The dsa_8021q_bridge_tx_fwd_offload_vid is no longer used just for
bridge TX forwarding offload, it is the private VLAN reserved for
VLAN-unaware bridging in a way that is compatible with FDB isolation.
So just rename it dsa_tag_8021q_bridge_vid.

In the old Shared VLAN Learning mode of operation that tag_8021q
previously used for forwarding, we needed to have distinct concepts for
an RX and a TX VLAN.
An RX VLAN could be installed on all ports that were members of a given
bridge, so that autonomous forwarding could still work, while a TX VLAN
was dedicated for precise packet steering, so it just contained the CPU
port and one egress port.
Now that tag_8021q uses Independent VLAN Learning and imprecise RX/TX
all over, those lines have been blurred and we no longer have the need
to do precise TX towards a port that is in a bridge. As for standalone
ports, it is fine to use the same VLAN ID for both RX and TX.
This patch changes the tag_8021q format by shifting the VLAN range it
reserves, and halving it. Previously, our DIR bits were encoding the
VLAN direction (RX/TX) and were set to either 1 or 2. This meant that
tag_8021q reserved 2K VLANs, or 50% of the available range.
Change the DIR bits to a hardcoded value of 3 now, which makes tag_8021q
reserve only 1K VLANs, and a different range now (the last 1K). This is
done so that we leave the old format in place in case we need to return
to it.
In terms of code, the vid_is_dsa_8021q_rxvlan and vid_is_dsa_8021q_txvlan
functions go away. Any vid_is_dsa_8021q is both a TX and an RX VLAN, and
they are no longer distinct. For example, felix which did different
things for different VLAN types, now needs to handle the RX and the TX
logic for the same VLAN.

The sja1105 switch can't populate the PORT field of the tag_8021q header
when sending a frame to the CPU with a non-zero VBID.
Similar to dsa_find_designated_bridge_port_by_vid() which performs
imprecise RX for VLAN-aware bridges, let's introduce a helper in
tag_8021q for performing imprecise RX based on the VLAN that it has
allocated for a VLAN-unaware bridge.

For VLAN-unaware bridging, tag_8021q uses something perhaps a bit too
tied with the sja1105 switch: each port uses the same pvid which is also
used for standalone operation (a unique one from which the source port
and device ID can be retrieved when packets from that port are forwarded
to the CPU). Since each port has a unique pvid when performing
autonomous forwarding, the switch must be configured for Shared VLAN
Learning (SVL) such that the VLAN ID itself is ignored when performing
FDB lookups. Without SVL, packets would always be flooded, since FDB
lookup in the source port's VLAN would never find any entry.
First of all, to make tag_8021q more palatable to switches which might
not support Shared VLAN Learning, let's just use a common VLAN for all
ports that are under the same bridge.
Secondly, using Shared VLAN Learning means that FDB isolation can never
be enforced. But if all ports under the same VLAN-unaware bridge share
the same VLAN ID, it can.
The disadvantage is that the CPU port can no longer perform precise
source port identification for these packets. But at least we have a
mechanism which has proven to be adequate for that situation: imprecise
RX (dsa_find_designated_bridge_port_by_vid), which is what we use for
termination on VLAN-aware bridges.
The VLAN ID that VLAN-unaware bridges will use with tag_8021q is the
same one as we were previously using for imprecise TX (bridge TX
forwarding offload). It is already allocated, it is just a matter of
using it.
Note that because now all ports under the same bridge share the same
VLAN, the complexity of performing a tag_8021q bridge join decreases
dramatically. We no longer have to install the RX VLAN of a newly
joining port into the port membership of the existing bridge ports.
The newly joining port just becomes a member of the VLAN corresponding
to that bridge, and the other ports are already members of it from when
they joined the bridge themselves. So forwarding works properly.
This means that we can unhook dsa_tag_8021q_bridge_{join,leave} from the
cross-chip notifier level dsa_switch_bridge_{join,leave}. We can put
these calls directly into the sja1105 driver.
With this new mode of operation, a port controlled by tag_8021q can have
two pvids whereas before it could only have one. The pvid for standalone
operation is different from the pvid used for VLAN-unaware bridging.
This is done, again, so that FDB isolation can be enforced.
Let tag_8021q manage this by deleting the standalone pvid when a port
joins a bridge, and restoring it when it leaves it.

sock.h is pretty heavily used (5k objects rebuilt on x86 after
it's touched). We can drop the include of filter.h from it and
add a forward declaration of struct sk_filter instead.
This decreases the number of rebuilt objects when bpf.h
is touched from ~5k to ~1k.
There's a lot of missing includes this was masking. Primarily
in networking tho, this time.

The driver was incorrectly converted assuming that "sja1105" is the only
tagger supported by this driver. This results in SJA1110 switches
failing to probe:
sja1105 spi1.0: Unable to connect to tag protocol "sja1110": -EPROTONOSUPPORT
sja1105: probe of spi1.2 failed with error -93
Add DSA_TAG_PROTO_SJA1110 to the list of supported taggers by the
sja1105 driver. The sja1105_tagger_data structure format is common for
the two tagging protocols.

The sja1105 driver messes with the tagging protocol's state when PTP RX
timestamping is enabled/disabled. This is fundamentally necessary
because the tagger needs to know what to do when it receives a PTP
packet. If RX timestamping is enabled, then a metadata follow-up frame
is expected, and this holds the (partial) timestamp. So the tagger plays
hide-and-seek with the network stack until it also gets the metadata
frame, and then presents a single packet, the timestamped PTP packet.
But when RX timestamping isn't enabled, there is no metadata frame
expected, so the hide-and-seek game must be turned off and the packet
must be delivered right away to the network stack.
Considering this, we create a pseudo isolation by devising two tagger
methods callable by the switch: one to get the RX timestamping state,
and one to set it. Since we can't export symbols between the tagger and
the switch driver, these methods are exposed through function pointers.
After this change, the public portion of the sja1105_tagger_data
contains only function pointers.

protocol driver"
This reverts commit 6d709cadfde68dbd12bef12fcced6222226dcb06.
The above change was done to avoid calling symbols exported by the
switch driver from the tagging protocol driver.
With the tagger-owned storage model, we have a new option on our hands,
and that is for the switch driver to provide a data consumer handler in
the form of a function pointer inside the ->connect_tag_protocol()
method. Having a function pointer avoids the problems of the exported
symbols approach.
By creating a handler for metadata frames holding TX timestamps on
SJA1110, we are able to eliminate an skb queue from the tagger data, and
replace it with a simple, and stateless, function pointer. This skb
queue is now handled exclusively by sja1105_ptp.c, which makes the code
easier to follow, as it used to be before the reverted patch.

