* bridge: add API to notify bridge driver of learned FBD on offloaded deviceScott Feldman2014-12-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the swdev device learns a new mac/vlan on a port, it sends some async notification to the driver and the driver installs an FDB in the device. To give a holistic system view, the learned mac/vlan should be reflected in the bridge's FBD table, so the user, using normal iproute2 cmds, can view what is currently learned by the device. This API on the bridge driver gives a way for the swdev driver to install an FBD entry in the bridge FBD table. (And remove one). This is equivalent to the device running these cmds: bridge fdb [add|del] <mac> dev <dev> vid <vlan id> master This patch needs some extra eyeballs for review, in paricular around the locking and contexts.

* bridge: Add bridge ifindex to bridge fdb notify msgsRoopa Prabhu2014-06-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (This patch was previously posted as RFC at http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/352677/) This patch adds NDA_MASTER attribute to neighbour attributes enum for bridge/master ifindex. And adds NDA_MASTER to bridge fdb notify msgs. Today bridge fdb notifications dont contain bridge information. Userspace can derive it from the port information in the fdb notification. However this is tricky in some scenarious. Example, bridge port delete notification comes before bridge fdb delete notifications. And we have seen problems in userspace when using libnl where, the bridge fdb delete notification handling code does not understand which bridge this fdb entry is part of because the bridge and port association has already been deleted. And these notifications (port membership and fdb) are generated on separate rtnl groups. Fixing the order of notifications could possibly solve the problem for some cases (I can submit a separate patch for that). This patch chooses to add NDA_MASTER to bridge fdb notify msgs because it not only solves the problem described above, but also helps userspace avoid another lookup into link msgs to derive the master index.

* vxlan: generalize forwarding tablesDavid Stevens2013-03-171-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch generalizes VXLAN forwarding table entries allowing an administrator to: 1) specify multiple destinations for a given MAC 2) specify alternate vni's in the VXLAN header 3) specify alternate destination UDP ports 4) use multicast MAC addresses as fdb lookup keys 5) specify multicast destinations 6) specify the outgoing interface for forwarded packets The combination allows configuration of more complex topologies using VXLAN encapsulation. Changes since v1: rebase to 3.9.0-rc2 Signed-Off-By: David L Stevens <dlstevens@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* bridge: Add vlan support to static neighborsVlad Yasevich2013-02-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | When a user adds bridge neighbors, allow him to specify VLAN id. If the VLAN id is not specified, the neighbor will be added for VLANs currently in the ports filter list. If no VLANs are configured on the port, we use vlan 0 and only add 1 entry.
