In fact, +address learning even breaks setups such as this one: + + +---------------------------------------------+ + | | + | +-------------------+ | + | | br0 | send receive | + | +--------+-+--------+ +--------+ +--------+ | + | | | | | | | | | | + | | swp0 | | swp1 | | swp2 | | swp3 | | + | | | | | | | | | | + +-+--------+-+--------+-+--------+-+--------+-+ + | ^ | ^ + | | | | + | +-----------+ | + | | + +--------------------------------+ + +because if the switch has a single FDB (can offload a single bridge) +then source address learning on swp3 can "steal" the source MAC address +of swp2 from br0's FDB, because learning frames coming from swp2 will be +done twice: first on the swp1 ingress port, second on the swp3 ingress +port. So the hardware FDB will become out of sync with the software +bridge, and when swp2 tries to send one more packet towards swp1, the +ASIC will attempt to short-circuit the forwarding path and send it +directly to swp3 (since that's the last port it learned that address on), +which it obviously can't, because swp3 operates in standalone mode. + +So DSA drivers operating in standalone mode should still configure a +list of bridge port flags even when they are standalone. Currently DSA +attempts to call dsa_port_bridge_flags with 0, which disables egress +flooding of unknown unicast and multicast, something which doesn't make +much sense. For the switches that implement .port_egress_floods - b53 +and mv88e6xxx, it probably doesn't matter too much either, since they +can possibly inject traffic from the CPU into a standalone port, +regardless of MAC DA, even if egress flooding is turned off for that +port, but certainly not all DSA switches can do that - sja1105, for +example, can't. So it makes sense to use a better common default there, +such as "flood everything". + +It should also be noted that what DSA calls "dsa_port_bridge_flags()" +is a degenerate name for just calling .port_egress_floods(), since +nothing else is implemented - not learning, in particular. But disabling +address learning, something that this driver is also coding up for, will +be supported by individual drivers once .port_egress_floods is replaced +with a more generic .port_bridge_flags. + +Previous attempts to code up this logic have been in the common bridge +layer, but as pointed out by Ido Schimmel, there are corner cases that +are missed when doing that: +https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20210209151936.97382-5-olteanv@gmail.com/ + +So, at least for now, let's leave DSA in charge of setting port flags +before and after the bridge join and leave. + +Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> +Reviewed-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com> +Signed-off-by: David S.
