net: bridge: vlan: add per-vlan state

2020-01-24T11:58:14+00:00

The first per-vlan option added is state, it is needed for EVPN and for
per-vlan STP. The state allows to control the forwarding on per-vlan
basis. The vlan state is considered only if the port state is forwarding
in order to avoid conflicts and be consistent. br_allowed_egress is
called only when the state is forwarding, but the ingress case is a bit
more complicated due to the fact that we may have the transition between
port:BR_STATE_FORWARDING -> vlan:BR_STATE_LEARNING which should still
allow the bridge to learn from the packet after vlan filtering and it will
be dropped after that. Also to optimize the pvid state check we keep a
copy in the vlan group to avoid one lookup. The state members are
modified with *_ONCE() to annotate the lockless access.

net: bridge: vlan: add basic option setting support

2020-01-24T11:58:14+00:00

This patch adds support for option modification of single vlans and
ranges. It allows to only modify options, i.e. skip create/delete by
using the BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO_ONLY_OPTS flag. When working with a range
option changes we try to pack the notifications as much as possible.

v2: do full port (all vlans) notification only when creating/deleting
    vlans for compatibility, rework the range detection when changing
    options, add more verbose extack errors and check if a vlan should
    be used (br_vlan_should_use checks)

net: bridge: vlan: add rtm range support

2020-01-15T12:48:18+00:00

Add a new vlandb nl attribute - BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY_RANGE which causes
RTM_NEWVLAN/DELVAN to act on a range. Dumps now automatically compress
similar vlans into ranges. This will be also used when per-vlan options
are introduced and vlans' options match, they will be put into a single
range which is encapsulated in one netlink attribute. We need to run
similar checks as br_process_vlan_info() does because these ranges will
be used for options setting and they'll be able to skip
br_process_vlan_info().

net: bridge: vlan: add rtm definitions and dump support

2020-01-15T12:48:17+00:00

This patch adds vlan rtm definitions:
 - NEWVLAN: to be used for creating vlans, setting options and
   notifications
 - DELVLAN: to be used for deleting vlans
 - GETVLAN: used for dumping vlan information

Dumping vlans which can span multiple messages is added now with basic
information (vid and flags). We use nlmsg_parse() to validate the header
length in order to be able to extend the message with filtering
attributes later.

net: bridge: add STP xstats

2019-12-15T04:02:36+00:00

This adds rx_bpdu, tx_bpdu, rx_tcn, tx_tcn, transition_blk,
transition_fwd xstats counters to the bridge ports copied over via
netlink, providing useful information for STP.

net: bridge: mcast: add delete due to fast-leave mdb flag

2019-07-31T23:13:40+00:00

In user-space there's no way to distinguish why an mdb entry was deleted
and that is a problem for daemons which would like to keep the mdb in
sync with remote ends (e.g. mlag) but would also like to converge faster.
In almost all cases we'd like to age-out the remote entry for performance
and convergence reasons except when fast-leave is enabled. In that case we
want explicit immediate remote delete, thus add mdb flag which is set only
when the entry is being deleted due to fast-leave.

net: bridge: add no_linklocal_learn bool option

2018-11-27T23:04:15+00:00

Use the new boolopt API to add an option which disables learning from
link-local packets. The default is kept as before and learning is
enabled. This is a simple map from a boolopt bit to a bridge private
flag that is tested before learning.

v2: pass NULL for extack via sysfs

net: bridge: add support for user-controlled bool options

2018-11-27T23:04:15+00:00

We have been adding many new bridge options, a big number of which are
boolean but still take up netlink attribute ids and waste space in the skb.
Recently we discussed learning from link-local packets[1] and decided
yet another new boolean option will be needed, thus introducing this API
to save some bridge nl space.
The API supports changing the value of multiple boolean options at once
via the br_boolopt_multi struct which has an optmask (which options to
set, bit per opt) and optval (options' new values). Future boolean
options will only be added to the br_boolopt_id enum and then will have
to be handled in br_boolopt_toggle/get. The API will automatically
add the ability to change and export them via netlink, sysfs can use the
single boolopt function versions to do the same. The behaviour with
failing/succeeding is the same as with normal netlink option changing.

If an option requires mapping to internal kernel flag or needs special
configuration to be enabled then it should be handled in
br_boolopt_toggle. It should also be able to retrieve an option's current
state via br_boolopt_get.

v2: WARN_ON() on unsupported option as that shouldn't be possible and
    also will help catch people who add new options without handling
    them for both set and get. Pass down extack so if an option desires
    it could set it on error and be more user-friendly.

License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a license

2017-11-02T10:20:11+00:00

Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be.  This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.

Update these files with an SPDX license identifier.  The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.

GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.

Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier.  The format
is:
        ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)

SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text.  The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.  See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

bridge: uapi: add per vlan tunnel info

2017-02-03T20:21:21+00:00

New nested netlink attribute to associate tunnel info per vlan.
This is used by bridge driver to send tunnel metadata to
bridge ports in vlan tunnel mode. This patch also adds new per
port flag IFLA_BRPORT_VLAN_TUNNEL to enable vlan tunnel mode.
off by default.

One example use for this is a vxlan bridging gateway or vtep
which maps vlans to vn-segments (or vnis). User can configure
per-vlan tunnel information which the bridge driver can use
to bridge vlan into the corresponding vn-segment.
