93fdd47e52 bridge: Save frag_max_size between PRE_ROUTING and POST_ROUTING
As we may defragment the packet in IPv4 PRE_ROUTING and refragment
it after POST_ROUTING we should save the value of frag_max_size.

This is still very wrong as the bridge is supposed to leave the
packets intact, meaning that the right thing to do is to use the
original frag_list for fragmentation.

Unfortunately we don't currently guarantee that the frag_list is
left untouched throughout netfilter so until this changes this is
the best we can do.

There is also a spot in FORWARD where it appears that we can
forward a packet without going through fragmentation, mark it
so that we can fix it later.

5be5a2df40 bridge: Add filtering support for default_pvid
Currently when vlan filtering is turned on on the bridge, the bridge
will drop all traffic untill the user configures the filter.  This
isn't very nice for ports that don't care about vlans and just
want untagged traffic.

A concept of a default_pvid was recently introduced.  This patch
adds filtering support for default_pvid.   Now, ports that don't
care about vlans and don't define there own filter will belong
to the VLAN of the default_pvid and continue to receive untagged
traffic.

This filtering can be disabled by setting default_pvid to 0.

3df6bf45ec bridge: Simplify pvid checks.
Currently, if the pvid is not set, we return an illegal vlan value
even though the pvid value is set to 0.  Since pvid of 0 is currently
invalid, just return 0 instead.  This makes the current and future
checks simpler.

====================
pull request: netfilter/ipvs updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next,
most relevantly they are:

1) Four patches to make the new nf_tables masquerading support
   independent of the x_tables infrastructure. This also resolves a
   compilation breakage if the masquerade target is disabled but the
   nf_tables masq expression is enabled.

2) ipset updates via Jozsef Kadlecsik. This includes the addition of the
   skbinfo extension that allows you to store packet metainformation in the
   elements. This can be used to fetch and restore this to the packets through
   the iptables SET target, patches from Anton Danilov.

3) Add the hash:mac set type to ipset, from Jozsef Kadlecsick.

4) Add simple weighted fail-over scheduler via Simon Horman. This provides
   a fail-over IPVS scheduler (unlike existing load balancing schedulers).
   Connections are directed to the appropriate server based solely on
   highest weight value and server availability, patch from Kenny Mathis.

5) Support IPv6 real servers in IPv4 virtual-services and vice versa.
   Simon Horman informs that the motivation for this is to allow more
   flexibility in the choice of IP version offered by both virtual-servers
   and real-servers as they no longer need to match: An IPv4 connection
   from an end-user may be forwarded to a real-server using IPv6 and
   vice versa. No ip_vs_sync support yet though. Patches from Alex Gartrell
   and Julian Anastasov.

6) Add global generation ID to the nf_tables ruleset. When dumping from
   several different object lists, we need a way to identify that an update
   has ocurred so userspace knows that it needs to refresh its lists. This
   also includes a new command to obtain the 32-bits generation ID. The
   less significant 16-bits of this ID is also exposed through res_id field
   in the nfnetlink header to quickly detect the interference and retry when
   there is no risk of ID wraparound.

7) Move br_netfilter out of the bridge core. The br_netfilter code is
   built in the bridge core by default. This causes problems of different
   kind to people that don't want this: Jesper reported performance drop due
   to the inconditional hook registration and I remember to have read complains
   on netdev from people regarding the unexpected behaviour of our bridging
   stack when br_netfilter is enabled (fragmentation handling, layer 3 and
   upper inspection). People that still need this should easily undo the
   damage by modprobing the new br_netfilter module.

8) Dump the set policy nf_tables that allows set parameterization. So
   userspace can keep user-defined preferences when saving the ruleset.
   From Arturo Borrero.

9) Use __seq_open_private() helper function to reduce boiler plate code
   in x_tables, From Rob Jones.

