In switchdev mode, broadcast filter is not enabled on VFs, The broadcasts and
unknown frames from VFs are received by the PF and passed to corresponding VF
port representator netdev.
A host based switching entity like a linux bridge or OVS redirects these frames
to the right VFs via VFPR netdevs. Any frames sent via VFPR netdevs are sent as
directed transmits to the corresponding VFs. To enable directed transmit, skb
metadata dst is used to pass the VF id and the frame is requeued to call the PFs
transmit routine.

Small script to demonstrate inter VF pings in switchdev mode.

So the representator netdevs do or don't have TX/RX rings of their
own? if the latter, was there any special locking you had to do for
that?

Are you exposing switchdev ops for the representators? didn't see that
or maybe it's in the 4th patch which didn't make it to the list?

Atleast in the inital implementation,  we are not creating any TX/RX 
rings for VFPR netdevs.
skb->dev is set to the PF device  and skb is requeued via dev_queue_xmit().

Not at this time. In the future patches when we offload fdb/vlan 
functionality, we could use
switchdev ops.

but wait, this is the switchdev mode... even before doing any
offloading, you want (need) your representor netdevices to have the
same HW ID marking they are all ports of the same ASIC, this you can
do with the switchdev parent ID attribute.

OK. I will add switchdev_port_attr_get() with PORT_PARENT_ID support in v3.

Thanks

Good, I made this comment, b/c we want to create a well defined user-experience
to be taken into account also by upper virtualization layers.

Another piece there to add is have your VF reps implement the
get_phys_port_name ndo,
where as we explain in commit cb67b832921cfa20ad79bafdc51f1745339d0557 is used
as follows:

    Port phys name (ndo_get_phys_port_name) is implemented to allow exporting
    to user-space the VF vport number and along with the switchdev port parent
    id (phys_switch_id) enable a udev base consistent naming scheme:

    SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", ATTR{phys_switch_id}=="<phys_switch_id>", \
            ATTR{phys_port_name}!="", NAME="$PF_NIC$attr{phys_port_name}"

    where phys_switch_id is exposed by the PF (and VF reps) and $PF_NIC is
    the name of the PF netdevice.

Or.

It looks like you are returning the VF port number as phys_port_name() 
for a VF rep in en_rep.c.
Is this correct?

By default i am creating VFPR netdev with name as <pf_name>_VF<vf_num>
For ex; if enp5s0f0 is the pf name, VFPR netdev for VF0 will be enp5s0f0_vf0

If we want udev to follow this syntax should i return '_vf0'  as 
get_phys_port_name() for VF rep 0?

yeah, correct, what we all call the VF rep actually represents the eswitch
vport the VF is connected to. The most flexible input for user space would
be just to get this port number along with the switchdev ID which tells
them to which switch this port belongs.

just return a number. Typically the PF is vport #0, so for vf0 you would
return 1, this is aligned with the kernel switchdev documentation [1]
