Current bridge code incorrectly handles starting/stopping of hello and
hold timers during STP enable/disable.

1. Timers are stopped in br_stp_start() during NO_STP->USER_STP
   transition. The timers are already stopped in NO_STP state so
   this is confusing no-op.

2. During USER_STP->NO_STP transition the timers are started. This
   does not make sense and is confusion because the timer should not be
   active in NO_STP state.

Current bridge code incorrectly handles starting/stopping of hello and
hold timers during STP enable/disable.

1. Timers are stopped in br_stp_start() during NO_STP->USER_STP
   transition. The timers are already stopped in NO_STP state so
   this is confusing no-op.

2. During USER_STP->NO_STP transition the timers are started. This
   does not make sense and is confusion because the timer should not be
   active in NO_STP state.

Hi Ivan,

Shouldn't we start hello timer in br_stp_start when NO_STP -> BR_KERNEL_STP ?

Yes, but what about BR_KERNEL_STP -> NO_STP in function br_stp_stop() ?

I'm not sure if user space daemon will send bpdu or not? In comment
76b91c32dd86 ("bridge: stp: when using userspace stp stop kernel hello and
hold timers"). Nikolay said we should not handle it with BR_USER_STP.

If we do not del hello_timer. after it expired in br_hello_timer_expired(),
Our state is br->dev->flags & IFF_UP and br->stp_enabled == NO_STP, it will
call mod_timer(&br->hello_timer, round_jiffies(jiffies + br->hello_time))
and we will keep sending bpdu message even after stp stoped.

Hi Ivan,

Shouldn't we start hello timer in br_stp_start when NO_STP -> BR_KERNEL_STP ?

Yes, but what about BR_KERNEL_STP -> NO_STP in function br_stp_stop() ?

I'm not sure if user space daemon will send bpdu or not? In comment
76b91c32dd86 ("bridge: stp: when using userspace stp stop kernel hello and
hold timers"). Nikolay said we should not handle it with BR_USER_STP.

If we do not del hello_timer. after it expired in br_hello_timer_expired(),
Our state is br->dev->flags & IFF_UP and br->stp_enabled == NO_STP, it will
call mod_timer(&br->hello_timer, round_jiffies(jiffies + br->hello_time))
and we will keep sending bpdu message even after stp stoped.

Please see Xin Long's recent -net patch that fixes exactly this issue.
It will answer your questions below, too.

The timer is lazily stopped by itself in its handler... or not rearmed
respectively.

As Nikolay mentioned, this is fixed by
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/764685/

The timer is lazily stopped by itself in its handler... or not rearmed
respectively.

Ah, sorry. My mistake. I only saw xin's patch and your v2 patch. So I mixed
them up and thought this is xin's V2 patch. That's why I wonder we didn't
start hello timer in br_stp_start...

Now I see your v1 patch with:

The patch is a follow-up for "bridge: start hello_timer when enabling
KERNEL_STP in br_stp_start" patch from Xin Long."

Sorry for mixed them up.

Yes, with xin's patch this timer will stoped by itself.