10) Safer default behaviour in case that you forget to load the protocol
   tracker. Daniel Borkmann and Florian Westphal detected that if your
   ruleset is stateful, you allow traffic to at least one single SCTP port
   and the SCTP protocol tracker is not loaded, then any SCTP traffic may
   be pass through unfiltered. After this patch, the connection tracking
   classifies SCTP/DCCP/UDPlite/GRE packets as invalid if your kernel has
   been compiled with support for these modules.
====================

Trivially resolved conflict in include/linux/skbuff.h, Eric moved some
netfilter skbuff members around, and the netfilter tree adjusted the
ifdef guards for the bridging info pointer.

34666d467c netfilter: bridge: move br_netfilter out of the core
Jesper reported that br_netfilter always registers the hooks since
this is part of the bridge core. This harms performance for people that
don't need this.

This patch modularizes br_netfilter so it can be rmmod'ed, thus,
the hooks can be unregistered. I think the bridge netfilter should have
been a separated module since the beginning, Patrick agreed on that.

Note that this is breaking compatibility for users that expect that
bridge netfilter is going to be available after explicitly 'modprobe
bridge' or via automatic load through brctl.

However, the damage can be easily undone by modprobing br_netfilter.
The bridge core also spots a message to provide a clue to people that
didn't notice that this has been deprecated.

On top of that, the plan is that nftables will not rely on this software
layer, but integrate the connection tracking into the bridge layer to
enable stateful filtering and NAT, which is was bridge netfilter users
seem to require.

This patch still keeps the fake_dst_ops in the bridge core, since this
is required by when the bridge port is initialized. So we can safely
modprobe/rmmod br_netfilter anytime.

20adfa1a81 bridge: Check if vlan filtering is enabled only once.
The bridge code checks if vlan filtering is enabled on both
ingress and egress.   When the state flip happens, it
is possible for the bridge to currently be forwarding packets
and forwarding behavior becomes non-deterministic.  Bridge
may drop packets on some interfaces, but not others.

This patch solves this by caching the filtered state of the
packet into skb_cb on ingress.  The skb_cb is guaranteed to
not be over-written between the time packet entres bridge
forwarding path and the time it leaves it.  On egress, we
can then check the cached state to see if we need to
apply filtering information.

204177f3f3 bridge: Support 802.1ad vlan filtering
This enables us to change the vlan protocol for vlan filtering.
We come to be able to filter frames on the basis of 802.1ad vlan tags
through a bridge.

This also changes br->group_addr if it has not been set by user.
This is needed for an 802.1ad bridge.
(See IEEE 802.1Q-2011 8.13.5.)

Furthermore, this sets br->group_fwd_mask_required so that an 802.1ad
bridge can forward the Nearest Customer Bridge group addresses except
for br->group_addr, which should be passed to higher layer.

To change the vlan protocol, write a protocol in sysfs:
# echo 0x88a8 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/vlan_protocol

dc4eb53a99 bridge: adhere to querier election mechanism specified by RFCs
MLDv1 (RFC2710 section 6), MLDv2 (RFC3810 section 7.6.2), IGMPv2
(RFC2236 section 3) and IGMPv3 (RFC3376 section 6.6.2) specify that the
querier with lowest source address shall become the selected
querier.

So far the bridge stopped its querier as soon as it heard another
querier regardless of its source address. This results in the "wrong"
querier potentially becoming the active querier or a potential,
unnecessary querying delay.

With this patch the bridge memorizes the source address of the currently
selected querier and ignores queries from queriers with a higher source
address than the currently selected one. This slight optimization is
supposed to make it more RFC compliant (but is rather uncritical and
therefore probably not necessary to be queued for stable kernels).

2796d0c648 bridge: Automatically manage port promiscuous mode.
There exist configurations where the administrator or another management
entity has the foreknowledge of all the mac addresses of end systems
that are being bridged together.

In these environments, the administrator can statically configure known
addresses in the bridge FDB and disable flooding and learning on ports.
This makes it possible to turn off promiscuous mode on the interfaces
connected to the bridge.

