License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

net: bridge: disambiguate offload_fwd_mark
Before this change, four related - but distinct - concepts where named
offload_fwd_mark:
- skb->offload_fwd_mark: Set by the switchdev driver if the underlying
hardware has already forwarded this frame to the other ports in the
same hardware domain.
- nbp->offload_fwd_mark: An idetifier used to group ports that share
the same hardware forwarding domain.
- br->offload_fwd_mark: Counter used to make sure that unique IDs are
used in cases where a bridge contains ports from multiple hardware
domains.
- skb->cb->offload_fwd_mark: The hardware domain on which the frame
ingressed and was forwarded.
Introduce the term "hardware forwarding domain" ("hwdom") in the
bridge to denote a set of ports with the following property:
If an skb with skb->offload_fwd_mark set, is received on a port
belonging to hwdom N, that frame has already been forwarded to all
other ports in hwdom N.
By decoupling the name from "offload_fwd_mark", we can extend the
term's definition in the future - e.g. to add constraints that
describe expected egress behavior - without overloading the meaning of
"offload_fwd_mark".
- nbp->offload_fwd_mark thus becomes nbp->hwdom.
- br->offload_fwd_mark becomes br->last_hwdom.
- skb->cb->offload_fwd_mark becomes skb->cb->src_hwdom. The slight
change in naming here mandates a slight change in behavior of the
nbp_switchdev_frame_mark() function. Previously, it only set this
value in skb->cb for packets with skb->offload_fwd_mark true (ones
which were forwarded in hardware). Whereas now we always track the
incoming hwdom for all packets coming from a switchdev (even for the
packets which weren't forwarded in hardware, such as STP BPDUs, IGMP
reports etc). As all uses of skb->cb->offload_fwd_mark were already
gated behind checks of skb->offload_fwd_mark, this will not introduce
any functional change, but it paves the way for future changes where
the ingressing hwdom must be known for frames coming from a switchdev
regardless of whether they were forwarded in hardware or not
(basically, if the skb comes from a switchdev, skb->cb->src_hwdom now
always tracks which one).
A typical example where this is relevant: the switchdev has a fixed
configuration to trap STP BPDUs, but STP is not running on the bridge
and the group_fwd_mask allows them to be forwarded. Say we have this
setup:
br0
/ | \
/ | \
swp0 swp1 swp2
A BPDU comes in on swp0 and is trapped to the CPU; the driver does not
set skb->offload_fwd_mark. The bridge determines that the frame should
be forwarded to swp{1,2}. It is imperative that forward offloading is
_not_ allowed in this case, as the source hwdom is already "poisoned".
Recording the source hwdom allows this case to be handled properly.

net: switchdev: pass flags and mask to both {PRE_,}BRIDGE_FLAGS attributes
This switchdev attribute offers a counterproductive API for a driver
writer, because although br_switchdev_set_port_flag gets passed a
"flags" and a "mask", those are passed piecemeal to the driver, so while
the PRE_BRIDGE_FLAGS listener knows what changed because it has the
"mask", the BRIDGE_FLAGS listener doesn't, because it only has the final
value. But certain drivers can offload only certain combinations of
settings, like for example they cannot change unicast flooding
independently of multicast flooding - they must be both on or both off.
The way the information is passed to switchdev makes drivers not
expressive enough, and unable to reject this request ahead of time, in
the PRE_BRIDGE_FLAGS notifier, so they are forced to reject it during
the deferred BRIDGE_FLAGS attribute, where the rejection is currently
ignored.
This patch also changes drivers to make use of the "mask" field for edge
detection when possible.

br_switchdev_port_vlan_add
The ranges UAPI was introduced to the bridge in commit bdced7ef7838
("bridge: support for multiple vlans and vlan ranges in setlink and
dellink requests") (Jan 10 2015). But the VLAN ranges (parsed in br_afspec)
have always been passed one by one, through struct bridge_vlan_info
tmp_vinfo, to br_vlan_info. So the range never went too far in depth.
Then Scott Feldman introduced the switchdev_port_bridge_setlink function
in commit 47f8328bb1a4 ("switchdev: add new switchdev bridge setlink").
That marked the introduction of the SWITCHDEV_OBJ_PORT_VLAN, which made
full use of the range. But switchdev_port_bridge_setlink was called like
this:
br_setlink
-> br_afspec
-> switchdev_port_bridge_setlink
Basically, the switchdev and the bridge code were not tightly integrated.
Then commit 41c498b9359e ("bridge: restore br_setlink back to original")
came, and switchdev drivers were required to implement
.ndo_bridge_setlink = switchdev_port_bridge_setlink for a while.
In the meantime, commits such as 0944d6b5a2fa ("bridge: try switchdev op
first in __vlan_vid_add/del") finally made switchdev penetrate the
br_vlan_info() barrier and start to develop the call path we have today.
But remember, br_vlan_info() still receives VLANs one by one.
Then Arkadi Sharshevsky refactored the switchdev API in 2017 in commit
29ab586c3d83 ("net: switchdev: Remove bridge bypass support from
switchdev") so that drivers would not implement .ndo_bridge_setlink any
longer. The switchdev_port_bridge_setlink also got deleted.
This refactoring removed the parallel bridge_setlink implementation from
switchdev, and left the only switchdev VLAN objects to be the ones
offloaded from __vlan_vid_add (basically RX filtering) and __vlan_add
(the latter coming from commit 9c86ce2c1ae3 ("net: bridge: Notify about
bridge VLANs")).
That is to say, today the switchdev VLAN object ranges are not used in
the kernel. Refactoring the above call path is a bit complicated, when
the bridge VLAN call path is already a bit complicated.
Let's go off and finish the job of commit 29ab586c3d83 by deleting the
bogus iteration through the VLAN ranges from the drivers. Some aspects
of this feature never made too much sense in the first place. For
example, what is a range of VLANs all having the BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO_PVID
flag supposed to mean, when a port can obviously have a single pvid?
This particular configuration _is_ denied as of commit 6623c60dc28e
("bridge: vlan: enforce no pvid flag in vlan ranges"), but from an API
perspective, the driver still has to play pretend, and only offload the
vlan->vid_end as pvid. And the addition of a switchdev VLAN object can
modify the flags of another, completely unrelated, switchdev VLAN
object! (a VLAN that is PVID will invalidate the PVID flag from whatever
other VLAN had previously been offloaded with switchdev and had that
flag. Yet switchdev never notifies about that change, drivers are
supposed to guess).
Nonetheless, having a VLAN range in the API makes error handling look
scarier than it really is - unwinding on errors and all of that.
When in reality, no one really calls this API with more than one VLAN.
It is all unnecessary complexity.
And despite appearing pretentious (two-phase transactional model and
all), the switchdev API is really sloppy because the VLAN addition and
removal operations are not paired with one another (you can add a VLAN
100 times and delete it just once). The bridge notifies through
switchdev of a VLAN addition not only when the flags of an existing VLAN
change, but also when nothing changes. There are switchdev drivers out
there who don't like adding a VLAN that has already been added, and
those checks don't really belong at driver level. But the fact that the
API contains ranges is yet another factor that prevents this from being
addressed in the future.
Of the existing switchdev pieces of hardware, it appears that only
Mellanox Spectrum supports offloading more than one VLAN at a time,
through mlxsw_sp_port_vlan_set. I have kept that code internal to the
driver, because there is some more bookkeeping that makes use of it, but
I deleted it from the switchdev API. But since the switchdev support for
ranges has already been de facto deleted by a Mellanox employee and
nobody noticed for 4 years, I'm going to assume it's not a biggie.

net: bridge: switchdev: let drivers inform which bridge ports are offloaded
On reception of an skb, the bridge checks if it was marked as 'already
forwarded in hardware' (checks if skb->offload_fwd_mark == 1), and if it
is, it assigns the source hardware domain of that skb based on the
hardware domain of the ingress port. Then during forwarding, it enforces
that the egress port must have a different hardware domain than the
ingress one (this is done in nbp_switchdev_allowed_egress).
Non-switchdev drivers don't report any physical switch id (neither
through devlink nor .ndo_get_port_parent_id), therefore the bridge
assigns them a hardware domain of 0, and packets coming from them will
always have skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0. So there aren't any restrictions.
Problems appear due to the fact that DSA would like to perform software
fallback for bonding and team interfaces that the physical switch cannot
offload.

