In dual_mac mode CPSW driver uses vid1 and vid2 by default to implement
dual mac mode wich are used to configure pvids for each external ports.
But, historicaly, it also adds vid0 to ALE table and sets "untag" bits for both
ext. ports. As result, it's imposible to use priority tagged packets in
dual mac mode.
Hence, drop vid0 configuration in dual mac mode as it's not required for dual
mac mode functionality and, this way, make it possible to use priority
tagged packet in dual mac mode.
So, now it's enabled to be added via regular ndo.
I have similar change in mind, but was going to send it after
mcast/ucast, and - enabling same vlans patch...
2 things stopped me to add this:
1) Moving it to be enabled via regular call is Ok, but in dual mac mode
it causes overlaps, at least while vid deletion. So decided to wait till
same vlans series is applied.
TI driver documentation mentions this restriction
"While adding VLAN id to the eth interfaces,
same VLAN id should not be added in both interfaces which will lead to VLAN
forwarding and act as switch"
It's not accurate now.
This sw bug "acting like a switch" was fixed indirectly in LKML ).
And at least for upstream version, not TISDK, desc should be updated,
but better do this when it fixed completely and merged with TISDK.
I know about this "written" restriction
(for tiSDK, and it's not TRM after all ...),
it can be avoided and it's partly avoided now ...
I'd like to clarify point about supporting same VLANs in dual_mac mode,
to avoid future misunderstanding, overall: it's *not* supported as
adding same VLAN to both netdevices will cause unknown unicast packets
leaking between interfaces and it can't be avoided - hw limitation.
Simple test shows no issues with ucast leaking.
But for current buggy ucast vlan implementation it's not possible to verify,
not sure but probably leaking in your case cuased by hidden toggling of
interface to promisc while added ucast to vlans or other reason or so.
Anyway I just decided to check specifically ucasts
(macst as you know are not normal now).
For verification you need to apply ucast fix (including vlans) first:
https://git.linaro.org/people/ivan.khoronzhuk/tsn_kernel.git/log/?h=vlan_addr_flt_fix
This is generic fix (not sure it will be approved, need try RFC) but implement
the same as local fix for vlan ucasts:
https://git.linaro.org/people/ivan.khoronzhuk/tsn_kernel.git/log/?h=ucast_vlan_fix
Any of those are correct. I've used generic one.
Applied the following scheme:
+--------------------------+
| host 74:DA:EA:47:7D:9C |
+--------------------------+
+---------------------+
| am572 evm |
| eth0 eth1 |
+----------+----------+
| eth0.400 | eth1.400 |
+----------+----------+
^ |
| | +-----------+
+-----------------+ | | | PC |
| BBB eth0.400 |--------+ +->| Wireshark |
+-----------------+ +-----------+
1) Configure vlans on am572x evm
ip link add link eth0 name eth0.400 type vlan id 400
ip link add link eth1 name eth1.400 type vlan id 400
2) On BBB side:
# ip link add link eth0 name eth0.400 type vlan id 400
Send ucast vlan traffic to the am572 evm, vlan ucast address is unreq on am572.
# ./plget -i eth0.400 -t ptpl2 -m tx-lat -n 160 -s 10 -a 74:DA:EA:47:7D:66
# ./plget -i eth0.400 -t ptpl2 -m tx-lat -n 160 -s 10 -a 18:03:73:66:87:42
3) Observe silence on PC wireshark.
Thus, no see issues with this.
PS: I'm sure in plget tool, you can use your own.
Regarding vid0 - current default configuration of CPSW considers
vid0/priority tagged packets as - untagged and assigns pvid to any
such ingress packet inside switch. Hence, P0 (Linux host) egress port
never modifies packet contents - this behavior is not visible to Linux.
(EN_VID0_MODE=0, P1_PASS_PRI_TAGGED=0)
I can't verify everything with vlan0 at this moment (not time), just
shared my thoughts adding a notice it has same possible overlap issues
(or part of them) after this patch as regular vlans have.
Also, for notice, while you add any of the vlans to any of
the ports, vlan0 is added to both of them.....restricted it or not.
Thanks to last changes in the driver it's not "acting like a switch"
The patch in question enables this in ndo, not me.
#ip link add link eth0 name eth0.400 type vlan id 400
[ 326.538989] 8021q: 802.1Q VLAN Support v1.8
[ 326.543217] 8021q: adding VLAN 0 to HW filter on device eth0
[ 326.554645] 8021q: adding VLAN 0 to HW filter on device eth1
[ 326.572236] net eth0: Adding vlanid 400 to vlan filter
I just propose to extend it later, when it's correct to do.
But if no harm (basically no harm, only if someone decides
to add vlan0 to both ports and then delete on one of them)
, at least you should take this into account.
