====================
DSA documentation updates for v5.15

There were some documentation-visible changes made to DSA in the
net-next tree for v5.15. There may be more, but these are the ones I am
aware of.

sja1105 devlink support
=======================
This document describes the devlink features implemented
by the ``sja1105`` device driver.

* - ``best_effort_vlan_filtering``

- Allow plain ETH_P_8021Q headers to be used as DSA tags.
Benefits:
- Can terminate untagged traffic over switch net
devices even when enslaved to a bridge with
vlan_filtering=1.
- Can terminate VLAN-tagged traffic over switch net
devices even when enslaved to a bridge with
vlan_filtering=1, with some constraints (no more than
7 non-pvid VLANs per user port).
- Can do QoS based on VLAN PCP and VLAN membership
admission control for autonomously forwarded frames
(regardless of whether they can be terminated on the
CPU or not).
Drawbacks:
- User cannot use VLANs in range 1024-3071. If the
switch receives frames with such VIDs, it will
misinterpret them as DSA tags.
- Switch uses Shared VLAN Learning (FDB lookup uses
only DMAC as key).
- When VLANs span cross-chip topologies, the total
number of permitted VLANs may be less than 7 per
port, due to a maximum number of 32 VLAN retagging
rules per switch.

setting the ``promisc_on_master`` property of the ``struct dsa_device_ops``.
Note that this assumes a DSA-unaware master driver, which is the norm.
Hardware manufacturers are strongly discouraged to do this, but some tagging
protocols might not provide source port information on RX for all packets, but
e.g. only for control traffic (link-local PDUs). In this case, by implementing
the ``filter`` method of ``struct dsa_device_ops``, the tagger might select
which packets are to be redirected on RX towards the virtual DSA user network
interfaces, and which are to be left in the DSA master's RX data path.
It might also happen (although silicon vendors are strongly discouraged to
produce hardware like this) that a tagging protocol splits the switch-specific
information into a header portion and a tail portion, therefore not falling
cleanly into any of the above 3 categories. DSA does not support this
configuration.

- ``port_bridge_tx_fwd_offload``: bridge layer function invoked after
``port_bridge_join`` when a driver sets ``ds->num_fwd_offloading_bridges`` to
a non-zero value. Returning success in this function activates the TX
forwarding offload bridge feature for this port, which enables the tagging
protocol driver to inject data plane packets towards the bridging domain that
the port is a part of. Data plane packets are subject to FDB lookup, hardware
learning on the CPU port, and do not override the port STP state.
Additionally, replication of data plane packets (multicast, flooding) is
handled in hardware and the bridge driver will transmit a single skb for each
packet that needs replication. The method is provided as a configuration
point for drivers that need to configure the hardware for enabling this
feature.

Traffic support
===============
The switches do not have hardware support for DSA tags, except for "slow
protocols" for switch control as STP and PTP. For these, the switches have two
programmable filters for link-local destination MACs.
These are used to trap BPDUs and PTP traffic to the master netdevice, and are
further used to support STP and 1588 ordinary clock/boundary clock
functionality. For frames trapped to the CPU, source port and switch ID
information is encoded by the hardware into the frames.
But by leveraging ``CONFIG_NET_DSA_TAG_8021Q`` (a software-defined DSA tagging
format based on VLANs), general-purpose traffic termination through the network
stack can be supported under certain circumstances.
Depending on VLAN awareness state, the following operating modes are possible
with the switch:
- Mode 1 (VLAN-unaware): a port is in this mode when it is used as a standalone
net device, or when it is enslaved to a bridge with ``vlan_filtering=0``.
- Mode 2 (fully VLAN-aware): a port is in this mode when it is enslaved to a
bridge with ``vlan_filtering=1``. Access to the entire VLAN range is given to
the user through ``bridge vlan`` commands, but general-purpose (anything
other than STP, PTP etc) traffic termination is not possible through the
switch net devices. The other packets can be still by user space processed
through the DSA master interface (similar to ``DSA_TAG_PROTO_NONE``).
- Mode 3 (best-effort VLAN-aware): a port is in this mode when enslaved to a
bridge with ``vlan_filtering=1``, and the devlink property of its parent
switch named ``best_effort_vlan_filtering`` is set to ``true``. When
configured like this, the range of usable VIDs is reduced (0 to 1023 and 3072
to 4094), so is the number of usable VIDs (maximum of 7 non-pvid VLANs per
port*), and shared VLAN learning is performed (FDB lookup is done only by
DMAC, not also by VID).
To summarize, in each mode, the following types of traffic are supported over
the switch net devices:
+-------------+-----------+--------------+------------+
| | Mode 1 | Mode 2 | Mode 3 |
+=============+===========+==============+============+
| Regular | Yes | No | Yes |
| traffic | | (use master) | |

