      dsa: add switch chip cascading support · e84665c9
      Lennert Buytenhek 提交于
      The initial version of the DSA driver only supported a single switch
      chip per network interface, while DSA-capable switch chips can be
      interconnected to form a tree of switch chips.  This patch adds support
      for multiple switch chips on a network interface.
      
      An example topology for a 16-port device with an embedded CPU is as
      follows:
      
      	+-----+          +--------+       +--------+
      	|     |eth0    10| switch |9    10| switch |
      	| CPU +----------+        +-------+        |
      	|     |          | chip 0 |       | chip 1 |
      	+-----+          +---++---+       +---++---+
      	                     ||               ||
      	                     ||               ||
      	                     ||1000baseT      ||1000baseT
      	                     ||ports 1-8      ||ports 9-16
      
      This requires a couple of interdependent changes in the DSA layer:
      
      - The dsa platform driver data needs to be extended: there is still
        only one netdevice per DSA driver instance (eth0 in the example
        above), but each of the switch chips in the tree needs its own
        mii_bus device pointer, MII management bus address, and port name
        array. (include/net/dsa.h)  The existing in-tree dsa users need
        some small changes to deal with this. (arch/arm)
      
      - The DSA and Ethertype DSA tagging modules need to be extended to
        use the DSA device ID field on receive and demultiplex the packet
        accordingly, and fill in the DSA device ID field on transmit
        according to which switch chip the packet is heading to.
        (net/dsa/tag_{dsa,edsa}.c)
      
      - The concept of "CPU port", which is the switch chip port that the
        CPU is connected to (port 10 on switch chip 0 in the example), needs
        to be extended with the concept of "upstream port", which is the
        port on the switch chip that will bring us one hop closer to the CPU
        (port 10 for both switch chips in the example above).
      
      - The dsa platform data needs to specify which ports on which switch
        chips are links to other switch chips, so that we can enable DSA
        tagging mode on them.  (For inter-switch links, we always use
        non-EtherType DSA tagging, since it has lower overhead.  The CPU
        link uses dsa or edsa tagging depending on what the 'root' switch
        chip supports.)  This is done by specifying "dsa" for the given
        port in the port array.
      
      - The dsa platform data needs to be extended with information on via
        which port to reach any given switch chip from any given switch chip.
        This info is specified via the per-switch chip data struct ->rtable[]
        array, which gives the nexthop ports for each of the other switches
        in the tree.
      
      For the example topology above, the dsa platform data would look
      something like this:
      
      	static struct dsa_chip_data sw[2] = {
      		{
      			.mii_bus	= &foo,
      			.sw_addr	= 1,
      			.port_names[0]	= "p1",
      			.port_names[1]	= "p2",
      			.port_names[2]	= "p3",
      			.port_names[3]	= "p4",
      			.port_names[4]	= "p5",
      			.port_names[5]	= "p6",
      			.port_names[6]	= "p7",
      			.port_names[7]	= "p8",
      			.port_names[9]	= "dsa",
      			.port_names[10]	= "cpu",
      			.rtable		= (s8 []){ -1, 9, },
      		}, {
      			.mii_bus	= &foo,
      			.sw_addr	= 2,
      			.port_names[0]	= "p9",
      			.port_names[1]	= "p10",
      			.port_names[2]	= "p11",
      			.port_names[3]	= "p12",
      			.port_names[4]	= "p13",
      			.port_names[5]	= "p14",
      			.port_names[6]	= "p15",
      			.port_names[7]	= "p16",
      			.port_names[10]	= "dsa",
      			.rtable		= (s8 []){ 10, -1, },
      		},
      	},
      
      	static struct dsa_platform_data pd = {
      		.netdev		= &foo,
      		.nr_switches	= 2,
      		.sw		= sw,
      	};

      dsa: add support for original DSA tagging format · cf85d08f
      Lennert Buytenhek 提交于
      Most of the DSA switches currently in the field do not support the
      Ethertype DSA tagging format that one of the previous patches added
      support for, but only the original DSA tagging format.
      
      The original DSA tagging format carries the same information as the
      Ethertype DSA tagging format, but with the difference that it does not
      have an ethertype field.  In other words, when receiving a packet that
      is tagged with an original DSA tag, there is no way of telling in
      eth_type_trans() that this packet is in fact a DSA-tagged packet.
      
      This patch adds a hook into eth_type_trans() which is only compiled in
      if support for a switch chip that doesn't support Ethertype DSA is
      selected, and which checks whether there is a DSA switch driver
      instance attached to this network device which uses the old tag format.
      If so, it sets the protocol field to ETH_P_DSA without looking at the
      packet, so that the packet ends up in the right place.

      net: Distributed Switch Architecture protocol support · 91da11f8
      Lennert Buytenhek 提交于
      Distributed Switch Architecture is a protocol for managing hardware
      switch chips.  It consists of a set of MII management registers and
      commands to configure the switch, and an ethernet header format to
      signal which of the ports of the switch a packet was received from
      or is intended to be sent to.
      
      The switches that this driver supports are typically embedded in
      access points and routers, and a typical setup with a DSA switch
      looks something like this:
      
      	+-----------+       +-----------+
      	|           | RGMII |           |
      	|           +-------+           +------ 1000baseT MDI ("WAN")
      	|           |       |  6-port   +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN1")
      	|    CPU    |       |  ethernet +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN2")
      	|           |MIImgmt|  switch   +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN3")
      	|           +-------+  w/5 PHYs +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN4")
      	|           |       |           |
      	+-----------+       +-----------+
      
      The switch driver presents each port on the switch as a separate
      network interface to Linux, polls the switch to maintain software
      link state of those ports, forwards MII management interface
      accesses to those network interfaces (e.g. as done by ethtool) to
      the switch, and exposes the switch's hardware statistics counters
      via the appropriate Linux kernel interfaces.
      
      This initial patch supports the MII management interface register
      layout of the Marvell 88E6123, 88E6161 and 88E6165 switch chips, and
      supports the "Ethertype DSA" packet tagging format.
      
      (There is no officially registered ethertype for the Ethertype DSA
      packet format, so we just grab a random one.  The ethertype to use
      is programmed into the switch, and the switch driver uses the value
      of ETH_P_EDSA for this, so this define can be changed at any time in
      the future if the one we chose is allocated to another protocol or
      if Ethertype DSA gets its own officially registered ethertype, and
      everything will continue to work.)
