2017-04-21net: dsa: Remove redundant NULL dst checkFlorian Fainelli1-5/+0
tag_lan9303.c does check for a NULL dst but that's already checked by dsa_switch_rcv() one layer above. Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com> Acked-by: Juergen Borleis <jbe@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-04-20net: dsa: add support for the SMSC-LAN9303 tagging formatJuergen Beisert5-0/+152
To define the outgoing port and to discover the incoming port a regular VLAN tag is used by the LAN9303. But its VID meaning is 'special'. This tag handler/filter depends on some hardware features which must be enabled in the device to provide and make use of this special VLAN tag to control the destination and the source of an ethernet packet.

2017-04-08net: dsa: Factor bottom tag receive functionsFlorian Fainelli8-83/+52
All DSA tag receive functions do strictly the same thing after they have located the originating source port from their tag specific protocol: - push ETH_HLEN bytes - set pkt_type to PACKET_HOST - call eth_type_trans() - bump up counters - call netif_receive_skb() Factor all of that into dsa_switch_rcv(). This also makes us return a pointer to a sk_buff, which makes us symetric with the xmit function. Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Allow drivers to use the new DSA API with platform data. Most of the code in net/dsa/dsa2.c does not rely so much on device_nodes and can get the same information from platform_data instead. We purposely do not support distributed configurations with platform data, so drivers should be providing a pointer to a 'struct dsa_chip_data' structure if they wish to communicate per-port layout. Multiple CPUs port could potentially be supported and dsa_chip_data is extended to receive up to one reference to an upstream network device per port described by a dsa_chip_data structure. dsa_dev_to_net_device() increments the network device's reference count, so we intentionally call dev_put() to be consistent with the DT-enabled path, until we have a generic notifier based solution.

Now that the bridge_dev pointer is exposed to the drivers, reflecting the current state of the DSA switch fabric is necessary for the drivers to adjust their port based VLANs correctly.

We end-up having this slave network device find a PHY at the same address as our port number, and we try to attach to it. A slave network (e.g: port 0) has already attached to our PHY device, and we try to re-attach it with a different network device, but since we ignore the error we would end-up initializating incorrect device references by the time the slave network interface is opened.

2017-01-11net: dsa: make "label" property optional for dsa2Vivien Didelot1-20/+4
In the new DTS bindings for DSA (dsa2), the "ethernet" and "link" phandles are respectively mandatory and exclusive to CPU port and DSA link device tree nodes. Simplify dsa2.c a bit by checking the presence of such phandle instead of checking the redundant "label" property. Then the Linux philosophy for Ethernet switch ports is to expose them to userspace as standard NICs by default. Thus use the standard enumerated "eth%d" device name if no "label" property is provided for a user port. This allows to save DTS files from subjective net device names. If one wants to rename an interface, udev rules can be used as usual. Of course the current behavior is unchanged, and the optional "label" property for user ports has precedence over the enumerated name.