swp0 swp1 swp2 swp3 swp4
There, it is desirable that the presence of swp3 and swp4 under a
non-offloaded LAG does not preclude us from doing hardware bridging
beteen swp0, swp1 and swp2. The bandwidth of the CPU is often times high
enough that software bridging between {swp0,swp1,swp2} and bond0 is not
impractical.
But this creates an impossible paradox given the current way in which
port hardware domains are assigned. When the driver receives a packet
from swp0 (say, due to flooding), it must set skb->offload_fwd_mark to
something.
- If we set it to 0, then the bridge will forward it towards swp1, swp2
and bond0. But the switch has already forwarded it towards swp1 and
swp2 (not to bond0, remember, that isn't offloaded, so as far as the
switch is concerned, ports swp3 and swp4 are not looking up the FDB,
and the entire bond0 is a destination that is strictly behind the
CPU). But we don't want duplicated traffic towards swp1 and swp2, so
it's not ok to set skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0.
- If we set it to 1, then the bridge will not forward the skb towards
the ports with the same switchdev mark, i.e. not to swp1, swp2 and
bond0. Towards swp1 and swp2 that's ok, but towards bond0? It should
have forwarded the skb there.
So the real issue is that bond0 will be assigned the same hardware
domain as {swp0,swp1,swp2}, because the function that assigns hardware
domains to bridge ports, nbp_switchdev_add(), recurses through bond0's
lower interfaces until it finds something that implements devlink (calls
dev_get_port_parent_id with bool recurse = true). This is a problem
because the fact that bond0 can be offloaded by swp3 and swp4 in our
example is merely an assumption.
A solution is to give the bridge explicit hints as to what hardware
domain it should use for each port.
Currently, the bridging offload is very 'silent': a driver registers a
netdevice notifier, which is put on the netns's notifier chain, and
which sniffs around for NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER events where the upper is a
bridge, and the lower is an interface it knows about (one registered by
this driver, normally). Then, from within that notifier, it does a bunch
of stuff behind the bridge's back, without the bridge necessarily
knowing that there's somebody offloading that port. It looks like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v
call_netdevice_notifiers
|
v
dsa_slave_netdevice_event
|
v
oh, hey! it's for me!
|
v
.port_bridge_join
What we do to solve the conundrum is to be less silent, and change the
switchdev drivers to present themselves to the bridge. Something like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge: Aye! I'll use this
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ ppid as the
| | hardware domain for
v | this port, and zero
dsa_slave_netdevice_event | if I got nothing.
| |
v |
oh, hey! it's for me! |
| |
v |
.port_bridge_join |
| |
+------------------------+
switchdev_bridge_port_offload(swp0, swp0)
Then stacked interfaces (like bond0 on top of swp3/swp4) would be
treated differently in DSA, depending on whether we can or cannot
offload them.
The offload case:
ip link set bond0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge: Aye! I'll use this
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ ppid as the

v | bond0.
dsa_slave_netdevice_event | Coincidentally (or not),

a port with dp->lag_dev == bond0. |
| |
v |
.port_bridge_join |
for swp3 and swp4 |
| |
+------------------------+
switchdev_bridge_port_offload(bond0, swp3)
switchdev_bridge_port_offload(bond0, swp4)
And the non-offload case:
ip link set bond0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge waiting:
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ huh, switchdev_bridge_port_offload
| | wasn't called, okay, I'll use a
v | hwdom of zero for this one.
dsa_slave_netdevice_event : Then packets received on swp0 will
| : not be software-forwarded towards
v : swp1, but they will towards bond0.
it's not for me, but
bond0 is an upper of swp3
and swp4, but their dp->lag_dev
is NULL because they couldn't
offload it.
Basically we can draw the conclusion that the lowers of a bridge port
can come and go, so depending on the configuration of lowers for a
bridge port, it can dynamically toggle between offloaded and unoffloaded.
Therefore, we need an equivalent switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload too.
This patch changes the way any switchdev driver interacts with the
bridge. From now on, everybody needs to call switchdev_bridge_port_offload
and switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload, otherwise the bridge will treat the
port as non-offloaded and allow software flooding to other ports from
the same ASIC.
Note that these functions lay the ground for a more complex handshake
between switchdev drivers and the bridge in the future.
For drivers that will request a replay of the switchdev objects when
they offload and unoffload a bridge port (DSA, dpaa2-switch, ocelot), we
place the call to switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload() strategically inside
the NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER notifier's code path, and not inside
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER. This is because the switchdev object replay helpers
need the netdev adjacency lists to be valid, and that is only true in
NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER.

it's not for me, but
bond0 is an upper of swp3

offload it.
Basically we can draw the conclusion that the lowers of a bridge port
can come and go, so depending on the configuration of lowers for a
bridge port, it can dynamically toggle between offloaded and unoffloaded.
Therefore, we need an equivalent switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload too.
This patch changes the way any switchdev driver interacts with the
bridge. From now on, everybody needs to call switchdev_bridge_port_offload
and switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload, otherwise the bridge will treat the
port as non-offloaded and allow software flooding to other ports from
the same ASIC.
Note that these functions lay the ground for a more complex handshake
between switchdev drivers and the bridge in the future.
For drivers that will request a replay of the switchdev objects when
they offload and unoffload a bridge port (DSA, dpaa2-switch, ocelot), we
place the call to switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload() strategically inside
the NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER notifier's code path, and not inside
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER. This is because the switchdev object replay helpers
need the netdev adjacency lists to be valid, and that is only true in
NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER.

net: bridge: switchdev: let drivers inform which bridge ports are offloaded
On reception of an skb, the bridge checks if it was marked as 'already
forwarded in hardware' (checks if skb->offload_fwd_mark == 1), and if it
is, it assigns the source hardware domain of that skb based on the
hardware domain of the ingress port. Then during forwarding, it enforces
that the egress port must have a different hardware domain than the
ingress one (this is done in nbp_switchdev_allowed_egress).
Non-switchdev drivers don't report any physical switch id (neither
through devlink nor .ndo_get_port_parent_id), therefore the bridge
assigns them a hardware domain of 0, and packets coming from them will
always have skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0. So there aren't any restrictions.
Problems appear due to the fact that DSA would like to perform software
fallback for bonding and team interfaces that the physical switch cannot
offload.

swp0 swp1 swp2 swp3 swp4
There, it is desirable that the presence of swp3 and swp4 under a
non-offloaded LAG does not preclude us from doing hardware bridging
beteen swp0, swp1 and swp2. The bandwidth of the CPU is often times high
enough that software bridging between {swp0,swp1,swp2} and bond0 is not
impractical.
But this creates an impossible paradox given the current way in which
port hardware domains are assigned. When the driver receives a packet
from swp0 (say, due to flooding), it must set skb->offload_fwd_mark to
something.
- If we set it to 0, then the bridge will forward it towards swp1, swp2
and bond0. But the switch has already forwarded it towards swp1 and
swp2 (not to bond0, remember, that isn't offloaded, so as far as the
switch is concerned, ports swp3 and swp4 are not looking up the FDB,
and the entire bond0 is a destination that is strictly behind the
CPU). But we don't want duplicated traffic towards swp1 and swp2, so
it's not ok to set skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0.
- If we set it to 1, then the bridge will not forward the skb towards
the ports with the same switchdev mark, i.e. not to swp1, swp2 and
bond0. Towards swp1 and swp2 that's ok, but towards bond0? It should
have forwarded the skb there.
So the real issue is that bond0 will be assigned the same hardware
domain as {swp0,swp1,swp2}, because the function that assigns hardware
domains to bridge ports, nbp_switchdev_add(), recurses through bond0's
lower interfaces until it finds something that implements devlink (calls
dev_get_port_parent_id with bool recurse = true). This is a problem
because the fact that bond0 can be offloaded by swp3 and swp4 in our
example is merely an assumption.
A solution is to give the bridge explicit hints as to what hardware
domain it should use for each port.
Currently, the bridging offload is very 'silent': a driver registers a
netdevice notifier, which is put on the netns's notifier chain, and
which sniffs around for NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER events where the upper is a
bridge, and the lower is an interface it knows about (one registered by
this driver, normally). Then, from within that notifier, it does a bunch
of stuff behind the bridge's back, without the bridge necessarily
knowing that there's somebody offloading that port. It looks like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v
call_netdevice_notifiers
|
v
dsa_slave_netdevice_event
|
v
oh, hey! it's for me!
|
v
.port_bridge_join
What we do to solve the conundrum is to be less silent, and change the
switchdev drivers to present themselves to the bridge. Something like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()

