[PATCH net-next v2 0/5] net: xilinx: axienet: Multicast fixes and improvements

[Sean Anderson]

This series has a few small patches improving the handling of multicast
addresses. In particular, it makes the driver a whole lot less spammy,
and adjusts things so we aren't in promiscuous mode when we have more
than four multicast addresses (a common occurance on modern systems).

As the hardware has a 4-entry CAM, the ideal method would be to "pack"
multiple addresses into one CAM entry. Something like:

entry.address = address[0] | address[1];
entry.mask = ~(address[0] ^ address[1]);

Which would make the entry match both addresses (along with some others
that would need to be filtered in software).

Mapping addresses to entries in an efficient way is a bit tricky. If
anyone knows of an in-tree example of something like this, I'd be glad
to hear about it.

Changes in v2:
- Split off IFF_PROMISC change from printing changes

[PATCH net-next v2 1/5] net: xilinx: axienet: Always disable promiscuous mode

[Sean Anderson]

If promiscuous mode is disabled when there are fewer than four multicast
addresses, then it will to be reflected in the hardware. Fix this by
always clearing the promiscuous mode flag even when we program multicast
addresses.

[PATCH net-next v2 2/5] net: xilinx: axienet: Fix dangling multicast addresses

[Sean Anderson]

If a multicast address is removed but there are still some multicast
addresses, that address would remain programmed into the frame filter.
Fix this by explicitly setting the enable bit for each filter.

[PATCH net-next v2 5/5] net: xilinx: axienet: Support IFF_ALLMULTI

[Sean Anderson]

Add support for IFF_ALLMULTI by configuring a single filter to match the
multicast address bit. This allows us to keep promiscuous mode disabled,
even when we have more than four multicast addresses. An even better
solution would be to "pack" addresses into the available CAM registers,
but that can wait for a future series.

Well, this doesn't really have anything to do with addresses. It selects
the "Filter Index" (as named by the datasheet) so I'd rename it `filter`
if anything.

This hardware is actually really unusual since the CAM acts on the
entire first 64 bytes of the packet. So you could theoretically filter
for the source address too, but I don't know why you'd want to since all
you can do is drop the packet. Seems like a big waste of resources to
me.

OK, so to be clear: how should I send these patches?

You gotta rebase and repost the first two -- I would have taken them
directly to net from this posting but there is a conflict on patch 2
(as mentioned there).

Could you repost the first two rebased ASAP? (You can leave the rename
of i for the net-next series). I'm literally prepping  the PR
net->Linus right now, if you post soon they will be cross-merged into
net-next by EOD, making it easier to merge the rest.
