Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 2/6] net: dsa: {e}dsa: set offload_fwd_mark on received packets
Date: Tue, 7 Nov 2017 00:02:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1510009351-21875-3-git-send-email-andrew@lunn.ch> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1510009351-21875-1-git-send-email-andrew@lunn.ch>
The software bridge needs to know if a packet has already been bridged
by hardware offload to ports in the same hardware offload, in order
that it does not re-flood them, causing duplicates. This is
particularly true for broadcast and multicast traffic which the host
has requested.
By setting offload_fwd_mark in the skb the bridge will only flood to
ports in other offloads and other netifs. Set this flag in the DSA and
EDSA tag driver.
Signed-off-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch>

v2

For the moment, do this in the tag drivers, not the generic code.
Once we get more test results from other switches, maybe move it back
again.
