====================
net: dsa: cross-chip FDB support
DSA can have interconnected switches. For instance, the ZII Dev Rev B
board described in arch/arm/boot/dts/vf610-zii-dev-rev-b.dts has a
switch fabric composed of 3 switch devices like this:
lan4 lan6
CPU (eth1) | lan5 | lan7
| | | | |
[0 1 2 3 4 6 5]---[6 0 1 2 3 4 5]---[9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8]
| | | | | | |
lan0 | lan2 lan3 lan8 | optical4
lan1 optical3
One current issue with DSA is cross-chip FDB. If we add a static MAC
address on lan3, only its parent switch 1 (the one in the middle) will
be programmed. That is not correct in a cross-chip environment, because
the DSA ports connecting to switch 1 of adjacent switch 0 (on the left)
and switch 2 (on the right) must be programmed too.
Without this patchset, a dump of the hardware FDB of switches 0, 1 and 2
after programming a MAC address on lan3 looks like this (*):
# bridge fdb add 11:22:33:44:55:66 dev lan3
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/mv88e6xxx/sw*/atu/0 | grep -v FID
0 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff MC_STATIC n 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
0 11:22:33:44:55:66 MC_STATIC_MGMT_PO n 0 - - - - - -
0 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff MC_STATIC n 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
0 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff MC_STATIC n 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
With this patchset applied, adjacent DSA ports get programmed too:
# bridge fdb add 11:22:33:44:55:66 dev lan3
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/mv88e6xxx/sw*/atu/0 | grep -v FID
0 11:22:33:44:55:66 MC_STATIC_MGMT_PO n - - - - - 5 -
0 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff MC_STATIC n 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
0 11:22:33:44:55:66 MC_STATIC_MGMT_PO n 0 - - - - - -
0 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff MC_STATIC n 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
0 11:22:33:44:55:66 MC_STATIC_MGMT_PO n - - - - - - - - - 9
0 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff MC_STATIC n 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
In order to do that, the first commit introduces a dsa_towards_port()
helper which returns the local port of a switch which must be used to
reach an arbitrary switch port (local or from an adjacent switch.)
The second patch uses this helper to configure the port reaching the
target port for every switches of the fabric.
(*) a patch for squashed debugfs interface which applies on top of this
patchset is available here:

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
