[ Upstream commit b6677449dff674cf5b81429b11d5c7f358852ef9 ]

Any bridge options specified during link creation (e.g. ip link add)
are ignored as br_dev_newlink() does not process them.
Use br_changelink() to do it.

[ Upstream commit 7cb3f9214dfa443c1ccc2be637dcc6344cc203f0 ]

Satish reported a problem with the perm multicast router ports not getting
reenabled after some series of events, in particular if it happens that the
multicast snooping has been disabled and the port goes to disabled state
then it will be deleted from the router port list, but if it moves into
non-disabled state it will not be re-added because the mcast snooping is
still disabled, and enabling snooping later does nothing.

Here are the steps to reproduce, setup br0 with snooping enabled and eth1
added as a perm router (multicast_router = 2):
1. $ echo 0 &gt; /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/multicast_snooping
2. $ ip l set eth1 down
^ This step deletes the interface from the router list
3. $ ip l set eth1 up
^ This step does not add it again because mcast snooping is disabled
4. $ echo 1 &gt; /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/multicast_snooping
5. $ bridge -d -s mdb show
&lt;empty&gt;

At this point we have mcast enabled and eth1 as a perm router (value = 2)
but it is not in the router list which is incorrect.

After this change:
1. $ echo 0 &gt; /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/multicast_snooping
2. $ ip l set eth1 down
^ This step deletes the interface from the router list
3. $ ip l set eth1 up
^ This step does not add it again because mcast snooping is disabled
4. $ echo 1 &gt; /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/multicast_snooping
5. $ bridge -d -s mdb show
router ports on br0: eth1

Note: we can directly do br_multicast_enable_port for all because the
querier timer already has checks for the port state and will simply
expire if it's in blocking/disabled. See the comment added by
commit 9aa66382163e7 ("bridge: multicast: add a comment to
br_port_state_selection about blocking state")

commit 47cc84ce0c2f ("bridge: fix parsing of MLDv2 reports"). This

<title>Bridge: Fix ipv6 mc snooping if bridge has no ipv6 address</title>

[ Upstream commit 0888d5f3c0f183ea6177355752ada433d370ac89 ]

The bridge is falsly dropping ipv6 mulitcast packets if there is:
 1. No ipv6 address assigned on the brigde.
 2. No external mld querier present.
 3. The internal querier enabled.

When the bridge fails to build mld queries, because it has no
ipv6 address, it slilently returns, but keeps the local querier enabled.
This specific case causes confusing packet loss.

Ipv6 multicast snooping can only work if:
 a) An external querier is present
 OR
 b) The bridge has an ipv6 address an is capable of sending own queries

Otherwise it has to forward/flood the ipv6 multicast traffic,
because snooping cannot work.

This patch fixes the issue by adding a flag to the bridge struct that
indicates that there is currently no ipv6 address assinged to the bridge
and returns a false state for the local querier in
__br_multicast_querier_exists().

Special thanks to Linus Lüssing.

[ Upstream commit 856ce5d083e14571d051301fe3c65b32b8cbe321 ]

With the newly introduced helper functions the skb pulling is hidden
in the checksumming function - and undone before returning to the
caller.

The IGMP and MLD query parsing functions in the bridge still
assumed that the skb is pointing to the beginning of the IGMP/MLD
message while it is now kept at the beginning of the IPv4/6 header.

If there is a querier somewhere else, then this either causes
the multicast snooping to stay disabled even though it could be
enabled. Or, if we have the querier enabled too, then this can
create unnecessary IGMP / MLD query messages on the link.

Fixing this by taking the offset between IP and IGMP/MLD header into
account, too.

get_bridge_ifindices() is used from the old "deviceless" bridge ioctl

Since it only reads bridge ifindices, we can use rcu to safely walk the net
device list. Also remove the wrong rtnl comment above.

[ Upstream commit 5e263f712691615fb802f06c98d7638c378f5d11 ]

When NET_SWITCHDEV=n, switchdev_port_attr_set will return -EOPNOTSUPP,
we should ignore this error code and continue to set the ageing time.

[ Upstream commit 4c656c13b254d598e83e586b7b4d36a2043dad85 ]

This fixes a regression in the bridge ageing time caused by:
commit c62987bbd8a1 ("bridge: push bridge setting ageing_time down to switchdev")

There are users of Linux bridge which use the feature that if ageing time
is set to 0 it causes entries to never expire. See:
  https://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networking/bridge

For a pure software bridge, it is unnecessary for the code to have
arbitrary restrictions on what values are allowable.

<title>switchdev: Require RTNL mutex to be held when sending FDB notifications</title>

[ Upstream commit 4f2c6ae5c64c353fb1b0425e4747e5603feadba1 ]

When switchdev drivers process FDB notifications from the underlying
device they resolve the netdev to which the entry points to and notify
the bridge using the switchdev notifier.

However, since the RTNL mutex is not held there is nothing preventing
the netdev from disappearing in the middle, which will cause
br_switchdev_event() to dereference a non-existing netdev.

Make switchdev drivers hold the lock at the beginning of the
notification processing session and release it once it ends, after
notifying the bridge.

Also, remove switchdev_mutex and fdb_lock, as they are no longer needed
when RTNL mutex is held.
