[ Upstream commit ff91e1b68490b97c18c649b769618815eb945f11 ]

The cross-chip notifier boilerplate code meant to check the presence of
ds-&gt;ops-&gt;port_mrp_add_ring_role before calling it, but checked
ds-&gt;ops-&gt;port_mrp_add instead, before calling
ds-&gt;ops-&gt;port_mrp_add_ring_role.

Therefore, a driver which implements one operation but not the other
would trigger a NULL pointer dereference.

There isn't any such driver in DSA yet, so there is no reason to
backport the change. Issue found through code inspection.

Now that the rtnl_mutex is going away for dsa_port_{host_,}fdb_{add,del},
no one is serializing access to the address lists that DSA keeps for the
purpose of reference counting on shared ports (CPU and cascade ports).

It can happen for one dsa_switch_do_fdb_del to do list_del on a dp-&gt;fdbs
element while another dsa_switch_do_fdb_{add,del} is traversing dp-&gt;fdbs.
We need to avoid that.

Currently dp-&gt;mdbs is not at risk, because dsa_switch_do_mdb_{add,del}
still runs under the rtnl_mutex. But it would be nice if it would not
depend on that being the case. So let's introduce a mutex per port (the
address lists are per port too) and share it between dp-&gt;mdbs and
dp-&gt;fdbs.

The place where we put the locking is interesting. It could be tempting
to put a DSA-level lock which still serializes calls to
.port_fdb_{add,del}, but it would still not avoid concurrency with other
driver code paths that are currently under rtnl_mutex (.port_fdb_dump,
.port_fast_age). So it would add a very false sense of security (and
adding a global switch-wide lock in DSA to resynchronize with the
rtnl_lock is also counterproductive and hard).

So the locking is intentionally done only where the dp-&gt;fdbs and dp-&gt;mdbs
lists are traversed. That means, from a driver perspective, that
.port_fdb_add will be called with the dp-&gt;addr_lists_lock mutex held on
the CPU port, but not held on user ports. This is done so that driver
writers are not encouraged to rely on any guarantee offered by
dp-&gt;addr_lists_lock.

At present, when either of ds-&gt;ops-&gt;port_fdb_del() or ds-&gt;ops-&gt;port_mdb_del()
return a non-zero error code, we attempt to save the day and keep the
data structure associated with that switchdev object, as the deletion
procedure did not complete.

However, the way in which we do this is suspicious to the checker in
lib/refcount.c, who thinks it is buggy to increment a refcount that
became zero, and that this is indicative of a use-after-free.

<title>net: dsa: convert cross-chip notifiers to iterate using dp</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fac6abd5f13297ddeae7ff6eb903e933cffc071b</id>
<content type='text'>
The majority of cross-chip switch notifiers need to filter in some way
over the type of ports: some install VLANs etc on all cascade ports.

The difference is that the matching function, which filters by port
type, is separate from the function where the iteration happens. So this
patch needs to refactor the matching functions' prototypes as well, to
take the dp as argument.

In a future patch/series, I might convert dsa_towards_port to return a
struct dsa_port *dp too, but at the moment it is a bit entangled with
dsa_routing_port which is also used by mv88e6xxx and they both return an
int port. So keep dsa_towards_port the way it is and convert it into a
dp using dsa_to_port.

<content type='text'>
Ever since Vivien's conversion of the ds-&gt;ports array into a dst-&gt;ports
list, and the introduction of dsa_to_port, iterations through the ports
of a switch became quadratic whenever dsa_to_port was needed.

dsa_to_port can either be called directly, or indirectly through the
dsa_is_{user,cpu,dsa,unused}_port helpers.

Use the newly introduced dsa_switch_for_each_port() iteration macro
that works with the iterator variable being a struct dsa_port *dp
directly, and not an int i. It is an expensive variable to go from i to
dp, but cheap to go from dp to i.

This macro iterates through the entire ds-&gt;dst-&gt;ports list and filters
by the ports belonging just to the switch provided as argument.

Flip the sign of a return value check, thereby suppressing the following
spurious error:

  port 2 failed to notify DSA_NOTIFIER_BRIDGE_LEAVE: -EOPNOTSUPP

... which is emitted when removing an unoffloaded DSA switch port from a
bridge.