| Management | Yes | Yes | Yes |

To configure the switch to operate in Mode 3, the following steps can be
followed::

[ 3885.216832] sja1105 spi0.1: No more free subvlans
\* "maximum of 7 non-pvid VLANs per port": Decoding VLAN-tagged packets on the
CPU in mode 3 is possible through VLAN retagging of packets that go from the
switch to the CPU. In cross-chip topologies, the port that goes to the CPU
might also go to other switches. In that case, those other switches will see
only a retagged packet (which only has meaning for the CPU). So if they are
interested in this VLAN, they need to apply retagging in the reverse direction,
to recover the original value from it. This consumes extra hardware resources
for this switch. There is a maximum of 32 entries in the Retagging Table of
each switch device.
As an example, consider this cross-chip topology::
+-------------------------------------------------+
| Host SoC |
| +-------------------------+ |
| | DSA master for embedded | |
| | switch (non-sja1105) | |
| +--------+-------------------------+--------+ |

To reach the CPU, SJA1105 switch 1 (spi/spi2.1) uses the same port as is uses
to reach SJA1105 switch 2 (spi/spi2.2), which would be port 4 (not drawn).
Similarly for SJA1105 switch 2.

SJA1105 switch 1 consumes 1 retagging entry for each VLAN on each user port
towards the CPU. It also consumes 1 retagging entry for each non-pvid VLAN that
it is also interested in, which is configured on any port of any neighbor
switch.
In this case, SJA1105 switch 1 consumes a total of 11 retagging entries, as
follows:
- 8 retagging entries for VLANs 1 and 100 installed on its user ports
(``sw1p0`` - ``sw1p3``)
- 3 retagging entries for VLAN 100 installed on the user ports of SJA1105
switch 2 (``sw2p0`` - ``sw2p2``), because it also has ports that are
interested in it. The VLAN 1 is a pvid on SJA1105 switch 2 and does not need
reverse retagging.
SJA1105 switch 2 also consumes 11 retagging entries, but organized as follows:
- 7 retagging entries for the bridge VLANs on its user ports (``sw2p0`` -
``sw2p3``).
- 4 retagging entries for VLAN 100 installed on the user ports of SJA1105
switch 1 (``sw1p0`` - ``sw1p3``).

Segregating the switch ports in multiple bridges is supported (e.g. 2 + 2), but
all bridges should have the same level of VLAN awareness (either both have
``vlan_filtering`` 0, or both 1). Also an inevitable limitation of the fact
that VLAN awareness is global at the switch level is that once a bridge with
``vlan_filtering`` enslaves at least one switch port, the other un-bridged
ports are no longer available for standalone traffic termination.
``vlan_filtering`` 0, or both 1).
Topology and loop detection through STP is supported.
L2 FDB manipulation (add/delete/dump) is currently possible for the first
generation devices. Aging time of FDB entries, as well as enabling fully static
management (no address learning and no flooding of unknown traffic) is not yet
configurable in the driver.
A special comment about bridging with other netdevices (illustrated with an
example):
A board has eth0, eth1, swp0@eth1, swp1@eth1, swp2@eth1, swp3@eth1.
The switch ports (swp0-3) are under br0.
It is desired that eth0 is turned into another switched port that communicates
with swp0-3.
If br0 has vlan_filtering 0, then eth0 can simply be added to br0 with the
intended results.
If br0 has vlan_filtering 1, then a new br1 interface needs to be created that
enslaves eth0 and eth1 (the DSA master of the switch ports). This is because in
this mode, the switch ports beneath br0 are not capable of regular traffic, and
are only used as a conduit for switchdev operations.
