c4b364ce12 net: dsa: free skb->cb usage in core driver
Free skb->cb usage in core driver and let device drivers decide to
use or not. The reason having a DSA_SKB_CB(skb)->clone was because
dsa_skb_tx_timestamp() which may set the clone pointer was called
before p->xmit() which would use the clone if any, and the device
driver has no way to initialize the clone pointer.

This patch just put memset(skb->cb, 0, sizeof(skb->cb)) at beginning
of dsa_slave_xmit(). Some new features in the future, like one-step
timestamp may need more bytes of skb->cb to use in
dsa_skb_tx_timestamp(), and p->xmit().

d8ea7ff399 net: mscc: ocelot: Add support for MRP
Add basic support for MRP. The HW will just trap all MRP frames on the
ring ports to CPU and allow the SW to process them. In this way it is
possible to for this node to behave both as MRM and MRC.

Current limitations are:
- it doesn't support Interconnect roles.
- it supports only a single ring.
- the HW should be able to do forwarding of MRP Test frames so the SW
  will not need to do this. So it would be able to have the role MRC
  without SW support.

7c4bb540e9 net: dsa: tag_ocelot: create separate tagger for Seville
The ocelot tagger is a hot mess currently, it relies on memory
initialized by the attached driver for basic frame transmission.
This is against all that DSA tagging protocols stand for, which is that
the transmission and reception of a DSA-tagged frame, the data path,
should be independent from the switch control path, because the tag
protocol is in principle hot-pluggable and reusable across switches
(even if in practice it wasn't until very recently). But if another
driver like dsa_loop wants to make use of tag_ocelot, it couldn't.

This was done to have common code between Felix and Ocelot, which have
one bit difference in the frame header format. Quoting from commit
67c2404922 ("net: dsa: felix: create a template for the DSA tags on
xmit"):

    Other alternatives have been analyzed, such as:
    - Create a separate tag_seville.c: too much code duplication for just 1
      bit field difference.
    - Create a separate DSA_TAG_PROTO_SEVILLE under tag_ocelot.c, just like
      tag_brcm.c, which would have a separate .xmit function. Again, too
      much code duplication for just 1 bit field difference.
    - Allocate the template from the init function of the tag_ocelot.c
      module, instead of from the driver: couldn't figure out a method of
      accessing the correct port template corresponding to the correct
      tagger in the .xmit function.

The really interesting part is that Seville should have had its own
tagging protocol defined - it is not compatible on the wire with Ocelot,
even for that single bit. In principle, a packet generated by
DSA_TAG_PROTO_OCELOT when booted on NXP LS1028A would look in a certain
way, but when booted on NXP T1040 it would look differently. The reverse
is also true: a packet generated by a Seville switch would be
interpreted incorrectly by Wireshark if it was told it was generated by
an Ocelot switch.

Actually things are a bit more nuanced. If we concentrate only on the
DSA tag, what I said above is true, but Ocelot/Seville also support an
optional DSA tag prefix, which can be short or long, and it is possible
to distinguish the two taggers based on an integer constant put in that
prefix. Nonetheless, creating a separate tagger is still justified,
since the tag prefix is optional, and without it, there is again no way
to distinguish.

Claiming backwards binary compatibility is a bit more tough, since I've
already changed the format of tag_ocelot once, in commit 5124197ce5
("net: dsa: tag_ocelot: use a short prefix on both ingress and egress").
Therefore I am not very concerned with treating this as a bugfix and
backporting it to stable kernels (which would be another mess due to the
fact that there would be lots of conflicts with the other DSA_TAG_PROTO*
definitions). It's just simpler to say that the string values of the
taggers have ABI value starting with kernel 5.12, which will be when the
changing of tag protocol via /sys/class/net/<dsa-master>/dsa/tagging
goes live.

40d3f295b5 net: mscc: ocelot: use common tag parsing code with DSA
The Injection Frame Header and Extraction Frame Header that the switch
prepends to frames over the NPI port is also prepended to frames
delivered over the CPU port module's queues.

Let's unify the handling of the frame headers by making the ocelot
driver call some helpers exported by the DSA tagger. Among other things,
this allows us to get rid of the strange cpu_to_be32 when transmitting
the Injection Frame Header on ocelot, since the packing API uses
network byte order natively (when "quirks" is 0).

The comments above ocelot_gen_ifh talk about setting pop_cnt to 3, and
the cpu extraction queue mask to something, but the code doesn't do it,
so we don't do it either.

bbed0bbddd net: dsa: tag_8021q: add VLANs to the master interface too
The whole purpose of tag_8021q is to send VLAN-tagged traffic to the
CPU, from which the driver can decode the source port and switch id.

Currently this only works if the VLAN filtering on the master is
disabled. Change that by explicitly adding code to tag_8021q.c to add
the VLANs corresponding to the tags to the filter of the master
interface.

