net: marvell: prestera: add LAG support
The following features are supported:
- LAG basic operations
- create/delete LAG
- add/remove a member to LAG
- enable/disable member in LAG
- LAG Bridge support
- LAG VLAN support
- LAG FDB support
Limitations:
- Only HASH lag tx type is supported
- The Hash parameters are not configurable. They are applied
during the LAG creation stage.
- Enslaving a port to the LAG device that already has an
upper device is not supported.
Changes extracted from:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/2/3/877
and marked with "v2".
v2:
There are 2 additional preparation patches which simplifies the
netdev topology handling.
1) Initialize 'lag' with NULL in prestera_lag_create() [suggested by Vladimir Oltean]
2) Use -ENOSPC in prestera_lag_port_add() if max lag [suggested by Vladimir Oltean]
numbers were reached.
3) Do not propagate netdev events to prestera_switchdev [suggested by Vladimir Oltean]
but call bridge specific funcs. It simplifies the code.
4) Check on info->link_up in prestera_netdev_port_lower_event() [suggested by Vladimir Oltean]
5) Return -EOPNOTSUPP in prestera_netdev_port_event() in case [suggested by Vladimir Oltean]
LAG hashing mode is not supported.
6) Do not pass "lower" netdev to bridge join/leave functions. [suggested by Vladimir Oltean]
It is not need as offloading settings applied on particular
physical port. It requires to do extra upper dev lookup
in case port is in the LAG which is in the bridge on vlans add/del.

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.
