[ Upstream commit 34f3ff52cb9fa7dbf04f5c734fcc4cb6ed5d1a95 ]

Commit 15faa1f67ab4 ("lan966x: Fix crash when adding interface under a lag")
fixed a similar issue in the lan966x driver caused by a NULL pointer dereference.
The ocelot_set_aggr_pgids() function in the ocelot driver has similar logic
and is susceptible to the same crash.

This issue specifically affects the ocelot_vsc7514.c frontend, which leaves
unused ports as NULL pointers. The felix_vsc9959.c frontend is unaffected as
it uses the DSA framework which registers all ports.

Fix this by checking if the port pointer is valid before accessing it.

<title>net: mscc: ocelot: fix VCAP filters not matching on MAC with "protocol 802.1Q"</title>

[ Upstream commit f964f8399df29d3e3ced77177cf35131cd2491bf ]

Alternative short title: don't instruct the hardware to match on
EtherType with "protocol 802.1Q" flower filters. It doesn't work for the
reasons detailed below.

With a command such as the following:

tc filter add dev $swp1 ingress chain $(IS1 2) pref 3 \
	protocol 802.1Q flower skip_sw vlan_id 200 src_mac $h1_mac \
	action vlan modify id 300 \
	action goto chain $(IS2 0 0)

the created filter is set by ocelot_flower_parse_key() to be of type
OCELOT_VCAP_KEY_ETYPE, and etype is set to {value=0x8100, mask=0xffff}.
This gets propagated all the way to is1_entry_set() which commits it to
hardware (the VCAP_IS1_HK_ETYPE field of the key). Compare this to the
case where src_mac isn't specified - the key type is OCELOT_VCAP_KEY_ANY,
and is1_entry_set() doesn't populate VCAP_IS1_HK_ETYPE.

The problem is that for VLAN-tagged frames, the hardware interprets the
ETYPE field as holding the encapsulated VLAN protocol. So the above
filter will only match those packets which have an encapsulated protocol
of 0x8100, rather than all packets with VLAN ID 200 and the given src_mac.

The reason why this is allowed to occur is because, although we have a
block of code in ocelot_flower_parse_key() which sets "match_protocol"
to false when VLAN keys are present, that code executes too late.
There is another block of code, which executes for Ethernet addresses,
and has a "goto finished_key_parsing" and skips the VLAN header parsing.
By skipping it, "match_protocol" remains with the value it was
initialized with, i.e. "true", and "proto" is set to f-&gt;common.protocol,
or 0x8100.

The concept of ignoring some keys rather than erroring out when they are
present but can't be offloaded is dubious in itself, but is present
since the initial commit fe3490e6107e ("net: mscc: ocelot: Hardware
ofload for tc flower filter"), and it's outside of the scope of this
patch to change that.

The problem was introduced when the driver started to interpret the
flower filter's protocol, and populate the VCAP filter's ETYPE field
based on it.

To fix this, it is sufficient to move the code that parses the VLAN keys
earlier than the "goto finished_key_parsing" instruction. This will
ensure that if we have a flower filter with both VLAN and Ethernet
address keys, it won't match on ETYPE 0x8100, because the VLAN key
parsing sets "match_protocol = false".

<title>net: mscc: ocelot: allow unregistered IP multicast flooding to CPU</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5696f7983d5d0dc070b4c0c07969d528aa553827</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 4cf35a2b627a ("net: mscc: ocelot: fix broken IP multicast
flooding") from v5.12, unregistered IP multicast flooding is
configurable in the ocelot driver for bridged ports. However, by writing
0 to the PGID_MCIPV4 and PGID_MCIPV6 port masks at initialization time,
the CPU port module, for which ocelot_port_set_mcast_flood() is not
called, will have unknown IP multicast flooding disabled.

This makes it impossible for an application such as smcroute to work
properly, since all IP multicast traffic received on a standalone port
is treated as unregistered (and dropped).

Starting with commit 7569459a52c9 ("net: dsa: manage flooding on the CPU
ports"), the limitation above has been lifted, because when standalone
ports become IFF_PROMISC or IFF_ALLMULTI, ocelot_port_set_mcast_flood()
would be called on the CPU port module, so unregistered multicast is
flooded to the CPU on an as-needed basis.

But between v5.12 and v5.18, IP multicast flooding to the CPU has
remained broken, promiscuous or not.

