Nikolay Aleksandrov 8dc350202d net: bridge: optimize backup_port fdb convergence
We can optimize the fdb convergence when a backup_port is present by not
immediately flushing the entries of the stopped port since traffic for
those entries will flow towards the backup_port.

There are 2 cases specifically that benefit most:
- when the stopped port comes up before the entries expire by themselves
- when there's an external entry refresh and they're kept while the
  backup_port is operating (e.g. mlag)

Nikolay Aleksandrov 9289906313 net: bridge: add notifications for the bridge dev on vlan change
Currently the bridge device doesn't generate any notifications upon vlan
modifications on itself because it doesn't use the generic bridge
notifications.
With the recent changes we know if anything was modified in the vlan config
thus we can generate a notification when necessary for the bridge device
so add support to br_ifinfo_notify() similar to how other combined
functions are done - if port is present it takes precedence, otherwise
notify about the bridge. I've explicitly marked the locations where the
notification should be always for the port by setting bridge to NULL.
I've also taken the liberty to rearrange each modified function's local
variables in reverse xmas tree as well.

Nikolay Aleksandrov aeb073241f net: bridge: start hello timer only if device is up
When the transition of NO_STP -> KERNEL_STP was fixed by always calling
mod_timer in br_stp_start, it introduced a new regression which causes
the timer to be armed even when the bridge is down, and since we stop
the timers in its ndo_stop() function, they never get disabled if the
device is destroyed before it's upped.

To reproduce:
$ while :; do ip l add br0 type bridge hello_time 100; brctl stp br0 on;
ip l del br0; done;

Ivan Vecera bd080488a6 bridge: fix hello and hold timers starting/stopping
Current bridge code incorrectly handles starting/stopping of hello and
hold timers during STP enable/disable.

1. Timers are stopped in br_stp_start() during NO_STP->USER_STP
   transition. The timers are already stopped in NO_STP state so
   this is confusing no-op.

2. During USER_STP->NO_STP transition the timers are started. This
   does not make sense and is confusion because the timer should not be
   active in NO_STP state.

Xin Long 6d18c732b9 bridge: start hello_timer when enabling KERNEL_STP in br_stp_start
Since commit 76b91c32dd ("bridge: stp: when using userspace stp stop
kernel hello and hold timers"), bridge would not start hello_timer if
stp_enabled is not KERNEL_STP when br_dev_open.

The problem is even if users set stp_enabled with KERNEL_STP later,
the timer will still not be started. It causes that KERNEL_STP can
not really work. Users have to re-ifup the bridge to avoid this.

This patch is to fix it by starting br->hello_timer when enabling
KERNEL_STP in br_stp_start.

As an improvement, it's also to start hello_timer again only when
br->stp_enabled is KERNEL_STP in br_hello_timer_expired, there is
no reason to start the timer again when it's NO_STP.

Nikolay Aleksandrov f7cdee8a79 bridge: move to workqueue gc
Move the fdb garbage collector to a workqueue which fires at least 10
milliseconds apart and cleans chain by chain allowing for other tasks
to run in the meantime. When having thousands of fdbs the system is much
more responsive. Most importantly remove the need to check if the
matched entry has expired in __br_fdb_get that causes false-sharing and
is completely unnecessary if we cleanup entries, at worst we'll get 10ms
of traffic for that entry before it gets deleted.

Vivien Didelot 308433155a net: bridge: add helper to call /sbin/bridge-stp
If /sbin/bridge-stp is available on the system, bridge tries to execute
it instead of the kernel implementation when starting/stopping STP.

If anything goes wrong with /sbin/bridge-stp, bridge silently falls back
to kernel STP, making hard to debug userspace STP.

This patch adds a br_stp_call_user helper to start/stop userspace STP
and debug errors from the program: abnormal exit status is stored in the
lower byte and normal exit status is stored in higher byte.

Below is a simple example on a kernel with dynamic debug enabled:

    # ln -s /bin/false /sbin/bridge-stp
    # brctl stp br0 on
    br0: failed to start userspace STP (256)
    # dmesg
    br0: /sbin/bridge-stp exited with code 1
    br0: failed to start userspace STP (256)

Ido Schimmel 6ff64f6f92 switchdev: Pass original device to port netdev driver
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.

