Texas Instruments CPSW switchdev based ethernet driver

:Version: 2.0
Port renaming
=============
On older udev versions renaming of ethX to swXpY will not be automatically
supported
In order to rename via udev::
ip -d link show dev sw0p1 | grep switchid
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", ATTR{phys_switch_id}==<switchid>, \
ATTR{phys_port_name}!="", NAME="sw0$attr{phys_port_name}"
Dual mac mode
=============
- The new (cpsw_new.c) driver is operating in dual-emac mode by default, thus
working as 2 individual network interfaces. Main differences from legacy CPSW
driver are:
- optimized promiscuous mode: The P0_UNI_FLOOD (both ports) is enabled in
addition to ALLMULTI (current port) instead of ALE_BYPASS.
So, Ports in promiscuous mode will keep possibility of mcast and vlan
filtering, which is provides significant benefits when ports are joined
to the same bridge, but without enabling "switch" mode, or to different
bridges.
- learning disabled on ports as it make not too much sense for
segregated ports - no forwarding in HW.
- enabled basic support for devlink.

Bridging in dual mac mode
=========================
The dual_mac mode requires two vids to be reserved for internal purposes,
which, by default, equal CPSW Port numbers. As result, bridge has to be
configured in vlan unaware mode or default_pvid has to be adjusted::
ip link add name br0 type bridge
ip link set dev br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 0
echo 0 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/default_pvid
ip link set dev sw0p1 master br0
ip link set dev sw0p2 master br0
or::
ip link add name br0 type bridge
ip link set dev br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 0
echo 100 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/default_pvid
ip link set dev br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1
ip link set dev sw0p1 master br0
ip link set dev sw0p2 master br0
Enabling "switch"
=================
The Switch mode can be enabled by configuring devlink driver parameter
"switch_mode" to 1/true::
devlink dev param set platform/48484000.switch \
name switch_mode value 1 cmode runtime
This can be done regardless of the state of Port's netdev devices - UP/DOWN, but
Port's netdev devices have to be in UP before joining to the bridge to avoid
overwriting of bridge configuration as CPSW switch driver copletly reloads its
configuration when first Port changes its state to UP.
When the both interfaces joined the bridge - CPSW switch driver will enable
marking packets with offload_fwd_mark flag unless "ale_bypass=0"
All configuration is implemented via switchdev API.
Bridge setup
============
::
devlink dev param set platform/48484000.switch \
name switch_mode value 1 cmode runtime
ip link add name br0 type bridge
ip link set dev br0 type bridge ageing_time 1000
ip link set dev sw0p1 up
ip link set dev sw0p2 up
ip link set dev sw0p1 master br0
ip link set dev sw0p2 master br0
[*] bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 1 pvid untagged self
[*] if vlan_filtering=1. where default_pvid=1
Note. Steps [*] are mandatory.
On/off STP
==========
::
ip link set dev BRDEV type bridge stp_state 1/0
VLAN configuration
==================
::
bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 1 pvid untagged self <---- add cpu port to VLAN 1
Note. This step is mandatory for bridge/default_pvid.
Add extra VLANs
===============
1. untagged::
bridge vlan add dev sw0p1 vid 100 pvid untagged master
bridge vlan add dev sw0p2 vid 100 pvid untagged master
bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 100 pvid untagged self <---- Add cpu port to VLAN100
2. tagged::
bridge vlan add dev sw0p1 vid 100 master
bridge vlan add dev sw0p2 vid 100 master
bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 100 pvid tagged self <---- Add cpu port to VLAN100
FDBs
----
FDBs are automatically added on the appropriate switch port upon detection
Manually adding FDBs::
bridge fdb add aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff dev sw0p1 master vlan 100
bridge fdb add aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:fe dev sw0p2 master <---- Add on all VLANs
MDBs
----
MDBs are automatically added on the appropriate switch port upon detection
Manually adding MDBs::
bridge mdb add dev br0 port sw0p1 grp 239.1.1.1 permanent vid 100
bridge mdb add dev br0 port sw0p1 grp 239.1.1.1 permanent <---- Add on all VLANs
Multicast flooding
==================
CPU port mcast_flooding is always on
Turning flooding on/off on switch ports:
bridge link set dev sw0p1 mcast_flood on/off
Access and Trunk port
=====================
::
bridge vlan add dev sw0p1 vid 100 pvid untagged master
bridge vlan add dev sw0p2 vid 100 master
bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 100 self
ip link add link br0 name br0.100 type vlan id 100
Note. Setting PVID on Bridge device itself working only for
default VLAN (default_pvid).
NFS
===
The only way for NFS to work is by chrooting to a minimal environment when
switch configuration that will affect connectivity is needed.
Assuming you are booting NFS with eth1 interface(the script is hacky and
it's just there to prove NFS is doable).
setup.sh::
#!/bin/sh
mkdir proc
mount -t proc none /proc
ifconfig br0 > /dev/null
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
echo "Setting up bridge"
ip link add name br0 type bridge
ip link set dev br0 type bridge ageing_time 1000
ip link set dev br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1
ip link set eth1 down
ip link set eth1 name sw0p1
ip link set dev sw0p1 up
ip link set dev sw0p2 up
ip link set dev sw0p2 master br0
ip link set dev sw0p1 master br0
bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 1 pvid untagged self
ifconfig sw0p1 0.0.0.0
udhchc -i br0
fi
umount /proc
run_nfs.sh:::
#!/bin/sh
mkdir /tmp/root/bin -p
mkdir /tmp/root/lib -p
cp -r /lib/ /tmp/root/
cp -r /bin/ /tmp/root/
