Contrary to common expectations for an "int" return, these functions
return only a positive value -- if used correctly they cannot even
return 0 because the message header will necessarily be in the skb.
This makes the very common pattern of
if (genlmsg_end(...) < 0) { ... }
be a whole bunch of dead code. Many places also simply do
return nlmsg_end(...);
and the caller is expected to deal with it.
This also commonly (at least for me) causes errors, because it is very
common to write
if (my_function(...))
/* error condition */
and if my_function() does "return nlmsg_end()" this is of course wrong.
Additionally, there's not a single place in the kernel that actually
needs the message length returned, and if anyone needs it later then
it'll be very easy to just use skb->len there.
Remove this, and make the functions void. This removes a bunch of dead
code as described above. The patch adds lines because I did
- return nlmsg_end(...);
+ nlmsg_end(...);
+ return 0;
I could have preserved all the function's return values by returning
skb->len, but instead I've audited all the places calling the affected
functions and found that none cared. A few places actually compared
the return value with <= 0 in dump functionality, but that could just
be changed to < 0 with no change in behaviour, so I opted for the more
efficient version.
One instance of the error I've made numerous times now is also present
in net/phonet/pn_netlink.c in the route_dumpit() function - it didn't
check for <0 or <=0 and thus broke out of the loop every single time.
I've preserved this since it will (I think) have caused the messages to
userspace to be formatted differently with just a single message for
every SKB returned to userspace. It's possible that this isn't needed
for the tools that actually use this, but I don't even know what they
are so couldn't test that changing this behaviour would be acceptable.

This patch benefits from newly introduced switchdev notifier and uses it
to propagate fdb learn events from rocker driver to bridge. That avoids
direct function calls and possible use by other listeners (ovs).

The rocker driver tries to assign a pointer to a 64-bit integer
and then back to a pointer. This is safe on all architectures,
but causes a compiler warning when pointers are shorter than
64-bit:
rocker/rocker.c: In function 'rocker_desc_cookie_ptr_get':
rocker/rocker.c:809:9: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]
return (void *) desc_info->desc->cookie;
^
This adds another cast to uintptr_t to tell the compiler
that it's safe.

In a configuration with CONFIG_BRIDGE set to 'm' and CONFIG_ROCKER
set to 'y', undefined references occur at link time:

This patch fixes these by declaring CONFIG_ROCKER as being dependent

Add L2 bridge offloading support to rocker driver. Here, the Linux bridge
driver is used to collect swdev ports into a tagged (or untagged) VLAN
bridge. The switchdev will offload from the bridge driver the following L2
bridging functions:
- Learning of neighbor MAC addresses on VLAN X Learned mac/vlan is
installed in bridge FDB. (And removed when device unlearns mac/vlan).
Learning must be turned off on each bridge port to disable the feature in
the bridge driver.
- Flooding of multicast/broadcast and unknown unicast pkts to (STP)
active ports in bridge. The bridge driver is unaware of the flooding happening
at the device level. Flooding must be turned off on each bridge port to
disable the feature on the bridge driver.
- STP port state is pushed down to driver/device. The bridge still processes
STP BDPUs and maintains port STP state (for all VLANs in bridge), but
the driver/device must be notified of port STP state change to program
the device.
Multiple (VLAN) bridges are supported. The device (implemented per
the OF-DPA spec) must use a portion of the VLAN namespace for
internal VLANs. Right now, the upper 255 VLANs (0xf00 to 0xffe) are
used as internal VLAN IDs for untagged traffic and are not available
as port VLANs.
The driver uses the following interfaces:
1. To track VLAN add/del on ports in bridge:
.ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid
.ndo_vlan_rx_kill_vid
2. To track port add/del membership in bridge:
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER netdevice notifier
3. To catch static FDB entries installed on bridge/vlan by user using netlink:
.ndo_fdb_add
.ndo_fdb_del
4. To be notified on port STP state change:
.ndo_switch_port_stp_update
5. To notify bridge driver on learned/forgotten mac/vlans on bridge port:
br_fdb_external_learn_add
br_fdb_external_learn_del

The rocker driver maintains 4 hash tables: flows, groups, FDB, and VLANs.
Flow and group tables track the entries installed to OF-DPA tables,
per the OF-DPA spec. See OF-DPA spec for full description of fields
in each flow and group table. New table entries are pushed to the
device with ADD cmd. Updated entries are pushed to the device with
MOD cmd. For flow table entries, a crc32 key is made from fields of
the particular field. For group table entries, the group_id is used
as the key.
The FDB table tracks fdb entries learned by the device or manually
pushed to the bridge by the user. A crc32 key is made from the
port/mac/vlan tuple for the fdb entry.
The VLAN table tracks the ifindex-to-internal-vlan mapping for
untagged pkts. On ingress, an untagged pkt is inserted with an
internal VLAN ID based on the input port's current internal VLAN ID.
The input port's internal VLAN will either be referenced by the port's
ifindex, if not bridged, or the containing bridge's ifindex, if
bridged. Since the ifindex space isn't within a fixed range, uses a
hash table (with ifindex as key) to track internal VLAN ID for a given
ifindex. The internal VLAN ID range is fixed and currently uses the
upper 255 VLAN IDs, starting at 0xf00.