Basically we can draw the conclusion that the lowers of a bridge port
can come and go, so depending on the configuration of lowers for a
bridge port, it can dynamically toggle between offloaded and unoffloaded.
Therefore, we need an equivalent switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload too.
This patch changes the way any switchdev driver interacts with the
bridge. From now on, everybody needs to call switchdev_bridge_port_offload
and switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload, otherwise the bridge will treat the
port as non-offloaded and allow software flooding to other ports from
the same ASIC.
Note that these functions lay the ground for a more complex handshake
between switchdev drivers and the bridge in the future.
For drivers that will request a replay of the switchdev objects when
they offload and unoffload a bridge port (DSA, dpaa2-switch, ocelot), we
place the call to switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload() strategically inside
the NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER notifier's code path, and not inside
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER. This is because the switchdev object replay helpers
need the netdev adjacency lists to be valid, and that is only true in
NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER.

net: bridge: switchdev: let drivers inform which bridge ports are offloaded
On reception of an skb, the bridge checks if it was marked as 'already
forwarded in hardware' (checks if skb->offload_fwd_mark == 1), and if it
is, it assigns the source hardware domain of that skb based on the
hardware domain of the ingress port. Then during forwarding, it enforces
that the egress port must have a different hardware domain than the
ingress one (this is done in nbp_switchdev_allowed_egress).
Non-switchdev drivers don't report any physical switch id (neither
through devlink nor .ndo_get_port_parent_id), therefore the bridge
assigns them a hardware domain of 0, and packets coming from them will
always have skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0. So there aren't any restrictions.
Problems appear due to the fact that DSA would like to perform software
fallback for bonding and team interfaces that the physical switch cannot
offload.

swp0 swp1 swp2 swp3 swp4
There, it is desirable that the presence of swp3 and swp4 under a
non-offloaded LAG does not preclude us from doing hardware bridging
beteen swp0, swp1 and swp2. The bandwidth of the CPU is often times high
enough that software bridging between {swp0,swp1,swp2} and bond0 is not
impractical.
But this creates an impossible paradox given the current way in which
port hardware domains are assigned. When the driver receives a packet
from swp0 (say, due to flooding), it must set skb->offload_fwd_mark to
something.
- If we set it to 0, then the bridge will forward it towards swp1, swp2
and bond0. But the switch has already forwarded it towards swp1 and
swp2 (not to bond0, remember, that isn't offloaded, so as far as the
switch is concerned, ports swp3 and swp4 are not looking up the FDB,
and the entire bond0 is a destination that is strictly behind the
CPU). But we don't want duplicated traffic towards swp1 and swp2, so
it's not ok to set skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0.
- If we set it to 1, then the bridge will not forward the skb towards
the ports with the same switchdev mark, i.e. not to swp1, swp2 and
bond0. Towards swp1 and swp2 that's ok, but towards bond0? It should
have forwarded the skb there.
So the real issue is that bond0 will be assigned the same hardware
domain as {swp0,swp1,swp2}, because the function that assigns hardware
domains to bridge ports, nbp_switchdev_add(), recurses through bond0's
lower interfaces until it finds something that implements devlink (calls
dev_get_port_parent_id with bool recurse = true). This is a problem
because the fact that bond0 can be offloaded by swp3 and swp4 in our
example is merely an assumption.
A solution is to give the bridge explicit hints as to what hardware
domain it should use for each port.
Currently, the bridging offload is very 'silent': a driver registers a
netdevice notifier, which is put on the netns's notifier chain, and
which sniffs around for NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER events where the upper is a
bridge, and the lower is an interface it knows about (one registered by
this driver, normally). Then, from within that notifier, it does a bunch
of stuff behind the bridge's back, without the bridge necessarily
knowing that there's somebody offloading that port. It looks like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v
call_netdevice_notifiers
|
v
dsa_slave_netdevice_event
|
v
oh, hey! it's for me!
|
v
.port_bridge_join
What we do to solve the conundrum is to be less silent, and change the
switchdev drivers to present themselves to the bridge. Something like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge: Aye! I'll use this

+------------------------+

Then stacked interfaces (like bond0 on top of swp3/swp4) would be
treated differently in DSA, depending on whether we can or cannot
offload them.

net: bridge: switchdev: let drivers inform which bridge ports are offloaded
On reception of an skb, the bridge checks if it was marked as 'already
forwarded in hardware' (checks if skb->offload_fwd_mark == 1), and if it
is, it assigns the source hardware domain of that skb based on the
hardware domain of the ingress port. Then during forwarding, it enforces
that the egress port must have a different hardware domain than the
ingress one (this is done in nbp_switchdev_allowed_egress).
Non-switchdev drivers don't report any physical switch id (neither
through devlink nor .ndo_get_port_parent_id), therefore the bridge
assigns them a hardware domain of 0, and packets coming from them will
always have skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0. So there aren't any restrictions.
Problems appear due to the fact that DSA would like to perform software
fallback for bonding and team interfaces that the physical switch cannot
offload.

swp0 swp1 swp2 swp3 swp4
There, it is desirable that the presence of swp3 and swp4 under a
non-offloaded LAG does not preclude us from doing hardware bridging
beteen swp0, swp1 and swp2. The bandwidth of the CPU is often times high
enough that software bridging between {swp0,swp1,swp2} and bond0 is not
impractical.
But this creates an impossible paradox given the current way in which
port hardware domains are assigned. When the driver receives a packet
from swp0 (say, due to flooding), it must set skb->offload_fwd_mark to
something.
- If we set it to 0, then the bridge will forward it towards swp1, swp2
and bond0. But the switch has already forwarded it towards swp1 and
swp2 (not to bond0, remember, that isn't offloaded, so as far as the
switch is concerned, ports swp3 and swp4 are not looking up the FDB,
and the entire bond0 is a destination that is strictly behind the
CPU). But we don't want duplicated traffic towards swp1 and swp2, so
it's not ok to set skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0.
- If we set it to 1, then the bridge will not forward the skb towards
the ports with the same switchdev mark, i.e. not to swp1, swp2 and
bond0. Towards swp1 and swp2 that's ok, but towards bond0? It should
have forwarded the skb there.
So the real issue is that bond0 will be assigned the same hardware
domain as {swp0,swp1,swp2}, because the function that assigns hardware
domains to bridge ports, nbp_switchdev_add(), recurses through bond0's
lower interfaces until it finds something that implements devlink (calls
dev_get_port_parent_id with bool recurse = true). This is a problem
because the fact that bond0 can be offloaded by swp3 and swp4 in our
example is merely an assumption.
A solution is to give the bridge explicit hints as to what hardware
domain it should use for each port.
Currently, the bridging offload is very 'silent': a driver registers a
netdevice notifier, which is put on the netns's notifier chain, and
which sniffs around for NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER events where the upper is a
bridge, and the lower is an interface it knows about (one registered by
this driver, normally). Then, from within that notifier, it does a bunch
of stuff behind the bridge's back, without the bridge necessarily
knowing that there's somebody offloading that port. It looks like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v
call_netdevice_notifiers
|
v
dsa_slave_netdevice_event
|
v
oh, hey! it's for me!
|
v
.port_bridge_join
What we do to solve the conundrum is to be less silent, and change the
switchdev drivers to present themselves to the bridge. Something like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge: Aye! I'll use this
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ ppid as the
| | hardware domain for
v | this port, and zero
dsa_slave_netdevice_event | if I got nothing.
| |
v |
oh, hey! it's for me! |
| |
v |
.port_bridge_join |
| |
+------------------------+
switchdev_bridge_port_offload(swp0, swp0)
Then stacked interfaces (like bond0 on top of swp3/swp4) would be
treated differently in DSA, depending on whether we can or cannot
offload them.
The offload case:
ip link set bond0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge: Aye! I'll use this
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ ppid as the

| |
v |

for swp3 and swp4 |
| |
+------------------------+
switchdev_bridge_port_offload(bond0, swp3)
switchdev_bridge_port_offload(bond0, swp4)
And the non-offload case:
ip link set bond0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge waiting:
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ huh, switchdev_bridge_port_offload
| | wasn't called, okay, I'll use a
v | hwdom of zero for this one.
dsa_slave_netdevice_event : Then packets received on swp0 will
| : not be software-forwarded towards
v : swp1, but they will towards bond0.
it's not for me, but
bond0 is an upper of swp3
and swp4, but their dp->lag_dev
is NULL because they couldn't
offload it.
Basically we can draw the conclusion that the lowers of a bridge port
can come and go, so depending on the configuration of lowers for a
bridge port, it can dynamically toggle between offloaded and unoffloaded.
Therefore, we need an equivalent switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload too.
This patch changes the way any switchdev driver interacts with the
bridge. From now on, everybody needs to call switchdev_bridge_port_offload
and switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload, otherwise the bridge will treat the
port as non-offloaded and allow software flooding to other ports from
the same ASIC.
Note that these functions lay the ground for a more complex handshake
between switchdev drivers and the bridge in the future.
For drivers that will request a replay of the switchdev objects when
they offload and unoffload a bridge port (DSA, dpaa2-switch, ocelot), we
place the call to switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload() strategically inside
the NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER notifier's code path, and not inside
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER. This is because the switchdev object replay helpers
need the netdev adjacency lists to be valid, and that is only true in
NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER.

