Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== DSA changes for multiple CPU ports (part 4) Those who have been following part 1: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/20220511095020.562461-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/ part 2: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/20220521213743.2735445-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/ and part 3: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/20220819174820.3585002-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/ will know that I am trying to enable the second internal port pair from the NXP LS1028A Felix switch for DSA-tagged traffic via "ocelot-8021q". This series represents the final part of that effort. We have: - the introduction of new UAPI in the form of IFLA_DSA_MASTER, the iproute2 patch for which is here: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20220904190025.813574-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/ - preparation for LAG DSA masters in terms of suppressing some operations for masters in the DSA core that simply don't make sense when those masters are a bonding/team interface - handling all the net device events that occur between DSA and a LAG DSA master, including migration to a different DSA master when the current master joins a LAG, or the LAG gets destroyed - updating documentation - adding an implementation for NXP LS1028A, where things are insanely complicated due to hardware limitations. We have 2 tagging protocols: * the native "ocelot" protocol (NPI port mode). This does not support CPU ports in a LAG, and supports a single DSA master. The DSA master can be changed between eno2 (2.5G) and eno3 (1G), but all ports must be down during the changing process, and user ports assigned to the old DSA master will refuse to come up if the user requests that during a "transient" state. * the "ocelot-8021q" software-defined protocol, where the Ethernet ports connected to the CPU are not actually "god mode" ports as far as the hardware is concerned. So here, static assignment between user and CPU ports is possible by editing the PGID_SRC masks for the port-based forwarding matrix, and "CPU ports in a LAG" simply means "a LAG like any other". The series was regression-tested on LS1028A using the local_termination.sh kselftest, in most of the possible operating modes and tagging protocols. I have not done a detailed performance evaluation yet, but using LAG, is possible to exceed the termination bandwidth of a single CPU port in an iperf3 test with multiple senders and multiple receivers. v1 at: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/cover/20220830195932.683432-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/ Previous (older) RFC at: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20220523104256.3556016-1-olteanv@gmail.com/ ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220911010706.2137967-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