Currently, struct sja1105_tagger_data is a part of struct
sja1105_private, and is used by the sja1105 driver to populate dp->priv.
With the movement towards tagger-owned storage, the sja1105 driver
should not be the owner of this memory.
This change implements the connection between the sja1105 switch driver
and its tagging protocol, which means that sja1105_tagger_data no longer
stays in dp->priv but in ds->tagger_data, and that the sja1105 driver
now only populates the sja1105_port_deferred_xmit callback pointer.
The kthread worker is now the responsibility of the tagger.
The sja1105 driver also alters the tagger's state some more, especially
with regard to the PTP RX timestamping state. This will be fixed up a
bit in further changes.

The TX timestamp ID is incremented by the SJA1110 PTP timestamping
callback (->port_tx_timestamp) for every packet, when cloning it.
It isn't used by the tagger at all, even though it sits inside the
struct sja1105_tagger_data.
Also, serialization to this structure is currently done through
tagger_data->meta_lock, which is a cheap hack because the meta_lock
isn't used for anything else on SJA1110 (sja1105_rcv_meta_state_machine
isn't called).
This change moves ts_id from sja1105_tagger_data to sja1105_private and
introduces a dedicated spinlock for it, also in sja1105_private.

When the ocelot-8021q driver was converted to deferred xmit as part of
commit 8d5f7954b7c8 ("net: dsa: felix: break at first CPU port during
init and teardown"), the deferred implementation was deliberately made
subtly different from what sja1105 has.
The implementation differences lied on the following observations:
- There might be a race between these two lines in tag_sja1105.c:
skb_queue_tail(&sp->xmit_queue, skb_get(skb));
kthread_queue_work(sp->xmit_worker, &sp->xmit_work);
and the skb dequeue logic in sja1105_port_deferred_xmit(). For
example, the xmit_work might be already queued, however the work item
has just finished walking through the skb queue. Because we don't
check the return code from kthread_queue_work, we don't do anything if
the work item is already queued.
However, nobody will take that skb and send it, at least until the
next timestampable skb is sent. This creates additional (and
avoidable) TX timestamping latency.
To close that race, what the ocelot-8021q driver does is it doesn't
keep a single work item per port, and a skb timestamping queue, but
rather dynamically allocates a work item per packet.
- It is also unnecessary to have more than one kthread that does the
work. So delete the per-port kthread allocations and replace them with
a single kthread which is global to the switch.
This change brings the two implementations in line by applying those
observations to the sja1105 driver as well.

The felix driver makes very light use of dp->priv, and the tagger is
effectively stateless. dp->priv is practically only needed to set up a
callback to perform deferred xmit of PTP and STP packets using the
ocelot-8021q tagging protocol (the main ocelot tagging protocol makes no
use of dp->priv, although this driver sets up dp->priv irrespective of
actual tagging protocol in use).
struct felix_port (what used to be pointed to by dp->priv) is removed
and replaced with a two-sided structure. The public side of this
structure, visible to the switch driver, is ocelot_8021q_tagger_data.
The private side is ocelot_8021q_tagger_private, and the latter
structure physically encapsulates the former. The public half of the
tagger data structure can be accessed through a helper of the same name
(ocelot_8021q_tagger_data) which also sanity-checks the protocol
currently in use by the switch. The public/private split was requested
by Andrew Lunn.

The main desire behind this is to provide coherent bridge information to
the fast path without locking.
For example, right now we set dp->bridge_dev and dp->bridge_num from
separate code paths, it is theoretically possible for a packet
transmission to read these two port properties consecutively and find a
bridge number which does not correspond with the bridge device.
Another desire is to start passing more complex bridge information to
dsa_switch_ops functions. For example, with FDB isolation, it is
expected that drivers will need to be passed the bridge which requested
an FDB/MDB entry to be offloaded, and along with that bridge_dev, the
associated bridge_num should be passed too, in case the driver might
want to implement an isolation scheme based on that number.
We already pass the {bridge_dev, bridge_num} pair to the TX forwarding
offload switch API, however we'd like to remove that and squash it into
the basic bridge join/leave API. So that means we need to pass this
pair to the bridge join/leave API.
During dsa_port_bridge_leave, first we unset dp->bridge_dev, then we
call the driver's .port_bridge_leave with what used to be our
dp->bridge_dev, but provided as an argument.
When bridge_dev and bridge_num get folded into a single structure, we
need to preserve this behavior in dsa_port_bridge_leave: we need a copy
of what used to be in dp->bridge.
Switch drivers check bridge membership by comparing dp->bridge_dev with
the provided bridge_dev, but now, if we provide the struct dsa_bridge as
a pointer, they cannot keep comparing dp->bridge to the provided
pointer, since this only points to an on-stack copy. To make this
obvious and prevent driver writers from forgetting and doing stupid
things, in this new API, the struct dsa_bridge is provided as a full
structure (not very large, contains an int and a pointer) instead of a
pointer. An explicit comparison function needs to be used to determine
bridge membership: dsa_port_offloads_bridge().

I have seen too many bugs already due to the fact that we must encode an
invalid dp->bridge_num as a negative value, because the natural tendency
is to check that invalid value using (!dp->bridge_num). Latest example
can be seen in commit 1bec0f05062c ("net: dsa: fix bridge_num not
getting cleared after ports leaving the bridge").
Convert the existing users to assume that dp->bridge_num == 0 is the
encoding for invalid, and valid bridge numbers start from 1.

