      wwan: core: Fix missing RTM_NEWLINK event for default link · 8cc236db
      Loic Poulain authored 
      A wwan link created via the wwan_create_default_link procedure is
never notified to the user (RTM_NEWLINK), causing issues with user
tools relying on such event to track network links (NetworkManager).

This is because the procedure misses a call to rtnl_configure_link(),
which sets the link as initialized and notifies the new link (cf
proper usage in __rtnl_newlink()).

      Merge branch 'bridge-tx-fwd' · 356ae88f
      David S. Miller authored 
      Vladimir Oltean says:

====================
Allow TX forwarding for the software bridge data path to be offloaded to capable devices

On RX, switchdev drivers have the ability to mark packets for the
software bridge as "already forwarded in hardware" via
skb->offload_fwd_mark. This instructs the nbp_switchdev_allowed_egress()
function to perform software forwarding of that packet only to the bridge
ports that are not in the same hardware domain as the source packet.

This series expands the concept for TX, in the sense that we can trust
the accelerator to:
(a) look up its FDB (which is more or less in sync with the software
    bridge FDB) for selecting the destination ports for a packet
(b) replicate the frame in hardware in case it's a multicast/broadcast,
    instead of the software bridge having to clone it and send the
    clones to each net device one at a time. This reduces the bandwidth
    needed between the CPU and the accelerator, as well as the CPU time
    spent.

This is done by augmenting nbp_switchdev_allowed_egress() to also
exclude the bridge ports which have the tx_fwd_offload capability if the
skb has already been transmitted to one port from their hardware domain.

Even though in reality, the software bridge still technically looks up
the FDB/MDB for every frame, but all skb clones are suppressed, this
offload specifically requires that the switchdev accelerator looks up
its FDB/MDB again. It is intended to be used to inject "data plane
packets" into the hardware as opposed to "control plane packets" which
target a precise destination port.

Towards that goal, the bridge always provides the TX packets with
skb->offload_fwd_mark = true with the VLAN tag always present, so that
the accelerator can forward according to that VLAN broadcast domain.

This work is not intended to cater to switches which can inject control
plane packets to a bit mask of destination ports. I see that as a more
difficult task to accomplish with potentially less benefits (it provides
only replication offload). The reason it is more difficult is that
struct skb_buff would probably need to be extended to contain a list of
struct net_devices that the packet must be replicated to. Sending data
plane packets avoids that issue by keeping the hardware and software FDB
more or less in sync and looking it up twice.

Additionally, the ability for the software bridge to request data plane
packets to be sent brings the opportunity for "dumb switches" to support
traffic termination to/from the bridge. Such switches (DSA or otherwise)
typically only use control packets for link-local traps, and sending or
receiving a control packet is an expensive operation.

For this class of switches, this patch series makes the difference
between supporting and not supporting local IP termination through a
VLAN-aware bridge, bridging with a foreign interface, bridging with
software upper interfaces like LAG, etc. So instead of telling them
"oh, what a dumb switch you are!", we can now tell them "oh, what a
stark contrast you have between the control and data plane!".

Patches 1-3 tested on Turris MOX (3 mv88e6xxx switches in a daisy chain
topology) and a second DSA driver to be added soon. Patches 4-5 tested
only on Turris MOX.

===========================================================

Changes in v5:
- make sure the static key is decremented on bridge port unoffload
- rename functions and variables so that the "tx_fwd_offload" string is
  easy to grep across the git tree
- simplify DSA core bookkeeping of the bridge_num

===========================================================

Changes in v4:

The biggest change compared to the previous series is not present in the
patches, but is rather a lack of them. Previously we were replaying
switchdev objects on the public notifier chain, but that was a mistake
in my reasoning and it was reverted for v4. Therefore, we are now
passing the notifier blocks as arguments to switchdev_bridge_port_offload()
for all drivers. This alone gets rid of 7 patches compared to v3.

