<id>urn:sha1:c595c4330da06fff716337239a8d5e528341a502</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for offloading MRP in HW. Currently implement the switchdev
calls 'SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_MRP', 'SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_RING_ROLE_MRP',
to allow to create MRP instances and to set the role of these instances.

Add DSA_NOTIFIER_MRP_ADD/DEL and DSA_NOTIFIER_MRP_ADD/DEL_RING_ROLE
which calls to .port_mrp_add/del and .port_mrp_add/del_ring_role in the
DSA driver for the switch.

Some drivers can't dynamically change the VLAN filtering option, or
impose some restrictions, it would be nice to propagate this info
through netlink instead of printing it to a kernel log that might never
be read. Also netlink extack includes the module that emitted the
message, which means that it's easier to figure out which ones are
driver-generated errors as opposed to command misuse.

Allow drivers to communicate their restrictions to user space directly,
instead of printing to the kernel log. Where the conversion would have
been lossy and things like VLAN ID could no longer be conveyed (due to
the lack of support for printf format specifier in netlink extack), I
chose to keep the messages in full form to the kernel log only, and
leave it up to individual driver maintainers to move more messages to
extack.

<title>net: dsa: tag_ocelot: create separate tagger for Seville</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7c4bb540e9173c914c2091fdd9b6aee3c2a3e1e5</id>
<content type='text'>
The ocelot tagger is a hot mess currently, it relies on memory
initialized by the attached driver for basic frame transmission.
This is against all that DSA tagging protocols stand for, which is that
the transmission and reception of a DSA-tagged frame, the data path,
should be independent from the switch control path, because the tag
protocol is in principle hot-pluggable and reusable across switches
(even if in practice it wasn't until very recently). But if another
driver like dsa_loop wants to make use of tag_ocelot, it couldn't.

This was done to have common code between Felix and Ocelot, which have
one bit difference in the frame header format. Quoting from commit
67c2404922c2 ("net: dsa: felix: create a template for the DSA tags on
xmit"):

    Other alternatives have been analyzed, such as:
    - Create a separate tag_seville.c: too much code duplication for just 1
      bit field difference.
    - Create a separate DSA_TAG_PROTO_SEVILLE under tag_ocelot.c, just like
      tag_brcm.c, which would have a separate .xmit function. Again, too
      much code duplication for just 1 bit field difference.
    - Allocate the template from the init function of the tag_ocelot.c
      module, instead of from the driver: couldn't figure out a method of
      accessing the correct port template corresponding to the correct
      tagger in the .xmit function.

The really interesting part is that Seville should have had its own
tagging protocol defined - it is not compatible on the wire with Ocelot,
even for that single bit. In principle, a packet generated by
DSA_TAG_PROTO_OCELOT when booted on NXP LS1028A would look in a certain
way, but when booted on NXP T1040 it would look differently. The reverse
is also true: a packet generated by a Seville switch would be
interpreted incorrectly by Wireshark if it was told it was generated by
an Ocelot switch.

Actually things are a bit more nuanced. If we concentrate only on the
DSA tag, what I said above is true, but Ocelot/Seville also support an
optional DSA tag prefix, which can be short or long, and it is possible
to distinguish the two taggers based on an integer constant put in that
prefix. Nonetheless, creating a separate tagger is still justified,
since the tag prefix is optional, and without it, there is again no way
to distinguish.

Claiming backwards binary compatibility is a bit more tough, since I've
already changed the format of tag_ocelot once, in commit 5124197ce58b
("net: dsa: tag_ocelot: use a short prefix on both ingress and egress").
Therefore I am not very concerned with treating this as a bugfix and
backporting it to stable kernels (which would be another mess due to the
fact that there would be lots of conflicts with the other DSA_TAG_PROTO*
definitions). It's just simpler to say that the string values of the
taggers have ABI value starting with kernel 5.12, which will be when the
changing of tag protocol via /sys/class/net/&lt;dsa-master&gt;/dsa/tagging
goes live.

<title>net: dsa: act as passthrough for bridge port flags</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a8b659e7ff75a6e766bc5691df57ceb26018db9f</id>
<content type='text'>
There are multiple ways in which a PORT_BRIDGE_FLAGS attribute can be
expressed by the bridge through switchdev, and not all of them can be
emulated by DSA mid-layer API at the same time.