net: bridge: move the switchdev object replay helpers to "push" mode
Starting with commit 4f2673b3a2b6 ("net: bridge: add helper to replay
port and host-joined mdb entries"), DSA has introduced some bridge
helpers that replay switchdev events (FDB/MDB/VLAN additions and
deletions) that can be lost by the switchdev drivers in a variety of
circumstances:
- an IP multicast group was host-joined on the bridge itself before any
switchdev port joined the bridge, leading to the host MDB entries
missing in the hardware database.
- during the bridge creation process, the MAC address of the bridge was
added to the FDB as an entry pointing towards the bridge device
itself, but with no switchdev ports being part of the bridge yet, this
local FDB entry would remain unknown to the switchdev hardware
database.
- a VLAN/FDB/MDB was added to a bridge port that is a LAG interface,
before any switchdev port joined that LAG, leading to the hardware
database missing those entries.
- a switchdev port left a LAG that is a bridge port, while the LAG
remained part of the bridge, and all FDB/MDB/VLAN entries remained
installed in the hardware database of the switchdev port.
Also, since commit 0d2cfbd41c4a ("net: bridge: ignore switchdev events
for LAG ports which didn't request replay"), DSA introduced a method,
based on a const void *ctx, to ensure that two switchdev ports under the
same LAG that is a bridge port do not see the same MDB/VLAN entry being
replayed twice by the bridge, once for every bridge port that joins the
LAG.
With so many ordering corner cases being possible, it seems unreasonable
to expect a switchdev driver writer to get it right from the first try.
Therefore, now that DSA has experimented with the bridge replay helpers
for a little bit, we can move the code to the bridge driver where it is
more readily available to all switchdev drivers.
To convert the switchdev object replay helpers from "pull mode" (where
the driver asks for them) to a "push mode" (where the bridge offers them
automatically), the biggest problem is that the bridge needs to be aware
when a switchdev port joins and leaves, even when the switchdev is only
indirectly a bridge port (for example when the bridge port is a LAG
upper of the switchdev).
Luckily, we already have a hook for that, in the form of the newly
introduced switchdev_bridge_port_offload() and
switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload() calls. These offer a natural place for
hooking the object addition and deletion replays.
Extend the above 2 functions with:
- pointers to the switchdev atomic notifier (for FDB replays) and the
blocking notifier (for MDB and VLAN replays).
- the "const void *ctx" argument required for drivers to be able to
disambiguate between which port is targeted, when multiple ports are
lowers of the same LAG that is a bridge port. Most of the drivers pass
NULL to this argument, except the ones that support LAG offload and have
the proper context check already in place in the switchdev blocking
notifier handler.
Also unexport the replay helpers, since nobody except the bridge calls
them directly now.
Note that:
(a) we abuse the terminology slightly, because FDB entries are not
"switchdev objects", but we count them as objects nonetheless.
With no direct way to prove it, I think they are not modeled as
switchdev objects because those can only be installed by the bridge
to the hardware (as opposed to FDB entries which can be propagated
in the other direction too). This is merely an abuse of terms, FDB
entries are replayed too, despite not being objects.
(b) the bridge does not attempt to sync port attributes to newly joined
ports, just the countable stuff (the objects). The reason for this
is simple: no universal and symmetric way to sync and unsync them is
known. For example, VLAN filtering: what to do on unsync, disable or
leave it enabled? Similarly, STP state, ageing timer, etc etc. What
a switchdev port does when it becomes standalone again is not really
up to the bridge's competence, and the driver should deal with it.
On the other hand, replaying deletions of switchdev objects can be
seen a matter of cleanup and therefore be treated by the bridge,
hence this patch.
We make the replay helpers opt-in for drivers, because they might not
bring immediate benefits for them:
- nbp_vlan_init() is called _after_ netdev_master_upper_dev_link(),
so br_vlan_replay() should not do anything for the new drivers on
which we call it. The existing drivers where there was even a slight
possibility for there to exist a VLAN on a bridge port before they
join it are already guarded against this: mlxsw and prestera deny
joining LAG interfaces that are members of a bridge.
- br_fdb_replay() should now notify of local FDB entries, but I patched
all drivers except DSA to ignore these new entries in commit
2c4eca3ef716 ("net: bridge: switchdev: include local flag in FDB
notifications"). Driver authors can lift this restriction as they
wish, and when they do, they can also opt into the FDB replay
functionality.
- br_mdb_replay() should fix a real issue which is described in commit
4f2673b3a2b6 ("net: bridge: add helper to replay port and host-joined
mdb entries"). However most drivers do not offload the
SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_HOST_MDB to see this issue: only cpsw and am65_cpsw
offload this switchdev object, and I don't completely understand the
way in which they offload this switchdev object anyway. So I'll leave
it up to these drivers' respective maintainers to opt into
br_mdb_replay().
So most of the drivers pass NULL notifier blocks for the replay helpers,
except:
- dpaa2-switch which was already acked/regression-tested with the
helpers enabled (and there isn't much of a downside in having them)
- ocelot which already had replay logic in "pull" mode
- DSA which already had replay logic in "pull" mode
An important observation is that the drivers which don't currently
request bridge event replays don't even have the
switchdev_bridge_port_{offload,unoffload} calls placed in proper places
right now. This was done to avoid unnecessary rework for drivers which
might never even add support for this. For driver writers who wish to
add replay support, this can be used as a tentative placement guide:

net: bridge: switchdev: replay the entire FDB for each port
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

helpers enabled (and there isn't much of a downside in having them)
- ocelot which already had replay logic in "pull" mode
- DSA which already had replay logic in "pull" mode
An important observation is that the drivers which don't currently
request bridge event replays don't even have the
switchdev_bridge_port_{offload,unoffload} calls placed in proper places
right now. This was done to avoid unnecessary rework for drivers which
might never even add support for this. For driver writers who wish to
add replay support, this can be used as a tentative placement guide:

net: bridge: switchdev: let drivers inform which bridge ports are offloaded
On reception of an skb, the bridge checks if it was marked as 'already
forwarded in hardware' (checks if skb->offload_fwd_mark == 1), and if it
is, it assigns the source hardware domain of that skb based on the
hardware domain of the ingress port. Then during forwarding, it enforces
that the egress port must have a different hardware domain than the
ingress one (this is done in nbp_switchdev_allowed_egress).
Non-switchdev drivers don't report any physical switch id (neither
through devlink nor .ndo_get_port_parent_id), therefore the bridge
assigns them a hardware domain of 0, and packets coming from them will
always have skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0. So there aren't any restrictions.
Problems appear due to the fact that DSA would like to perform software
fallback for bonding and team interfaces that the physical switch cannot
offload.

