net: bridge: move default pvid init/deinit to NETDEV_REGISTER/UNREGISTER
Most of the bridge device's vlan init bugs come from the fact that its default pvid is created at the wrong time, way too early in ndo_init() before the device is even assigned an ifindex. It introduces a bug when the bridge's dev_addr is added as fdb during the initial default pvid creation the notification has ifindex/NDA_MASTER both equal to 0 (see example below) which really makes no sense for user-space[0] and is wrong. Usually user-space software would ignore such entries, but they are actually valid and will eventually have all necessary attributes. It makes much more sense to send a notification *after* the device has registered and has a proper ifindex allocated rather than before when there's a chance that the registration might still fail or to receive it with ifindex/NDA_MASTER == 0. Note that we can remove the fdb flush from br_vlan_flush() since that case can no longer happen. At NETDEV_REGISTER br->default_pvid is always == 1 as it's initialized by br_vlan_init() before that and at NETDEV_UNREGISTER it can be anything depending why it was called (if called due to NETDEV_REGISTER error it'll still be == 1, otherwise it could be any value changed during the device life time). For the demonstration below a small change to iproute2 for printing all fdb notifications is added, because it contained a workaround not to show entries with ifindex == 0. Command executed while monitoring: $ ip l add br0 type bridge Before (both ifindex and master == 0): $ bridge monitor fdb 36:7e:8a:b3:56:ba dev * vlan 1 master * permanent After (proper br0 ifindex): $ bridge monitor fdb e6:2a:ae:7a:b7:48 dev br0 vlan 1 master br0 permanent v4: move only the default pvid init/deinit to NETDEV_REGISTER/UNREGISTER v3: send the correct v2 patch with all changes (stub should return 0) v2: on error in br_vlan_init set br->vlgrp to NULL and return 0 in the br_vlan_bridge_event stub when bridge vlans are disabled [0] https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204389Reported-by: michael-dev <michael-dev@fami-braun.de> Fixes: 5be5a2df ("bridge: Add filtering support for default_pvid") Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com> Acked-by: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
