Returning -EOPNOTSUPP does *NOT* mean anything special.
port_vlan_add() is actually called from 2 code paths, one is
vlan_vid_add() from 8021q module and the other is
br_switchdev_port_vlan_add() from switchdev.
The bridge has a wrapper __vlan_vid_add() which first tries via
switchdev, then if that returns -EOPNOTSUPP, tries again via the VLAN RX
filters in the 8021q module. But DSA doesn't distinguish between one
call path and the other when calling the driver's port_vlan_add(), so if
the driver returns -EOPNOTSUPP to switchdev, it also returns -EOPNOTSUPP
to the 8021q module. And the latter is a hard error.
port_fdb_add() is called from the deferred dsa_owq only, so obviously
its return code isn't propagated anywhere, and cannot be interpreted in
any way.
The return code from port_mdb_add() is propagated to the bridge, but
again, this doesn't do anything special when -EOPNOTSUPP is returned,
but rather, br_switchdev_mdb_notify() returns void.

After change "net: dsa: tag_8021q: replace the SVL bridging with
VLAN-unaware IVL bridging", tag_8021q enforces two different pvids on a
port, depending on whether it is standalone or in a VLAN-unaware bridge.
Up until now, there was a single pvid, represented by
dsa_tag_8021q_rx_vid(), and that was used as the VLAN for VLAN-unaware
virtual link rules, regardless of whether the port was bridged or
standalone.
To keep VLAN-unaware virtual links working, we need to follow whether
the port is in a bridge or not, and update the VLAN ID from those rules.
In fact we can't fully do that. Depending on whether the switch is
VLAN-aware or not, we can accept Virtual Link rules with just the MAC
DA, or with a MAC DA and a VID. So we already deny changes to the VLAN
awareness of the switch. But the VLAN awareness may also change as a
result of joining or leaving a bridge.
One might say we could just allow the following: a port may leave a
VLAN-unaware bridge while it has VLAN-unaware VL (tc-flower) rules, and
the driver will update those with the new tag_8021q pvid for standalone
mode, but the driver won't accept joining a bridge at all while VL rules
were installed in standalone mode. This is sort of a compromise made
because leaving a bridge is an operation that cannot be vetoed.
But this sort of setup change is not fully supported, either: as
mentioned, VLAN filtering changes can also be triggered by leaving a
bridge, therefore, the existing veto we have in place for turning VLAN
filtering off with VLAN-aware VL rules active still isn't fully
effective.
I really don't know how to deal with this in a way that produces
predictable behavior for user space. Since at the moment, keeping this
feature fully functional on constellation changes (not changing the
tag_8021q port pvid when joining a bridge) is blocking progress for the
DSA FDB isolation, I'd rather document it as a (potentially temporary)
limitation and go on without it.

We want to add reference counting for FDB entries in cross-chip
topologies, and in order for that to have any chance of working and not
be unbalanced (leading to entries which are never deleted), we need to
ensure that higher layers are sane, because if they aren't, it's garbage
in, garbage out.
For example, if we add a bridge FDB entry twice, the bridge properly
errors out:
$ bridge fdb add dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:07 master static
$ bridge fdb add dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:07 master static
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
However, the same thing cannot be said about the bridge bypass
operations:
$ bridge fdb add dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:07
$ bridge fdb add dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:07
$ bridge fdb add dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:07
$ bridge fdb add dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:07
$ echo $?
0
But one 'bridge fdb del' is enough to remove the entry, no matter how
many times it was added.
The bridge bypass operations are impossible to maintain in these
circumstances and lack of support for reference counting the cross-chip
notifiers is holding us back from making further progress, so just drop
support for them. The only way left for users to install static bridge
FDB entries is the proper one, using the "master static" flags.
With this change, rtnl_fdb_add() falls back to calling
ndo_dflt_fdb_add() which uses the duplicate-exclusive variant of
dev_uc_add(): dev_uc_add_excl(). Because DSA does not (yet) declare
IFF_UNICAST_FLT, this results in us going to promiscuous mode:
$ bridge fdb add dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:05
[ 28.206743] device swp0 entered promiscuous mode
$ bridge fdb add dev swp0 00:01:02:03:04:05
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
So even if it does not completely fail, there is at least some indication
that it is behaving differently from before, and closer to user space
expectations, I would argue (the lack of a "local|static" specifier
defaults to "local", or "host-only", so dev_uc_add() is a reasonable
default implementation). If the generic implementation of .ndo_fdb_add
provided by Vlad Yasevich is a proof of anything, it only proves that
the implementation provided by DSA was always wrong, by not looking at
"ndm->ndm_state & NUD_NOARP" (the "static" flag which means that the FDB
entry points outwards) and "ndm->ndm_state & NUD_PERMANENT" (the "local"
flag which means that the FDB entry points towards the host). It all
used to mean the same thing to DSA.
Update the documentation so that the users are not confused about what's
going on.