Here is why disabling flooding and learning allows us to control
promiscuity:
 Consider port X.  All traffic coming into this port from outside the
bridge (ingress) will be either forwarded through other ports of the
bridge (egress) or dropped.  Forwarding (egress) is defined by FDB
entries and by flooding in the event that no FDB entry exists.
In the event that flooding is disabled, only FDB entries define
the egress.  Once learning is disabled, only static FDB entries
provided by a management entity define the egress.  If we provide
information from these static FDBs to the ingress port X, then we'll
be able to accept all traffic that can be successfully forwarded and
drop all the other traffic sooner without spending CPU cycles to
process it.
 Another way to define the above is as following equations:
    ingress = egress + drop
 expanding egress
    ingress = static FDB + learned FDB + flooding + drop
 disabling flooding and learning we a left with
    ingress = static FDB + drop

By adding addresses from the static FDB entries to the MAC address
filter of an ingress port X, we fully define what the bridge can
process without dropping and can thus turn off promiscuous mode,
thus dropping packets sooner.

There have been suggestions that we may want to allow learning
and update the filters with learned addresses as well.  This
would require mac-level authentication similar to 802.1x to
prevent attacks against the hw filters as they are limited
resource.

Additionally, if the user places the bridge device in promiscuous mode,
all ports are placed in promiscuous mode regardless of the changes
to flooding and learning.

Since the above functionality depends on full static configuration,
we have also require that vlan filtering be enabled to take
advantage of this.  The reason is that the bridge has to be
able to receive and process VLAN-tagged frames and the there
are only 2 ways to accomplish this right now: promiscuous mode
or vlan filtering.

e028e4b8dc bridge: Keep track of ports capable of automatic discovery.
By default, ports on the bridge are capable of automatic
discovery of nodes located behind the port.  This is accomplished
via flooding of unknown traffic (BR_FLOOD) and learning the
mac addresses from these packets (BR_LEARNING).
If the above functionality is disabled by turning off these
flags, the port requires static configuration in the form
of static FDB entries to function properly.

This patch adds functionality to keep track of all ports
capable of automatic discovery.  This will later be used
to control promiscuity settings.

424bb9c97c bridge: Properly check if local fdb entry can be deleted when deleting vlan
Vlan codes unconditionally delete local fdb entries.
We should consider the possibility that other ports have the same
address and vlan.

Example of problematic case:

  ip link set eth1 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
  brctl addif br0 eth0
  brctl addif br0 eth1 # br0 will have mac address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
  bridge vlan add dev eth0 vid 10
  bridge vlan add dev eth1 vid 10
  bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 10 self
We will have fdb entry such that f->dst == eth0, f->vlan_id == 10 and
f->addr == 12:34:56:78:90:ab at this time.
Next, delete eth0 vlan 10.
  bridge vlan del dev eth0 vid 10
In this case, we still need the entry for br0, but it will be deleted.

Note that br0 needs the entry even though its mac address is not set
manually. To delete the entry with proper condition checking,
fdb_delete_local() is suitable to use.

2b292fb4a5 bridge: Fix the way to check if a local fdb entry can be deleted
We should take into account the followings when deleting a local fdb
entry.

- nbp_vlan_find() can be used only when vid != 0 to check if an entry is
  deletable, because a fdb entry with vid 0 can exist at any time while
  nbp_vlan_find() always return false with vid 0.

  Example of problematic case:
    ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
    ip link set eth1 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
    brctl addif br0 eth0
    brctl addif br0 eth1
    ip link set eth0 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
  Then, the fdb entry 12:34:56:78:90:ab will be deleted even though the
  bridge port eth1 still has that address.

- The port to which the bridge device is attached might needs a local entry
  if its mac address is set manually.

  Then, the fdb still must have the entry 12:34:56:78:90:ab, but it will be
  deleted.

We can use br->dev->addr_assign_type to check if the address is manually
set or not, but I propose another approach.

Since we delete and insert local entries whenever changing mac address
of the bridge device, we can change dst of the entry to NULL regardless of
addr_assign_type when deleting an entry associated with a certain port,
and if it is found to be unnecessary later, then delete it.
That is, if changing mac address of a port, the entry might be changed
to its dst being NULL first, but is eventually deleted when recalculating
and changing bridge id.

This approach is especially useful when we want to share the code with
deleting vlan in which the bridge device might want such an entry regardless
of addr_assign_type, and makes things easy because we don't have to consider
if mac address of the bridge device will be changed or not at the time we
delete a local entry of a port, which means fdb code will not be bothered
even if the bridge id calculating logic is changed in the future.

