Subject: [PATCH v12 net-next] bridge: No DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_UNTAG_HW for dsa foreign
Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2026 12:03:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260317110347.363875-1-ericwouds@gmail.com> (raw)
In network setup as below:
fastpath bypass
.----------------------------------------.
/ \
| IP - forwarding |
| / \ v
| / wan ...
| /
| |
| |
| brlan.1
| |
| +-------------------------------+
| | vlan 1 |
| | |
| | brlan (vlan-filtering) |
| | +---------------+
| | | DSA-SWITCH |
| | vlan 1 | |
| | to | |
| | untagged 1 vlan 1 |
| +---------------+---------------+
. / \
----->wlan1 lan0
. .
. ^
^ vlan 1 tagged packets
untagged packets
br_vlan_fill_forward_path_mode() sets DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_UNTAG_HW when
filling in from brlan.1 towards wlan1. But it should be set to
DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_UNTAG in this case. Using BR_VLFLAG_ADDED_BY_SWITCHDEV
is not correct. The dsa switchdev adds it as a foreign port.
The same problem for all foreignly added dsa vlans on the bridge.
First add the vlan, trying only native devices.
If this fails, we know this may be a vlan from a foreign device.
Use BR_VLFLAG_TAGGING_BY_SWITCHDEV to make sure DEV_PATH_BR_VLAN_UNTAG_HW
is set only when there if no foreign device involved.

This patch has started in v2 of my original patch-set. It remains
unchanged from v4, always moving along in a patch-set. The Acked-by
from Nikolay Aleksandrov was added in v5.
Changes in v12:
- Moved to net-next.git
- Split from [PATCH v11 nf-next] netfilter: fastpath fixes
Changes in v10:
- Moved to nf-next.git
- Split from patch-set: bridge-fastpath and related improvements v9
Changes in v9:
- Moved from net-next.git to nf.git
Changes in v4:
- Added !CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV version of
br_switchdev_port_vlan_no_foreign_add().