One possible configuration is when the bridge offloads the port flags
using a mask that has a single bit set - therefore only one feature
should change. However, DSA currently groups together unicast and
multicast flooding in the .port_egress_floods method, which limits our
options when we try to add support for turning off broadcast flooding:
do we extend .port_egress_floods with a third parameter which b53 and
mv88e6xxx will ignore? But that means that the DSA layer, which
currently implements the PRE_BRIDGE_FLAGS attribute all by itself, will
see that .port_egress_floods is implemented, and will report that all 3
types of flooding are supported - not necessarily true.

Another configuration is when the user specifies more than one flag at
the same time, in the same netlink message. If we were to create one
individual function per offloadable bridge port flag, we would limit the
expressiveness of the switch driver of refusing certain combinations of
flag values. For example, a switch may not have an explicit knob for
flooding of unknown multicast, just for flooding in general. In that
case, the only correct thing to do is to allow changes to BR_FLOOD and
BR_MCAST_FLOOD in tandem, and never allow mismatched values. But having
a separate .port_set_unicast_flood and .port_set_multicast_flood would
not allow the driver to possibly reject that.

Also, DSA doesn't consider it necessary to inform the driver that a
SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_BRIDGE_MROUTER attribute was offloaded, because it
just calls .port_egress_floods for the CPU port. When we'll add support
for the plain SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_MROUTER, that will become a real
problem because the flood settings will need to be held statefully in
the DSA middle layer, otherwise changing the mrouter port attribute will
impact the flooding attribute. And that's _assuming_ that the underlying
hardware doesn't have anything else to do when a multicast router
attaches to a port than flood unknown traffic to it.  If it does, there
will need to be a dedicated .port_set_mrouter anyway.

So we need to let the DSA drivers see the exact form that the bridge
passes this switchdev attribute in, otherwise we are standing in the
way. Therefore we also need to use this form of language when
communicating to the driver that it needs to configure its initial
(before bridge join) and final (after bridge leave) port flags.

The b53 and mv88e6xxx drivers are converted to the passthrough API and
their implementation of .port_egress_floods is split into two: a
function that configures unicast flooding and another for multicast.
The mv88e6xxx implementation is quite hairy, and it turns out that
the implementations of unknown unicast flooding are actually the same
for 6185 and for 6352:

behind the confusing names actually lie two individual bits:
NO_UNKNOWN_MC -&gt; FLOOD_UC = 0x4 = BIT(2)
NO_UNKNOWN_UC -&gt; FLOOD_MC = 0x8 = BIT(3)

so there was no reason to entangle them in the first place.

Whereas the 6185 writes to MV88E6185_PORT_CTL0_FORWARD_UNKNOWN of
PORT_CTL0, which has the exact same bit index. I have left the
implementations separate though, for the only reason that the names are
different enough to confuse me, since I am not able to double-check with
a user manual. The multicast flooding setting for 6185 is in a different
register than for 6352 though.

Add DSA_NOTIFIER_HSR_JOIN and DSA_NOTIFIER_HSR_LEAVE which trigger calls
to .port_hsr_join and .port_hsr_leave in the DSA driver for the switch.

The DSA switch driver should then set netdev feature flags for the

<title>net: dsa: add a second tagger for Ocelot switches based on tag_8021q</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7c83a7c539abe9f980996063ac20532a7a7f6eb1</id>
<content type='text'>
There are use cases for which the existing tagger, based on the NPI
(Node Processor Interface) functionality, is insufficient.

Namely:
- Frames injected through the NPI port bypass the frame analyzer, so no
  source address learning is performed, no TSN stream classification,
  etc.
- Flow control is not functional over an NPI port (PAUSE frames are
  encapsulated in the same Extraction Frame Header as all other frames)
- There can be at most one NPI port configured for an Ocelot switch. But
  in NXP LS1028A and T1040 there are two Ethernet CPU ports. The non-NPI
  port is currently either disabled, or operated as a plain user port
  (albeit an internally-facing one). Having the ability to configure the
  two CPU ports symmetrically could pave the way for e.g. creating a LAG
  between them, to increase bandwidth seamlessly for the system.

So there is a desire to have an alternative to the NPI mode. This change
keeps the default tagger for the Seville and Felix switches as "ocelot",
but it can be changed via the following device attribute:

echo ocelot-8021q &gt; /sys/class/&lt;dsa-master&gt;/dsa/tagging

<title>net: dsa: allow changing the tag protocol via the "tagging" device attribute</title>

<id>urn:sha1:53da0ebaad102626f56495e0967a614f89a2acc8</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently DSA exposes the following sysfs:
$ cat /sys/class/net/eno2/dsa/tagging
ocelot

which is a read-only device attribute, introduced in the kernel as
commit 98cdb4807123 ("net: dsa: Expose tagging protocol to user-space"),
and used by libpcap since its commit 993db3800d7d ("Add support for DSA
link-layer types").

