly
reregistered if the firmware PTP capability changes after firmware
reset.  The second one is to add the 1PPS (one pulse per second)
feature to support input/output of the 1PPS signal.