Also, this change reduces inconsistent state, where frames whose dst is the
mac address of the bridge, can't reach the bridge because of premature fdb
entry deletion. This change reduces the possibility that the bridge device
replies unreachable mac address to arp requests, which could occur during
the short window between calling del_nbp() and br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id()
in br_del_if(). This will effective after br_fdb_delete_by_port() starts to
use the same code by following patch.

a5642ab474 bridge: Fix the way to find old local fdb entries in br_fdb_changeaddr
br_fdb_changeaddr() assumes that there is at most one local entry per port
per vlan. It used to be true, but since commit 36fd2b63e3 ("bridge: allow
creating/deleting fdb entries via netlink"), it has not been so.
Therefore, the function might fail to search a correct previous address
to be deleted and delete an arbitrary local entry if user has added local
entries manually.

Example of problematic case:
  ip link set eth0 address ee:ff:12:34:56:78
  brctl addif br0 eth0
  bridge fdb add 12:34:56:78:90:ab dev eth0 master
  ip link set eth0 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
Then, the address 12:34:56:78:90:ab might be deleted instead of
ee:ff:12:34:56:78, the original mac address of eth0.

Address this issue by introducing a new flag, added_by_user, to struct
net_bridge_fdb_entry.

Note that br_fdb_delete_by_port() has to set added_by_user to 0 in cases
like:
  ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
  ip link set eth1 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
  brctl addif br0 eth0
  bridge fdb add aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff dev eth0 master
  brctl addif br0 eth1
  brctl delif br0 eth0
In this case, kernel should delete the user-added entry aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff,
but it also should have been added by "brctl addif br0 eth1" originally,
so we don't delete it and treat it a new kernel-created entry.

859828c0ea br: fix use of ->rx_handler_data in code executed on non-rx_handler path
br_stp_rcv() is reached by non-rx_handler path. That means there is no
guarantee that dev is bridge port and therefore simple NULL check of
->rx_handler_data is not enough. There is need to check if dev is really
bridge port and since only rcu read lock is held here, do it by checking
->rx_handler pointer.

Note that synchronize_net() in netdev_rx_handler_unregister() ensures
this approach as valid.

Introduced originally by:

454594f3b9 Revert "bridge: only expire the mdb entry when query is received"
While this commit was a good attempt to fix issues occuring when no
multicast querier is present, this commit still has two more issues:

1) There are cases where mdb entries do not expire even if there is a
querier present. The bridge will unnecessarily continue flooding
multicast packets on the according ports.

2) Never removing an mdb entry could be exploited for a Denial of
Service by an attacker on the local link, slowly, but steadily eating up
all memory.

Actually, this commit became obsolete with
"bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier" (b00589af3b)
which included fixes for a few more cases.

Therefore reverting the following commits (the commit stated in the

d1c6c708c4 bridge: Fix the way the PVID is referenced
We are using the VLAN_TAG_PRESENT bit to detect whether the PVID is
set or not at br_get_pvid(), while we don't care about the bit in
adding/deleting the PVID, which makes it impossible to forward any
incomming untagged frame with vlan_filtering enabled.

Since vid 0 cannot be used for the PVID, we can use vid 0 to indicate
that the PVID is not set, which is slightly more efficient than using
the VLAN_TAG_PRESENT.

Fix the problem by getting rid of using the VLAN_TAG_PRESENT.

716ec052d2 bridge: fix NULL pointer deref of br_port_get_rcu
The NULL deref happens when br_handle_frame is called between these
2 lines of del_nbp:
	dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_BRIDGE_PORT;
	/* --> br_handle_frame is called at this time */
	netdev_rx_handler_unregister(dev);

In br_handle_frame the return of br_port_get_rcu(dev) is dereferenced
without check but br_port_get_rcu(dev) returns NULL if:
	!(dev->priv_flags & IFF_BRIDGE_PORT)

Eric Dumazet pointed out the testing of IFF_BRIDGE_PORT is not necessary
here since we're in rcu_read_lock and we have synchronize_net() in
netdev_rx_handler_unregister. So remove the testing of IFF_BRIDGE_PORT
and by the previous patch, make sure br_port_get_rcu is called in

be4f154d5e bridge: Clamp forward_delay when enabling STP
At some point limits were added to forward_delay.  However, the
limits are only enforced when STP is enabled.  This created a
scenario where you could have a value outside the allowed range
while STP is disabled, which then stuck around even after STP
is enabled.