It would be nice if we could extend this device attribute by making it
writable:
$ echo ocelot-8021q &gt; /sys/class/net/eno2/dsa/tagging

This is useful with DSA switches that can make use of more than one
tagging protocol. It may be useful in dsa_loop in the future too, to
perform offline testing of various taggers, or for changing between dsa
and edsa on Marvell switches, if that is desirable.

In terms of implementation, drivers can support this feature by
implementing .change_tag_protocol, which should always leave the switch
in a consistent state: either with the new protocol if things went well,
or with the old one if something failed. Teardown of the old protocol,
if necessary, must be handled by the driver.

Some things remain as before:
- The .get_tag_protocol is currently only called at probe time, to load
  the initial tagging protocol driver. Nonetheless, new drivers should
  report the tagging protocol in current use now.
- The driver should manage by itself the initial setup of tagging
  protocol, no later than the .setup() method, as well as destroying
  resources used by the last tagger in use, no earlier than the
  .teardown() method.

For multi-switch DSA trees, error handling is a bit more complicated,
since e.g. the 5th out of 7 switches may fail to change the tag
protocol. When that happens, a revert to the original tag protocol is
attempted, but that may fail too, leaving the tree in an inconsistent
state despite each individual switch implementing .change_tag_protocol
transactionally. Since the intersection between drivers that implement
.change_tag_protocol and drivers that support D in DSA is currently the
empty set, the possibility for this error to happen is ignored for now.

Cascading DSA switches can be done multiple ways. There is the brute
force approach / tag stacking, where one upstream switch, located
between leaf switches and the host Ethernet controller, will just
happily transport the DSA header of those leaf switches as payload.
For this kind of setups, DSA works without any special kind of treatment
compared to a single switch - they just aren't aware of each other.
Then there's the approach where the upstream switch understands the tags
it transports from its leaves below, as it doesn't push a tag of its own,
but it routes based on the source port &amp; switch id information present
in that tag (as opposed to DMAC &amp; VID) and it strips the tag when
egressing a front-facing port. Currently only Marvell implements the
latter, and Marvell DSA trees contain only Marvell switches.

So it is safe to say that DSA trees already have a single tag protocol
shared by all switches, and in fact this is what makes the switches able
to understand each other. This fact is also implied by the fact that
currently, the tagging protocol is reported as part of a sysfs installed
on the DSA master and not per port, so it must be the same for all the
ports connected to that DSA master regardless of the switch that they
belong to.

It's time to make this official and enforce it (yes, this also means we
won't have any "switch understands tag to some extent but is not able to
speak it" hardware oddities that we'll support in the future).

This is needed due to the imminent introduction of the dsa_switch_ops::
change_tag_protocol driver API. When that is introduced, we'll have
to notify switches of the tagging protocol that they're configured to
use. Currently the tag_ops structure pointer is held only for CPU ports.
But there are switches which don't have CPU ports and nonetheless still
need to be configured. These would be Marvell leaf switches whose
upstream port is just a DSA link. How do we inform these of their
tagging protocol setup/deletion?

One answer to the above would be: iterate through the DSA switch tree's
ports once, list the CPU ports, get their tag_ops, then iterate again
now that we have it, and notify everybody of that tag_ops. But what to
do if conflicts appear between one cpu_dp-&gt;tag_ops and another? There's
no escaping the fact that conflict resolution needs to be done, so we
can be upfront about it.

Ease our work and just keep the master copy of the tag_ops inside the
struct dsa_switch_tree. Reference counting is now moved to be per-tree
too, instead of per-CPU port.

There are many places in the data path that access master-&gt;dsa_ptr-&gt;tag_ops
and we would introduce unnecessary performance penalty going through yet
another indirection, so keep those right where they are.

Switches that care about QoS might have hardware support for reserving
buffer pools for individual ports or traffic classes, and configuring
their sizes and thresholds. Through devlink-sb (shared buffers), this is
all configurable, as well as their occupancy being viewable.

Add the plumbing in DSA for these operations.

Individual drivers still need to call devlink_sb_register() with the
shared buffers they want to expose. A helper was not created in DSA for
this purpose (unlike, say, dsa_devlink_params_register), since in my
opinion it does not bring any benefit over plainly calling
devlink_sb_register() directly.
