[PATCH RFC net 1/2] net: dsa: provide a way to exclude switch ports from VLAN untagging
From: Robert Hodaszi
Date: Sun Dec 15 2024 - 11:35:10 EST
Even if a switch driver sets 'untag_vlan_aware_bridge_pvid' or
'untag_bridge_pvid', it may not enable tagging on one or more ports
(VLAN-unaware port). Without a way to exclude these ports,
dsa_software_vlan_untag() untags packets it shouldn't, and so it
corrupts the packet.
That happens currently with the felix driver. The driver always sets
'untag_vlan_aware_bridge_pvid', but enables inner tags
(push_inner_tag=1) only when VLAN-filtering is enabled.
To exclude a port from untagging, set dp->not_tagged=1. The inverse
logic is to keep backward compatibility, and avoid the need to
potentially change currently working users.
Fixes: f1288fd7293b ("net: dsa: felix: fix VLAN tag loss on CPU reception with ocelot-8021q")