swp0 swp1 swp2 swp3 swp4
There, it is desirable that the presence of swp3 and swp4 under a
non-offloaded LAG does not preclude us from doing hardware bridging
beteen swp0, swp1 and swp2. The bandwidth of the CPU is often times high
enough that software bridging between {swp0,swp1,swp2} and bond0 is not
impractical.
But this creates an impossible paradox given the current way in which
port hardware domains are assigned. When the driver receives a packet
from swp0 (say, due to flooding), it must set skb->offload_fwd_mark to
something.
- If we set it to 0, then the bridge will forward it towards swp1, swp2
and bond0. But the switch has already forwarded it towards swp1 and
swp2 (not to bond0, remember, that isn't offloaded, so as far as the
switch is concerned, ports swp3 and swp4 are not looking up the FDB,
and the entire bond0 is a destination that is strictly behind the
CPU). But we don't want duplicated traffic towards swp1 and swp2, so
it's not ok to set skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0.
- If we set it to 1, then the bridge will not forward the skb towards
the ports with the same switchdev mark, i.e. not to swp1, swp2 and
bond0. Towards swp1 and swp2 that's ok, but towards bond0? It should
have forwarded the skb there.
So the real issue is that bond0 will be assigned the same hardware
domain as {swp0,swp1,swp2}, because the function that assigns hardware
domains to bridge ports, nbp_switchdev_add(), recurses through bond0's
lower interfaces until it finds something that implements devlink (calls
dev_get_port_parent_id with bool recurse = true). This is a problem
because the fact that bond0 can be offloaded by swp3 and swp4 in our
example is merely an assumption.
A solution is to give the bridge explicit hints as to what hardware
domain it should use for each port.
Currently, the bridging offload is very 'silent': a driver registers a
netdevice notifier, which is put on the netns's notifier chain, and
which sniffs around for NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER events where the upper is a
bridge, and the lower is an interface it knows about (one registered by
this driver, normally). Then, from within that notifier, it does a bunch
of stuff behind the bridge's back, without the bridge necessarily
knowing that there's somebody offloading that port. It looks like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v
call_netdevice_notifiers
|
v
dsa_slave_netdevice_event
|
v
oh, hey! it's for me!
|
v
.port_bridge_join
What we do to solve the conundrum is to be less silent, and change the
switchdev drivers to present themselves to the bridge. Something like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge: Aye! I'll use this
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ ppid as the

v |

| |

| |
+------------------------+
switchdev_bridge_port_offload(swp0, swp0)
Then stacked interfaces (like bond0 on top of swp3/swp4) would be
treated differently in DSA, depending on whether we can or cannot
offload them.
The offload case:
ip link set bond0 master br0

|
v bridge waiting:

dsa_slave_netdevice_event : Then packets received on swp0 will

v : swp1, but they will towards bond0.
it's not for me, but
bond0 is an upper of swp3
and swp4, but their dp->lag_dev
is NULL because they couldn't
offload it.
Basically we can draw the conclusion that the lowers of a bridge port
can come and go, so depending on the configuration of lowers for a
bridge port, it can dynamically toggle between offloaded and unoffloaded.
Therefore, we need an equivalent switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload too.
This patch changes the way any switchdev driver interacts with the
bridge. From now on, everybody needs to call switchdev_bridge_port_offload
and switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload, otherwise the bridge will treat the
port as non-offloaded and allow software flooding to other ports from
the same ASIC.
Note that these functions lay the ground for a more complex handshake
between switchdev drivers and the bridge in the future.
For drivers that will request a replay of the switchdev objects when
they offload and unoffload a bridge port (DSA, dpaa2-switch, ocelot), we
place the call to switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload() strategically inside
the NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER notifier's code path, and not inside
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER. This is because the switchdev object replay helpers
need the netdev adjacency lists to be valid, and that is only true in
NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER.

net: make switchdev_bridge_port_{,unoffload} loosely coupled with the bridge
With the introduction of explicit offloading API in switchdev in commit
2f5dc00f7a3e ("net: bridge: switchdev: let drivers inform which bridge
ports are offloaded"), we started having Ethernet switch drivers calling
directly into a function exported by net/bridge/br_switchdev.c, which is
a function exported by the bridge driver.
This means that drivers that did not have an explicit dependency on the
bridge before, like cpsw and am65-cpsw, now do - otherwise it is not
possible to call a symbol exported by a driver that can be built as
module unless you are a module too.
There was an attempt to solve the dependency issue in the form of commit
b0e81817629a ("net: build all switchdev drivers as modules when the
bridge is a module"). Grygorii Strashko, however, says about it:
| In my opinion, the problem is a bit bigger here than just fixing the
| build :(
|
| In case, of ^cpsw the switchdev mode is kinda optional and in many
| cases (especially for testing purposes, NFS) the multi-mac mode is
| still preferable mode.
|
| There were no such tight dependency between switchdev drivers and
| bridge core before and switchdev serviced as independent, notification
| based layer between them, so ^cpsw still can be "Y" and bridge can be
| "M". Now for mostly every kernel build configuration the CONFIG_BRIDGE
| will need to be set as "Y", or we will have to update drivers to
| support build with BRIDGE=n and maintain separate builds for
| networking vs non-networking testing. But is this enough? Wouldn't
| it cause 'chain reaction' required to add more and more "Y" options
| (like CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q)?
|
| PS. Just to be sure we on the same page - ARM builds will be forced
| (with this patch) to have CONFIG_TI_CPSW_SWITCHDEV=m and so all our
| automation testing will just fail with omap2plus_defconfig.
In the light of this, it would be desirable for some configurations to
avoid dependencies between switchdev drivers and the bridge, and have
the switchdev mode as completely optional within the driver.
Arnd Bergmann also tried to write a patch which better expressed the
build time dependency for Ethernet switch drivers where the switchdev
support is optional, like cpsw/am65-cpsw, and this made the drivers
follow the bridge (compile as module if the bridge is a module) only if
the optional switchdev support in the driver was enabled in the first
place:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20210802144813.1152762-1-arnd@kernel.org/
but this still did not solve the fact that cpsw and am65-cpsw now must
be built as modules when the bridge is a module - it just expressed
correctly that optional dependency. But the new behavior is an apparent
regression from Grygorii's perspective.
So to support the use case where the Ethernet driver is built-in,
NET_SWITCHDEV (a bool option) is enabled, and the bridge is a module, we
need a framework that can handle the possible absence of the bridge from
the running system, i.e. runtime bloatware as opposed to build-time
bloatware.
Luckily we already have this framework, since switchdev has been using
it extensively. Events from the bridge side are transmitted to the
driver side using notifier chains - this was originally done so that
unrelated drivers could snoop for events emitted by the bridge towards
ports that are implemented by other drivers (think of a switch driver
with LAG offload that listens for switchdev events on a bonding/team
interface that it offloads).
There are also events which are transmitted from the driver side to the
bridge side, which again are modeled using notifiers.
SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_BRIDGE is an example of this, and deals with
notifying the bridge that a MAC address has been dynamically learned.
So there is a precedent we can use for modeling the new framework.
The difference compared to SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_BRIDGE is that the work
that the bridge needs to do when a port becomes offloaded is blocking in
its nature: replay VLANs, MDBs etc. The calling context is indeed
blocking (we are under rtnl_mutex), but the existing switchdev
notification chain that the bridge is subscribed to is only the atomic
one. So we need to subscribe the bridge to the blocking switchdev
notification chain too.
This patch:
- keeps the driver-side perception of the switchdev_bridge_port_{,un}offload
unchanged
- moves the implementation of switchdev_bridge_port_{,un}offload from
the bridge module into the switchdev module.
- makes everybody that is subscribed to the switchdev blocking notifier
chain "hear" offload & unoffload events
- makes the bridge driver subscribe and handle those events
- moves the bridge driver's handling of those events into 2 new
functions called br_switchdev_port_{,un}offload. These functions
contain in fact the core of the logic that was previously in
switchdev_bridge_port_{,un}offload, just that now we go through an
extra indirection layer to reach them.
Unlike all the other switchdev notification structures, the structure
used to carry the bridge port information, struct
switchdev_notifier_brport_info, does not contain a "bool handled".
This is because in the current usage pattern, we always know that a
switchdev bridge port offloading event will be handled by the bridge,
because the switchdev_bridge_port_offload() call was initiated by a
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER event in the first place, where info->upper_dev is a
bridge. So if the bridge wasn't loaded, then the CHANGEUPPER event
couldn't have happened.

