Linux Ethernet Bridging - May 2018 - [Bridge] [PATCH net-next v3 6/7] net: bridge: Notify about bridge VLANs

In commit 946a11e7408e ("mlxsw: spectrum_span: Allow bridge for gretap
mirror"), mlxsw got support for offloading mirror-to-gretap such that
the underlay packet path involves a bridge. In that case, the offload is
also influenced by PVID setting of said bridge. However, changes to VLAN
configuration of the bridge itself do not generate switchdev
notifications, so there's no mechanism to prod mlxsw to update the
offload when these settings change.

In this patchset, the problem is resolved by distributing the switchdev
notification SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_VLAN also for configuration changes
on bridge VLANs. Since stacked devices distribute the notification to
lower devices, such event eventually reaches the driver, which can
determine whether it's a bridge or port VLAN by inspecting orig_dev.

To keep things consistent, the newly-distributed notifications observe
the same protocol as the existing ones: dual prepare/commit, with
-EOPNOTSUPP indicating lack of support, even though there's currently
nothing to prepare for and nothing to support. Correspondingly, all
switchdev drivers have been updated to return -EOPNOTSUPP for bridge
VLAN notifications.

In patch #1, the code to send notifications for adding and deleting is
factored out into two named functions.

In patches #2-#5, respectively for mlxsw, rocker, DSA and DPAA2 ethsw,
the new notifications (which are not enabled yet) are ignored to
maintain the current behavior.

In patch #6, the notification is actually enabled.

In patch #7, mlxsw is changed to update offloads of mirror-to-gre also
for bridge-related notifications.

Changes from v2 to v3:

- Add a fallback definition for br_switchdev_port_obj_add() and
  br_switchdev_port_obj_del() when !CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV.

Changes from v1 to v2:

- Rename br_switchdev_port_obj_add() and br_switchdev_port_obj_del() to
  br_switchdev_port_vlan_add() and br_switchdev_port_vlan_del(), and
  move from br_vlan.c to br_switchdev.c.

2.4.11

A call to switchdev_port_obj_add() or switchdev_port_obj_del() involves
initializing a struct switchdev_obj_port_vlan, a piece of code that
repeats on each call site almost verbatim. While in the current codebase
there is just one duplicated add call, the follow-up patches add more of
both add and del calls.

Thus to remove the duplication, extract the repetition into named
functions and reuse.

A driver might need to react to changes in settings of brentry VLANs.
Therefore send switchdev port notifications for these as well. Reuse
SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_VLAN for this purpose. Listeners should use
netif_is_bridge_master() on orig_dev to determine whether the
notification is about a bridge port or a bridge.

Since there's no special support for the bridge events, the driver
returns -EOPNOTSUPP, and thus the commit never happens. Therefore
schedule respin during the prepare stage: there's no real difference one
way or another.

This fixes the problem that mirror-to-gretap offload wouldn't adapt to
changes in bridge vlan configuration right away and another notification
would have to arrive for mlxsw to catch up.

It occured to me that I should read the cover letter and here are the
answers I was looking for.  But the cover letter isn't saved after the
commits are merged.  This should really be in the commit messages itself
so that we can look it up in the git history.
