Hmm, I don't think this is going to work with the assisted_learning_on_cpu_port
feature ("if (switchdev_fdb_is_dynamically_learned(fdb_info))"). The reason being
that a "dynamically learned" FDB entry (defined as this):
static inline bool
switchdev_fdb_is_dynamically_learned(const struct switchdev_notifier_fdb_info *fdb_info)
{
return !fdb_info->added_by_user && !fdb_info->is_local;
}
is also dynamic in the DSA_FDB_FLAG_DYNAMIC sense. But we install a
static FDB entry for it on the CPU port.
And in your follow-up patch 3/5, you make all drivers except mv88e6xxx
ignore all DSA_FDB_FLAG_DYNAMIC entries (including the ones snooped from
address learning on software interfaces). So this breaks those drivers
which don't implement DSA_FDB_FLAG_DYNAMIC but do set ds->assisted_learning_on_cpu_port
to true.
I think you also want to look at the added_by_user flag to disambiguate
between a dynamic FDB entry added from learning (which it's ok to
offload as static, because software ageing will remove it) and one added
by the user.
