ebb9a03a59 switchdev: s/netdev_switch_/switchdev_/ and s/NETDEV_SWITCH_/SWITCHDEV_/
Turned out that "switchdev" sticks. So just unify all related terms to use
this prefix.

a6e95cc718 rocker: handle non-bridge master change
Master change notifications may occur other than when joining or
leaving a bridge, for example when being added to or removed from
a bond or Open vSwitch.

Previously in those cases rocker_port_bridge_leave() was called
which results in a null-pointer dereference as rocker_port->bridge_dev
is NULL because there is no bridge device.

This patch makes provision for doing nothing in such cases.

db19170bc0 rocker: add support for phys_port_name
Implement the phys_port_name operation. Port names are pulled from the
rocker hardware model in qemu and default to the qemu name + port id.
e.g.,

sw1p1: flags=4098<BROADCAST,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        ether 52:54:00:12:35:01  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)
        RX packets 0  bytes 0 (0.0 B)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 0  bytes 0 (0.0 B)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

where 'sw1' comes from the qemu command line -device rocker,name=sw1, and
'p1' is port 1.

Patch is adapted from Scott's phys_port_id patch.

c1beeef7a3 rocker: implement IPv4 fib offloading
The driver implements ndo_switch_fib_ipv4_add/del ops to add/del/mod IPv4
routes to/from switchdev device.  Once a route is added to the device, and the
route's nexthops are resolved to neighbor MAC address, the device will forward
matching pkts rather than the kernel.  This offloads the L3 forwarding path
from the kernel to the device.  Note that control and management planes are
still mananged by Linux; only the data plane is offloaded.  Standard routing
control protocols such as OSPF and BGP run on Linux and manage the kernel's FIB
via standard rtm netlink msgs...nothing changes here.

A new hash table is added to rocker to track neighbors.  The driver listens for
neighbor updates events using netevent notifier NETEVENT_NEIGH_UPDATE.  Any ARP
table updates for ports on this device are recorded in this table.  Routes
installed to the device with nexthops that reference neighbors in this table
are "qualified".  In the case of a route with nexthops not resolved in the
table, the kernel is asked to resolve the nexthop.

The driver uses fib_info->fib_priority for the priority field in rocker's
unicast routing table.

The device can only forward to pkts matching route dst to resolved nexthops.
Currently, the device only supports single-path routes (i.e. routes with one
nexthop).  Equal Cost Multipath (ECMP) route support will be added in followup
patches.

This patch is driver support for unicast IPv4 routing only.  Followup patches
will add driver and infrastructure for IPv6 routing and multicast routing.

e47172ab7e rocker: put port in FORWADING state after leaving bridge
Cleanup the port forwarding state transitions for the cases when the port
joins or leaves a bridge, or is brought admin UP or DOWN.  When port is
bridged, we can rely on bridge driver putting port in correct state using
STP callback into port driver, regardless if bridge is enabled for STP or not.
When port is not bridged, we can reuse some of the STP code to enabled or
disable forwarding depending on UP or DOWN.

Tested by trying all the transitions from bridge/not bridge, and UP/DOWN, and
verifying port is in the correct forwarding state after each transition.

053c095a82 netlink: make nlmsg_end() and genlmsg_end() void
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.

6c70794500 rocker: implement L2 bridge offloading
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

9f6bbf7cfc rocker: implement rocker ofdpa flow table manipulation
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.

4b8ac9660a rocker: introduce rocker switch driver
This patch introduces the first driver to benefit from the switchdev
infrastructure and to implement newly introduced switch ndos. This is a
driver for emulated switch chip implemented in qemu:
https://github.com/sfeldma/qemu-rocker/

This patch is a result of joint work with Scott Feldman.
