From 9eb8eff0cf2f1e1afc0756bb30cb9746ba90dd07 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vladimir Oltean Date: Sun, 10 May 2020 19:37:40 +0300 Subject: net: bridge: allow enslaving some DSA master network devices Commit 8db0a2ee2c63 ("net: bridge: reject DSA-enabled master netdevices as bridge members") added a special check in br_if.c in order to check for a DSA master network device with a tagging protocol configured. This was done because back then, such devices, once enslaved in a bridge would become inoperative and would not pass DSA tagged traffic anymore due to br_handle_frame returning RX_HANDLER_CONSUMED. But right now we have valid use cases which do require bridging of DSA masters. One such example is when the DSA master ports are DSA switch ports themselves (in a disjoint tree setup). This should be completely equivalent, functionally speaking, from having multiple DSA switches hanging off of the ports of a switchdev driver. So we should allow the enslaving of DSA tagged master network devices. Instead of the regular br_handle_frame(), install a new function br_handle_frame_dummy() on these DSA masters, which returns RX_HANDLER_PASS in order to call into the DSA specific tagging protocol handlers, and lift the restriction from br_add_if.
