      bridge: Eliminate unnecessary forward delay · ef647f13
      Stephen Hemminger 提交于
      From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com>
      
      Based upon original patch by Herbert Xu, which contained
      the following problem description:
      
      --------------------
      When the forward delay is set to zero, we still delay the setting
      of the forwarding state by one or possibly two timers depending
      on whether STP is enabled.  This could either turn out to be
      instantaneous, or horribly slow depending on the load of the
      machine.
      
      As there is nothing preventing us from enabling forwarding straight
      away, this patch eliminates this potential delay by executing the
      code directly if the forward delay is zero.
      
      The effect of this problem is that immediately after the carrier
      comes on a port, the bridge will drop all packets received from
      that port until it enters forwarding mode, thus causing unnecessary
      packet loss.
      
      Note that this patch doesn't fully remove the delay due to the
      link watcher.  We should also check the carrier state when we
      are about to drop an incoming packet because the port is disabled.
      But that's for another patch.
      --------------------
      
      This version of the fix takes a different approach, in that
      it just does the state change directly.
