Subject: [net-next PATCH v5 0/8] net: dsa: realtek: rtl8365mb: bridge offloading and VLAN support
Date: Tue, 19 May 2026 01:57:55 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260519-realtek_forward-v5-0-cb9f702c1782@gmail.com> (raw)

This series introduces bridge offloading, FDB management, and VLAN support
for the Realtek rtl8365mb DSA switch driver. The primary goal is to
enable hardware frame forwarding between bridge ports, reducing CPU
overhead and providing advanced features like VLAN and FDB isolation.

Some of these patches are based on original work by Alvin Šipraga,
subsequently adapted and updated for the current net-next state.

---
I attempted to reach Alvin for review of the final version but was
unable to establish contact. Any regressions in this version are my
responsibility.

Changes in v5:
* General:
 - Removed Alvin from Co-Developed-By and added myself.
* Patch 1 (err_ptr):
 - fixed error message on failed IRQ mapping
* Patch 2 (DSA helpers):
 - fixed missing irq teardown when DSA link port was detected.
 - added missing \n in error message when DSA link port is detected.
* Patch 4 (Table lookup):
 - fixed RTL8365MB_TABLE_ADDR_MASK mask
 - added a check for busy table access before preparing and issuing
   a new command (protecting from a failed previous access)
 - increased table timeout from 100us to 10000us
 - changed -ENOENT to -ENOSPC when writing to L2 failed
 - moved RTL8365MB_TABLE_ENTRY_MAX_SIZE to table.h (as kdoc mentions it)
* Patch 5 (VLAN):
 - removed duplicated filtering registers macros
 - removed wrong comment on undo_transparent
 - forced the removal of a possible PVID state if an added port
   is not PVID
 - added vlanmc->priority_en to VlanMC reading, although always zero
 - use VlanMC member just for tracking ports using PVID and do not
   try to keep it in sync with Vlan4k. rtl8365mb_vlan_mc_pvid_members()
   is not needed anymore.
 - changed rtl8365mb_vlan_mc_port_set signature to receive vid and pvid
   instead of the vlan struct to avoid null pointer dereference
* Patch 7 (L2):
 - removed addr from rtl8365mb_l2_del_mc when -ENOENT is returned by the table_access as it is undefined (noticed by sashiko)
 - added RTL8365MB_L2_TABLE_SIZE and use it instead of RTL8365MB_LEARN_LIMIT_MAX when needed
 - extended RTL8365MB_LEARN_LIMIT_MAX comment to cite that the exception RTL8370B might not even be a RTL8367C member
 - moved l2_lock init to rtl83xx.c as it is a field in a common struct.
 - fixed fdb_dump kdoc, now returning OK when the table is empty
 - expaned L2 commit to cite unicast/multicast table key
   differences
- Link to v4: https://patch.msgid.link/20260516-realtek_forward-v4-0-8b6d6a1eefdc@gmail.com

Changes in v4:
* General:
 - fixed comments/kdoc wording identified by Sashiko.
* Patch 1 (err_prt):
 - added missing %pe/ERR_PTR conversion identified by Sashiko.
* Patch 2 (dsa macros):
 - reorganize port setup initialization, collecting ports in upports_mask
   and downports_mask.
 - include a fail fast during setup if DSA links ports are detected.
* Patch 4 (table):
 - added missing return value check for regmap_bulk_read in table access
   (spotted by Sashiko).
* Patch 5 (vlan):
 - added undo steps to rtl8365mb_port_vlan_filtering (noticed by
   Sashiko).
 - removed residual double max packet configuation (noticed by Sashiko).
 - added meteridx and policing_en to rtl8365mb_vlan_mc_read, although
   always written as zero in rtl8365mb_vlan_mc_write() (noticed by
   Sashiko).
 - explicitly comment that VlanMC[0] uses EVID==0 (Sashiko was worried).
 - always undo previous PVID setting before applying a new one. It might
   exhaust VlanMC entries if the user keeps changing PVID without removing
   the port from the previous PVID VLAN (bug detected by Sashiko).
 - Fixed a bug where a missing VLAN MC entry during PVID assignment would
   return success instead of an error (reportd by Sashiko).
* Patch 6 (bridge join/leave):
 - Added error unwinding path (undo isolation and EFID) in
   rtl83xx_port_bridge_join (noticed by Sashiko).
* Patch 7 (FDB support):
 - added RTL8365MB_L2_ENTRY_SIZE macro.
 - fixed RTL8365MB_L2_FLUSH_CTRL2_TYPE_BOTH definition (noticed by
   Sashiko).
 - removed the union in rtl8365mb_l2_uc_key. Each field is independent
   now (bug detected by by Sashiko).
 - fixed mc->member calculation. Now it uses bitfield to rebuild the
   value (bug detected by Sashiko).
 - return mdb_del without errors if entry is missing.
 - improve debug messages for l2 operations.
 - added comment about ds->assisted_learning_on_cpu_port and
   fdb_isolation in the commit message (asked by Sashiko)
 - renamed some _MASK macros to _MSK to reduce the name length.
 ** rtl83xx_port_fdb_dump fixes:
  - initialize entry as null (noticed by Sashiko)
  - check return of cb() (bugfix reported by Sashiko)
  - fix address overflow (noticed by Sashiko)
- Link to v3: https://patch.msgid.link/20260506-realtek_forward-v3-0-1d87c5f85a3b@gmail.com

Changes in v3:
- Fixed kernel-doc warnings
- Removed unnecessary defensive checks
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20260503-realtek_forward-v2-0-d064e220b391@gmail.com

Changes in v2:
- added patch to use ERR_PTR()
- dropped bitfield patch. Use FIELD_PREP instead. Suggested by Yury
  Norov
- tag_rtl8_4 patches were submitted on its own series (already accepted)
- dropped rtl8365mb_vlan_mc_port_{add,del}(). rtl8365mb_vlan_mc_port_set
  is now called directly from PVID methods.
- reordered methods in rtl8365mb_vlan.c
- use dsa_switch_for_each_user_port() instead of simple for in bridge
  port join/leave
- PVID check now uses dsa_switch_for_each_available_port instead of
  dsa_switch_for_each_port
- set EFID of user ports to 0 at setup(), although it is the expected
  state after reset
- STP patch was dropped and replaced by a more extensive one that
  disables all ports (including unused ones) before setting CPU and user
  ports. It also extended the CPU port isolation to include all user
  ports.
- refactored bridge, FDB, and MDB port operations into the common
  rtl83xx module, introducing new realtek_ops callbacks to abstract the
  hardware access
- Collected Reviewed-by and Suggested-by tags
