Hi all,
This patch series allows using the bridge master interface to configure
an Ethernet switch port's CPU/management port with different VLAN attributes than
those of the bridge downstream ports/members.
Jiri, Ido, Andrew, Vivien, please review the impact on mlxsw and mv88e6xxx, I
tested this with b53 and a mockup DSA driver.
Open questions:
- if we have more than one bridge on top of a physical switch, the driver
should keep track of that and verify that we are not going to change
the CPU port VLAN attributes in a way that results in incompatible settings
to be applied
- if the default behavior is to have all VLANs associated with the CPU port
be ingressing/egressing tagged to the CPU, is this really useful?
