Subject: nfp: flower: prevent re-adding mac index for bonded port
From: Daniel de Villiers <daniel.devilliers@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 1a1c13303ff6d64e6f718dc8aa614e580ca8d9b4 upstream.
When physical ports are reset (either through link failure or manually
toggled down and up again) that are slaved to a Linux bond with a tunnel
endpoint IP address on the bond device, not all tunnel packets arriving
on the bond port are decapped as expected.
The bond dev assigns the same MAC address to itself and each of its
slaves. When toggling a slave device, the same MAC address is therefore
offloaded to the NFP multiple times with different indexes.
The issue only occurs when re-adding the shared mac. The
nfp_tunnel_add_shared_mac() function has a conditional check early on
that checks if a mac entry already exists and if that mac entry is
global: (entry && nfp_tunnel_is_mac_idx_global(entry->index)). In the
case of a bonded device (For example br-ex), the mac index is obtained,
and no new index is assigned.
We therefore modify the conditional in nfp_tunnel_add_shared_mac() to
check if the port belongs to the LAG along with the existing checks to
prevent a new global mac index from being re-assigned to the slave port.
Fixes: 20cce8865098 ("nfp: flower: enable MAC address sharing for offloadable devs")
