2016-02-26net: ndo_fdb_dump should report -EMSGSIZE to rtnl_fdb_dump.MINOURA Makoto / 箕浦 真1-1/+4
When the send skbuff reaches the end, nlmsg_put and friends returns -EMSGSIZE but it is silently thrown away in ndo_fdb_dump. It is called within a for_each_netdev loop and the first fdb entry of a following netdev could fit in the remaining skbuff. This breaks the mechanism of cb->args[0] and idx to keep track of the entries that are already dumped, which results missing entries in bridge fdb show command.

2016-01-29switchdev: Require RTNL mutex to be held when sending FDB notificationsIdo Schimmel1-7/+8
When switchdev drivers process FDB notifications from the underlying device they resolve the netdev to which the entry points to and notify the bridge using the switchdev notifier. However, since the RTNL mutex is not held there is nothing preventing the netdev from disappearing in the middle, which will cause br_switchdev_event() to dereference a non-existing netdev. Make switchdev drivers hold the lock at the beginning of the notification processing session and release it once it ends, after notifying the bridge. Also, remove switchdev_mutex and fdb_lock, as they are no longer needed when RTNL mutex is held.

2015-12-15switchdev: Pass original device to port netdev driverIdo Schimmel1-0/+12
switchdev drivers need to know the netdev on which the switchdev op was invoked. For example, the STP state of a VLAN interface configured on top of a port can change while being member in a bridge. In this case, the underlying driver should only change the STP state of that particular VLAN and not of all the VLANs configured on the port. However, current switchdev infrastructure only passes the port netdev down to the driver. Solve that by passing the original device down to the driver as part of the required switchdev object / attribute. This doesn't entail any change in current switchdev drivers. It simply enables those supporting stacked devices to know the originating device and act accordingly.

2015-06-11switchdev: fix handling for drivers not supporting IPv4 fib add/del opsScott Feldman1-2/+2
If CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV is enabled, but port driver does not implement support for IPv4 FIB add/del ops, don't fail route add/del offload operations. Route adds will not be marked as OFFLOAD. Routes will be installed in the kernel FIB, as usual. This was report/fixed by Florian when testing DSA driver with net-next on devices with L2 offload support but no L3 offload support. What he reported was an initial route installed from DHCP client would fail (route not installed to kernel FIB). This was triggering the setting of ipv4.fib_offload_disabled, which would disable route offloading after the first failure. So subsequent attempts to install the route would succeed. There is follow-on work/discussion to address the handling of route install failures, but for now, let's differentiate between no support and failed support.
