I don't believe there is a way for the switch port driver to figure out whether an AF_BRIDGE RTM_SETLINK message was intended to the bridge or to the specific port targeted. It could only make such decision separately for each attribute configured. When an explicit bridge instance is present, directing the netlink message to the bridge with SELF flag implies bridge property; Directing it to a bridge port netdev with MASTER implies bridge port property. > Do bridges and users actually enable learning on a per port basis? My understanding is that learning configuration is already on a port by port basis. That's what I see in the rocker driver. The LERNING and LEARNING_SYNC are stored in the brport_flags of a rocker_port structure. My statement was that synchronization is needed between bridge port configuration and equivalent switch port attribute. The switch port driver implementing bridge setlink NDOs has to take care of such synchronization. > > > int sw_driver_br_setlink(struct net_device *dev, struct nlmsghdr *nlh) > > { > > struct nlattr *protinfo; > > protinfo = nlmsg_find_attr(nlh, sizeof(struct ifinfomsg), > > IFLA_PROTINFO); > > if (protinfo) { > > struct nlattr *attr; > > attr = nla_find_nested(protinfo, IFLA_BRPORT_LEARNING); > > if (attr) { > > if (nla_len(attr) >= sizeof(u8)) { > > if (nla_get_u8(attr)) > > brport_flags |= BR_LEARNING; > > else > > brport_flags &= ~BR_LEARNING; > > } > > } > > /* > > * Map bridge port attributes to driver-specific port attributes > > */ > > } > > return 0; > > } > > > >> > >>>> + IFLA_ATTR_LOOPBACK, > >>>> + IFLA_ATTR_BCAST_FLOODING, > >>>> + IFLA_ATTR_UCAST_FLOODING, > >>>> + IFLA_ATTR_MCAST_FLOODING, > >>>> + __IFLA_ATTR_MAX > >>>> +}; > >>>> + > >>>> +#define IFLA_ATTR_MAX (__IFLA_ATTR_MAX - 1) > >>>> + > >>>> #endif /* _UAPI_LINUX_IF_LINK_H */ diff --git > >>>> a/net/core/rtnetlink.c b/net/core/rtnetlink.c index > >>>> eaa057f..c0d1c45 100644 > >>>> --- a/net/core/rtnetlink.c > >>>> +++ b/net/core/rtnetlink.c > >>>> @@ -1389,6 +1389,46 @@ static int validate_linkmsg(struct > >>>> net_device > >>> *dev, struct nlattr *tb[]) > >>>> return 0; > >>>> } > >>>> > >>>> +#ifdef CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV > >>>> +static int do_setswcfg(struct net_device *dev, struct nlattr *attr) { > >>>> + int rem, err = -EINVAL; > >>>> + struct nlattr *v; > >>>> + const struct net_device_ops *ops = dev->netdev_ops; > >>>> + > >>>> + nla_for_each_nested(v, attr, rem) { > >>>> + u32 op = nla_type(v); > >>>> + u64 value = 0; > >>>> + > >>>> + switch (op) { > >>>> + case IFLA_ATTR_LEARNING: > >>>> + case IFLA_ATTR_LOOPBACK: > >>>> + case IFLA_ATTR_BCAST_FLOODING: > >>>> + case IFLA_ATTR_UCAST_FLOODING: > >>>> + case IFLA_ATTR_MCAST_FLOODING: { > >>>> + if (nla_len(v) < sizeof(value)) { > >>>> + err = -EINVAL; > >>>> + break; > >>>> + } > >>>> + > >>>> + value = nla_get_u64(v); > >>>> + err = ops->ndo_switch_port_set_cfg(dev, > >>>> + op, > >>>> + value); > >>>> + break; > >>>> + } > >>>> + default: > >>>> + err = -EINVAL; > >>>> + break; > >>>> + } > >>>> + if (err) > >>>> + break; > >>>> + } > >>>> + return err; > >>>> +} > >>>> + > >>>> +#endif > >>>> + > >>>> static int do_setvfinfo(struct net_device *dev, struct nlattr *attr) > >>>> { > >>>> int rem, err = -EINVAL; > >>>> @@ -1740,6 +1780,20 @@ static int do_setlink(const struct sk_buff > *skb, > >>>> status |= DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY; > >>>> } > >>>> } > >>>> +#ifdef CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV > >>>> + if (tb[IFLA_SWITCH_PORT_CFG]) { > >>>> + err = -EOPNOTSUPP; > >>>> + if (!ops->ndo_switch_port_set_cfg) > >>>> + goto errout; > >>>> + if (!ops->ndo_switch_parent_id_get) > >>>> + goto errout; > >>>> + err = do_setswcfg(dev, tb[IFLA_SWITCH_PORT_CFG]); > >>>> + if (err < 0) > >>>> + goto errout; > >>>> + > >>>> + status |= DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY; > >>>> + } > >>>> +#endif > >>>> err = 0; > >>>> > >>>> errout: > >> > >> -- > >> To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in > >> the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo > >> info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
