This implementation for the Marvell mv88e6xxx chip series is based on handling ATU miss violations occurring when packets ingress on a port that is locked with learning on. This will trigger a SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_BRIDGE event, which will result in the bridge module adding a locked FDB entry. This bridge FDB entry will not age out as it has the extern_learn flag set. Userspace daemons can listen to these events and either accept or deny access for the host, by either replacing the locked FDB entry with a simple entry or leave the locked entry. If the host MAC address is already present on another port, a ATU member violation will occur, but to no real effect, and the packet will be dropped in hardware. Statistics on these violations can be shown with the command and example output of interest: ethtool -S ethX NIC statistics: ... atu_member_violation: 5 atu_miss_violation: 23 ... Where ethX is the interface of the MAB enabled port. Furthermore, as added vlan interfaces where the vid is not added to the VTU will cause ATU miss violations reporting the FID as MV88E6XXX_FID_STANDALONE, we need to check and skip the miss violations handling in this case.

As only the hardware access functions up til and including mv88e6xxx_g1_atu_mac_read() called under the interrupt handler need to take the chip lock, we release the chip lock after this call. The follow up code that handles the violations can run without the chip lock held. In further patches, the violation handler function will even be incompatible with having the chip lock held. This due to an AB/BA ordering inversion with rtnl_lock(). Signed-off-by: Hans J.

The default return value -EOPNOTSUPP of mv88e6xxx_port_bridge_flags() came from the return value of the DSA method port_egress_floods() in commit 4f85901f ("net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: add support for bridge flags"), but the DSA API was changed in commit a8b659e7 ("net: dsa: act as passthrough for bridge port flags"), resulting in the return value -EOPNOTSUPP not being valid anymore, and sections for new flags will not need to set the return value to zero on success, as with the new mab flag added in a following patch.

Bjørn Mork says: ==================== r8152: allow firmwares with NCM support Some device and firmware combinations with NCM support will end up using the cdc_ncm driver by default. This is sub- optimal for the same reasons we've previously accepted the blacklist hack in cdc_ether. The recent support for subclassing the generic USB device driver allows us to create a very slim driver with the same functionality. This patch set uses that to implement a device specific configuration default which is independent of any USB interface drivers. This means that it works equally whether the device initially ends up in NCM or ECM mode, without depending on any code in the respective class drivers. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Subclassing the generic USB device driver to override the default configuration selection regardless of matching interface drivers. The r815x family devices expose a vendor specific function which the r8152 interface driver wants to handle. This is the preferred device mode. Additionally one or more USB class functions are usually supported for hosts lacking a vendor specific driver. The choice is USB configuration based, with one alternate function per configuration. Example device with both NCM and ECM alternate cfgs: T: Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 4 Spd=5000 MxCh= 0 D: Ver= 3.20 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 9 #Cfgs= 3 P: Vendor=0bda ProdID=8156 Rev=31.00 S: Manufacturer=Realtek S: Product=USB 10/100/1G/2.5G LAN S: SerialNumber=001000001 C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=a0 MxPwr=256mA I:* If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=ff(vend.)

Using the above example, Linux defaults to cfg #2, running the device in a sub-optimal NCM mode. Previously we've attempted to work around the problem by blacklisting the devices in the ECM class driver "cdc_ether", and matching on the ECM class function in the vendor specific interface driver. The latter has been used to switch back to the vendor specific configuration when the driver is probed for a class function. This workaround has several issues; - class driver blacklists is additional maintanence cruft in an unrelated driver - class driver blacklists prevents users from optionally running the devices in class mode - each device needs double match entries in the vendor driver - the initial probing as a class function slows down device discovery Now these issues have become even worse with the introduction of firmware supporting both NCM and ECM, where NCM ends up as the default mode in Linux. To use the same workaround, we now have to blacklist the devices in to two different class drivers and add yet another match entry to the vendor specific driver. This patch implements an alternative workaround strategy - independent of the interface drivers. It avoids adding a blacklist to the cdc_ncm driver and will let us remove the existing blacklist from the cdc_ether driver. As an additional bonus, removing the blacklists allow users to select one of the other device modes if wanted. Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: David S.

The lan8814 represents a package of 4 PHYs. All of them are sharing the same interrupt line. So when a link was going down/up or a frame was timestamped, then the interrupt handler of all the PHYs was called. Which is all fine and expected but the problem is the way the handler interrupt works. Basically if one of the PHYs timestamp a frame, then all the other 3 PHYs were polling the status of the interrupt until that PHY actually cleared the interrupt by reading the timestamp. The reason of polling was in case another PHY was also timestamping a frame at the same time, it could miss this interrupt. But this is not the right approach, because it is the interrupt controller who needs to call the interrupt handlers again if the interrupt line is still active. Therefore change this such when the interrupt handler is called check only if the interrupt is for itself, otherwise just exit. In this way save CPU usage.

Jakub Kicinski says: ==================== devlink: remove the wait-for-references on unregister Move the registration and unregistration of the devlink instances under their instance locks. Don't perform the netdev-style wait for all references when unregistering the instance. Instead the devlink instance refcount will only ensure that the memory of the instance is not freed. All places which acquire access to devlink instances via a reference must check that the instance is still registered under the instance lock. This fixes the problem of the netdev code accessing devlink instances before they are registered.
