From 4eab90d9737b348094a99ba4e4c473e91a8b8038 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vladimir Oltean Date: Sun, 8 Aug 2021 17:35:24 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] net: dsa: don't fast age bridge ports with learning turned off On topology changes, stations that were dynamically learned on ports that are no longer part of the active topology must be flushed - this is described by clause "17.11 Updating learned station location information" of IEEE 802.1D-2004. However, when address learning on the bridge port is turned off in the first place, there is nothing to flush, so skip a potentially expensive operation. We can finally do this now since DSA is aware of the learning state of its bridged ports. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean Signed-off-by: David S.
