2014-12-02	rocker: implement L2 bridge offloading	Scott Feldman
	Add L2 bridge offloading support to rocker driver. Here, the Linux bridge driver is used to collect swdev ports into a tagged (or untagged) VLAN bridge. The switchdev will offload from the bridge driver the following L2 bridging functions: - Learning of neighbor MAC addresses on VLAN X Learned mac/vlan is installed in bridge FDB. (And removed when device unlearns mac/vlan). Learning must be turned off on each bridge port to disable the feature in the bridge driver. - Flooding of multicast/broadcast and unknown unicast pkts to (STP) active ports in bridge. The bridge driver is unaware of the flooding happening at the device level. Flooding must be turned off on each bridge port to disable the feature on the bridge driver. - STP port state is pushed down to driver/device. The bridge still processes STP BDPUs and maintains port STP state (for all VLANs in bridge), but the driver/device must be notified of port STP state change to program the device. Multiple (VLAN) bridges are supported. The device (implemented per the OF-DPA spec) must use a portion of the VLAN namespace for internal VLANs. Right now, the upper 255 VLANs (0xf00 to 0xffe) are used as internal VLAN IDs for untagged traffic and are not available as port VLANs. The driver uses the following interfaces: 1. To track VLAN add/del on ports in bridge: .ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid .ndo_vlan_rx_kill_vid 2. To track port add/del membership in bridge: NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER netdevice notifier 3. To catch static FDB entries installed on bridge/vlan by user using netlink: .ndo_fdb_add .ndo_fdb_del 4. To be notified on port STP state change: .ndo_switch_port_stp_update 5. To notify bridge driver on learned/forgotten mac/vlans on bridge port: br_fdb_external_learn_add br_fdb_external_learn_del Signed-off-by: Scott Feldman <sfeldma@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-12-02	rocker: implement rocker ofdpa flow table manipulation	Scott Feldman
	The rocker driver maintains 4 hash tables: flows, groups, FDB, and VLANs. Flow and group tables track the entries installed to OF-DPA tables, per the OF-DPA spec. See OF-DPA spec for full description of fields in each flow and group table. New table entries are pushed to the device with ADD cmd. Updated entries are pushed to the device with MOD cmd. For flow table entries, a crc32 key is made from fields of the particular field. For group table entries, the group_id is used as the key. The FDB table tracks fdb entries learned by the device or manually pushed to the bridge by the user. A crc32 key is made from the port/mac/vlan tuple for the fdb entry. The VLAN table tracks the ifindex-to-internal-vlan mapping for untagged pkts. On ingress, an untagged pkt is inserted with an internal VLAN ID based on the input port's current internal VLAN ID. The input port's internal VLAN will either be referenced by the port's ifindex, if not bridged, or the containing bridge's ifindex, if bridged. Since the ifindex space isn't within a fixed range, uses a hash table (with ifindex as key) to track internal VLAN ID for a given ifindex. The internal VLAN ID range is fixed and currently uses the upper 255 VLAN IDs, starting at 0xf00.

2014-12-02	rocker: introduce rocker switch driver	Jiri Pirko
	This patch introduces the first driver to benefit from the switchdev infrastructure and to implement newly introduced switch ndos. This is a driver for emulated switch chip implemented in qemu: https://github.com/sfeldma/qemu-rocker/ This patch is a result of joint work with Scott Feldman.
