With the best_effort_vlan_filtering mode now gone, the driver does not
have 3 operating modes anymore (VLAN-unaware, VLAN-aware and best effort),
but only 2.
The idea is that we will gain support for network stack I/O through a
VLAN-aware bridge, using the data plane offload framework (imprecise RX,
imprecise TX). So the VLAN-aware use case will be more functional.
But standalone ports that are part of the same switch when some other
ports are under a VLAN-aware bridge should work too. Termination on
those should work through the tag_8021q RX VLAN and TX VLAN.
This was not possible using the old logic, because:
- in VLAN-unaware mode, only the tag_8021q VLANs were committed to hw
- in VLAN-aware mode, only the bridge VLANs were committed to hw
- in best-effort VLAN mode, both the tag_8021q and bridge VLANs were
committed to hw
The strategy for the new VLAN-aware mode is to allow the bridge and the
tag_8021q VLANs to coexist in the VLAN table at the same time.
[ yes, we need to make sure that the bridge cannot install a tag_8021q
VLAN, but ]
This means that the save/restore logic introduced by commit

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.
