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 -&gt; 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.

<title>net: bridge: fdb: eliminate extra port state tests from fast-path</title>

<content type='text'>
When commit df1c0b8468b3 ("[BRIDGE]: Packets leaking out of
disabled/blocked ports.") introduced the port state tests in
br_fdb_update() it was to avoid learning/refreshing from STP BPDUs, it was
also used to avoid learning/refreshing from user-space with NTF_USE. Those
two tests are done for every packet entering the bridge if it's learning,
but for the fast-path we already have them checked in br_handle_frame() and
is unnecessary to do it again. Thus push the checks to the unlikely cases
and drop them from br_fdb_update(), the new nbp_state_should_learn() helper
is used to determine if the port state allows br_fdb_update() to be called.
The two places which need to do it manually are:
 - user-space add call with NTF_USE set
 - link-local packet learning done in __br_handle_local_finish()

one test and one atomic bitop in the learning path.

lines and uses it to convert is_local to bitops.

We would cache ether dst pointer on input in br_handle_frame_finish but
after the neigh suppress code that could lead to a stale pointer since
both ipv4 and ipv6 suppress code do pskb_may_pull. This means we have to
always reload it after the suppress code so there's no point in having
it cached just retrieve it directly.

<title>net: bridge: fix per-port af_packet sockets</title>

<id>3b2e2904deb314cc77a2192f506f2fd44e3d10d0</id>
<content type='text'>
When the commit below was introduced it changed two visible things:
 - the skb was no longer passed through the protocol handlers with the
   original device
 - the skb was passed up the stack with skb-&gt;dev = bridge

The first change broke af_packet sockets on bridge ports. For example we
use them for hostapd which listens for ETH_P_PAE packets on the ports.
We discussed two possible fixes:
 - create a clone and pass it through NF_HOOK(), act on the original skb
   based on the result
 - somehow signal to the caller from the okfn() that it was called,
   meaning the skb is ok to be passed, which this patch is trying to
   implement via returning 1 from the bridge link-local okfn()

Note that we rely on the fact that NF_QUEUE/STOLEN would return 0 and
drop/error would return &lt; 0 thus the okfn() is called only when the
return was 1, so we signal to the caller that it was called by preserving
the return value from nf_hook().

Fixes: 8626c56c8279 ("bridge: fix potential use-after-free when hook returns QUEUE or STOLEN verdict")
