Vladimir Oltean a372d66af4 net: dsa: sja1105: always enable the send_meta options
incl_srcpt has the limitation, mentioned in commit b4638af888 ("net:
dsa: sja1105: always enable the INCL_SRCPT option"), that frames with a
MAC DA of 01:80:c2:xx:yy:zz will be received as 01:80:c2:00:00:zz unless
PTP RX timestamping is enabled.

The incl_srcpt option was initially unconditionally enabled, then that
changed with commit 42824463d3 ("net: dsa: sja1105: Limit use of
incl_srcpt to bridge+vlan mode"), then again with b4638af888 ("net:
dsa: sja1105: always enable the INCL_SRCPT option"). Bottom line is that
it now needs to be always enabled, otherwise the driver does not have a
reliable source of information regarding source_port and switch_id for
link-local traffic (tag_8021q VLANs may be imprecise since now they
identify an entire bridging domain when ports are not standalone).

If we accept that PTP RX timestamping (and therefore, meta frame
generation) is always enabled in hardware, then that limitation could be
avoided and packets with any MAC DA can be properly received, because
meta frames do contain the original bytes from the MAC DA of their
associated link-local packet.

This change enables meta frame generation unconditionally, which also
has the nice side effects of simplifying the switch control path
(a switch reset is no longer required on hwtstamping settings change)
and the tagger data path (it no longer needs to be informed whether to
expect meta frames or not - it always does).

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