Normally it is expected that the dsa_device_ops :: rcv() method finishes
parsing the DSA tag and consumes it, then never looks at it again.
But commit c0bcf537667c ("net: dsa: ocelot: add hardware timestamping
support for Felix") added support for RX timestamping in a very
unconventional way. On this switch, a partial timestamp is available in
the DSA header, but the driver got away with not parsing that timestamp
right away, but instead delayed that parsing for a little longer:
dsa_switch_rcv():
nskb = cpu_dp->rcv(skb, dev); <------------- not here
-> ocelot_rcv()
...
skb = nskb;
skb_push(skb, ETH_HLEN);
skb->pkt_type = PACKET_HOST;
skb->protocol = eth_type_trans(skb, skb->dev);
...
if (dsa_skb_defer_rx_timestamp(p, skb)) <--- but here
-> felix_rxtstamp()
return 0;
When in felix_rxtstamp(), this driver accounted for the fact that
eth_type_trans() happened in the meanwhile, so it got a hold of the
extraction header again by subtracting (ETH_HLEN + OCELOT_TAG_LEN) bytes
from the current skb->data.
This worked for quite some time but was quite fragile from the very
beginning. Not to mention that having DSA tag parsing split in two
different files, under different folders (net/dsa/tag_ocelot.c vs
drivers/net/dsa/ocelot/felix.c) made it quite non-obvious for patches to
come that they might break this.
Finally, the blamed commit does the following: at the end of
ocelot_rcv(), it checks whether the skb payload contains a VLAN header.
If it does, and this port is under a VLAN-aware bridge, that VLAN ID
might not be correct in the sense that the packet might have suffered
VLAN rewriting due to TCAM rules (VCAP IS1). So we consume the VLAN ID
from the skb payload using __skb_vlan_pop(), and take the classified
VLAN ID from the DSA tag, and construct a hwaccel VLAN tag with the
classified VLAN, and the skb payload is VLAN-untagged.
The big problem is that __skb_vlan_pop() does:
memmove(skb->data + VLAN_HLEN, skb->data, 2 * ETH_ALEN);
__skb_pull(skb, VLAN_HLEN);
aka it moves the Ethernet header 4 bytes to the right, and pulls 4 bytes
from the skb headroom (effectively also moving skb->data, by definition).
So for felix_rxtstamp()'s fragile logic, all bets are off now.
Instead of having the "extraction" pointer point to the DSA header,
it actually points to 4 bytes _inside_ the extraction header.
Corollary, the last 4 bytes of the "extraction" header are in fact 4
stale bytes of the destination MAC address from the Ethernet header,
from prior to the __skb_vlan_pop() movement.
So of course, RX timestamps are completely bogus when the system is
configured in this way.
The fix is actually very simple: just don't structure the code like that.
For better or worse, the DSA PTP timestamping API does not offer a
straightforward way for drivers to present their RX timestamps, but
other drivers (sja1105) have established a simple mechanism to carry
their RX timestamp from dsa_device_ops :: rcv() all the way to
dsa_switch_ops :: port_rxtstamp() and even later. That mechanism is to
simply save the partial timestamp to the skb->cb, and complete it later.
Question: why don't we simply populate the skb's struct
skb_shared_hwtstamps from ocelot_rcv(), and bother with this
complication of propagating the timestamp to felix_rxtstamp()?
Answer: dsa_switch_ops :: port_rxtstamp() answers the question whether
PTP packets need sleepable context to retrieve the full RX timestamp.
Currently felix_rxtstamp() answers "no, thanks" to that question, and
calls ocelot_ptp_gettime64() from softirq atomic context. This is
understandable, since Felix VSC9959 is a PCIe memory-mapped switch, so
hardware access does not require sleeping. But the felix driver is
preparing for the introduction of other switches where hardware access
is over a slow bus like SPI or MDIO:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210814025003.2449143-1-colin.foster@in-advantage.com/
So I would like to keep this code structure, so the rework needed when
that driver will need PTP support will be minimal (answer "yes, I need
deferred context for this skb's RX timestamp", then the partial
timestamp will still be found in the skb->cb.

Michael reported that when using the "ocelot-8021q" tagging protocol,
the switch driver module must be manually loaded before the tagging
protocol can be loaded/is available.
This appears to be the same problem described here:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210908220834.d7gmtnwrorhharna@skbuf/
where due to the fact that DSA tagging protocols make use of symbols
exported by the switch drivers, circular dependencies appear and this
breaks module autoloading.
The ocelot_8021q driver needs the ocelot_can_inject() and
ocelot_port_inject_frame() functions from the switch library. Previously
the wrong approach was taken to solve that dependency: shims were
provided for the case where the ocelot switch library was compiled out,
but that turns out to be insufficient, because the dependency when the
switch lib _is_ compiled is problematic too.
We cannot declare ocelot_can_inject() and ocelot_port_inject_frame() as
static inline functions, because these access I/O functions like
__ocelot_write_ix() which is called by ocelot_write_rix(). Making those
static inline basically means exposing the whole guts of the ocelot
switch library, not ideal...
We already have one tagging protocol driver which calls into the switch
driver during xmit but not using any exported symbol: sja1105_defer_xmit.
We can do the same thing here: create a kthread worker and one work item
per skb, and let the switch driver itself do the register accesses to
send the skb, and then consume it.

As explained here:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210908220834.d7gmtnwrorhharna@skbuf/
DSA tagging protocol drivers cannot depend on symbols exported by switch
drivers, because this creates a circular dependency that breaks module
autoloading.
The tag_ocelot.c file depends on the ocelot_ptp_rew_op() function
exported by the common ocelot switch lib. This function looks at
OCELOT_SKB_CB(skb) and computes how to populate the REW_OP field of the
DSA tag, for PTP timestamping (the command: one-step/two-step, and the
TX timestamp identifier).
None of that requires deep insight into the driver, it is quite
stateless, as it only depends upon the skb->cb. So let's make it a
static inline function and put it in include/linux/dsa/ocelot.h, a
file that despite its name is used by the ocelot switch driver for

driver
It's nice to be able to test a tagging protocol with dsa_loop, but not
at the cost of losing the ability of building the tagging protocol and
switch driver as modules, because as things stand, there is a circular
dependency between the two. Tagging protocol drivers cannot depend on
switch drivers, that is a hard fact.
The reasoning behind the blamed patch was that accessing dp->priv should
first make sure that the structure behind that pointer is what we really
think it is.
Currently the "sja1105" and "sja1110" tagging protocols only operate
with the sja1105 switch driver, just like any other tagging protocol and
switch combination. The only way to mix and match them is by modifying
the code, and this applies to dsa_loop as well (by default that uses
DSA_TAG_PROTO_NONE). So while in principle there is an issue, in
practice there isn't one.
Until we extend dsa_loop to allow user space configuration, treat the
problem as a non-issue and just say that DSA ports found by tag_sja1105
are always sja1105 ports, which is in fact true. But keep the
dsa_port_is_sja1105 function so that it's easy to patch it during
testing, and rely on dead code elimination.