Delete the inexplicable premature optimization of clearing PGID_MCIPV4
and PGID_MCIPV6 as part of the init sequence, and allow unregistered IP
multicast to be flooded freely to the CPU port module.

<title>net: mscc: ocelot: avoid corrupting hardware counters when moving VCAP filters</title>

[ Upstream commit 93a8417088ea570b5721d2b526337a2d3aed9fa3 ]

Given the following order of operations:

(1) we add filter A using tc-flower
(2) we send a packet that matches it
(3) we read the filter's statistics to find a hit count of 1
(4) we add a second filter B with a higher preference than A, and A
    moves one position to the right to make room in the TCAM for it
(5) we send another packet, and this matches the second filter B
(6) we read the filter statistics again.

When this happens, the hit count of filter A is 2 and of filter B is 1,
despite a single packet having matched each filter.

Furthermore, in an alternate history, reading the filter stats a second
time between steps (3) and (4) makes the hit count of filter A remain at
1 after step (6), as expected.

The reason why this happens has to do with the filter-&gt;stats.pkts field,
which is written to hardware through the call path below:

               vcap_entry_set
               /      |      \
              /       |       \
             /        |        \
            /         |         \
es0_entry_set   is1_entry_set   is2_entry_set
            \         |         /
             \        |        /
              \       |       /
        vcap_data_set(data.counter, ...)

The primary role of filter-&gt;stats.pkts is to transport the filter hit
counters from the last readout all the way from vcap_entry_get() -&gt;
ocelot_vcap_filter_stats_update() -&gt; ocelot_cls_flower_stats().
The reason why vcap_entry_set() writes it to hardware is so that the
counters (saturating and having a limited bit width) are cleared
after each user space readout.

The writing of filter-&gt;stats.pkts to hardware during the TCAM entry
movement procedure is an unintentional consequence of the code design,
because the hit count isn't up to date at this point.

So at step (4), when filter A is moved by ocelot_vcap_filter_add() to
make room for filter B, the hardware hit count is 0 (no packet matched
on it in the meantime), but filter-&gt;stats.pkts is 1, because the last
readout saw the earlier packet. The movement procedure programs the old
hit count back to hardware, so this creates the impression to user space
that more packets have been matched than they really were.

The bug can be seen when running the gact_drop_and_ok_test() from the
tc_actions.sh selftest.

Fix the issue by reading back the hit count to tmp-&gt;stats.pkts before
migrating the VCAP filter. Sure, this is a best-effort technique, since
the packets that hit the rule between vcap_entry_get() and
vcap_entry_set() won't be counted, but at least it allows the counters
to be reliably used for selftests where the traffic is under control.

The vcap_entry_get() name is a bit unintuitive, but it only reads back
the counter portion of the TCAM entry, not the entire entry.

The index from which we retrieve the counter is also a bit unintuitive
(i - 1 during add, i + 1 during del), but this is the way in which TCAM
entry movement works. The "entry index" isn't a stored integer for a
TCAM filter, instead it is dynamically computed by
ocelot_vcap_block_get_filter_index() based on the entry's position in
the &amp;block-&gt;rules list. That position (as well as block-&gt;count) is
automatically updated by ocelot_vcap_filter_add_to_block() on add, and
by ocelot_vcap_block_remove_filter() on del. So "i" is the new filter
index, and "i - 1" or "i + 1" respectively are the old addresses of that
TCAM entry (we only support installing/deleting one filter at a time).

[ Upstream commit 477d2b91623e682e9a8126ea92acb8f684969cc7 ]

Once the CPU port was added to the destination port mask of a packet, it
can never be cleared, so even packets marked as dropped by the MASK_MODE
of a VCAP IS2 filter will still reach it. This is why we need the
OCELOT_POLICER_DISCARD to "kill dropped packets dead" and make software
stop seeing them.

We disallow policer rules from being put on any other chain than the one
for the first lookup, but we don't do this for "drop" rules, although we
should. This change is merely ascertaining that the rules dont't
(completely) work and letting the user know.

The blamed commit is the one that introduced the multi-chain architecture
in ocelot. Prior to that, we should have always offloaded the filters to
VCAP IS2 lookup 0, where they did work.

[ Upstream commit 6741e11880003e35802d78cc58035057934f4dab ]

The VCAP IS2 TCAM is looked up twice per packet, and each filter can be
configured to only match during the first, second lookup, or both, or
none.

