DSA assumes that a bridge which has vlan filtering disabled is not
vlan aware, and ignores all vlan configuration. However, the kernel
software bridge code allows configuration in this state.

This causes the kernel's idea of the bridge vlan state and the
hardware state to disagree, so "bridge vlan show" indicates a correct
configuration but the hardware lacks all configuration. Even worse,
enabling vlan filtering on a DSA bridge immediately blocks all traffic
which, given the output of "bridge vlan show", is very confusing.

Provide an option that drivers can set to indicate they want to receive
vlan configuration even when vlan filtering is disabled. This is safe
for Marvell DSA bridges, which do not look up ingress traffic in the
VTU if the port is in 8021Q disabled state. Whether this change is
suitable for all DSA bridges is not known.

It is confusing to add a Marvell specific term (VTU) in the generic dsa_switch
structure to bypass the fact that VLAN configuration in hardware was already
bypassed for some reasons until vlan filtering is turned on. As you said,
simply offloading the VLAN configuration in hardware and only turning the
ports' 802.1Q mode to Secure once vlan_filtering is flipped to 1 should work
in theory for both VLAN filtering aware and unaware scenarios, but this was
causing problems if I'm not mistaken, I'll try to dig this out.

In the meantime, does the issue you're trying to solve here happens if you
create a vlan-filtering aware bridge in the first place, before any VLAN
configuration? i.e.:

    # ip link add name br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1
    # ip link set master br0 dev lan1 up
    # bridge vlan add ...


Thank you,
Vivien

That will work okay because then you do get around the restrictions
added by 2ea7a679ca2abd251c1ec03f20508619707e1749 ("net: dsa: Don't add
vlans when vlan filtering is disabled") and you will get VLAN objects
programming request to flow down your DSA driver. AFAICT, mlxsw
specifically prevents to toggle vlan_filtering at runtime for that
reason, because the VLAN objects notification are not "sent again" while
you toggle vlan_filtering. I really wonder if we should not do the same
in DSA as runtime toggling is of questionable use beyond just testing.

Russell, in your tests/examples, did the tagged traffic of $VN continue
to work after you toggled vlan_filtering on? If so, that must be because
on a bridge with VLAN filtering disabled, we still ended up calling down
to the lan1..6 ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid() and so we do have VLAN entries
programmed for $VN.

From what I remember, _all_ traffic was blocked because the VTU
was completely empty when vlan filtering is turned on.

Not sure if the default PVID is 0 or 1, but one of them is ignored
somehow. Setting up a default PVID in the first place is a way to ensure
the programmation of the VTU, like in the following example:

    # ip link add name br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1 vlan_default_pvid 42
    # ip link set master br0 dev lan2 up
    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/mv88e6xxx/sw0/vtu 
    vid 42	fid 1	sid 0	dpv 0 unmodified 2 untagged 10 unmodified

Russell can you test this? If things work out for you when setting up a VLAN
filtering aware bridge with your own default PVID before enslaving DSA ports,
then the problem is narrowed to propagating the default bridge configuration
(default PVID and configuration after enabling VLAN filtering).


Thanks,