The problem is that DSA tagging protocols really must not depend on the
switch driver, because this creates a circular dependency at insmod
time, and the switch driver will effectively not load when the tagging
protocol driver is missing.
The code was structured in the way it was for a reason, though. The DSA
driver-facing API for PTP timestamping relies on the assumption that
two-step TX timestamps are provided by the hardware in an out-of-band
manner, typically by raising an interrupt and making that timestamp
available inside some sort of FIFO which is to be accessed over
SPI/MDIO/etc.
So the API puts .port_txtstamp into dsa_switch_ops, because it is
expected that the switch driver needs to save some state (like put the
skb into a queue until its TX timestamp arrives).
On SJA1110, TX timestamps are provided by the switch as Ethernet
packets, so this makes them be received and processed by the tagging
protocol driver. This in itself is great, because the timestamps are
full 64-bit and do not require reconstruction, and since Ethernet is the
fastest I/O method available to/from the switch, PTP timestamps arrive
very quickly, no matter how bottlenecked the SPI connection is, because
SPI interaction is not needed at all.
DSA's code structure and strict isolation between the tagging protocol
driver and the switch driver break the natural code organization.
When the tagging protocol driver receives a packet which is classified
as a metadata packet containing timestamps, it passes those timestamps
one by one to the switch driver, which then proceeds to compare them
based on the recorded timestamp ID that was generated in .port_txtstamp.
The communication between the tagging protocol and the switch driver is
done through a method exported by the switch driver, sja1110_process_meta_tstamp.
To satisfy build requirements, we force a dependency to build the
tagging protocol driver as a module when the switch driver is a module.
However, as explained in the first paragraph, that causes the circular
dependency.
To solve this, move the skb queue from struct sja1105_private :: struct
sja1105_ptp_data to struct sja1105_private :: struct sja1105_tagger_data.
The latter is a data structure for which hacks have already been put
into place to be able to create persistent storage per switch that is
accessible from the tagging protocol driver (see sja1105_setup_ports).
With the skb queue directly accessible from the tagging protocol driver,
we can now move sja1110_process_meta_tstamp into the tagging driver
itself, and avoid exporting a symbol.

Similar to commit 6087175b7991 ("net: dsa: mt7530: use independent VLAN
learning on VLAN-unaware bridges"), software forwarding between an
unoffloaded LAG port (a bonding interface with an unsupported policy)
and a mv88e6xxx user port directly under a bridge is broken.
We adopt the same strategy, which is to make the standalone ports not
find any ATU entry learned on a bridge port.
Theory: the mv88e6xxx ATU is looked up by FID and MAC address. There are
as many FIDs as VIDs (4096). The FID is derived from the VID when
possible (the VTU maps a VID to a FID), with a fallback to the port
based default FID value when not (802.1Q Mode is disabled on the port,
or the classified VID isn't present in the VTU).
The mv88e6xxx driver makes the following use of FIDs and VIDs:
- the port's DefaultVID (to which untagged & pvid-tagged packets get
classified) is 0 and is absent from the VTU, so this kind of packets is
processed in FID 0, the default FID assigned by mv88e6xxx_setup_port.
- every time a bridge VLAN is created, mv88e6xxx_port_vlan_join() ->
mv88e6xxx_atu_new() associates a FID with that VID which increases
linearly starting from 1. Like this:
bridge vlan add dev lan0 vid 100 # FID 1
bridge vlan add dev lan1 vid 100 # still FID 1
bridge vlan add dev lan2 vid 1024 # FID 2
The FID allocation made by the driver is sub-optimal for the following
reasons:
(a) A standalone port has a DefaultPVID of 0 and a default FID of 0 too.
A VLAN-unaware bridged port has a DefaultPVID of 0 and a default FID
of 0 too. The difference is that the bridged ports may learn ATU
entries, while the standalone port has the requirement that it must
not, and must not find them either. Standalone ports must not use
the same FID as ports belonging to a bridge. All standalone ports
can use the same FID, since the ATU will never have an entry in
that FID.
(b) Multiple VLAN-unaware bridges will all use a DefaultPVID of 0 and a
default FID of 0 on all their ports. The FDBs will not be isolated
between these bridges. Every VLAN-unaware bridge must use the same
FID on all its ports, different from the FID of other bridge ports.
(c) Each bridge VLAN uses a unique FID which is useful for Independent
VLAN Learning, but the same VLAN ID on multiple VLAN-aware bridges
will result in the same FID being used by mv88e6xxx_atu_new().
The correct behavior is for VLAN 1 in br0 to have a different FID
compared to VLAN 1 in br1.
This patch cannot fix all the above. Traditionally the DSA framework did
not care about this, and the reality is that DSA core involvement is
needed for the aforementioned issues to be solved. The only thing we can
solve here is an issue which does not require API changes, and that is
issue (a), aka use a different FID for standalone ports vs ports under
VLAN-unaware bridges.
The first step is deciding what VID and FID to use for standalone ports,
and what VID and FID for bridged ports. The 0/0 pair for standalone
ports is what they used up till now, let's keep using that. For bridged
ports, there are 2 cases:
- VLAN-aware ports will never end up using the port default FID, because
packets will always be classified to a VID in the VTU or dropped
otherwise. The FID is the one associated with the VID in the VTU.
- On VLAN-unaware ports, we _could_ leave their DefaultVID (pvid) at
zero (just as in the case of standalone ports), and just change the
port's default FID from 0 to a different number (say 1).
However, Tobias points out that there is one more requirement to cater to:
cross-chip bridging. The Marvell DSA header does not carry the FID in
it, only the VID. So once a packet crosses a DSA link, if it has a VID
of zero it will get classified to the default FID of that cascade port.
Relying on a port default FID for upstream cascade ports results in
contradictions: a default FID of 0 breaks ATU isolation of bridged ports
on the downstream switch, a default FID of 1 breaks standalone ports on
the downstream switch.
So not only must standalone ports have different FIDs compared to
bridged ports, they must also have different DefaultVID values.
IEEE 802.1Q defines two reserved VID values: 0 and 4095. So we simply
choose 4095 as the DefaultVID of ports belonging to VLAN-unaware
bridges, and VID 4095 maps to FID 1.
For the xmit operation to look up the same ATU database, we need to put
VID 4095 in DSA tags sent to ports belonging to VLAN-unaware bridges
too. All shared ports are configured to map this VID to the bridging
FID, because they are members of that VLAN in the VTU. Shared ports
don't need to have 802.1QMode enabled in any way, they always parse the
VID from the DSA header, they don't need to look at the 802.1Q header.
We install VID 4095 to the VTU in mv88e6xxx_setup_port(), with the
mention that mv88e6xxx_vtu_setup() which was located right below that
call was flushing the VTU so those entries wouldn't be preserved.
So we need to relocate the VTU flushing prior to the port initialization
during ->setup(). Also note that this is why it is safe to assume that
VID 4095 will get associated with FID 1: the user ports haven't been
created, so there is no avenue for the user to create a bridge VLAN
which could otherwise race with the creation of another FID which would
otherwise use up the non-reserved FID value of 1.
[ Currently mv88e6xxx_port_vlan_join() doesn't have the option of
specifying a preferred FID, it always calls mv88e6xxx_atu_new(). ]
mv88e6xxx_port_db_load_purge() is the function to access the ATU for
FDB/MDB entries, and it used to determine the FID to use for
VLAN-unaware FDB entries (VID=0) using mv88e6xxx_port_get_fid().
But the driver only called mv88e6xxx_port_set_fid() once, during probe,
so no surprises, the port FID was always 0, the call to get_fid() was
redundant. As much as I would have wanted to not touch that code, the
logic is broken when we add a new FID which is not the port-based
default. Now the port-based default FID only corresponds to standalone
ports, and FDB/MDB entries belong to the bridging service. So while in
the future, when the DSA API will support FDB isolation, we will have to
figure out the FID based on the bridge number, for now there's a single
bridging FID, so hardcode that.
Lastly, the tagger needs to check, when it is transmitting a VLAN
untagged skb, whether it is sending it towards a bridged or a standalone
port. When we see it is bridged we assume the bridge is VLAN-unaware.
Not because it cannot be VLAN-aware but:
- if we are transmitting from a VLAN-aware bridge we are likely doing so
using TX forwarding offload. That code path guarantees that skbs have
a vlan hwaccel tag in them, so we would not enter the "else" branch
of the "if (skb->protocol == htons(ETH_P_8021Q))" condition.
- if we are transmitting on behalf of a VLAN-aware bridge but with no TX
forwarding offload (no PVT support, out of space in the PVT, whatever),
we would indeed be transmitting with VLAN 4095 instead of the bridge
device's pvid. However we would be injecting a "From CPU" frame, and
the switch won't learn from that - it only learns from "Forward" frames.
So it is inconsequential for address learning. And VLAN 4095 is
absolutely enough for the frame to exit the switch, since we never
remove that VLAN from any port.

