This patch set extends the locked port feature for devices that are behind a locked port, but do not have the ability to authorize themselves as a supplicant using IEEE 802.1X. Such devices can be printers, meters or anything related to fixed installations. Instead of 802.1X authorization, devices can get access based on their MAC addresses being whitelisted.
For an authorization daemon to detect that a device is trying to get access through a locked port, the bridge will add the MAC address of the device to the FDB with a locked flag to it. Thus the authorization daemon can catch the FDB add event and check if the MAC address is in the whitelist and if so replace the FDB entry without the locked flag enabled, and thus open the port for the device.
This feature is known as MAC-Auth or MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) in Cisco terminology, where the full MAB concept involves additional Cisco infrastructure for authorization. There is no real authentication process, as the MAC address of the device is the only input the authorization daemon, in the general case, has to base the decision if to unlock the port or not.
With this patch set, an implementation of the offloaded case is supplied for the mv88e6xxx driver. When a packet ingresses on a locked port, an ATU miss violation event will occur. When handling such ATU miss violation interrupts, the MAC address of the device is added to the FDB with a zero destination port vector (DPV) and the MAC address is communicated through the switchdev layer to the bridge, so that a FDB entry with the locked flag enabled can be added.
Log: v3: Added timers and lists in the driver (mv88e6xxx) to keep track of and remove locked entries.
v4: Leave out enforcing a limit to the number of locked entries in the bridge. Removed the timers in the driver and use the worker only. Add locked FDB flag to all drivers using port_fdb_add() from the dsa api and let all drivers ignore entries with this flag set. Change how to get the ageing timeout of locked entries. See global1_atu.c and switchdev.c. Use struct mv88e6xxx_port for locked entries variables instead of struct dsa_port.
v5: Added 'mab' flag to enable MAB/MacAuth feature, in a similar way to the locked feature flag.
In these implementations for the mv88e6xxx, the switchport must be configured with learning on.
To tell userspace about the behavior of the locked entries in the driver, a 'blackhole' FDB flag has been added, which locked FDB entries coming from the driver gets. Also the 'sticky' flag comes with those locked entries, as the drivers locked entries cannot roam.
Fixed issues with taking mutex locks, and added a function to read the fid, that supports all versions of the chipset family.
