There's one major flaw; unicast traffic is never received on any port.
Broadcast traffic is received however, and on the correct port. Thus
an external machine can make an ARP request and get a response, for
example. With a manually-entered ARP entry, the router can send pings
out to a remote machine which responds, and the response is lost in the
DSA switch. "ethtool -S" reports pings received on "in_unicast" but
nothing makes it through the switch. This thread[0] seems very similar.
I've run out of ideas here and can't find any switch datasheets to give
me pointers so any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi Jamie

So it is 6131? So part of the 6185 family.

Yes, that's what's detected and the OpenWRT page says 88E6131-LAR1. And my test setup looks like:

88e6131
  |- lan1:10.100.1.55 <-- switch --> eth0:10.100.1.41 -|
  |- lan4:10.100.4.55 <-- cable  --> enp0:10.100.4.41 -|
                                                    laptop
enp0 is a 100M USB network card, the switch is gigabit and on the rest of my network here, so there's assorted background broadcast chatter. If the noise is confusing matters then can disconnect it.

Firstly I've tried to to rebase against net-next[0], but after adding 6131 to mv88e6xxx_of_match, &chip->ppu_work seems to be causing a NULL pointer ooops. I'll assume it's not done yet and ignore net-next for now.

I see you have NET_TAG_DSA, but not NET_TAG_EDSA in your
configuration. Try swapping to EDSA. I even removed support for
TAG_DSA in one of the recent patches.

Okay, back to my original wnr854t-support-v0a branch based on 4.6, switched to .tag_protocol = DSA_TAG_PROTO_EDSA and reconfig'ed to add support, but there's no traffic in/out of any port. tcpdump on the underlying ethernet port shows encapsulated broadcast traffic, e.g. this ARP request from enp0:10.100.4.41:

00:15:31.173399 1a:ff:0f:fe:10:22 (oui Unknown) > Broadcast, ethertype Unknown (0xc008), length 64:
        0x0000:  0000 0806 0001 0800 0604 0001 1aff 0ffe  ................
        0x0010:  1022 0a64 0429 0000 0000 0000 0a64 0437  .".d.).......d.7
        0x0020:  0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000  ................
        0x0030:  0000                                     ..

...but no unicast traffic.

Please also can you get https://github.com/vivien/linux.git commit
323321875671dfe95b6b91ce051a74d415c7158c which will give you some
extra debug files /sys/kernel/debug/mv88e6xxx.

The reg, stats, and atu would be interesting.

Okay, I rebased 4.7-rc7, ignoring my ropey attempts to configure the LEDs, cherry-picked the above commit. Pushed the result if it's useful[1]. The debugfs code wouldn't patch cleanly onto 4.6 or net-next.

On boot up I get:

mdio_bus f1072004.mdio-bu: switch 0x106 probed: Marvell 88E6131, revision 6

(mii_bus:phy_addr=dsa-0:00:07, irq=-1)

Like above (since 4.7 seems to use DSA_TAG_PROTO_EDSA), there's no traffic visible with tcpdump on lan1/4 (broadcast or unicast), only broadcast traffic on the backing port, eth0.

Apart from (laptop enp0), everything is on lan1/port 5. Let me know if it's useful to shed the background noise and/or try something in particular. Thanks for the help!
