switchdev_port_fwd_mark_set() is used to set the 'offload_fwd_mark' of
port netdevs so that packets being flooded by the device won't be
flooded twice.
It works by assigning a unique identifier (the ifindex of the first
bridge port) to bridge ports sharing the same parent ID. This prevents
packets from being flooded twice by the same switch, but will flood
packets through bridge ports belonging to a different switch.
This method is problematic when stacked devices are taken into account,
such as VLANs. In such cases, a physical port netdev can have upper
devices being members in two different bridges, thus requiring two
different 'offload_fwd_mark's to be configured on the port netdev, which
is impossible.
The main problem is that packet and netdev marking is performed at the
physical netdev level, whereas flooding occurs between bridge ports,
which are not necessarily port netdevs.
Instead, packet and netdev marking should really be done in the bridge
driver with the switch driver only telling it which packets it already
forwarded. The bridge driver will mark such packets using the mark
assigned to the ingress bridge port and will prevent the packet from
being forwarded through any bridge port sharing the same mark (i.e.
having the same parent ID).
Remove the current switchdev 'offload_fwd_mark' implementation and
instead implement the proposed method. In addition, make rocker - the
sole user of the mark - use the proposed method.

Eric reports build failure with
CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER=n
We insist to build br_nf_core.o unconditionally, but we must only do so
if br_netfilter was enabled, else it fails to build due to
functions being defined to empty stubs (and some structure members
being defined out).
Also, BRIDGE_NETFILTER=y|m makes no sense when BRIDGE=n.

Jesper reported that br_netfilter always registers the hooks since
this is part of the bridge core. This harms performance for people that
don't need this.
This patch modularizes br_netfilter so it can be rmmod'ed, thus,
the hooks can be unregistered. I think the bridge netfilter should have
been a separated module since the beginning, Patrick agreed on that.
Note that this is breaking compatibility for users that expect that
bridge netfilter is going to be available after explicitly 'modprobe
bridge' or via automatic load through brctl.
However, the damage can be easily undone by modprobing br_netfilter.
The bridge core also spots a message to provide a clue to people that
didn't notice that this has been deprecated.
On top of that, the plan is that nftables will not rely on this software
layer, but integrate the connection tracking into the bridge layer to
enable stateful filtering and NAT, which is was bridge netfilter users
seem to require.
This patch still keeps the fake_dst_ops in the bridge core, since this
is required by when the bridge port is initialized. So we can safely
modprobe/rmmod br_netfilter anytime.

Before f5efc69 ("netfilter: nf_tables: Add meta expression key for
bridge interface name"), the entire net/bridge/netfilter/ directory
depended on BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES, ie. on ebtables. However, that
directory already contained the nf_tables bridge extension that
we should allow to compile separately. In f5efc69, we tried to
generalize this by using CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER which was not a good
idea since this option already existed and it is dedicated to enable
the Netfilter bridge IP/ARP filtering.
Let's try to fix this mess by:
1) making net/bridge/netfilter/ dependent on the toplevel
CONFIG_NETFILTER option, just like we do with the net/netfilter and
net/ipv{4,6}/netfilter/ directories.
2) Changing 'selects' to 'depends on' NETFILTER_XTABLES for
BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES. I believe this problem was already before
f5efc69:
warning: (BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES) selects NETFILTER_XTABLES which has
unmet direct dependencies (NET && INET && NETFILTER)
3) Fix ebtables/nf_tables bridge dependencies by making NF_TABLES_BRIDGE
and BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES dependent on BRIDGE and NETFILTER:
warning: (NF_TABLES_BRIDGE && BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES) selects
BRIDGE_NETFILTER which has unmet direct dependencies (NET && BRIDGE &&
NETFILTER && INET && NETFILTER_ADVANCED)

Adds an optional infrustructure component to bridge that would allow
native vlan filtering in the bridge. Each bridge port (as well
as the bridge device) now get a VLAN bitmap. Each bit in the bitmap
is associated with a vlan id. This way if the bit corresponding to
the vid is set in the bitmap that the packet with vid is allowed to
enter and exit the port.
Write access the bitmap is protected by RTNL and read access
protected by RCU.
Vlan functionality is disabled by default.

This patch exports bridge multicast database via netlink
message type RTM_GETMDB. Similar to fdb, but currently bridge-specific.
We may need to support modify multicast database too (RTM_{ADD,DEL}MDB).

This patch adds the core functionality of IGMP snooping support
without actually hooking it up. So this patch should be a no-op
as far as the bridge's external behaviour is concerned.
All the new code and data is controlled by the Kconfig option
BRIDGE_IGMP_SNOOPING. A run-time toggle is also available.
The multicast switching is done using an hash table that is
lockless on the read-side through RCU. On the write-side the
new multicast_lock is used for all operations. The hash table
supports dynamic growth/rehashing.
The hash table will be rehashed if any chain length exceeds a
preset limit. If rehashing does not reduce the maximum chain
length then snooping will be disabled.
These features may be added in future (in no particular order):
* IGMPv3 source support
* Non-querier router detection
* IPv6

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