Some really really weird switches just couldn't decide whether to use a
normal or a tail tagger, so they just did both.
This creates problems for DSA, because we only have the concept of an
'overhead' which can be applied to the headroom or to the tailroom of
the skb (like for example during the central TX reallocation procedure),
depending on the value of bool tail_tag, but not to both.
We need to generalize DSA to cater for these odd switches by
transforming the 'overhead / tail_tag' pair into 'needed_headroom /
needed_tailroom'.
The DSA master's MTU is increased to account for both.
The flow dissector code is modified such that it only calls the DSA
adjustment callback if the tagger has a non-zero header length.
Taggers are trivially modified to declare either needed_headroom or
needed_tailroom, based on the tail_tag value that they currently
declare.

On the other hand, there are always more drivers to port, but at this

supported and probably more switch families from various vendors), so

DSA wants the master interface to be open before the user port is due to
historical reasons. The promiscuity of interfaces that are down used to
have issues, as referenced Lennert Buytenhek in commit df02c6ff2e39
("dsa: fix master interface allmulti/promisc handling").
The bugfix mentioned there, commit b6c40d68ff64 ("net: only invoke
dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP"), was basically a "don't do
that" approach to working around the promiscuity while down issue.
Further work done by Vlad Yasevich in commit d2615bf45069 ("net: core:
Always propagate flag changes to interfaces") has resolved the
underlying issue, and it is strictly up to the DSA and 8021q drivers
now, it is no longer mandated by the networking core that the master
interface must be up when changing its promiscuity.
From DSA's point of view, deciding to error out in dsa_slave_open
because the master isn't up is
(a) a bad user experience and
(b) knocking at an open door.
Even if there still was an issue with promiscuity while down, DSA could
still just open the master and avoid it.
Doing it this way has the additional benefit that user space can now
remove DSA-specific workarounds, like systemd-networkd with BindCarrier:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/7478
And we can finally remove one of the 2 bullets in the "Common pitfalls
using DSA setups" chapter.
Tested with two cascaded DSA switches:
$ ip link set sw0p2 up
fsl_enetc 0000:00:00.2 eno2: configuring for fixed/internal link mode
fsl_enetc 0000:00:00.2 eno2: Link is Up - 1Gbps/Full - flow control rx/tx
mscc_felix 0000:00:00.5 swp0: configuring for fixed/sgmii link mode
mscc_felix 0000:00:00.5 swp0: Link is Up - 1Gbps/Full - flow control off
8021q: adding VLAN 0 to HW filter on device swp0
sja1105 spi2.0 sw0p2: configuring for phy/rgmii-id link mode
IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eno2: link becomes ready
IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): swp0: link becomes ready

In the "single port" example code for configuring a DSA switch without
tagging support from userspace the command to bring up the "lan2" link
was typo'd.

We need an empty line before list stats, otherwise first point
will be smooshed into the paragraph. Inside tables text must
start at the same offset in the cell, otherwise sphinx thinks
it's a new indented block.
