Merge branch 'mlxsw-unified-bridge-conversion-part-6'
Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: Unified bridge conversion - part 6/6 This is the sixth and final part of the conversion of mlxsw to the unified bridge model. It transitions the last bits of functionality that were under firmware's responsibility in the legacy model to the driver. The last patches flip the driver to the unified bridge model and clean up code that was used to make the conversion easier to review. Patchset overview: Patch #1 sets the egress VID for known unicast packets. For multicast packets, the egress VID is configured using the MPE table. See commit 8c2da081 ("mlxsw: spectrum_fid: Configure egress VID classification for multicast"). Patch #2 configures the VNI to FID classification that is used during decapsulation. Patch #3 configures ingress router interface (RIF) in FID classification records, so that when a packet reaches the router block, its ingress RIF is known. Care is taken to configure this in all the different flows (e.g., RIF set on a FID, {Port, VID} joins a FID that already has a RIF etc.). Patch #4 configures the egress VID for routed packets. For such packets, the egress VID is not set by the MPE table or by an FDB record at the egress bridge, but instead by a dedicated table that maps {Egress RIF, Egress port} to a VID. Patch #5 removes VID configuration from RIF creation as in the unified bridge model firmware no longer needs it. Patch #6 sets the egress FID to use in RIF configuration so that the device knows using which FID to bridge the packet after routing. Patches #7-#9 add a new 802.1Q family and associated VLAN RIFs. In the unified bridge model, we no longer need to emulate 802.1Q FIDs using 802.1D FIDs as VNI can be associated with both. Patches #10-#11 finally flip the driver to the unified bridge model. Patches #12-#13 clean up code that was used to make the conversion easier to review. v2: * Fix build failure [1] in patch #1.