Introduced in commit 38b5beeae7a4 ("net: dsa: sja1105: prepare tagger
for handling DSA tags and VLAN simultaneously"), the sja1105_xmit_tpid
function solved quite a different problem than our needs are now.
Then, we used best-effort VLAN filtering and we were using the xmit_tpid
to tunnel packets coming from an 8021q upper through the TX VLAN allocated
by tag_8021q to that egress port. The need for a different VLAN protocol
depending on switch revision came from the fact that this in itself was
more of a hack to trick the hardware into accepting tunneled VLANs in
the first place.
Right now, we deny 8021q uppers (see sja1105_prechangeupper). Even if we
supported them again, we would not do that using the same method of
{tunneling the VLAN on egress, retagging the VLAN on ingress} that we
had in the best-effort VLAN filtering mode. It seems rather simpler that
we just allocate a VLAN in the VLAN table that is simply not used by the
bridge at all, or by any other port.
Anyway, I have 2 gripes with the current sja1105_xmit_tpid:
1. When sending packets on behalf of a VLAN-aware bridge (with the new
TX forwarding offload framework) plus untagged (with the tag_8021q
VLAN added by the tagger) packets, we can see that on SJA1105P/Q/R/S
and later (which have a qinq_tpid of ETH_P_8021AD), some packets sent
through the DSA master have a VLAN protocol of 0x8100 and others of
0x88a8. This is strange and there is no reason for it now. If we have
a bridge and are therefore forced to send using that bridge's TPID,
we can as well blend with that bridge's VLAN protocol for all packets.
2. The sja1105_xmit_tpid introduces a dependency on the sja1105 driver,
because it looks inside dp->priv. It is desirable to keep as much
separation between taggers and switch drivers as possible. Now it
doesn't do that anymore.

The sja1105 driver is a bit special in its use of VLAN headers as DSA
tags. This is because in VLAN-aware mode, the VLAN headers use an actual
TPID of 0x8100, which is understood even by the DSA master as an actual
VLAN header.
Furthermore, control packets such as PTP and STP are transmitted with no
VLAN header as a DSA tag, because, depending on switch generation, there
are ways to steer these control packets towards a precise egress port
other than VLAN tags. Transmitting control packets as untagged means
leaving a door open for traffic in general to be transmitted as untagged
from the DSA master, and for it to traverse the switch and exit a random
switch port according to the FDB lookup.
This behavior is a bit out of line with other DSA drivers which have
native support for DSA tagging. There, it is to be expected that the
switch only accepts DSA-tagged packets on its CPU port, dropping
everything that does not match this pattern.
We perhaps rely a bit too much on the switches' hardware dropping on the
CPU port, and place no other restrictions in the kernel data path to
avoid that. For example, sja1105 is also a bit special in that STP/PTP
packets are transmitted using "management routes"
(sja1105_port_deferred_xmit): when sending a link-local packet from the
CPU, we must first write a SPI message to the switch to tell it to
expect a packet towards multicast MAC DA 01-80-c2-00-00-0e, and to route
it towards port 3 when it gets it. This entry expires as soon as it
matches a packet received by the switch, and it needs to be reinstalled
for the next packet etc. All in all quite a ghetto mechanism, but it is
all that the sja1105 switches offer for injecting a control packet.
The driver takes a mutex for serializing control packets and making the
pairs of SPI writes of a management route and its associated skb atomic,
but to be honest, a mutex is only relevant as long as all parties agree
to take it. With the DSA design, it is possible to open an AF_PACKET
socket on the DSA master net device, and blast packets towards
01-80-c2-00-00-0e, and whatever locking the DSA switch driver might use,
it all goes kaput because management routes installed by the driver will
match skbs sent by the DSA master, and not skbs generated by the driver
itself. So they will end up being routed on the wrong port.
So through the lens of that, maybe it would make sense to avoid that
from happening by doing something in the network stack, like: introduce
a new bit in struct sk_buff, like xmit_from_dsa. Then, somewhere around
dev_hard_start_xmit(), introduce the following check:
if (netdev_uses_dsa(dev) && !skb->xmit_from_dsa)
kfree_skb(skb);
Ok, maybe that is a bit drastic, but that would at least prevent a bunch
of problems. For example, right now, even though the majority of DSA
switches drop packets without DSA tags sent by the DSA master (and
therefore the majority of garbage that user space daemons like avahi and
udhcpcd and friends create), it is still conceivable that an aggressive
user space program can open an AF_PACKET socket and inject a spoofed DSA
tag directly on the DSA master. We have no protection against that; the
packet will be understood by the switch and be routed wherever user
space says. Furthermore: there are some DSA switches where we even have
register access over Ethernet, using DSA tags. So even user space
drivers are possible in this way. This is a huge hole.
However, the biggest thing that bothers me is that udhcpcd attempts to
ask for an IP address on all interfaces by default, and with sja1105, it
will attempt to get a valid IP address on both the DSA master as well as
on sja1105 switch ports themselves. So with IP addresses in the same
subnet on multiple interfaces, the routing table will be messed up and
the system will be unusable for traffic until it is configured manually
to not ask for an IP address on the DSA master itself.
It turns out that it is possible to avoid that in the sja1105 driver, at
least very superficially, by requesting the switch to drop VLAN-untagged
packets on the CPU port. With the exception of control packets, all
traffic originated from tag_sja1105.c is already VLAN-tagged, so only
STP and PTP packets need to be converted. For that, we need to uphold
the equivalence between an untagged and a pvid-tagged packet, and to
remember that the CPU port of sja1105 uses a pvid of 4095.
Now that we drop untagged traffic on the CPU port, non-aggressive user
space applications like udhcpcd stop bothering us, and sja1105 effectively
becomes just as vulnerable to the aggressive kind of user space programs
as other DSA switches are (ok, users can also create 8021q uppers on top
of the DSA master in the case of sja1105, but in future patches we can
easily deny that, but it still doesn't change the fact that VLAN-tagged
packets can still be injected over raw sockets).