Nikolay Aleksandrov 76b91c32dd bridge: stp: when using userspace stp stop kernel hello and hold timers
These should be handled only by the respective STP which is in control.
They become problematic for devices with limited resources with many
ports because the hold_timer is per port and fires each second and the
hello timer fires each 2 seconds even though it's global. While in
user-space STP mode these timers are completely unnecessary so it's better
to keep them off.
Also ensure that when the bridge is up these timers are started only when
running with kernel STP.

Toshiaki Makita a4b816d8ba bridge: Change local fdb entries whenever mac address of bridge device changes
Vlan code may need fdb change when changing mac address of bridge device
even if it is caused by the mac address changing of a bridge port.

Example configuration:
  ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
  ip link set eth1 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
  brctl addif br0 eth0
  brctl addif br0 eth1 # br0 will have mac address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
  bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 10 self
  bridge vlan add dev eth0 vid 10
We will have fdb entry such that f->dst == NULL, f->vlan_id == 10 and
f->addr == 12:34:56:78:90:ab at this time.
Next, change the mac address of eth0 to greater value.
  ip link set eth0 address ee:ff:12:34:56:78
Then, mac address of br0 will be recalculated and set to aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff.
However, an entry aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff will not be created and we will be not
able to communicate using br0 on vlan 10.

Address this issue by deleting and adding local entries whenever
changing the mac address of the bridge device.

If there already exists an entry that has the same address, for example,
in case that br_fdb_changeaddr() has already inserted it,
br_fdb_change_mac_address() will simply fail to insert it and no
duplicated entry will be made, as it was.

This approach also needs br_add_if() to call br_fdb_insert() before
br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id() so that we don't create an entry whose
dst == NULL in this function to preserve previous behavior.

Note that this is a slight change in behavior where the bridge device can
receive the traffic to the new address before calling
br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id() in br_add_if().
However, it is not a problem because we have already the address on the
new port and such a way to insert new one before recalculating bridge id
is taken in br_device_event() as well.

At some point limits were added to forward_delay.  However, the
limits are only enforced when STP is enabled.  This created a
scenario where you could have a value outside the allowed range
while STP is disabled, which then stuck around even after STP
is enabled.

This patch fixes this by clamping the value when we enable STP.

I had to move the locking around a bit to ensure that there is
no window where someone could insert a value outside the range
while we're in the middle of enabling STP.

Note:
1. It does NOT enforce the restriction on the relationship max_age and
   forward delay or hello time because in existing implementation these are
   set as independant operations.

2. If STP is disabled, there is no restriction on forward delay

3. No restriction on holding time because users use Linux code to act

4. Although standard allow 0-255, Linux only allows 0-63 for port priority
   because more bits are reserved for port number.

stephen hemminger edf947f100 bridge: notify applications if address of bridge device changes
The mac address of the bridge device may be changed when a new interface
is added to the bridge. If this happens, then the bridge needs to call
the network notifiers to tickle any other systems that care. Since bridge
can be a module, this also means exporting the notifier function.

Use one set of macro's for all bridge messages.

Note: can't use netdev_XXX macro's because bridge is purely
virtual and has no device parent.

Stephen Hemminger 92c0574f11 bridge: make bridge address settings sticky
Normally, the bridge just chooses the smallest mac address as the
bridge id and mac address of bridge device. But if the administrator
has explictly set the interface address then don't change it.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 86313c488a usermodehelper: Tidy up waiting
Rather than using a tri-state integer for the wait flag in
call_usermodehelper_exec, define a proper enum, and use that.  I've
preserved the integer values so that any callers I've missed should
still work OK.

Stephen Hemminger 9cde070874 bridge: add support for user mode STP
This patchset based on work by Aji_Srinivas@emc.com provides allows
spanning tree to be controled from userspace.  Like hotplug, it
uses call_usermodehelper when spanning tree is enabled so there
is no visible API change. If call to start usermode STP fails
it falls back to existing kernel STP.

passed are 2-bytes aligned in memory.

This is not true for br_stp_change_bridge_id() and
br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id() in which one of the addresses
is unsigned char *, and thus may not be 2-bytes aligned.