Because we now need to call vlan_vid_add, then we also need to hold the
RTNL mutex. Propagate that requirement to the callers of dsa_8021q_setup
and modify the existing call sites as appropriate. Note that one call
path, sja1105_best_effort_vlan_filtering_set -> sja1105_vlan_filtering
-> sja1105_setup_8021q_tagging, was already holding this lock.

5899ee367a net: dsa: tag_8021q: add a context structure
While working on another tag_8021q driver implementation, some things
became apparent:

- It is not mandatory for a DSA driver to offload the tag_8021q VLANs by
  using the VLAN table per se. For example, it can add custom TCAM rules
  that simply encapsulate RX traffic, and redirect & decapsulate rules
  for TX traffic. For such a driver, it makes no sense to receive the
  tag_8021q configuration through the same callback as it receives the
  VLAN configuration from the bridge and the 8021q modules.

- Currently, sja1105 (the only tag_8021q user) sets a
  priv->expect_dsa_8021q variable to distinguish between the bridge
  calling, and tag_8021q calling. That can be improved, to say the
  least.

- The crosschip bridging operations are, in fact, stateful already. The
  list of crosschip_links must be kept by the caller and passed to the
  relevant tag_8021q functions.

So it would be nice if the tag_8021q configuration was more
self-contained. This patch attempts to do that.

Create a struct dsa_8021q_context which encapsulates a struct
dsa_switch, and has 2 function pointers for adding and deleting a VLAN.
These will replace the previous channel to the driver, which was through
the .port_vlan_add and .port_vlan_del callbacks of dsa_switch_ops.

Also put the list of crosschip_links into this dsa_8021q_context.
Drivers that don't support cross-chip bridging can simply omit to
initialize this list, as long as they dont call any cross-chip function.

The sja1105_vlan_add and sja1105_vlan_del functions are refactored into
a smaller sja1105_vlan_add_one, which now has 2 entry points:
- sja1105_vlan_add, from struct dsa_switch_ops
- sja1105_dsa_8021q_vlan_add, from the tag_8021q ops
But even this change is fairly trivial. It just reflects the fact that
for sja1105, the VLANs from these 2 channels end up in the same hardware
table. However that is not necessarily true in the general sense (and
that's the reason for making this change).

The rest of the patch is mostly plain refactoring of "ds" -> "ctx". The
dsa_8021q_context structure needs to be propagated because adding a VLAN
is now done through the ops function pointers inside of it.

3eaae1d05f net: dsa: tag_8021q: support up to 8 VLANs per port using sub-VLANs
For switches that support VLAN retagging, such as sja1105, we extend
dsa_8021q by encoding a "sub-VLAN" into the remaining 3 free bits in the
dsa_8021q tag.

A sub-VLAN is nothing more than a number in the range 0-7, which serves
as an index into a per-port driver lookup table. The sub-VLAN value of
zero means that traffic is untagged (this is also backwards-compatible
with dsa_8021q without retagging).

The switch should be configured to retag VLAN-tagged traffic that gets
transmitted towards the CPU port (and towards the CPU only). Example:

bridge vlan add dev sw1p0 vid 100

The switch retags frames received on port 0, going to the CPU, and
having VID 100, to the VID of 1104 (0x0450). In dsa_8021q language:

 | 11  | 10  |  9  |  8  |  7  |  6  |  5  |  4  |  3  |  2  |  1  |  0  |
 +-----------+-----+-----------------+-----------+-----------------------+
 |    DIR    | SVL |    SWITCH_ID    |  SUBVLAN  |          PORT         |
 +-----------+-----+-----------------+-----------+-----------------------+

0x0450 means:
 - DIR = 0b01: this is an RX VLAN
 - SUBVLAN = 0b001: this is subvlan #1
 - SWITCH_ID = 0b001: this is switch 1 (see the name "sw1p0")
 - PORT = 0b0000: this is port 0 (see the name "sw1p0")

The driver also remembers the "1 -> 100" mapping. In the hotpath, if the
sub-VLAN from the tag encodes a non-untagged frame, this mapping is used
to create a VLAN hwaccel tag, with the value of 100.

38b5beeae7 net: dsa: sja1105: prepare tagger for handling DSA tags and VLAN simultaneously
In VLAN-unaware mode, sja1105 uses VLAN tags with a custom TPID of
0xdadb. While in the yet-to-be introduced best_effort_vlan_filtering
mode, it needs to work with normal VLAN TPID values.

A complication arises when we must transmit a VLAN-tagged packet to the
switch when it's in VLAN-aware mode. We need to construct a packet with
2 VLAN tags, and the switch will use the outer header for routing and
pop it on egress. But sadly, here the 2 hardware generations don't
behave the same:

- E/T switches won't pop an ETH_P_8021AD tag on egress, it seems
  (packets will remain double-tagged).
- P/Q/R/S switches will drop a packet with 2 ETH_P_8021Q tags (it looks
  like it tries to prevent VLAN hopping).

