Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 0/9] Remove skb_mac_header() dependency in DSA xmit path

Eric started working on removing skb_mac_header() assumptions from the
networking xmit path, and I offered to help for DSA:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/[email protected]/

The majority of this patch set is a straightforward replacement of
skb_mac_header() with skb->data (hidden either behind skb_eth_hdr(), or
behind skb_vlan_eth_hdr()). The only patch which is more "interesting"
is 9/9.

Another potential caller of __skb_vlan_pop() on xmit (and therefore
also of skb_mac_header()) is tcf_vlan_act(), but I haven't had the time
to investigate that (enough to submit changes other than what's here).

v1->v2:
- 09/09: document the vlan_tci argument of vlan_remove_tag() in the kdoc

v1 at:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/[email protected]/

Cc: Madalin Bucur <[email protected]>

skb_vlan_eth_hdr() to get to the VLAN header instead, which assumes it's

Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 3/9] net: dpaa: avoid one skb_reset_mac_header() in dpaa_enable_tx_csum()

It appears that dpaa_enable_tx_csum() only calls skb_reset_mac_header()
to get to the VLAN header using skb_mac_header().

We can use skb_vlan_eth_hdr() to get to the VLAN header based on
skb->data directly. This avoids spending a few cycles to set
skb->mac_header.

Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 1/9] net: vlan: don't adjust MAC header in __vlan_insert_inner_tag() unless set

This is a preparatory change for the deletion of skb_reset_mac_header(skb)
from __dev_queue_xmit(). After that deletion, skb_mac_header(skb) will
no longer be set in TX paths, from which __vlan_insert_inner_tag() can
still be called (perhaps indirectly).

If we don't make this change, then an unset MAC header (equal to ~0U)
will become set after the adjustment with VLAN_HLEN.

Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 2/9] net: vlan: introduce skb_vlan_eth_hdr()

Similar to skb_eth_hdr() introduced in commit 96cc4b69581d ("macvlan: do
not assume mac_header is set in macvlan_broadcast()"), let's introduce a
skb_vlan_eth_hdr() helper which can be used in TX-only code paths to get
to the VLAN header based on skb->data rather than based on the
skb_mac_header(skb).

We also consolidate the drivers that dereference skb->data to go through
this helper.

Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 6/9] net: dsa: tag_sja1105: don't rely on skb_mac_header() in TX paths

skb_mac_header() will no longer be available in the TX path when
reverting commit 6d1ccff62780 ("net: reset mac header in
dev_start_xmit()"). As preparation for that, let's use
skb_vlan_eth_hdr() to get to the VLAN header instead, which assumes it's
located at skb->data (assumption which holds true here).

Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 8/9] net: dsa: update TX path comments to not mention skb_mac_header()

Once commit 6d1ccff62780 ("net: reset mac header in dev_start_xmit()")
will be reverted, it will no longer be true that skb->data points at
skb_mac_header(skb) - since the skb->mac_header will not be set - so
stop saying that, and just say that it points to the MAC header.

I've reviewed vlan_insert_tag() and it does not *actually* depend on
skb_mac_header(), so reword that to avoid the confusion.

Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 9/9] net: dsa: tag_ocelot: call only the relevant portion of __skb_vlan_pop() on TX

ocelot_xmit_get_vlan_info() calls __skb_vlan_pop() as the most
appropriate helper I could find which strips away a VLAN header.
That's all I need it to do, but __skb_vlan_pop() has more logic, which
will become incompatible with the future revert of commit 6d1ccff62780
("net: reset mac header in dev_start_xmit()").

Namely, it performs a sanity check on skb_mac_header(), which will stop
being set after the above revert, so it will return an error instead of
removing the VLAN tag.

ocelot_xmit_get_vlan_info() gets called in 2 circumstances:

(1) the port is under a VLAN-aware bridge and the bridge sends
VLAN-tagged packets

(2) the port is under a VLAN-aware bridge and somebody else (an 8021q
upper) sends VLAN-tagged packets (using a VID that isn't in the
bridge vlan tables)

In case (1), there is actually no bug to defend against, because
br_dev_xmit() calls skb_reset_mac_header() and things continue to work.

However, in case (2), illustrated using the commands below, it can be
seen that our intervention is needed, since __skb_vlan_pop() complains:

$ ip link add br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1 && ip link set br0 up
$ ip link set $eth master br0 && ip link set $eth up
$ ip link add link $eth name $eth.100 type vlan id 100 && ip link set $eth.100 up
$ ip addr add 192.168.100.1/24 dev $eth.100

I could fend off the checks in __skb_vlan_pop() with some
skb_mac_header_was_set() calls, but seeing how few callers of
__skb_vlan_pop() there are from TX paths, that seems rather
unproductive.

As an alternative solution, extract the bare minimum logic to strip a
VLAN header, and move it to a new helper named vlan_remove_tag(), close
to the definition of vlan_insert_tag(). Document it appropriately and
make ocelot_xmit_get_vlan_info() call this smaller helper instead.

Seeing that it doesn't appear illegal to test skb->protocol in the TX
path, I guess it would be a good for vlan_remove_tag() to also absorb
the vlan_set_encap_proto() function call.