This patch fixes this by clamping the value when we enable STP.

I had to move the locking around a bit to ensure that there is
no window where someone could insert a value outside the range
while we're in the middle of enabling STP.

cc0fdd8028 bridge: separate querier and query timer into IGMP/IPv4 and MLD/IPv6 ones
Currently we would still potentially suffer multicast packet loss if there
is just either an IGMP or an MLD querier: For the former case, we would
possibly drop IPv6 multicast packets, for the latter IPv4 ones. This is
because we are currently assuming that if either an IGMP or MLD querier
is present that the other one is present, too.

This patch makes the behaviour and fix added in
"bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier" (b00589af3b)
to also work if there is either just an IGMP or an MLD querier on the
link: It refines the deactivation of the snooping to be protocol
specific by using separate timers for the snooped IGMP and MLD queries
as well as separate timers for our internal IGMP and MLD queriers.

b00589af3b bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier
If there is no querier on a link then we won't get periodic reports and
therefore won't be able to learn about multicast listeners behind ports,
potentially leading to lost multicast packets, especially for multicast
listeners that joined before the creation of the bridge.

These lost multicast packets can appear since c5c2326059
("bridge: Add multicast_querier toggle and disable queries by default")
in particular.

With this patch we are flooding multicast packets if our querier is
disabled and if we didn't detect any other querier.

A grace period of the Maximum Response Delay of the querier is added to
give multicast responses enough time to arrive and to be learned from
before disabling the flooding behaviour again.

9f00b2e7cf bridge: only expire the mdb entry when query is received
Currently we arm the expire timer when the mdb entry is added,
however, this causes problem when there is no querier sent

So we should only arm the timer when a corresponding query is

And he also mentioned "if there is no querier then group
subscriptions shouldn't expire. There has to be at least one querier
in the network for this thing to work.  Otherwise it just degenerates
into a non-snooping switch, which is OK."

1c8ad5bfa2 bridge: use the bridge IP addr as source addr for querier
Quote from Adam:
"If it is believed that the use of 0.0.0.0
as the IP address is what is causing strange behaviour on other devices
then is there a good reason that a bridge rather than a router shouldn't
be the active querier? If not then using the bridge IP address and
having the querier enabled by default may be a reasonable solution
(provided that our querier obeys the election rules and shuts up if it
sees a query from a lower IP address that isn't 0.0.0.0). Just because a
device is the elected querier for IGMP doesn't appear to mean it is
required to perform any other routing functions."

And introduce a new troggle for it, as suggested by Herbert.

7885198861 bridge: Implement vlan ingress/egress policy with PVID.
At ingress, any untagged traffic is assigned to the PVID.
Any tagged traffic is filtered according to membership bitmap.

At egress, if the vlan matches the PVID, the frame is sent
untagged.  Otherwise the frame is sent tagged.

Why would you want to do this?
If using STP on a bridge and the downstream bridges are not fully

Why not just use netfilter?

2469ffd723 net: set and query VEB/VEPA bridge mode via PF_BRIDGE
Hardware switches may support enabling and disabling the
loopback switch which puts the device in a VEPA mode defined
in the IEEE 802.1Qbg specification. In this mode frames are
not switched in the hardware but sent directly to the switch.
SR-IOV capable NICs will likely support this mode I am
aware of at least two such devices. Also I am told (but don't
have any of this hardware available) that there are devices
that only support VEPA modes. In these cases it is important
at a minimum to be able to query these attributes.

This patch adds an additional IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE attribute that can be
set and dumped via the PF_BRIDGE:{SET|GET}LINK operations. Also
anticipating bridge attributes that may be common for both embedded
bridges and software bridges this adds a flags attribute
IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS currently used to determine if the command or event
is being generated to/from an embedded bridge or software bridge.
Finally, the event generation is pulled out of the bridge module and
into rtnetlink proper.

