While working on another tag_8021q driver implementation, some things became apparent: - It is not mandatory for a DSA driver to offload the tag_8021q VLANs by using the VLAN table per se. For example, it can add custom TCAM rules that simply encapsulate RX traffic, and redirect & decapsulate rules for TX traffic. For such a driver, it makes no sense to receive the tag_8021q configuration through the same callback as it receives the VLAN configuration from the bridge and the 8021q modules. - Currently, sja1105 (the only tag_8021q user) sets a priv->expect_dsa_8021q variable to distinguish between the bridge calling, and tag_8021q calling. That can be improved, to say the least. - The crosschip bridging operations are, in fact, stateful already. The list of crosschip_links must be kept by the caller and passed to the relevant tag_8021q functions. So it would be nice if the tag_8021q configuration was more self-contained. This patch attempts to do that. Create a struct dsa_8021q_context which encapsulates a struct dsa_switch, and has 2 function pointers for adding and deleting a VLAN. These will replace the previous channel to the driver, which was through the .port_vlan_add and .port_vlan_del callbacks of dsa_switch_ops. Also put the list of crosschip_links into this dsa_8021q_context. Drivers that don't support cross-chip bridging can simply omit to initialize this list, as long as they dont call any cross-chip function. The sja1105_vlan_add and sja1105_vlan_del functions are refactored into a smaller sja1105_vlan_add_one, which now has 2 entry points: - sja1105_vlan_add, from struct dsa_switch_ops - sja1105_dsa_8021q_vlan_add, from the tag_8021q ops But even this change is fairly trivial. It just reflects the fact that for sja1105, the VLANs from these 2 channels end up in the same hardware table. However that is not necessarily true in the general sense (and that's the reason for making this change). The rest of the patch is mostly plain refactoring of "ds" -> "ctx". The dsa_8021q_context structure needs to be propagated because adding a VLAN is now done through the ops function pointers inside of it.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
