Implement support for processing the IOAM Pre-allocated Trace with IPv6, see [1] and [2]. Introduce a new IPv6 Hop-by-Hop TLV option, see IANA [3]. A new per-interface sysctl is introduced. The value is a boolean to accept (=1) or ignore (=0, by default) IPv6 IOAM options on ingress for an interface: - net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_enabled Two other sysctls are introduced to define IOAM IDs, represented by an integer. They are respectively per-namespace and per-interface: - net.ipv6.ioam6_id - net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id The value of the first one represents the IOAM ID of the node itself (u32; max and default value = U32_MAX>>8, due to hop limit concatenation) while the other represents the IOAM ID of an interface (u16; max and default value = U16_MAX). Each "ioam6_id" sysctl has a "_wide" equivalent: - net.ipv6.ioam6_id_wide - net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id_wide The value of the first one represents the wide IOAM ID of the node itself (u64; max and default value = U64_MAX>>8, due to hop limit concatenation) while the other represents the wide IOAM ID of an interface (u32; max and default value = U32_MAX). The use of short and wide equivalents is not exclusive, a deployment could choose to leverage both. For example, net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id (short format) could be an identifier for a physical interface, whereas net.ipv6.conf.XXX.ioam6_id_wide (wide format) could be an identifier for a logical sub-interface. Documentation about new sysctls is provided at the end of this patchset. Two relativistic hash tables are used: one for IOAM namespaces, the other for IOAM schemas. A namespace can only have a single active schema and a schema can only be attached to a single namespace (1:1 relationship).

This patch provides the IPv6 IOAM option header [1] as well as the IOAM Trace header [2]. An IOAM option must be 4n-aligned. Here is an overview of a Hop-by-Hop with an IOAM Trace option: +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Next header | Hdr Ext Len | Padding | Padding | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Option Type | Opt Data Len | Reserved | IOAM Type | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Namespace-ID | NodeLen | Flags | RemainingLen| +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | IOAM-Trace-Type | Reserved | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+<-+ | | | | node data [n] | | | | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ D | | a | node data [n-1] | t | | a +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ ~ ... ~ S +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ p | | a | node data [1] | c | | e +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | | | | | node data [0] | | | | | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+<-+ The IOAM option header starts at "Option Type" and ends after "IOAM Type". The IOAM Trace header starts at "Namespace-ID" and ends after "IOAM-Trace-Type/Reserved". IOAM Type: either Pre-allocated Trace (=0), Incremental Trace (=1), Proof-of-Transit (=2) or Edge-to-Edge (=3). Note that both the Pre-allocated Trace and the Incremental Trace look the same. The two others are not implemented. Namespace-ID: IOAM namespace identifier, not to be confused with network namespaces. It adds further context to IOAM options and associated data, and allows devices which are IOAM capable to determine whether IOAM options must be processed or ignored. It can also be used by an operator to distinguish different operational domains or to identify different sets of devices. NodeLen: Length of data added by each node. It depends on the Trace Type. Flags: Only the Overflow (O) flag for now. The O flag is set by a transit node when there are not enough octets left to record its data. RemainingLen: Remaining free space to record data. IOAM-Trace-Type: Bit field where each bit corresponds to a specific kind of IOAM data. See [2] for a detailed list.

The difference between __switchdev_handle_fdb_del_to_device and switchdev_handle_del_to_device is that the former takes an extra orig_dev argument, while the latter starts with dev == orig_dev. We should recurse into the variant that does not lose the orig_dev along the way. This is relevant when deleting FDB entries pointing towards a bridge (dev changes to the lower interfaces, but orig_dev shouldn't). The addition helper already recurses properly, just the deletion one doesn't.

The at803x driver contains a function, at803x_match_phy_id(), which tests whether the PHY ID matches the value passed, comparing phy_id with phydev->phy_id and testing all bits that in the driver's mask. This is the same test that is used to match the driver, with phy_id replaced with the driver specified ID, phydev->drv->phy_id. Hence, we already know the value of the bits being tested if we look at phydev->drv->phy_id directly, and we do not require a complicated test to check them. Test directly against phydev->drv->phy_id instead.

Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== Fan out FDB entries pointing towards the bridge to all switchdev member ports The "DSA RX filtering" series has added some important support for interpreting addresses towards the bridge device as host addresses and installing them as FDB entries towards the CPU port, but it does not cover all circumstances and needs further work. To be precise, the mechanism introduced in that series only works as long as the ports are fairly static and no port joins or leaves the bridge once the configuration is done. If any port leaves, host FDB entries that were installed during runtime (for example the user changes the MAC address of the bridge device) will be prematurely deleted, resulting in a broken setup. I see this work as targeted for "net-next" because technically it was not supposed to work. Also, there are still corner cases and holes to be plugged. For example, today, FDB entries on foreign interfaces are not covered by br_fdb_replay(), which means that there are cases where some host addresses are either lost, or never deleted by DSA. That will be resolved once more work gets accepted, in particular the "Allow forwarding for the software bridge data path to be offloaded to capable devices" series, which moves the br_fdb_replay() call to the bridge core and therefore would be required to solve the problem in a generic way for every switchdev driver and not just for DSA. These patches also pave the way for a cleaner implementation for FDB entries pointing towards a LAG upper interface in DSA (that code needs only to be added, nothing changed), however this is not done here. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Using the new fan-out helper for FDB entries installed on the software bridge, we can install host addresses with the proper refcount on the CPU port, such that this case: ip link set swp0 master br0 ip link set swp1 master br0 ip link set swp2 master br0 ip link set swp3 master br0 ip link set br0 address 00:01:02:03:04:05 ip link set swp3 nomaster works properly and the br0 address remains installed as a host entry with refcount 3 instead of getting deleted.

Currently DSA has an issue with FDB entries pointing towards the bridge in the presence of br_fdb_replay() being called at port join and leave time. In particular, each bridge port will ask for a replay for the FDB entries pointing towards the bridge when it joins, and for another replay when it leaves. This means that for example, a bridge with 4 switch ports will notify DSA 4 times of the bridge MAC address. But if the MAC address of the bridge changes during the normal runtime of the system, the bridge notifies switchdev [ once ] of the deletion of the old MAC address as a local FDB towards the bridge, and of the insertion [ again once ] of the new MAC address as a local FDB. This is a problem, because DSA keeps the old MAC address as a host FDB entry with refcount 4 (4 ports asked for it using br_fdb_replay). So the old MAC address will not be deleted. Additionally, the new MAC address will only be installed with refcount 1, and when the first switch port leaves the bridge (leaving 3 others as still members), it will delete with it the new MAC address of the bridge from the local FDB entries kept by DSA (because the br_fdb_replay call on deletion will bring the entry's refcount from 1 to 0). So the problem, really, is that the number of br_fdb_replay() calls is not matched with the refcount that a host FDB is offloaded to DSA during normal runtime. An elegant way to solve the problem would be to make the switchdev notification emitted by br_fdb_change_mac_address() result in a host FDB kept by DSA which has a refcount exactly equal to the number of ports under that bridge. Then, no matter how many DSA ports join or leave that bridge, the host FDB entry will always be deleted when there are exactly zero remaining DSA switch ports members of the bridge. To implement the proposed solution, we remember that the switchdev objects and port attributes have some helpers provided by switchdev, which can be optionally called by drivers: switchdev_handle_port_obj_{add,del} and switchdev_handle_port_attr_set. These helpers: - fan out a switchdev object/attribute emitted for the bridge towards all the lower interfaces that pass the check_cb(). - fan out a switchdev object/attribute emitted for a bridge port that is a LAG towards all the lower interfaces that pass the check_cb(). In other words, this is the model we need for the FDB events too: something that will keep an FDB entry emitted towards a physical port as it is, but translate an FDB entry emitted towards the bridge into N FDB entries, one per physical port. Of course, there are many differences between fanning out a switchdev object (VLAN) on 3 lower interfaces of a LAG and fanning out an FDB entry on 3 lower interfaces of a LAG. Intuitively, an FDB entry towards a LAG should be treated specially, because FDB entries are unicast, we can't just install the same address towards 3 destinations. It is imaginable that drivers might want to treat this case specifically, so create some methods for this case and do not recurse into the LAG lower ports, just the bridge ports. DSA also listens for FDB entries on "foreign" interfaces, aka interfaces bridged with us which are not part of our hardware domain: think an Ethernet switch bridged with a Wi-Fi AP. For those addresses, DSA installs host FDB entries. However, there we have the same problem (those host FDB entries are installed with a refcount of only 1) and an even bigger one which we did not have with FDB entries towards the bridge: br_fdb_replay() is currently not called for FDB entries on foreign interfaces, just for the physical port and for the bridge itself. So when DSA sniffs an address learned by the software bridge towards a foreign interface like an e1000 port, and then that e1000 leaves the bridge, DSA remains with the dangling host FDB address. That will be fixed separately by replaying all FDB entries and not just the ones towards the port and the bridge. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
