[PATCH net-next v2] net: dsa: make "label" property optional for dsa2
From: Vivien Didelot
Date: Sun Jan 08 2017 - 18:16:48 EST
In the new DTS bindings for DSA (dsa2), the "ethernet" and "link"
phandles are respectively mandatory and exclusive to CPU port and DSA
link device tree nodes.
Simplify dsa2.c a bit by checking the presence of such phandle instead
of checking the redundant "label" property.
Then the Linux philosophy for Ethernet switch ports is to expose them to
userspace as standard NICs by default. Thus use the standard enumerated
"eth%d" device name if no "label" property is provided for a user port.
This allows to save DTS files from subjective net device names.
Here's an example on a ZII Dev Rev B board without "label" properties:
# ip link | grep ': ' | cut -d: -f2
lo
eth0
eth1
eth2@eth1
eth3@eth1
eth4@eth1
eth5@eth1
eth6@eth1
eth7@eth1
eth8@eth1
eth9@eth1
eth10@eth1
eth11@eth1
eth12@eth1
If one wants to rename an interface, udev rules can be used as usual, as
suggested in the switchdev documentation:
# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/90-net-dsa.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="dsa", NAME="sw$attr{phys_switch_id}p$attr{phys_port_id}"
# ip link | awk '/@eth/ { split($2,a,"@"); print a[1]; }'
sw00000000p00
sw00000000p01
sw00000000p02
sw01000000p00
sw01000000p01
sw01000000p02
sw02000000p00
sw02000000p01
sw02000000p02
sw02000000p03
sw02000000p04
Until the printing of netdev_phys_item_id structures is fixed in
net/core/net-sysfs.c, an external helper can be used like this:
# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/90-net-dsa.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="dsa", PROGRAM="/lib/udev/dsanitizer $attr{phys_switch_id} $attr{phys_port_id}", NAME="$result"
# cat /lib/udev/dsanitizer
#!/bin/sh
echo $1 | sed -e 's,^0*,,' -e 's,0*$,,' | xargs printf sw%d
echo $2 | sed -e 's,^0*,,' | xargs printf p%d
# ip link | awk '/@eth/ { split($2,a,"@"); print a[1]; }'
sw0p0
sw0p1
sw0p2
sw1p0
sw1p1
sw1p2
sw2p0
sw2p1
sw2p2
sw2p3
sw2p4
Of course the current behavior is unchanged, and the optional "label"
property for user ports has precedence over the enumerated name.