But looks like the reverse is also true:

- E/T switches have no problem popping the outer tag from packets with
  2 ETH_P_8021Q tags.
- P/Q/R/S will have no problem popping a single tag even if that is
  ETH_P_8021AD.

So it is clear that if we want the hardware to work with dsa_8021q
tagging in VLAN-aware mode, we need to send different TPIDs depending on
revision. Keep that information in priv->info->qinq_tpid.

The per-port tagger structure will hold an xmit_tpid value that depends
not only upon the qinq_tpid, but also upon the VLAN awareness state
itself (in case we must transmit using 0xdadb).

ec5ae61076 net: dsa: sja1105: save/restore VLANs using a delta commit method
Managing the VLAN table that is present in hardware will become very
difficult once we add a third operating state
(best_effort_vlan_filtering). That is because correct cleanup (not too
little, not too much) becomes virtually impossible, when VLANs can be
added from the bridge layer, from dsa_8021q for basic tagging, for
cross-chip bridging, as well as retagging rules for sub-VLANs and
cross-chip sub-VLANs. So we need to rethink VLAN interaction with the
switch in a more scalable way.

In preparation for that, use the priv->expect_dsa_8021q boolean to
classify any VLAN request received through .port_vlan_add or
.port_vlan_del towards either one of 2 internal lists: bridge VLANs and
dsa_8021q VLANs.

Then, implement a central sja1105_build_vlan_table method that creates a
VLAN configuration from scratch based on the 2 lists of VLANs kept by
the driver, and based on the VLAN awareness state. Currently, if we are
VLAN-unaware, install the dsa_8021q VLANs, otherwise the bridge VLANs.

Then, implement a delta commit procedure that identifies which VLANs
from this new configuration are actually different from the config
previously committed to hardware. We apply the delta through the dynamic
configuration interface (we don't reset the switch). The result is that
the hardware should see the exact sequence of operations as before this
patch.

This also helps remove the "br" argument passed to
dsa_8021q_crosschip_bridge_join, which it was only using to figure out
whether it should commit the configuration back to us or not, based on
the VLAN awareness state of the bridge. We can simplify that, by always
allowing those VLANs inside of our dsa_8021q_vlans list, and committing
those to hardware when necessary.

ac02a451a6 net: dsa: sja1105: implement cross-chip bridging operations
sja1105 uses dsa_8021q for DSA tagging, a format which is VLAN at heart
and which is compatible with cascading. A complete description of this
tagging format is in net/dsa/tag_8021q.c, but a quick summary is that
each external-facing port tags incoming frames with a unique pvid, and
this special VLAN is transmitted as tagged towards the inside of the
system, and as untagged towards the exterior. The tag encodes the switch
id and the source port index.

This means that cross-chip bridging for dsa_8021q only entails adding
the dsa_8021q pvids of one switch to the RX filter of the other
switches. Everything else falls naturally into place, as long as the
bottom-end of ports (the leaves in the tree) is comprised exclusively of
dsa_8021q-compatible (i.e. sja1105 switches). Otherwise, there would be
a chance that a front-panel switch transmits a packet tagged with a
dsa_8021q header, header which it wouldn't be able to remove, and which
would hence "leak" out.

The only use case I tested (due to lack of board availability) was when
the sja1105 switches are part of disjoint trees (however, this doesn't
change the fact that multiple sja1105 switches still need unique switch
identifiers in such a system). But in principle, even "true" single-tree
setups (with DSA links) should work just as fine, except for a small
change which I can't test: dsa_towards_port should be used instead of
dsa_upstream_port (I made the assumption that the routing port that any
sja1105 should use towards its neighbours is the CPU port. That might
not hold true in other setups).

Not only did this wheel did not need reinventing, but there is also
an issue with it: It doesn't remove the VLAN header in a way that
preserves the L2 payload checksum when that is being provided by the DSA

removing the header, and for the pull afterwards. But the current
implementation is quite dizzying, with pulls followed immediately
afterwards by pushes, the memmove is done before the push, etc.  This
makes a DSA master with RX checksumming offload to print stack traces
with the infamous 'hw csum failure' message.

So remove the dsa_8021q_remove_header function and replace it with
something that actually works with inet checksumming.

a68578c20a net: dsa: Make deferred_xmit private to sja1105
There are 3 things that are wrong with the DSA deferred xmit mechanism:

1. Its introduction has made the DSA hotpath ever so slightly more
   inefficient for everybody, since DSA_SKB_CB(skb)->deferred_xmit needs
   to be initialized to false for every transmitted frame, in order to
   figure out whether the driver requested deferral or not (a very rare
   occasion, rare even for the only driver that does use this mechanism:
   sja1105). That was necessary to avoid kfree_skb from freeing the skb.

