[ Upstream commit 36dd1141be70b5966906919714dc504a24c65ddf ] I was revisiting the topic of 802.1ad treatment in the Ocelot switch [0] and realized that not only is its basic VLAN classification pipeline improper for offloading vlan_protocol 802.1ad bridges, but also improper for offloading regular 802.1Q bridges already. Namely, 802.1ad-tagged traffic should be treated as VLAN-untagged by bridged ports, but this switch treats it as if it was 802.1Q-tagged with the same VID as in the 802.1ad header. This is markedly different to what the Linux bridge expects; see the "other_tpid()" function in tools/testing/selftests/net/forwarding/bridge_vlan_aware.sh. An idea came to me that the VCAP IS1 TCAM is more powerful than I'm giving it credit for, and that it actually overwrites the classified VID before the VLAN Table lookup takes place. In other words, it can be used even to save a packet from being dropped on ingress due to VLAN membership. Add a sophisticated TCAM rule hardcoded into the driver to force the switch to behave like a Linux bridge with vlan_filtering 1 vlan_protocol 802.1Q. Regarding the lifetime of the filter: eventually the bridge will disappear, and vlan_filtering on the port will be restored to 0 for standalone mode. Then the filter will be deleted.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
