[PATCH v3 0/3] net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: add support for VLAN Table Unit

From: Vivien Didelot

Hi all,

This patchset brings full support for hardware VLANs in DSA, and the Marvell
88E6xxx compatible switch chips.

The first patch adds the VTU operations to the mv88e6xxx code, as well as a
"vtu" debugfs file to read and modify the hardware VLAN table.

The second patch adds the glue between DSA and the switchdev VLAN objects.

The third patch finally implements the necessary functions in the mv88e6xxx
code to interact with the hardware VLAN through switchdev, from userspace
commands such as "bridge vlan".

Below is an example of what can be done with this patchset.

"VID 550: 1t 3u"
"VID 1000: 2t"
"VID 1200: 2t 4t"

The VLAN setup above can be achieved with the following bridge commands:

bridge vlan add vid 550 dev swp1 master
bridge vlan add vid 550 dev swp3 master untagged pvid
bridge vlan add vid 1000 dev swp2 master
bridge vlan add vid 1200 dev swp2 master
bridge vlan add vid 1200 dev swp4 master

Removing the port 1 from VLAN 550 is done with:

bridge vlan del vid 550 dev swp1

The bridge command would output the following setup:

# bridge vlan
port vlan ids
swp0 None
swp0
swp1 None
swp1
swp2 1000
1200

swp2 1000
1200

swp3 550 PVID Egress Untagged

swp3 550 PVID Egress Untagged

swp4 1200

swp4 1200

br0 None

Assuming that swp5 is the CPU port, the "vtu" debugfs file would show:

# cat /sys/kernel/debug/dsa0/vtu
VID FID SID 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
550 550 0 x x x u x t x
1000 1000 0 x x t x x t x
1200 1200 0 x x t x t t x

Cheers,
-v