2. Because L2 PTP is a link-local protocol like STP, it requires
   management routes and deferred xmit with this switch. But as opposed
   to STP, the deferred work mechanism needs to schedule the packet
   rather quickly for the TX timstamp to be collected in time and sent
   to user space. But there is no provision for controlling the
   scheduling priority of this deferred xmit workqueue. Too bad this is
   a rather specific requirement for a feature that nobody else uses
   (more below).

3. Perhaps most importantly, it makes the DSA core adhere a bit too
   much to the NXP company-wide policy "Innovate Where It Doesn't
   Matter". The sja1105 is probably the only DSA switch that requires
   some frames sent from the CPU to be routed to the slave port via an
   out-of-band configuration (register write) rather than in-band (DSA
   tag). And there are indeed very good reasons to not want to do that:
   if that out-of-band register is at the other end of a slow bus such
   as SPI, then you limit that Ethernet flow's throughput to effectively
   the throughput of the SPI bus. So hardware vendors should definitely
   not be encouraged to design this way. We do _not_ want more
   widespread use of this mechanism.

Luckily we have a solution for each of the 3 issues:

For 1, we can just remove that variable in the skb->cb and counteract
the effect of kfree_skb with skb_get, much to the same effect. The
advantage, of course, being that anybody who doesn't use deferred xmit
doesn't need to do any extra operation in the hotpath.

For 2, we can create a kernel thread for each port's deferred xmit work.
If the user switch ports are named swp0, swp1, swp2, the kernel threads
will be named swp0_xmit, swp1_xmit, swp2_xmit (there appears to be a 15
character length limit on kernel thread names). With this, the user can
change the scheduling priority with chrt $(pidof swp2_xmit).

For 3, we can actually move the entire implementation to the sja1105
driver.

So this patch deletes the generic implementation from the DSA core and
adds a new one, more adequate to the requirements of PTP TX
timestamping, in sja1105_main.c.

The description from the comment I've just deleted in this commit is
still true: when more than 1 management slot is active at the same time,
the switch will match frames incoming [from the CPU port] on the lowest
numbered management slot that matches the frame's DMAC.

My issue was that one was not supposed to statically assign each port a
slot. Yes, there are 4 slots and also 4 non-CPU ports, but that is a
mere coincidence.

Instead, the switch can be used like this: every management frame gets a
slot at the right of the most recently assigned slot:

Send mgmt frame 1 through S0:    S0 x  x  x
Send mgmt frame 2 through S1:    S0 S1 x  x
Send mgmt frame 3 through S2:    S0 S1 S2 x
Send mgmt frame 4 through S3:    S0 S1 S2 S3

The difference compared to the old usage is that the transmission of
frames 1-4 doesn't need to wait until the completion of the management
route. It is safe to use a slot to the right of the most recently used
one, because by protocol nobody will program a slot to your left and
"steal" your route towards the correct egress port.

So there is a potential throughput benefit here.

But mgmt frame 5 has no more free slot to use, so it has to wait until
_all_ of S0, S1, S2, S3 are full, in order to use S0 again.

And that's actually exactly the problem: I was looking for something
that would bring more predictable transmission latency, but this is
exactly the opposite: 3 out of 4 frames would be transmitted quicker,
but the 4th would draw the short straw and have a worse worst-case
latency than before.

Useless.

Things are made even worse by PTP TX timestamping, which is something I
won't go deeply into here. Suffice to say that the fact there is a
driver-level lock on the SPI bus offsets any potential throughput gains
that parallelism might bring.

So there's no going back to the multi-slot scheme, remove the
"mgmt_slot" variable from sja1105_port and the dummy static assignment
made at probe time.

While passing by, also remove the assignment to casc_port altogether.
Don't pretend that we support cascaded setups.

Enabling RX timestamping will logically disturb the fastpath (processing
of meta frames). Replace bool hwts_rx_en with a bit that is checked
atomically from the fastpath and temporarily unset from the sleepable
context during a change of the RX timestamping process (a destructive
operation anyways, requires switch reset).
If found unset, the fastpath (net/dsa/tag_sja1105.c) will just drop any
received meta frame and not take the meta_lock at all.

f3097be21b net: dsa: sja1105: Add a state machine for RX timestamping
Meta frame reception relies on the hardware keeping its promise that it
will send no other traffic towards the CPU port between a link-local
frame and a meta frame.  Otherwise there is no other way to associate
the meta frame with the link-local frame it's holding a timestamp of.
The receive function is made stateful, and buffers a timestampable frame
until its meta frame arrives, then merges the two, drops the meta and
releases the link-local frame up the stack.
