[RFC PATCH net-next 1/5] net: core: dev_addr_lists: add VID to device address space

Ivan Khoronzhuk
2018-12-03T18:40:19Z

This patch adds VID tag at the end of each address. For Ethernet
addresses with 6 bytes long, when actual reserved address size is
32 bytes, that's possible to add tag w/o increasing maximum address
length. Thus each address for the case has 32 - 6 = 26 bytes to hold
additional info, say VID for virtual device address.

Therefore, when addresses are synched to the address list of parent
device the address list of latter can contain separate addresses for
virtual devices. It allows contain separate address tables for virtual
devices if they present and vlan be placed on any place of device
chain as the address is propagated to to the end real device thru
*_sync APIs.

If parent device doesn't want to have virtual addresses in its address
space the vid_len has to be 0, thus its address space is "shrunk" to
the state as before this patch.

The end real device, if it's allowed, can retrieve VID tag from an
address and set it for given vlan only. By default vid 0 is used
for real devices to distinguish it from virtual addresses (0xffff
should be used, but for RFC is Ok). Similar approach can be used for
passing additional information for virtual devices as allmulti flag
or/and promisc flag, but this is separate story and could be added
as a continuation.

See next patches to see how it works.