net: bridge: move the switchdev object replay helpers to "push" mode
Starting with commit 4f2673b3a2b6 ("net: bridge: add helper to replay
port and host-joined mdb entries"), DSA has introduced some bridge
helpers that replay switchdev events (FDB/MDB/VLAN additions and
deletions) that can be lost by the switchdev drivers in a variety of
circumstances:
- an IP multicast group was host-joined on the bridge itself before any
switchdev port joined the bridge, leading to the host MDB entries
missing in the hardware database.
- during the bridge creation process, the MAC address of the bridge was
added to the FDB as an entry pointing towards the bridge device
itself, but with no switchdev ports being part of the bridge yet, this
local FDB entry would remain unknown to the switchdev hardware
database.
- a VLAN/FDB/MDB was added to a bridge port that is a LAG interface,
before any switchdev port joined that LAG, leading to the hardware
database missing those entries.
- a switchdev port left a LAG that is a bridge port, while the LAG
remained part of the bridge, and all FDB/MDB/VLAN entries remained
installed in the hardware database of the switchdev port.
Also, since commit 0d2cfbd41c4a ("net: bridge: ignore switchdev events
for LAG ports which didn't request replay"), DSA introduced a method,
based on a const void *ctx, to ensure that two switchdev ports under the
same LAG that is a bridge port do not see the same MDB/VLAN entry being
replayed twice by the bridge, once for every bridge port that joins the
LAG.
With so many ordering corner cases being possible, it seems unreasonable
to expect a switchdev driver writer to get it right from the first try.
Therefore, now that DSA has experimented with the bridge replay helpers
for a little bit, we can move the code to the bridge driver where it is
more readily available to all switchdev drivers.
To convert the switchdev object replay helpers from "pull mode" (where
the driver asks for them) to a "push mode" (where the bridge offers them
automatically), the biggest problem is that the bridge needs to be aware
when a switchdev port joins and leaves, even when the switchdev is only
indirectly a bridge port (for example when the bridge port is a LAG
upper of the switchdev).
Luckily, we already have a hook for that, in the form of the newly
introduced switchdev_bridge_port_offload() and
switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload() calls. These offer a natural place for
hooking the object addition and deletion replays.
Extend the above 2 functions with:
- pointers to the switchdev atomic notifier (for FDB replays) and the
blocking notifier (for MDB and VLAN replays).
- the "const void *ctx" argument required for drivers to be able to
disambiguate between which port is targeted, when multiple ports are
lowers of the same LAG that is a bridge port. Most of the drivers pass
NULL to this argument, except the ones that support LAG offload and have
the proper context check already in place in the switchdev blocking
notifier handler.
Also unexport the replay helpers, since nobody except the bridge calls
them directly now.
Note that:
(a) we abuse the terminology slightly, because FDB entries are not
"switchdev objects", but we count them as objects nonetheless.
With no direct way to prove it, I think they are not modeled as
switchdev objects because those can only be installed by the bridge
to the hardware (as opposed to FDB entries which can be propagated
in the other direction too). This is merely an abuse of terms, FDB
entries are replayed too, despite not being objects.
(b) the bridge does not attempt to sync port attributes to newly joined
ports, just the countable stuff (the objects). The reason for this
is simple: no universal and symmetric way to sync and unsync them is
known. For example, VLAN filtering: what to do on unsync, disable or
leave it enabled? Similarly, STP state, ageing timer, etc etc. What
a switchdev port does when it becomes standalone again is not really
up to the bridge's competence, and the driver should deal with it.
On the other hand, replaying deletions of switchdev objects can be
seen a matter of cleanup and therefore be treated by the bridge,
hence this patch.
We make the replay helpers opt-in for drivers, because they might not
bring immediate benefits for them:
- nbp_vlan_init() is called _after_ netdev_master_upper_dev_link(),
so br_vlan_replay() should not do anything for the new drivers on
which we call it. The existing drivers where there was even a slight
possibility for there to exist a VLAN on a bridge port before they
join it are already guarded against this: mlxsw and prestera deny
joining LAG interfaces that are members of a bridge.
- br_fdb_replay() should now notify of local FDB entries, but I patched
all drivers except DSA to ignore these new entries in commit
2c4eca3ef716 ("net: bridge: switchdev: include local flag in FDB
notifications"). Driver authors can lift this restriction as they
wish, and when they do, they can also opt into the FDB replay
functionality.
- br_mdb_replay() should fix a real issue which is described in commit
4f2673b3a2b6 ("net: bridge: add helper to replay port and host-joined
mdb entries"). However most drivers do not offload the
SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_HOST_MDB to see this issue: only cpsw and am65_cpsw
offload this switchdev object, and I don't completely understand the
way in which they offload this switchdev object anyway. So I'll leave
it up to these drivers' respective maintainers to opt into
br_mdb_replay().
So most of the drivers pass NULL notifier blocks for the replay helpers,
except:
- dpaa2-switch which was already acked/regression-tested with the
helpers enabled (and there isn't much of a downside in having them)
- ocelot which already had replay logic in "pull" mode
- DSA which already had replay logic in "pull" mode
An important observation is that the drivers which don't currently
request bridge event replays don't even have the
switchdev_bridge_port_{offload,unoffload} calls placed in proper places
right now. This was done to avoid unnecessary rework for drivers which
might never even add support for this. For driver writers who wish to
add replay support, this can be used as a tentative placement guide:

net: bridge: switchdev: let drivers inform which bridge ports are offloaded
On reception of an skb, the bridge checks if it was marked as 'already
forwarded in hardware' (checks if skb->offload_fwd_mark == 1), and if it
is, it assigns the source hardware domain of that skb based on the
hardware domain of the ingress port. Then during forwarding, it enforces
that the egress port must have a different hardware domain than the
ingress one (this is done in nbp_switchdev_allowed_egress).
Non-switchdev drivers don't report any physical switch id (neither
through devlink nor .ndo_get_port_parent_id), therefore the bridge
assigns them a hardware domain of 0, and packets coming from them will
always have skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0. So there aren't any restrictions.
Problems appear due to the fact that DSA would like to perform software
fallback for bonding and team interfaces that the physical switch cannot
offload.

swp0 swp1 swp2 swp3 swp4
There, it is desirable that the presence of swp3 and swp4 under a
non-offloaded LAG does not preclude us from doing hardware bridging
beteen swp0, swp1 and swp2. The bandwidth of the CPU is often times high
enough that software bridging between {swp0,swp1,swp2} and bond0 is not
impractical.
But this creates an impossible paradox given the current way in which
port hardware domains are assigned. When the driver receives a packet
from swp0 (say, due to flooding), it must set skb->offload_fwd_mark to
something.
- If we set it to 0, then the bridge will forward it towards swp1, swp2
and bond0. But the switch has already forwarded it towards swp1 and
swp2 (not to bond0, remember, that isn't offloaded, so as far as the
switch is concerned, ports swp3 and swp4 are not looking up the FDB,
and the entire bond0 is a destination that is strictly behind the
CPU). But we don't want duplicated traffic towards swp1 and swp2, so
it's not ok to set skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0.
- If we set it to 1, then the bridge will not forward the skb towards
the ports with the same switchdev mark, i.e. not to swp1, swp2 and
bond0. Towards swp1 and swp2 that's ok, but towards bond0? It should
have forwarded the skb there.
So the real issue is that bond0 will be assigned the same hardware
domain as {swp0,swp1,swp2}, because the function that assigns hardware
domains to bridge ports, nbp_switchdev_add(), recurses through bond0's
lower interfaces until it finds something that implements devlink (calls
dev_get_port_parent_id with bool recurse = true). This is a problem
because the fact that bond0 can be offloaded by swp3 and swp4 in our
example is merely an assumption.
A solution is to give the bridge explicit hints as to what hardware
domain it should use for each port.
Currently, the bridging offload is very 'silent': a driver registers a
netdevice notifier, which is put on the netns's notifier chain, and
which sniffs around for NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER events where the upper is a
bridge, and the lower is an interface it knows about (one registered by
this driver, normally). Then, from within that notifier, it does a bunch
of stuff behind the bridge's back, without the bridge necessarily
knowing that there's somebody offloading that port. It looks like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v
call_netdevice_notifiers
|
v
dsa_slave_netdevice_event
|
v
oh, hey! it's for me!
|
v
.port_bridge_join
What we do to solve the conundrum is to be less silent, and change the
switchdev drivers to present themselves to the bridge. Something like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge: Aye! I'll use this
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ ppid as the
| | hardware domain for
v | this port, and zero

v |
oh, hey! it's for me! |
| |
v |
.port_bridge_join |
| |
+------------------------+
switchdev_bridge_port_offload(swp0, swp0)
Then stacked interfaces (like bond0 on top of swp3/swp4) would be
treated differently in DSA, depending on whether we can or cannot
offload them.
The offload case:
ip link set bond0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge: Aye! I'll use this
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ ppid as the

