Hi Vladimir, thank you for quick review! On Wed, 2023-05-31 at 18:16 +0300, Vladimir Oltean wrote:

LAN9303 doesn't associate FDB (ALR) entries with VLANs, it has just one global Address Logic Resolution table [1]. Ignore VID in port_fdb_{add|del} methods, go on with the global table. This is the same semantics as hellcreek or RZ/N1 implement. Visible symptoms: LAN9303_MDIO 5b050000.ethernet-1:00: port 2 failed to delete 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:cf vid 1 from fdb: -2 LAN9303_MDIO 5b050000.ethernet-1:00: port 2 failed to add 00:xx:xx:xx:xx:cf vid 1 to fdb: -95 [1] https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/00002308A.pdf Fixes: 0620427ea0d6 ("net: dsa: lan9303: Add fdb/mdb manipulation") Signed-off-by: Alexander Sverdlin <alexander.sverdlin@siemens.com> ---Thanks for taking a look. Although it would probably be safer to add: Fixes: 2fd186501b1c ("net: dsa: be louder when a non-legacy FDB operation fails") since I'm not sure it has a reason to be backported beyond that.
Well, it's not only about visible errors, but the driver also refused to install the FDB entries, so it's change in behaviour, not only cosmetics.