<title>net: dsa: let drivers state that they need VLAN filtering while standalone</title>

<id>urn:sha1:58adf9dcb15b99f047e80e10c85fb51ed3c88215</id>
<content type='text'>
As explained in commit e358bef7c392 ("net: dsa: Give drivers the chance
to veto certain upper devices"), the hellcreek driver uses some tricks
to comply with the network stack expectations: it enforces port
separation in standalone mode using VLANs. For untagged traffic,
bridging between ports is prevented by using different PVIDs, and for
VLAN-tagged traffic, it never accepts 8021q uppers with the same VID on
two ports, so packets with one VLAN cannot leak from one port to another.

That is almost fine*, and has worked because hellcreek relied on an
implicit behavior of the DSA core that was changed by the previous
patch: the standalone ports declare the 'rx-vlan-filter' feature as 'on
[fixed]'. Since most of the DSA drivers are actually VLAN-unaware in
standalone mode, that feature was actually incorrectly reflecting the
hardware/driver state, so there was a desire to fix it. This leaves the
hellcreek driver in a situation where it has to explicitly request this
behavior from the DSA framework.

We configure the ports as follows:

- Standalone: 'rx-vlan-filter' is on. An 8021q upper on top of a
  standalone hellcreek port will go through dsa_slave_vlan_rx_add_vid
  and will add a VLAN to the hardware tables, giving the driver the
  opportunity to refuse it through .port_prechangeupper.

- Bridged with vlan_filtering=0: 'rx-vlan-filter' is off. An 8021q upper
  on top of a bridged hellcreek port will not go through
  dsa_slave_vlan_rx_add_vid, because there will not be any attempt to
  offload this VLAN. The driver already disables VLAN awareness, so that
  upper should receive the traffic it needs.

- Bridged with vlan_filtering=1: 'rx-vlan-filter' is on. An 8021q upper
  on top of a bridged hellcreek port will call dsa_slave_vlan_rx_add_vid,
  and can again be vetoed through .port_prechangeupper.

*It is not actually completely fine, because if I follow through
correctly, we can have the following situation:

ip link add br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 0
ip link set lan0 master br0 # lan0 now becomes VLAN-unaware
ip link set lan0 nomaster # lan0 fails to become VLAN-aware again, therefore breaking isolation

This patch fixes that corner case by extending the DSA core logic, based
on this requested attribute, to change the VLAN awareness state of the
switch (port) when it leaves the bridge.

<title>net: dsa: properly fall back to software bridging</title>

<id>urn:sha1:67b5fb5db76dbbdbd7bbed220134c7be4217aed9</id>
<content type='text'>
If the driver does not implement .port_bridge_{join,leave}, then we must
fall back to standalone operation on that port, and trigger the error
path of dsa_port_bridge_join. This sets dp-&gt;bridge_dev = NULL.

In turn, having a non-NULL dp-&gt;bridge_dev when there is no offloading
support makes the following things go wrong:

- dsa_default_offload_fwd_mark make the wrong decision in setting
  skb-&gt;offload_fwd_mark. It should set skb-&gt;offload_fwd_mark = 0 for
  ports that don't offload the bridge, which should instruct the bridge
  to forward in software. But this does not happen, dp-&gt;bridge_dev is
  incorrectly set to point to the bridge, so the bridge is told that
  packets have been forwarded in hardware, which they haven't.

- switchdev objects (MDBs, VLANs) should not be offloaded by ports that
  don't offload the bridge. Standalone ports should behave as packet-in,
  packet-out and the bridge should not be able to manipulate the pvid of
  the port, or tag stripping on egress, or ingress filtering. This
  should already work fine because dsa_slave_port_obj_add has:

	case SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_VLAN:
		if (!dsa_port_offloads_bridge_port(dp, obj-&gt;orig_dev))
			return -EOPNOTSUPP;

		err = dsa_slave_vlan_add(dev, obj, extack);

  but since dsa_port_offloads_bridge_port works based on dp-&gt;bridge_dev,
  this is again sabotaging us.

All the above work in case the port has an unoffloaded LAG interface, so
this is well exercised code, we should apply it for plain unoffloaded
bridge ports too.
