Add a new VLAN attribute that allows user space to set the neighbor
suppression state of the port VLAN. Example:

 # bridge -d -j -p vlan show dev swp1 vid 10 | jq '.[]["vlans"][]["neigh_suppress"]'
 false
 # bridge vlan set vid 10 dev swp1 neigh_suppress on
 # bridge -d -j -p vlan show dev swp1 vid 10 | jq '.[]["vlans"][]["neigh_suppress"]'
 true
 # bridge vlan set vid 10 dev swp1 neigh_suppress off
 # bridge -d -j -p vlan show dev swp1 vid 10 | jq '.[]["vlans"][]["neigh_suppress"]'
 false

 # bridge vlan set vid 10 dev br0 neigh_suppress on
 Error: bridge: Can't set neigh_suppress for non-port vlans.

<title>net: bridge: Add netlink knobs for number / maximum MDB entries</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=a1aee20d5db29dc73331067b6a338eb650f0b5f1'/>
<id>a1aee20d5db29dc73331067b6a338eb650f0b5f1</id>
<content type='text'>
The previous patch added accounting for number of MDB entries per port and
per port-VLAN, and the logic to verify that these values stay within
configured bounds. However it didn't provide means to actually configure
those bounds or read the occupancy. This patch does that.

Two new netlink attributes are added for the MDB occupancy:
IFLA_BRPORT_MCAST_N_GROUPS for the per-port occupancy and
BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY_MCAST_N_GROUPS for the per-port-VLAN occupancy.
And another two for the maximum number of MDB entries:
IFLA_BRPORT_MCAST_MAX_GROUPS for the per-port maximum, and
BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY_MCAST_MAX_GROUPS for the per-port-VLAN one.

Note that the two new IFLA_BRPORT_ attributes prompt bumping of
RTNL_SLAVE_MAX_TYPE to size the slave attribute tables large enough.

The new attributes are used like this:

 # ip link add name br up type bridge vlan_filtering 1 mcast_snooping 1 \
                                      mcast_vlan_snooping 1 mcast_querier 1

 # bridge vlan add dev v1 vid 2

 # bridge vlan set dev v1 vid 1 mcast_max_groups 1
 # bridge mdb add dev br port v1 grp 230.1.2.3 temp vid 1
 # bridge mdb add dev br port v1 grp 230.1.2.4 temp vid 1
 Error: bridge: Port-VLAN is already in 1 groups, and mcast_max_groups=1.

<title>bridge: switchdev: Fix memory leaks when changing VLAN protocol</title>

<content type='text'>
The bridge driver can offload VLANs to the underlying hardware either
via switchdev or the 8021q driver. When the former is used, the VLAN is
marked in the bridge driver with the 'BR_VLFLAG_ADDED_BY_SWITCHDEV'
private flag.

To avoid the memory leaks mentioned in the cited commit, the bridge
driver will try to delete a VLAN via the 8021q driver if the VLAN is not
marked with the previously mentioned flag.

When the VLAN protocol of the bridge changes, switchdev drivers are
notified via the 'SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_BRIDGE_VLAN_PROTOCOL' attribute, but
the 8021q driver is also called to add the existing VLANs with the new
protocol and delete them with the old protocol.

In case the VLANs were offloaded via switchdev, the above behavior is
both redundant and buggy. Redundant because the VLANs are already
programmed in hardware and drivers that support VLAN protocol change
(currently only mlx5) change the protocol upon the switchdev attribute
notification. Buggy because the 8021q driver is called despite these
VLANs being marked with 'BR_VLFLAG_ADDED_BY_SWITCHDEV'. This leads to
memory leaks [1] when the VLANs are deleted.

Fix by not calling the 8021q driver for VLANs that were already
programmed via switchdev.

Allow the user to switch from the current per-VLAN STP mode to an MST
mode.

Up to this point, per-VLAN STP states where always isolated from each
other. This is in contrast to the MSTP standard (802.1Q-2018, Clause
13.5), where VLANs are grouped into MST instances (MSTIs), and the
state is managed on a per-MSTI level, rather that at the per-VLAN
level.

Perhaps due to the prevalence of the standard, many switching ASICs
are built after the same model. Therefore, add a corresponding MST
mode to the bridge, which we can later add offloading support for in a
straight-forward way.

For now, all VLANs are fixed to MSTI 0, also called the Common
Spanning Tree (CST). That is, all VLANs will follow the port-global
state.

Upcoming changes will make this actually useful by allowing VLANs to
be mapped to arbitrary MSTIs and allow individual MSTI states to be
changed.

br_switchdev_port_vlan_add() currently emits a SWITCHDEV_PORT_OBJ_ADD
event with a SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_VLAN for 2 distinct cases:

- a struct net_bridge_vlan got created
- an existing struct net_bridge_vlan was modified

This makes it impossible for switchdev drivers to properly balance
PORT_OBJ_ADD with PORT_OBJ_DEL events, so if we want to allow that to
happen, we must provide a way for drivers to distinguish between a
VLAN with changed flags and a new one.

Annotate struct switchdev_obj_port_vlan with a "bool changed" that
distinguishes the 2 cases above.

<title>net: bridge: vlan: notify switchdev only when something changed</title>

Currently, when a VLAN entry is added multiple times in a row to a
bridge port, nbp_vlan_add() calls br_switchdev_port_vlan_add() each
time, even if the VLAN already exists and nothing about it has changed:

bridge vlan add dev lan12 vid 100 master static

Similarly, when a VLAN is added multiple times in a row to a bridge,
br_vlan_add_existing() doesn't filter at all the calls to
br_switchdev_port_vlan_add():

bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 100 self

This behavior makes driver-level accounting of VLANs impossible, since
it is enough for a single deletion event to remove a VLAN, but the
addition event can be emitted an unlimited number of times.

The cause for this can be identified as follows: we rely on
__vlan_add_flags() to retroactively tell us whether it has changed
anything about the VLAN flags or VLAN group pvid. So we'd first have to
call __vlan_add_flags() before calling br_switchdev_port_vlan_add(), in
order to have access to the "bool *changed" information. But we don't
want to change the event ordering, because we'd have to revert the
struct net_bridge_vlan changes we've made if switchdev returns an error.

So to solve this, we need another function that tells us whether any
change is going to occur in the VLAN or VLAN group, _prior_ to calling
__vlan_add_flags().

Split __vlan_add_flags() into a precommit and a commit stage, and rename
it to __vlan_flags_update(). The precommit stage,
__vlan_flags_would_change(), will determine whether there is any reason
to notify switchdev due to a change of flags (note: the BRENTRY flag
transition from false to true is treated separately: as a new switchdev
entry, because we skipped notifying the master VLAN when it wasn't a
brentry yet, and therefore not as a change of flags).

With this lookahead/precommit function in place, we can avoid notifying
switchdev if nothing changed for the VLAN and VLAN group.

<title>net: bridge: vlan: make __vlan_add_flags react only to PVID and UNTAGGED</title>

Currently there is a very subtle aspect to the behavior of
__vlan_add_flags(): it changes the struct net_bridge_vlan flags and
pvid, yet it returns true ("changed") even if none of those changed,
just a transition of br_vlan_is_brentry(v) took place from false to
true.

This can be seen in br_vlan_add_existing(), however we do not actually
rely on this subtle behavior, since the "if" condition that checks that
the vlan wasn't a brentry before had a useless (until now) assignment:

	*changed = true;

Make things more obvious by actually making __vlan_add_flags() do what's
written on the box, and be more specific about what is actually written
on the box. This is needed because further transformations will be done
to __vlan_add_flags().
