Merge branch 'net-ndo_fdb_add-del-have-drivers-report-whether-they-no…
…tified' Petr Machata says: ==================== net: ndo_fdb_add/del: Have drivers report whether they notified Currently when FDB entries are added to or deleted from a VXLAN netdevice, the VXLAN driver emits one notification, including the VXLAN-specific attributes. The core however always sends a notification as well, a generic one. Thus two notifications are unnecessarily sent for these operations. A similar situation comes up with bridge driver, which also emits notifications on its own. # ip link add name vx type vxlan id 1000 dstport 4789 # bridge monitor fdb & [1] 1981693 # bridge fdb add de:ad:be:ef:13:37 dev vx self dst 192.0.2.1 de:ad:be:ef:13:37 dev vx dst 192.0.2.1 self permanent de:ad:be:ef:13:37 dev vx self permanent In order to prevent this duplicity, add a parameter, bool *notified, to ndo_fdb_add and ndo_fdb_del. The flag is primed to false, and if the callee sends a notification on its own, it sets the flag to true, thus informing the core that it should not generate another notification. Patches #1 to #2 are concerned with the above. In the remaining patches, #3 to #7, add a selftest. This takes place across several patches. Many of the helpers we would like to use for the test are in forwarding/lib.sh, whereas net/ is a more suitable place for the test, so the libraries need to be massaged a bit first. ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <[email protected]>