And the non-offload case:

br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge waiting:
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ huh, switchdev_bridge_port_offload

v | hwdom of zero for this one.
dsa_slave_netdevice_event : Then packets received on swp0 will

v : swp1, but they will towards bond0.
it's not for me, but
bond0 is an upper of swp3
and swp4, but their dp->lag_dev
is NULL because they couldn't
offload it.
Basically we can draw the conclusion that the lowers of a bridge port
can come and go, so depending on the configuration of lowers for a
bridge port, it can dynamically toggle between offloaded and unoffloaded.
Therefore, we need an equivalent switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload too.
This patch changes the way any switchdev driver interacts with the
bridge. From now on, everybody needs to call switchdev_bridge_port_offload
and switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload, otherwise the bridge will treat the
port as non-offloaded and allow software flooding to other ports from
the same ASIC.
Note that these functions lay the ground for a more complex handshake
between switchdev drivers and the bridge in the future.
For drivers that will request a replay of the switchdev objects when
they offload and unoffload a bridge port (DSA, dpaa2-switch, ocelot), we
place the call to switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload() strategically inside
the NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER notifier's code path, and not inside
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER. This is because the switchdev object replay helpers
need the netdev adjacency lists to be valid, and that is only true in
NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER.

net: make switchdev_bridge_port_{,unoffload} loosely coupled with the bridge
With the introduction of explicit offloading API in switchdev in commit
2f5dc00f7a3e ("net: bridge: switchdev: let drivers inform which bridge
ports are offloaded"), we started having Ethernet switch drivers calling
directly into a function exported by net/bridge/br_switchdev.c, which is
a function exported by the bridge driver.
This means that drivers that did not have an explicit dependency on the
bridge before, like cpsw and am65-cpsw, now do - otherwise it is not
possible to call a symbol exported by a driver that can be built as
module unless you are a module too.
There was an attempt to solve the dependency issue in the form of commit
b0e81817629a ("net: build all switchdev drivers as modules when the
bridge is a module"). Grygorii Strashko, however, says about it:
| In my opinion, the problem is a bit bigger here than just fixing the
| build :(
|
| In case, of ^cpsw the switchdev mode is kinda optional and in many
| cases (especially for testing purposes, NFS) the multi-mac mode is
| still preferable mode.
|
| There were no such tight dependency between switchdev drivers and
| bridge core before and switchdev serviced as independent, notification
| based layer between them, so ^cpsw still can be "Y" and bridge can be
| "M". Now for mostly every kernel build configuration the CONFIG_BRIDGE
| will need to be set as "Y", or we will have to update drivers to
| support build with BRIDGE=n and maintain separate builds for
| networking vs non-networking testing. But is this enough? Wouldn't
| it cause 'chain reaction' required to add more and more "Y" options
| (like CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q)?
|
| PS. Just to be sure we on the same page - ARM builds will be forced
| (with this patch) to have CONFIG_TI_CPSW_SWITCHDEV=m and so all our
| automation testing will just fail with omap2plus_defconfig.
In the light of this, it would be desirable for some configurations to
avoid dependencies between switchdev drivers and the bridge, and have
the switchdev mode as completely optional within the driver.
Arnd Bergmann also tried to write a patch which better expressed the
build time dependency for Ethernet switch drivers where the switchdev
support is optional, like cpsw/am65-cpsw, and this made the drivers
follow the bridge (compile as module if the bridge is a module) only if
the optional switchdev support in the driver was enabled in the first
place:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20210802144813.1152762-1-arnd@kernel.org/
but this still did not solve the fact that cpsw and am65-cpsw now must
be built as modules when the bridge is a module - it just expressed
correctly that optional dependency. But the new behavior is an apparent
regression from Grygorii's perspective.
So to support the use case where the Ethernet driver is built-in,
NET_SWITCHDEV (a bool option) is enabled, and the bridge is a module, we
need a framework that can handle the possible absence of the bridge from
the running system, i.e. runtime bloatware as opposed to build-time
bloatware.
Luckily we already have this framework, since switchdev has been using
it extensively. Events from the bridge side are transmitted to the
driver side using notifier chains - this was originally done so that
unrelated drivers could snoop for events emitted by the bridge towards
ports that are implemented by other drivers (think of a switch driver
with LAG offload that listens for switchdev events on a bonding/team
interface that it offloads).
There are also events which are transmitted from the driver side to the
bridge side, which again are modeled using notifiers.
SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_BRIDGE is an example of this, and deals with
notifying the bridge that a MAC address has been dynamically learned.
So there is a precedent we can use for modeling the new framework.
The difference compared to SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_BRIDGE is that the work
that the bridge needs to do when a port becomes offloaded is blocking in
its nature: replay VLANs, MDBs etc. The calling context is indeed
blocking (we are under rtnl_mutex), but the existing switchdev
notification chain that the bridge is subscribed to is only the atomic
one. So we need to subscribe the bridge to the blocking switchdev
notification chain too.
This patch:
- keeps the driver-side perception of the switchdev_bridge_port_{,un}offload
unchanged
- moves the implementation of switchdev_bridge_port_{,un}offload from
the bridge module into the switchdev module.
- makes everybody that is subscribed to the switchdev blocking notifier
chain "hear" offload & unoffload events
- makes the bridge driver subscribe and handle those events
- moves the bridge driver's handling of those events into 2 new
functions called br_switchdev_port_{,un}offload. These functions
contain in fact the core of the logic that was previously in
switchdev_bridge_port_{,un}offload, just that now we go through an
extra indirection layer to reach them.
Unlike all the other switchdev notification structures, the structure
used to carry the bridge port information, struct
switchdev_notifier_brport_info, does not contain a "bool handled".
This is because in the current usage pattern, we always know that a
switchdev bridge port offloading event will be handled by the bridge,
because the switchdev_bridge_port_offload() call was initiated by a
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER event in the first place, where info->upper_dev is a
bridge. So if the bridge wasn't loaded, then the CHANGEUPPER event
couldn't have happened.

