net: Support STP on bridge in non-root netns.
Currently, STP does not work in non-root netns as llc_rcv() drops
packets from non-root netns.
This series fixes it by making some protocol handlers netns-aware,
which are called from llc_rcv() as follows:
llc_rcv()
|
|- sap->rcv_func : registered by llc_sap_open()
|
| * functions : regsitered by register_8022_client()
| -> No in-kernel user call register_8022_client()
|
| * snap_rcv()
| |
| `- proto->rcvfunc() : registered by register_snap_client()
|
| * aarp_rcv() : drop packets from non-root netns
| * atalk_rcv() : drop packets from non-root netns
|
| * stp_pdu_rcv()
| |
| `- garp_protos[]->rcv() : registered by stp_proto_register()
|
| * garp_pdu_rcv() : netns-aware
| * br_stp_rcv() : netns-aware
|
|- llc_type_handlers[llc_pdu_type(skb) - 1]
|
| * llc_sap_handler() : NOT netns-aware (Patch 1)
| * llc_conn_handler() : NOT netns-aware (Patch 2)
|
`- llc_station_handler
* llc_station_rcv() : netns-aware
Patch 1 & 2 convert not-netns-aware functions and Patch 3 remove the
netns restriction in llc_rcv().
Note this series does not namespacify AF_LLC so that these patches
can be backported to stable without conflicts (at least to 4.14.y).
Another series that adds netns support for AF_LLC will be targeted
to net-next later.