Add support for tag_sja1105 running on non-sja1105 DSA ports, by making
sure that every time we dereference dp->priv, we check the switch's
dsa_switch_ops (otherwise we access a struct sja1105_port structure that
is in fact something else).
This adds an unconditional build-time dependency between sja1105 being
built as module => tag_sja1105 must also be built as module. This was
there only for PTP before.
Some sane defaults must also take place when not running on sja1105
hardware. These are:
- sja1105_xmit_tpid: the sja1105 driver uses different VLAN protocols
depending on VLAN awareness and switch revision (when an encapsulated
VLAN must be sent). Default to 0x8100.
- sja1105_rcv_meta_state_machine: this aggregates PTP frames with their
metadata timestamp frames. When running on non-sja1105 hardware, don't
do that and accept all frames unmodified.
- sja1105_defer_xmit: calls sja1105_port_deferred_xmit in sja1105_main.c
which writes a management route over SPI. When not running on sja1105
hardware, bypass the SPI write and send the frame as-is.

The main desire for having this feature in sja1105 is to support network
stack termination for traffic coming from a VLAN-aware bridge.
For sja1105, offloading the bridge data plane means sending packets
as-is, with the proper VLAN tag, to the chip. The chip will look up its
FDB and forward them to the correct destination port.
But we support bridge data plane offload even for VLAN-unaware bridges,
and the implementation there is different. In fact, VLAN-unaware
bridging is governed by tag_8021q, so it makes sense to have the
.bridge_fwd_offload_add() implementation fully within tag_8021q.
The key difference is that we only support 1 VLAN-aware bridge, but we
support multiple VLAN-unaware bridges. So we need to make sure that the
forwarding domain is not crossed by packets injected from the stack.
For this, we introduce the concept of a tag_8021q TX VLAN for bridge
forwarding offload. As opposed to the regular TX VLANs which contain
only 2 ports (the user port and the CPU port), a bridge data plane TX
VLAN is "multicast" (or "imprecise"): it contains all the ports that are
part of a certain bridge, and the hardware will select where the packet
goes within this "imprecise" forwarding domain.
Each VLAN-unaware bridge has its own "imprecise" TX VLAN, so we make use
of the unique "bridge_num" provided by DSA for the data plane offload.
We use the same 3 bits from the tag_8021q VLAN ID format to encode this
bridge number.
Note that these 3 bit positions have been used before for sub-VLANs in
best-effort VLAN filtering mode. The difference is that for best-effort,
the sub-VLANs were only valid on RX (and it was documented that the
sub-VLAN field needed to be transmitted as zero). Whereas for the bridge

The big problem which mandates cross-chip notifiers for tag_8021q is
this:
|
sw0p0 sw0p1 sw0p2 sw0p3 sw0p4
[ user ] [ user ] [ user ] [ dsa ] [ cpu ]
|
+---------+
|
sw1p0 sw1p1 sw1p2 sw1p3 sw1p4
[ user ] [ user ] [ user ] [ dsa ] [ dsa ]
|
+---------+
|
sw2p0 sw2p1 sw2p2 sw2p3 sw2p4
[ user ] [ user ] [ user ] [ dsa ] [ dsa ]
When the user runs:
ip link add br0 type bridge
ip link set sw0p0 master br0
ip link set sw2p0 master br0
It doesn't work.
This is because dsa_8021q_crosschip_bridge_join() assumes that "ds" and
"other_ds" are at most 1 hop away from each other, so it is sufficient
to add the RX VLAN of {ds, port} into {other_ds, other_port} and vice
versa and presto, the cross-chip link works. When there is another
switch in the middle, such as in this case switch 1 with its DSA links
sw1p3 and sw1p4, somebody needs to tell it about these VLANs too.
Which is exactly why the problem is quadratic: when a port joins a
bridge, for each port in the tree that's already in that same bridge we
notify a tag_8021q VLAN addition of that port's RX VLAN to the entire
tree. It is a very complicated web of VLANs.
It must be mentioned that currently we install tag_8021q VLANs on too
many ports (DSA links - to be precise, on all of them). For example,
when sw2p0 joins br0, and assuming sw1p0 was part of br0 too, we add the
RX VLAN of sw2p0 on the DSA links of switch 0 too, even though there
isn't any port of switch 0 that is a member of br0 (at least yet).
In theory we could notify only the switches which sit in between the
port joining the bridge and the port reacting to that bridge_join event.
But in practice that is impossible, because of the way 'link' properties
are described in the device tree. The DSA bindings require DT writers to
list out not only the real/physical DSA links, but in fact the entire
routing table, like for example switch 0 above will have:
sw0p3: port@3 {
link = <&sw1p4 &sw2p4>;
};
This was done because:
/* TODO: ideally DSA ports would have a single dp->link_dp member,
* and no dst->rtable nor this struct dsa_link would be needed,
* but this would require some more complex tree walking,
* so keep it stupid at the moment and list them all.
*/
but it is a perfect example of a situation where too much information is
actively detrimential, because we are now in the position where we
cannot distinguish a real DSA link from one that is put there to avoid
the 'complex tree walking'. And because DT is ABI, there is not much we
can change.
And because we do not know which DSA links are real and which ones
aren't, we can't really know if DSA switch A is in the data path between
switches B and C, in the general case.
So this is why tag_8021q RX VLANs are added on all DSA links, and
probably why it will never change.
On the other hand, at least the number of additions/deletions is well
balanced, and this means that once we implement reference counting at
the cross-chip notifier level a la fdb/mdb, there is absolutely zero
need for a struct dsa_8021q_crosschip_link, it's all self-managing.
In fact, with the tag_8021q notifiers emitted from the bridge join
notifiers, it becomes so generic that sja1105 does not need to do
anything anymore, we can just delete its implementation of the
.crosschip_bridge_{join,leave} methods.
Among other things we can simply delete is the home-grown implementation
of sja1105_notify_crosschip_switches(). The reason why that is wrong is
because it is not quadratic - it only covers remote switches to which we
have a cross-chip bridging link and that does not cover in-between
switches. This deletion is part of the same patch because sja1105 used
to poke deep inside the guts of the tag_8021q context in order to do
that. Because the cross-chip links went away, so needs the sja1105 code.
Last but not least, dsa_8021q_setup_port() is simplified (and also
renamed). Because our TAG_8021Q_VLAN_ADD notifier is designed to react
on the CPU port too, the four dsa_8021q_vid_apply() calls:
- 1 for RX VLAN on user port
- 1 for the user port's RX VLAN on the CPU port
- 1 for TX VLAN on user port
- 1 for the user port's TX VLAN on the CPU port
now get squashed into only 2 notifier calls via
dsa_port_tag_8021q_vlan_add.
And because the notifiers to add and to delete a tag_8021q VLAN are
distinct, now we finally break up the port setup and teardown into
separate functions instead of relying on a "bool enabled" flag which
tells us what to do. Arguably it should have been this way from the
get go.

