I think it would be better to just merge PR #12064. The primary problem is the additional logs that appear on the console coming from the DSA driver. This can be fixed later. Apart from that, everything works fine :) |

I tend to second this. |
those logs are not something to ignore... they are dsa failing to add fdb entry... that will result in missing packet or even worse having them forwarded to wrong port or to every port... resulting in a security risk... I'm pretty positive the target will be reintroduced in rc stage. So this commit it's really just to move the migration further |
|
@Ansuel fell free to merge |
The target is currently broken with Kernel 5.15 and no one in sight to fix it. Instead of stalling the next release indefinitely, make it source only and see if someone steps up to fix it. Signed-off-by: Paul Spooren <paul.spooren@rhebo.com>

The gswip driver is only used by the xrx200 subtarget. Other subtargets should not be affected |
|
Maybe it is possible to mark as source-only only the xrx200 subtarget? |
|
Is there any issue open to track this problem with addition of fdb entries, with a concise problem description? It seems unlikely that anything will get done if there's no issue to track it... I do see the messages on a BT Home Hub 5a, but they only reference MAC addresses of local interfaces (switch ports and wifi phy), not any from other hosts, so I'm not sure these messages are indicative of a real issue. There is #11650 , but I don't think it's related to these messages. |

@Ansuel What is the situation now with the lantiq/xrx200 target? Could the problem be solved with the GSWIP for the next openwrt-23.05 stable? Any news about this problem? I have seen that there is a pull request in the master for the lantiq to port this SOC to 6.1. There are also patches for the GSWIP DSA for 5.15. @hauke Shouldn't these not be merged first into the next stable openwrt-23.05? |

@feckert can you link these patch? I'm not following gswip but the situation is the same as prev, aka the intention is to ""delay"" release waiting for a not so late fix for lantiq |