For example using the macvlan driver in VEPA mode on top of
an embedded switch requires putting the embedded switch into
a VEPA mode to get the expected results.

	--------  --------
        | VEPA |  | VEPA |       <-- macvlan vepa edge relays
        --------  --------
           |        |
           |        |
        ------------------
        |      VEPA      |       <-- embedded switch in NIC
        ------------------
                |
                |
        -------------------
        | external switch |      <-- shiny new physical
	-------------------          switch with VEPA support

A packet sent from the macvlan VEPA at the top could be
loopbacked on the embedded switch and never seen by the
external switch. So in order for this to work the embedded
switch needs to be set in the VEPA state via the above
described commands.

By making these attributes nested in IFLA_AF_SPEC we allow
future extensions to be made as needed.

b3343a2a2c net, ixgbe: handle link local multicast addresses in SR-IOV mode
In SR-IOV mode the PF driver acts as the uplink port and is
used to send control packets e.g. lldpad, stp, etc.

   eth0.1     eth0.2     eth0
   VF         VF         PF
   |          |          |   <-- stand-in for uplink
   |          |          |
  --------------------------
  |  Embedded Switch       |
  --------------------------
              |
             MAC   <-- uplink

But the embedded switch is setup to forward multicast addresses
to all interfaces both VFs and PF and onto the physical link.
This results in reserved MAC addresses used by control protocols
to be forwarded over the switch onto the VF.

In the LLDP case the PF sends an LLDPDU and it is currently
being forwarded to all the VFs who then see the PF as a peer.
This is incorrect.

This patch adds the multicast addresses to the RAR table in the
hardware to prevent this behavior.

77162022ab net: add generic PF_BRIDGE:RTM_ FDB hooks
This adds two new flags NTF_MASTER and NTF_SELF that can
now be used to specify where PF_BRIDGE netlink commands should
be sent. NTF_MASTER sends the commands to the 'dev->master'
device for parsing. Typically this will be the linux net/bridge,
or open-vswitch devices. Also without any flags set the command
will be handled by the master device as well so that current user
space tools continue to work as expected.

The NTF_SELF flag will push the PF_BRIDGE commands to the
device. In the basic example below the commands are then parsed
and programmed in the embedded bridge.

Note if both NTF_SELF and NTF_MASTER bits are set then the
command will be sent to both 'dev->master' and 'dev' this allows
user space to easily keep the embedded bridge and software bridge
in sync.

There is a slight complication in the case with both flags set
when an error occurs. To resolve this the rtnl handler clears
the NTF_ flag in the netlink ack to indicate which sets completed
successfully. The add/del handlers will abort as soon as any
error occurs.

To support this new net device ops were added to call into
the device and the existing bridging code was refactored
to use these. There should be no required changes in user space
to support the current bridge behavior.

A basic setup with a SR-IOV enabled NIC looks like this,

          veth0  veth2
            |      |
          ------------
          |  bridge0 |   <---- software bridging
          ------------
               /
               /
  ethx.y      ethx
    VF         PF
     \         \          <---- propagate FDB entries to HW
     \         \
  --------------------
  |  Embedded Bridge |    <---- hardware offloaded switching
  --------------------

In this case the embedded bridge must be managed to allow 'veth0'
to communicate with 'ethx.y' correctly. At present drivers managing
the embedded bridge either send frames onto the network which
then get dropped by the switch OR the embedded bridge will flood
these frames. With this patch we have a mechanism to manage the
embedded bridge correctly from user space. This example is specific
to SR-IOV but replacing the VF with another PF or dropping this
into the DSA framework generates similar management issues.