Right now, setting up tag_8021q is a 2-step operation for a driver,
first the context structure needs to be created, then the VLANs need to
be installed on the ports. A similar thing is true for teardown.
Merge the 2 steps into the register/unregister methods, to be as
transparent as possible for the driver as to what tag_8021q does behind
the scenes. This also gets rid of the funny "bool setup == true means
setup, == false means teardown" API that tag_8021q used to expose.
Note that dsa_tag_8021q_register() must be called at least in the
.setup() driver method and never earlier (like in the driver probe
function). This is because the DSA switch tree is not initialized at
probe time, and the cross-chip notifiers will not work.
For symmetry with .setup(), the unregister method should be put in
.teardown().

The basic problem description is as follows:
Be there 3 switches in a daisy chain topology:
|
sw0p0 sw0p1 sw0p2 sw0p3 sw0p4
[ user ] [ user ] [ user ] [ dsa ] [ cpu ]
|
+---------+
|
sw1p0 sw1p1 sw1p2 sw1p3 sw1p4
[ user ] [ user ] [ user ] [ dsa ] [ dsa ]
|
+---------+
|
sw2p0 sw2p1 sw2p2 sw2p3 sw2p4
[ user ] [ user ] [ user ] [ user ] [ dsa ]
The CPU will not be able to ping through the user ports of the
bottom-most switch (like for example sw2p0), simply because tag_8021q
was not coded up for this scenario - it has always assumed DSA switch
trees with a single switch.
To add support for the topology above, we must admit that the RX VLAN of
sw2p0 must be added on some ports of switches 0 and 1 as well. This is
in fact a textbook example of thing that can use the cross-chip notifier
framework that DSA has set up in switch.c.
There is only one problem: core DSA (switch.c) is not able right now to
make the connection between a struct dsa_switch *ds and a struct
dsa_8021q_context *ctx. Right now, it is drivers who call into
tag_8021q.c and always provide a struct dsa_8021q_context *ctx pointer,
and tag_8021q.c calls them back with the .tag_8021q_vlan_{add,del}
methods.
But with cross-chip notifiers, it is possible for tag_8021q to call
drivers without drivers having ever asked for anything. A good example
is right above: when sw2p0 wants to set itself up for tag_8021q,
the .tag_8021q_vlan_add method needs to be called for switches 1 and 0,
so that they transport sw2p0's VLANs towards the CPU without dropping
them.
So instead of letting drivers manage the tag_8021q context, add a
tag_8021q_ctx pointer inside of struct dsa_switch, which will be
populated when dsa_tag_8021q_register() returns success.
The patch is fairly long-winded because we are partly reverting commit
5899ee367ab3 ("net: dsa: tag_8021q: add a context structure") which made
the driver-facing tag_8021q API use "ctx" instead of "ds". Now that we
can access "ctx" directly from "ds", this is no longer needed.

In preparation of moving tag_8021q to core DSA, move all initialization
and teardown related to tag_8021q which is currently done by drivers in
2 functions called "register" and "unregister". These will gather more
functionality in future patches, which will better justify the chosen
naming scheme.

Simply put, the best-effort VLAN filtering mode relied on VLAN retagging
from a bridge VLAN towards a tag_8021q sub-VLAN in order to be able to
decode the source port in the tagger, but the VLAN retagging
implementation inside the sja1105 chips is not the best and we were
relying on marginal operating conditions.
The most notable limitation of the best-effort VLAN filtering mode is
its incapacity to treat this case properly:
ip link add br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1
ip link set swp2 master br0
ip link set swp4 master br0
bridge vlan del dev swp4 vid 1
bridge vlan add dev swp4 vid 1 pvid
When sending an untagged packet through swp2, the expectation is for it
to be forwarded to swp4 as egress-tagged (so it will contain VLAN ID 1
on egress). But the switch will send it as egress-untagged.
There was an attempt to fix this here:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20210407201452.1703261-2-olteanv@gmail.com/
but it failed miserably because it broke PTP RX timestamping, in a way
that cannot be corrected due to hardware issues related to VLAN
retagging.
So with either PTP broken or pushing VLAN headers on egress for untagged
packets being broken, the sad reality is that the best-effort VLAN
filtering code is broken. Delete it.
Note that this means there will be a temporary loss of functionality in
this driver until it is replaced with something better (network stack
RX/TX capability for "mode 2" as described in
Documentation/networking/dsa/sja1105.rst, the "port under VLAN-aware
bridge" case). We simply cannot keep this code until that driver rework
is done, it is super bloated and tangled with tag_8021q.

