H A DKconfigdiff 4e20e73e631ac4c2f7af603f14bd44a6d77d919c Fri Aug 06 17:26:02 CEST 2021 Alexandra Winter <wintera@linux.ibm.com> s390/qeth: Switchdev event handler

QETH HiperSockets devices with LEARNING_SYNC capability can be used
to construct a linux bridge with:
2 isolated southbound interfaces:
a) a default network interface
b) a LEARNING-SYNC HiperSockets interface
and 1 non-isolated northbound interface. This is called a 'HiperSockets
Converged Interface' (HSCI).
The existing LEARNING_SYNC functionality is used to update the bridge fdb
with MAC addresses that should be sent-out via the HiperSockets interface,
instead of the default network interface.

Add handling of switchdev events SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_DEVICE and
SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL_TO_DEVICE to the qeth LEARNING_SYNC functionality. Thus
if the northbound bridgeport of an HSCI doesn't only have a single static
MAC address, but instead is a learning bridgeport, work is enqueued, so
the HiperSockets virtual switch (that is external to this Linux instance)
can update its fdb.

When BRIDGE is a loadable module, QETH_L2 mustn't be built-in:

drivers/s390/net/qeth_l2_main.o: in function 'qeth_l2_switchdev_event':
drivers/s390/net/qeth_l2_main.c:927: undefined reference to
'br_port_flag_is_set'

Add Kconfig dependency to enforce usable configurations.