net: bridge: move the switchdev object replay helpers to "push" mode
Starting with commit 4f2673b3a2b6 ("net: bridge: add helper to replay
port and host-joined mdb entries"), DSA has introduced some bridge
helpers that replay switchdev events (FDB/MDB/VLAN additions and
deletions) that can be lost by the switchdev drivers in a variety of
circumstances:
- an IP multicast group was host-joined on the bridge itself before any
switchdev port joined the bridge, leading to the host MDB entries
missing in the hardware database.
- during the bridge creation process, the MAC address of the bridge was
added to the FDB as an entry pointing towards the bridge device
itself, but with no switchdev ports being part of the bridge yet, this
local FDB entry would remain unknown to the switchdev hardware
database.
- a VLAN/FDB/MDB was added to a bridge port that is a LAG interface,
before any switchdev port joined that LAG, leading to the hardware
database missing those entries.
- a switchdev port left a LAG that is a bridge port, while the LAG
remained part of the bridge, and all FDB/MDB/VLAN entries remained
installed in the hardware database of the switchdev port.
Also, since commit 0d2cfbd41c4a ("net: bridge: ignore switchdev events
for LAG ports which didn't request replay"), DSA introduced a method,
based on a const void *ctx, to ensure that two switchdev ports under the
same LAG that is a bridge port do not see the same MDB/VLAN entry being
replayed twice by the bridge, once for every bridge port that joins the
LAG.
With so many ordering corner cases being possible, it seems unreasonable
to expect a switchdev driver writer to get it right from the first try.
Therefore, now that DSA has experimented with the bridge replay helpers
for a little bit, we can move the code to the bridge driver where it is
more readily available to all switchdev drivers.
To convert the switchdev object replay helpers from "pull mode" (where
the driver asks for them) to a "push mode" (where the bridge offers them
automatically), the biggest problem is that the bridge needs to be aware
when a switchdev port joins and leaves, even when the switchdev is only
indirectly a bridge port (for example when the bridge port is a LAG
upper of the switchdev).
Luckily, we already have a hook for that, in the form of the newly
introduced switchdev_bridge_port_offload() and
switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload() calls. These offer a natural place for
hooking the object addition and deletion replays.
Extend the above 2 functions with:
- pointers to the switchdev atomic notifier (for FDB replays) and the
blocking notifier (for MDB and VLAN replays).
- the "const void *ctx" argument required for drivers to be able to
disambiguate between which port is targeted, when multiple ports are
lowers of the same LAG that is a bridge port. Most of the drivers pass
NULL to this argument, except the ones that support LAG offload and have
the proper context check already in place in the switchdev blocking
notifier handler.
Also unexport the replay helpers, since nobody except the bridge calls
them directly now.
Note that:
(a) we abuse the terminology slightly, because FDB entries are not
"switchdev objects", but we count them as objects nonetheless.
With no direct way to prove it, I think they are not modeled as
switchdev objects because those can only be installed by the bridge
to the hardware (as opposed to FDB entries which can be propagated
in the other direction too). This is merely an abuse of terms, FDB
entries are replayed too, despite not being objects.
(b) the bridge does not attempt to sync port attributes to newly joined
ports, just the countable stuff (the objects). The reason for this
is simple: no universal and symmetric way to sync and unsync them is
known. For example, VLAN filtering: what to do on unsync, disable or
leave it enabled? Similarly, STP state, ageing timer, etc etc. What
a switchdev port does when it becomes standalone again is not really
up to the bridge's competence, and the driver should deal with it.
On the other hand, replaying deletions of switchdev objects can be
seen a matter of cleanup and therefore be treated by the bridge,
hence this patch.
We make the replay helpers opt-in for drivers, because they might not
bring immediate benefits for them:
- nbp_vlan_init() is called _after_ netdev_master_upper_dev_link(),
so br_vlan_replay() should not do anything for the new drivers on
which we call it. The existing drivers where there was even a slight
possibility for there to exist a VLAN on a bridge port before they
join it are already guarded against this: mlxsw and prestera deny
joining LAG interfaces that are members of a bridge.
- br_fdb_replay() should now notify of local FDB entries, but I patched
all drivers except DSA to ignore these new entries in commit
2c4eca3ef716 ("net: bridge: switchdev: include local flag in FDB
notifications"). Driver authors can lift this restriction as they
wish, and when they do, they can also opt into the FDB replay
functionality.
- br_mdb_replay() should fix a real issue which is described in commit
4f2673b3a2b6 ("net: bridge: add helper to replay port and host-joined
mdb entries"). However most drivers do not offload the
SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_HOST_MDB to see this issue: only cpsw and am65_cpsw
offload this switchdev object, and I don't completely understand the
way in which they offload this switchdev object anyway. So I'll leave
it up to these drivers' respective maintainers to opt into
br_mdb_replay().
So most of the drivers pass NULL notifier blocks for the replay helpers,
except:
- dpaa2-switch which was already acked/regression-tested with the
helpers enabled (and there isn't much of a downside in having them)
- ocelot which already had replay logic in "pull" mode
- DSA which already had replay logic in "pull" mode
An important observation is that the drivers which don't currently
request bridge event replays don't even have the
switchdev_bridge_port_{offload,unoffload} calls placed in proper places
right now. This was done to avoid unnecessary rework for drivers which
might never even add support for this. For driver writers who wish to
add replay support, this can be used as a tentative placement guide:

net: bridge: switchdev: let drivers inform which bridge ports are offloaded
On reception of an skb, the bridge checks if it was marked as 'already
forwarded in hardware' (checks if skb->offload_fwd_mark == 1), and if it
is, it assigns the source hardware domain of that skb based on the
hardware domain of the ingress port. Then during forwarding, it enforces
that the egress port must have a different hardware domain than the
ingress one (this is done in nbp_switchdev_allowed_egress).
Non-switchdev drivers don't report any physical switch id (neither
through devlink nor .ndo_get_port_parent_id), therefore the bridge
assigns them a hardware domain of 0, and packets coming from them will
always have skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0. So there aren't any restrictions.
Problems appear due to the fact that DSA would like to perform software
fallback for bonding and team interfaces that the physical switch cannot
offload.

swp0 swp1 swp2 swp3 swp4
There, it is desirable that the presence of swp3 and swp4 under a
non-offloaded LAG does not preclude us from doing hardware bridging
beteen swp0, swp1 and swp2. The bandwidth of the CPU is often times high
enough that software bridging between {swp0,swp1,swp2} and bond0 is not
impractical.
But this creates an impossible paradox given the current way in which
port hardware domains are assigned. When the driver receives a packet
from swp0 (say, due to flooding), it must set skb->offload_fwd_mark to
something.
- If we set it to 0, then the bridge will forward it towards swp1, swp2
and bond0. But the switch has already forwarded it towards swp1 and
swp2 (not to bond0, remember, that isn't offloaded, so as far as the
switch is concerned, ports swp3 and swp4 are not looking up the FDB,
and the entire bond0 is a destination that is strictly behind the
CPU). But we don't want duplicated traffic towards swp1 and swp2, so
it's not ok to set skb->offload_fwd_mark = 0.
- If we set it to 1, then the bridge will not forward the skb towards
the ports with the same switchdev mark, i.e. not to swp1, swp2 and
bond0. Towards swp1 and swp2 that's ok, but towards bond0? It should
have forwarded the skb there.
So the real issue is that bond0 will be assigned the same hardware
domain as {swp0,swp1,swp2}, because the function that assigns hardware
domains to bridge ports, nbp_switchdev_add(), recurses through bond0's
lower interfaces until it finds something that implements devlink (calls
dev_get_port_parent_id with bool recurse = true). This is a problem
because the fact that bond0 can be offloaded by swp3 and swp4 in our
example is merely an assumption.
A solution is to give the bridge explicit hints as to what hardware
domain it should use for each port.
Currently, the bridging offload is very 'silent': a driver registers a
netdevice notifier, which is put on the netns's notifier chain, and
which sniffs around for NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER events where the upper is a
bridge, and the lower is an interface it knows about (one registered by
this driver, normally). Then, from within that notifier, it does a bunch
of stuff behind the bridge's back, without the bridge necessarily
knowing that there's somebody offloading that port. It looks like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v
call_netdevice_notifiers
|
v
dsa_slave_netdevice_event
|
v
oh, hey! it's for me!
|
v
.port_bridge_join
What we do to solve the conundrum is to be less silent, and change the
switchdev drivers to present themselves to the bridge. Something like this:
ip link set swp0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge: Aye! I'll use this
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ ppid as the
| | hardware domain for
v | this port, and zero
dsa_slave_netdevice_event | if I got nothing.
| |
v |
oh, hey! it's for me! |
| |
v |
.port_bridge_join |
| |
+------------------------+
switchdev_bridge_port_offload(swp0, swp0)
Then stacked interfaces (like bond0 on top of swp3/swp4) would be
treated differently in DSA, depending on whether we can or cannot
offload them.
The offload case:
ip link set bond0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge: Aye! I'll use this
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ ppid as the

| |
v |
.port_bridge_join |
for swp3 and swp4 |
| |
+------------------------+
switchdev_bridge_port_offload(bond0, swp3)
switchdev_bridge_port_offload(bond0, swp4)
And the non-offload case:
ip link set bond0 master br0
|
v
br_add_if() calls netdev_master_upper_dev_link()
|
v bridge waiting:
call_netdevice_notifiers ^ huh, switchdev_bridge_port_offload
| | wasn't called, okay, I'll use a
v | hwdom of zero for this one.
dsa_slave_netdevice_event : Then packets received on swp0 will
| : not be software-forwarded towards
v : swp1, but they will towards bond0.
it's not for me, but
bond0 is an upper of swp3
and swp4, but their dp->lag_dev
is NULL because they couldn't
offload it.
Basically we can draw the conclusion that the lowers of a bridge port
can come and go, so depending on the configuration of lowers for a
bridge port, it can dynamically toggle between offloaded and unoffloaded.
Therefore, we need an equivalent switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload too.
This patch changes the way any switchdev driver interacts with the
bridge. From now on, everybody needs to call switchdev_bridge_port_offload
and switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload, otherwise the bridge will treat the
port as non-offloaded and allow software flooding to other ports from
the same ASIC.
Note that these functions lay the ground for a more complex handshake
between switchdev drivers and the bridge in the future.
For drivers that will request a replay of the switchdev objects when
they offload and unoffload a bridge port (DSA, dpaa2-switch, ocelot), we
place the call to switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload() strategically inside
the NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER notifier's code path, and not inside
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER. This is because the switchdev object replay helpers
need the netdev adjacency lists to be valid, and that is only true in
NETDEV_PRECHANGEUPPER.