The blamed commit wrote the code for making VCAP IS2 filters match only
on the given lookup. But right below that code, there was another line
that explicitly made the lookup a "don't care", and this is overwriting
the lookup we've selected. So the code had no effect.

Some of the more noticeable effects of having filters match on both
lookups:

- in "tc -s filter show dev swp0 ingress", we see each packet matching a
  VCAP IS2 filter counted twice. This throws off scripts such as
  tools/testing/selftests/net/forwarding/tc_actions.sh and makes them
  fail.

- a "tc-drop" action offloaded to VCAP IS2 needs a policer as well,
  because once the CPU port becomes a member of the destination port
  mask of a packet, nothing removes it, not even a PERMIT/DENY mask mode
  with a port mask of 0. But VCAP IS2 rules with the POLICE_ENA bit in
  the action vector can only appear in the first lookup. What happens
  when a filter matches both lookups is that the action vector is
  combined, and this makes the POLICE_ENA bit ineffective, since the
  last lookup in which it has appeared is the second one. In other
  words, "tc-drop" actions do not drop packets for the CPU port, dropped
  packets are still seen by software unless there was an FDB entry that
  directed those packets to some other place different from the CPU.

The last bit used to work, because in the initial commit b596229448dd
("net: mscc: ocelot: Add support for tcam"), we were writing the FIRST
field of the VCAP IS2 half key with a 1, not with a "don't care".
The change to "don't care" was made inadvertently by me in commit
c1c3993edb7c ("net: mscc: ocelot: generalize existing code for VCAP"),
which I just realized, and which needs a separate fix from this one,
for "stable" kernels that lack the commit blamed below.

[ Upstream commit 16bbebd35629c93a8c68c6d8d28557e100bcee73 ]

ocelot_vcap_filter_del() works by moving the next filters over the
current one, and then deleting the last filter by calling vcap_entry_set()
with a del_filter which was specially created by memsetting its memory
to zeroes. vcap_entry_set() then programs this to the TCAM and action
RAM via the cache registers.

The problem is that vcap_entry_set() is a dispatch function which looks
at del_filter-&gt;block_id. But since del_filter is zeroized memory, the
block_id is 0, or otherwise said, VCAP_ES0. So practically, what we do
is delete the entry at the same TCAM index from VCAP ES0 instead of IS1
or IS2.

The code was not always like this. vcap_entry_set() used to simply be
is2_entry_set(), and then, the logic used to work.

Restore the functionality by populating the block_id of the del_filter
based on the VCAP block of the filter that we're deleting. This makes
vcap_entry_set() know what to do.

this command should affect not only L2 multicast, but also IPv4 and IPv6

In the Ocelot switch, unknown multicast gets flooded according to
different PGIDs according to its type, and PGID_MC only handles L2
multicast. Therefore, by leaving PGID_MCIPV4 and PGID_MCIPV6 at their
default value of 0, unknown IP multicast traffic is never flooded.

ACL rules can be offloaded to VCAP IS2 either through chain 0, or, since
the blamed commit, through a chain index whose number encodes a specific
PAG (Policy Action Group) and lookup number.

The chain number is translated through ocelot_chain_to_pag() into a PAG,
and through ocelot_chain_to_lookup() into a lookup number.

The problem with the blamed commit is that the above 2 functions don't
have special treatment for chain 0. So ocelot_chain_to_pag(0) returns
filter-&gt;pag = 224, which is in fact -32, but the "pag" field is an u8.

So we end up programming the hardware with VCAP IS2 entries having a PAG
of 224. But the way in which the PAG works is that it defines a subset
of VCAP IS2 filters which should match on a packet. The default PAG is
0, and previous VCAP IS1 rules (which we offload using 'goto') can
modify it. So basically, we are installing filters with a PAG on which
no packet will ever match. This is the hardware equivalent of adding
filters to a chain which has no 'goto' to it.

Restore the previous functionality by making ACL filters offloaded to
chain 0 go to PAG 0 and lookup number 0. The choice of PAG is clearly
correct, but the choice of lookup number isn't "as before" (which was to
leave the lookup a "don't care"). However, lookup 0 should be fine,
since even though there are ACL actions (policers) which have a
requirement to be used in a specific lookup, that lookup is 0.
