Vladimir Oltean 4d94235495 net: dsa: sja1105: offload bridge port flags to device
The chip can configure unicast flooding, broadcast flooding and learning.
Learning is per port, while flooding is per {ingress, egress} port pair
and we need to configure the same value for all possible ingress ports
towards the requested one.

While multicast flooding is not officially supported, we can hack it by
using a feature of the second generation (P/Q/R/S) devices, which is that
FDB entries are maskable, and multicast addresses always have an odd
first octet. So by putting a match-all for 00:01:00:00:00:00 addr and
00:01:00:00:00:00 mask at the end of the FDB, we make sure that it is
always checked last, and does not take precedence in front of any other
MDB. So it behaves effectively as an unknown multicast entry.

For the first generation switches, this feature is not available, so
unknown multicast will always be treated the same as unknown unicast.
So the only thing we can do is request the user to offload the settings
for these 2 flags in tandem, i.e.

ip link set swp2 type bridge_slave flood off
Error: sja1105: This chip cannot configure multicast flooding independently of unicast.
ip link set swp2 type bridge_slave flood off mcast_flood off
ip link set swp2 type bridge_slave mcast_flood on
Error: sja1105: This chip cannot configure multicast flooding independently of unicast.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