Examples session using the 'br'[1] tool to add, dump and then
delete a mac address with a new "embedded" option and enabled
ixgbe driver:

# br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 dev eth3
# br fdb
port    mac addr                flags
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:58       static
veth0   9a:5f:81:f7:f6:ec       local
eth3    00:1b:21:55:23:59       local
eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       static
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:57       static
#br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3
#br fdb
port    mac addr                flags
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:58       static
veth0   9a:5f:81:f7:f6:ec       local
eth3    00:1b:21:55:23:59       local
eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       static
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:57       static
eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       local embedded
#br fdb del 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3

I added a couple lines to 'br' to set the flags correctly is all. It
is my opinion that the merit of this patch is now embedded and SW
bridges can both be modeled correctly in user space using very nearly
the same message passing.

c5c2326059 bridge: Add multicast_querier toggle and disable queries by default
Sending general queries was implemented as an optimisation to speed
up convergence on start-up.  In order to prevent interference with
multicast routers a zero source address has to be used.

Unfortunately these packets appear to cause some multicast-aware
switches to misbehave, e.g., by disrupting multicast packets to us.

Since the multicast snooping feature still functions without sending
our own queries, this patch will change the default to not send
queries.

For those that need queries in order to speed up convergence on start-up,
a toggle is provided to restore the previous behaviour.

996304bbea bridge: Do not send queries on multicast group leaves
As it stands the bridge IGMP snooping system will respond to
group leave messages with queries for remaining membership.
This is both unnecessary and undesirable.  First of all any
multicast routers present should be doing this rather than us.
What's more the queries that we send may end up upsetting other
multicast snooping swithces in the system that are buggy.

In fact, we can simply remove the code that send these queries
because the existing membership expiry mechanism doesn't rely
on them anyway.

So this patch simply removes all code associated with group
queries in response to group leave messages.

4359881338 bridge: add local MAC address to forwarding table (v2)
If user has configured a MAC address that is not one of the existing
ports of the bridge, then we need to add a special entry in the forwarding
table. This forwarding table entry has no outgoing port so it has to be
treated a little differently. The special entry is reported by the netlink
interface with ifindex of bridge, but ignored by the old interface since there
is no usable way to put it in the ABI.

1ce5cce895 bridge: fix hang on removal of bridge via netlink
Need to cleanup bridge device timers and ports when being bridge
device is being removed via netlink.

This fixes the problem of observed when doing:
 ip link add br0 type bridge
 ip link set dev eth1 master br0
 ip link set br0 up
 ip link del br0

which would cause br0 to hang in unregister_netdev because
of leftover reference count.

515853ccec bridge: allow forwarding some link local frames
This is based on an earlier patch by Nick Carter with comments
by David Lamparter but with some refinements. Thanks for their patience
this is a confusing area with overlap of standards, user requirements,
and compatibility with earlier releases.

It adds a new sysfs attribute
   /sys/class/net/brX/bridge/group_fwd_mask
that controls forwarding of frames with address of: 01-80-C2-00-00-0X
The default setting has no forwarding to retain compatibility.

One change from earlier releases is that forwarding of group
addresses is not dependent on STP being enabled or disabled. This
choice was made based on interpretation of tie 802.1 standards.
I expect complaints will arise because of this, but better to follow
the standard than continue acting incorrectly by default.

The filtering mask is writeable, but only values that don't forward
known control frames are allowed. It intentionally blocks attempts
to filter control protocols. For example: writing a 8 allows
forwarding 802.1X PAE addresses which is the most common request.

0c03150e7e bridge: send proper message_age in config BPDU
A bridge topology with three systems:

      +------+  +------+
      | A(2) |--| B(1) |
      +------+  +------+
           \    /
          +------+
          | C(3) |
          +------+

What is supposed to happen:
 * bridge with the lowest ID is elected root (for example: B)
 * C detects that A->C is higher cost path and puts in blocking state

What happens. Bridge with lowest id (B) is elected correctly as
root and things start out fine initially. But then config BPDU
doesn't get transmitted from A -> C. Because of that
the link from A-C is transistioned to the forwarding state.

The root cause of this is that the configuration messages
is generated with bogus message age, and dropped before
sending.

In the standardmessage_age is supposed to be:
  the time since the generation of the Configuration BPDU by
  the Root that instigated the generation of this Configuration BPDU.

Reimplement this by recording the timestamp (age + jiffies) when
recording config information. The old code incorrectly used the time
elapsed on the ageing timer which was incorrect.