Other changes are:
- Take more care for the case where mlxsw leaves a VLAN or LAG upper
  that is a bridge port, make sure that switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload()
  gets called for that case
- A couple of DSA bug fixes
- Add change logs for all patches
- Copy all switchdev driver maintainers on the changes relevant to them

===========================================================

Message for v3:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/20210712152142.800651-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/

In this submission I have introduced a "native switchdev" driver API to
signal whether the TX forwarding offload is supported or not. This comes
after a third person has said that the macvlan offload framework used
for v2 and v1 was simply too convoluted.

This large patch set is submitted for discussion purposes (it is
provided in its entirety so it can be applied & tested on net-next).
It is only minimally tested, and yet I will not copy all switchdev
driver maintainers until we agree on the viability of this approach.

The major changes compared to v2:
- The introduction of switchdev_bridge_port_offload() and
  switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload() as two major API changes from the
  perspective of a switchdev driver. All drivers were converted to call
  these.
- Augment switchdev_bridge_port_{,un}offload to also handle the
  switchdev object replays on port join/leave.
- Augment switchdev_bridge_port_offload to also signal whether the TX
  forwarding offload is supported.

===========================================================

Message for v2:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/20210703115705.1034112-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/

For this series I have taken Tobias' work from here:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/20210426170411.1789186-1-tobias@waldekranz.com/
and made the following changes:
- I collected and integrated (hopefully all of) Nikolay's, Ido's and my
  feedback on the bridge driver changes. Otherwise, the structure of the
  bridge changes is pretty much the same as Tobias left it.
- I basically rewrote the DSA infrastructure for the data plane
  forwarding offload, based on the commonalities with another switch
  driver for which I implemented this feature (not submitted here)
- I adapted mv88e6xxx to use the new infrastructure, hopefully it still
  works but I didn't test that

      net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: map virtual bridges with forwarding offload in the PVT · ce5df689
      Vladimir Oltean authored 
      The mv88e6xxx switches have the ability to receive FORWARD (data plane)
frames from the CPU port and route them according to the FDB. We can use
this to offload the forwarding process of packets sent by the software
bridge.

Because DSA supports bridge domain isolation between user ports, just
sending FORWARD frames is not enough, as they might leak the intended
broadcast domain of the bridge on behalf of which the packets are sent.

It should be noted that FORWARD frames are also (and typically) used to
forward data plane packets on DSA links in cross-chip topologies. The
FORWARD frame header contains the source port and switch ID, and
switches receiving this frame header forward the packet according to
their cross-chip port-based VLAN table (PVT).

To address the bridging domain isolation in the context of offloading
the forwarding on TX, the idea is that we can reuse the parts of the PVT
that don't have any physical switch mapped to them, one entry for each
software bridge. The switches will therefore think that behind their
upstream port lie many switches, all in fact backed up by software
bridges through tag_dsa.c, which constructs FORWARD packets with the
right switch ID corresponding to each bridge.

The mapping we use is absolutely trivial: DSA gives us a unique bridge
number, and we add the number of the physical switches in the DSA switch
tree to that, to obtain a unique virtual bridge device number to use in
the PVT.

      net: dsa: add support for bridge TX forwarding offload · 123abc06
      Vladimir Oltean authored 
      For a DSA switch, to offload the forwarding process of a bridge device
means to send the packets coming from the software bridge as data plane
packets. This is contrary to everything that DSA has done so far,
because the current taggers only know to send control packets (ones that
target a specific destination port), whereas data plane packets are
supposed to be forwarded according to the FDB lookup, much like packets
ingressing on any regular ingress port. If the FDB lookup process
returns multiple destination ports (flooding, multicast), then
replication is also handled by the switch hardware - the bridge only
sends a single packet and avoids the skb_clone().

DSA keeps for each bridge port a zero-based index (the number of the
bridge). Multiple ports performing TX forwarding offload to the same
bridge have the same dp->bridge_num value, and ports not offloading the
TX data plane of a bridge have dp->bridge_num = -1.

The tagger can check if the packet that is being transmitted on has
skb->offload_fwd_mark = true or not. If it does, it can be sure that the
packet belongs to the data plane of a bridge, further information about
which can be obtained based on dp->bridge_dev and dp->bridge_num.
It can then compose a DSA tag for injecting a data plane packet into
that bridge number.