The TX timestamping procedure for SJA1105 is a bit unconventional
because the transmit procedure itself is unconventional.
Control packets (and therefore PTP as well) are transmitted to a
specific port in SJA1105 using "management routes" which must be written
over SPI to the switch. These are one-shot rules that match by
destination MAC address on traffic coming from the CPU port, and select
the precise destination port for that packet. So to transmit a packet
from NET_TX softirq context, we actually need to defer to a process
context so that we can perform that SPI write before we send the packet.
The DSA master dev_queue_xmit() runs in process context, and we poll
until the switch confirms it took the TX timestamp, then we annotate the
skb clone with that TX timestamp. This is why the sja1105 driver does
not need an skb queue for TX timestamping.
But the SJA1110 is a bit (not much!) more conventional, and you can
request 2-step TX timestamping through the DSA header, as well as give
the switch a cookie (timestamp ID) which it will give back to you when
it has the timestamp. So now we do need a queue for keeping the skb
clones until their TX timestamps become available.
The interesting part is that the metadata frames from SJA1105 haven't
disappeared completely. On SJA1105 they were used as follow-ups which
contained RX timestamps, but on SJA1110 they are actually TX completion
packets, which contain a variable (up to 32) array of timestamps.
Why an array? Because:
- not only is the TX timestamp on the egress port being communicated,
but also the RX timestamp on the CPU port. Nice, but we don't care
about that, so we ignore it.
- because a packet could be multicast to multiple egress ports, each
port takes its own timestamp, and the TX completion packet contains
the individual timestamps on each port.
This is unconventional because switches typically have a timestamping
FIFO and raise an interrupt, but this one doesn't. So the tagger needs
to detect and parse meta frames, and call into the main switch driver,
which pairs the timestamps with the skbs in the TX timestamping queue
which are waiting for one.

The SJA1110 has improved a few things compared to SJA1105:
- To send a control packet from the host port with SJA1105, one needed
to program a one-shot "management route" over SPI. This is no longer
true with SJA1110, you can actually send "in-band control extensions"
in the packets sent by DSA, these are in fact DSA tags which contain
the destination port and switch ID.
- When receiving a control packet from the switch with SJA1105, the
source port and switch ID were written in bytes 3 and 4 of the
destination MAC address of the frame (which was a very poor shot at a
DSA header). If the control packet also had an RX timestamp, that
timestamp was sent in an actual follow-up packet, so there were
reordering concerns on multi-core/multi-queue DSA masters, where the
metadata frame with the RX timestamp might get processed before the
actual packet to which that timestamp belonged (there is no way to
pair a packet to its timestamp other than the order in which they were
received). On SJA1110, this is no longer true, control packets have
the source port, switch ID and timestamp all in the DSA tags.
- Timestamps from the switch were partial: to get a 64-bit timestamp as
required by PTP stacks, one would need to take the partial 24-bit or
32-bit timestamp from the packet, then read the current PTP time very
quickly, and then patch in the high bits of the current PTP time into
the captured partial timestamp, to reconstruct what the full 64-bit
timestamp must have been. That is awful because packet processing is
done in NAPI context, but reading the current PTP time is done over
SPI and therefore needs sleepable context.
But it also aggravated a few things:
- Not only is there a DSA header in SJA1110, but there is a DSA trailer
in fact, too. So DSA needs to be extended to support taggers which
have both a header and a trailer. Very unconventional - my understanding
is that the trailer exists because the timestamps couldn't be prepared
in time for putting them in the header area.
- Like SJA1105, not all packets sent to the CPU have the DSA tag added
to them, only control packets do:
* the ones which match the destination MAC filters/traps in
MAC_FLTRES1 and MAC_FLTRES0
* the ones which match FDB entries which have TRAP or TAKETS bits set
So we could in theory hack something up to request the switch to take
timestamps for all packets that reach the CPU, and those would be
DSA-tagged and contain the source port / switch ID by virtue of the
fact that there needs to be a timestamp trailer provided. BUT:
- The SJA1110 does not parse its own DSA tags in a way that is useful
for routing in cross-chip topologies, a la Marvell. And the sja1105
driver already supports cross-chip bridging from the SJA1105 days.
It does that by automatically setting up the DSA links as VLAN trunks
which contain all the necessary tag_8021q RX VLANs that must be
communicated between the switches that span the same bridge. So when
using tag_8021q on sja1105, it is possible to have 2 switches with
ports sw0p0, sw0p1, sw1p0, sw1p1, and 2 VLAN-unaware bridges br0 and
br1, and br0 can take sw0p0 and sw1p0, and br1 can take sw0p1 and
sw1p1, and forwarding will happen according to the expected rules of
the Linux bridge.
We like that, and we don't want that to go away, so as a matter of
fact, the SJA1110 tagger still needs to support tag_8021q.
So the sja1110 tagger is a hybrid between tag_8021q for data packets,
and the native hardware support for control packets.
On RX, packets have a 13-byte trailer if they contain an RX timestamp.
That trailer is padded in such a way that its byte 8 (the start of the
"residence time" field - not parsed by Linux because we don't care) is
aligned on a 16 byte boundary. So the padding has a variable length
between 0 and 15 bytes. The DSA header contains the offset of the
beginning of the padding relative to the beginning of the frame (and the
end of the padding is obviously the end of the packet minus 13 bytes,
the length of the trailer). So we discard it.
Packets which don't have a trailer contain the source port and switch ID
information in the header (they are "trap-to-host" packets). Packets
which have a trailer contain the source port and switch ID in the trailer.
On TX, the destination port mask and switch ID is always in the trailer,
so we always need to say in the header that a trailer is present.
The header needs a custom EtherType and this was chosen as 0xdadc, after
0xdada which is for Marvell and 0xdadb which is for VLANs in
VLAN-unaware mode on SJA1105 (and SJA1110 in fact too).
Because we use tag_8021q in concert with the native tagging protocol,
control packets will have 2 DSA tags.

In SJA1105, RX timestamps for packets sent to the CPU are transmitted in
separate follow-up packets (metadata frames). These contain partial
timestamps (24 or 32 bits) which are kept in SJA1105_SKB_CB(skb)->meta_tstamp.
Thankfully, SJA1110 improved that, and the RX timestamps are now
transmitted in-band with the actual packet, in the timestamp trailer.
The RX timestamps are now full-width 64 bits.
Because we process the RX DSA tags in the rcv() method in the tagger,
but we would like to preserve the DSA code structure in that we populate
the skb timestamp in the port_rxtstamp() call which only happens later,
the implication is that we must somehow pass the 64-bit timestamp from
the rcv() method all the way to port_rxtstamp(). We can use the skb->cb
for that.
Rename the meta_tstamp from struct sja1105_skb_cb from "meta_tstamp" to
"tstamp", and increase its size to 64 bits.

The added value of this function is that it can deal with both the case
where the VLAN header is in the skb head, as well as in the offload field.
This is something I was not able to do using other functions in the
network stack.
Since both ocelot-8021q and sja1105 need to do the same stuff, let's
make it a common service provided by tag_8021q.
This is done as refactoring for the new SJA1110 tagger, which partly
uses tag_8021q as well (just like SJA1105), and will be the third caller.
