This is already common knowledge by now, but the sja1105 does not have
hardware support for DSA tagging for data plane packets, and tag_8021q
sets up a unique pvid per port, transmitted as VLAN-tagged towards the
CPU, for the source port to be decoded nonetheless.
When the port is part of a VLAN-aware bridge, the pvid committed to
hardware is taken from the bridge and not from tag_8021q, so we need to
work with that the best we can.
Configure the switches to send all packets to the CPU as VLAN-tagged
(even ones that were originally untagged on the wire) and make use of
dsa_untag_bridge_pvid() to get rid of it before we send those packets up
the network stack.
With the classified VLAN used by hardware known to the tagger, we first
peek at the VID in an attempt to figure out if the packet was received
from a VLAN-unaware port (standalone or under a VLAN-unaware bridge),
case in which we can continue to call dsa_8021q_rcv(). If that is not
the case, the packet probably came from a VLAN-aware bridge. So we call
the DSA helper that finds for us a "designated bridge port" - one that
is a member of the VLAN ID from the packet, and is in the proper STP
state - basically these are all checks performed by br_handle_frame() in
the software RX data path.
The bridge will accept the packet as valid even if the source port was
maybe wrong. So it will maybe learn the MAC SA of the packet on the
wrong port, and its software FDB will be out of sync with the hardware
FDB. So replies towards this same MAC DA will not work, because the
bridge will send towards a different netdev.
This is where the bridge data plane offload ("imprecise TX") added by
the next patch comes in handy. The software FDB is wrong, true, but the
hardware FDB isn't, and by offloading the bridge forwarding plane we
have a chance to right a wrong, and have the hardware look up the FDB
for us for the reply packet. So it all cancels out.