For the switch driver side, we offer two new dsa_switch_ops methods,
called .port_bridge_fwd_offload_{add,del}, which are modeled after
.port_bridge_{join,leave}.
These methods are provided in case the driver needs to configure the
hardware to treat packets coming from that bridge software interface as
data plane packets. The switchdev <-> bridge interaction happens during
the netdev_master_upper_dev_link() call, so to switch drivers, the
effect is that the .port_bridge_fwd_offload_add() method is called
immediately after .port_bridge_join().

If the bridge number exceeds the number of bridges for which the switch
driver can offload the TX data plane (and this includes the case where
the driver can offload none), DSA falls back to simply returning
tx_fwd_offload = false in the switchdev_bridge_port_offload() call.

      net: dsa: track the number of switches in a tree · 5b22d366
      Vladimir Oltean authored 
      In preparation of supporting data plane forwarding on behalf of a
software bridge, some drivers might need to view bridges as virtual
switches behind the CPU port in a cross-chip topology.

Give them some help and let them know how many physical switches there
are in the tree, so that they can count the virtual switches starting
from that number on.

Note that the first dsa_switch_ops method where this information is
reliably available is .setup(). This is because of how DSA works:
in a tree with 3 switches, each calling dsa_register_switch(), the first
2 will advance until dsa_tree_setup() -> dsa_tree_setup_routing_table()
and exit with error code 0 because the topology is not complete. Since
probing is parallel at this point, one switch does not know about the
existence of the other. Then the third switch comes, and for it,
dsa_tree_setup_routing_table() returns complete = true. This switch goes
ahead and calls dsa_tree_setup_switches() for everybody else, calling
their .setup() methods too. This acts as the synchronization point.

      net: bridge: switchdev: allow the TX data plane forwarding to be offloaded · 47211192
      Tobias Waldekranz authored 
      Allow switchdevs to forward frames from the CPU in accordance with the
bridge configuration in the same way as is done between bridge
ports. This means that the bridge will only send a single skb towards
one of the ports under the switchdev's control, and expects the driver
to deliver the packet to all eligible ports in its domain.

Primarily this improves the performance of multicast flows with
multiple subscribers, as it allows the hardware to perform the frame
replication.

The basic flow between the driver and the bridge is as follows:

- When joining a bridge port, the switchdev driver calls
  switchdev_bridge_port_offload() with tx_fwd_offload = true.

- The bridge sends offloadable skbs to one of the ports under the
  switchdev's control using skb->offload_fwd_mark = true.

- The switchdev driver checks the skb->offload_fwd_mark field and lets
  its FDB lookup select the destination port mask for this packet.

v1->v2:
- convert br_input_skb_cb::fwd_hwdoms to a plain unsigned long
- introduce a static key "br_switchdev_fwd_offload_used" to minimize the
  impact of the newly introduced feature on all the setups which don't
  have hardware that can make use of it
- introduce a check for nbp->flags & BR_FWD_OFFLOAD to optimize cache
  line access
- reorder nbp_switchdev_frame_mark_accel() and br_handle_vlan() in
  __br_forward()
- do not strip VLAN on egress if forwarding offload on VLAN-aware bridge
  is being used
- propagate errors from .ndo_dfwd_add_station() if not EOPNOTSUPP

v2->v3:
- replace the solution based on .ndo_dfwd_add_station with a solution
  based on switchdev_bridge_port_offload
- rename BR_FWD_OFFLOAD to BR_TX_FWD_OFFLOAD
v3->v4: rebase
v4->v5:
- make sure the static key is decremented on bridge port unoffload
- more function and variable renaming and comments for them:
  br_switchdev_fwd_offload_used to br_switchdev_tx_fwd_offload
  br_switchdev_accels_skb to br_switchdev_frame_uses_tx_fwd_offload
  nbp_switchdev_frame_mark_tx_fwd to nbp_switchdev_frame_mark_tx_fwd_to_hwdom
  nbp_switchdev_frame_mark_accel to nbp_switchdev_frame_mark_tx_fwd_offload
