Subject: [PATCH iwl-next v2 5/8] ice: update mac,vlan rules when toggling between VEB and VEPA
When changing into VEPA mode MAC rules are modified to forward all traffic
to the wire instead of allowing some packets to go into the loopback.
MAC,VLAN rules may and will also be used to forward loopback traffic
in VEB, so when we switch to VEPA, we want them to behave similarly to
MAC-only rules.
ice_vsi_update_bridge_mode() will now attempt a rollback of switch
filters in case an update fails. If the rollback also fails, we will
now return the rollback error instead of the initial error.
Signed-off-by: Jakub Slepecki <jakub.slepecki@...el.com>
---
Testing hints:
MAC,VLAN rules are created only if entire series is applied.
The easiest way to test that rules were adjusted is to run traffic
and observe what packets are sent to LAN. VEPA is expected to behave
same as before the series. VEB is expected to (a) behave like VEPA
if loopback traffic would cross VLANs, or (b) behave as before.
Traffic from/to external hosts is expected to remain unchanged.
Dropping reviewed-by Michał due to changes.
Changes in v2:
- Close open parenthesis in ice_vsi_update_bridge_mode() description.
- Explain returns in ice_vsi_update_bridge_mode().
