I agree it would be simpler to ensure that the addresses are uniques.

If MAC3 is not removed with rte_eth_dev_mac_addr_remove() by the app,
MAC3 packets should be received.
The MAC address should not be removed by the PMD.

Let's be clear here: only the new default address is removed from the rest of the list.

Can we avoid this rollback by removing the address after mac_addr_set() succeed?

Sorry for the confusion. I mean the opposite.
With the new behavior, if we want the old default address to be kept
in the list, we need to add it explicitly with rte_eth_dev_mac_addr_add.
This is a behavior change and must be highlighted in the release notes.

Hi Thomas,
Sorry for your confusion. Maybe my cmmmit log is misleading.
Please ignore the second paragraph description in my commit.
It has nothing to do with the old defalut address.
The purpose of this patch is to solve the problem that one
address occupies two entries in MAC list.
All network engines have this problem. If the new defalut address
has been added as a non-default MAC address to the MAC list, this
address will occupy two entries in MAC list.
It's still a problem for some network engines, like, hns3 and i40e.
That's what I described in the second paragraph in my commit.

No, the new default address will be removed if we do that.
we need to remove it first if the new default address has been added as a
non-default MAC address to the MAC list.

The dev->data->mac_addrs[0] will be changed to a new MAC address when
applications modify the default MAC address by .mac_addr_set(). However,
if the new default one has been added as a non-default MAC address by
.mac_addr_add(), the .mac_addr_set() doesn't remove it from the mac_addrs
list. As a result, one MAC address occupies two entries in the list. Like:
add(MAC1)
add(MAC2)
add(MAC3)
add(MAC4)
set_default(MAC3)
default=MAC3, the rest of list=MAC1, MAC2, MAC3, MAC4
Note: MAC3 occupies two entries.
In addition, some PMDs, such as i40e, ice, hns3 and so on, do remove the
old default MAC when set default MAC. If user continues to do
set_default(MAC5), and the mac_addrs list is default=MAC5, filters=(MAC1,
MAC2, MAC3, MAC4). At this moment, user can still see MAC3 from the list,
but packets with MAC3 aren't actually received by the PMD.
So need to ensure that the new default address is removed from the rest of
the list.

Please split the lines after a dot.
rest of "the" list
Maybe better for this field:
All entries are unique.
The first entry (index zero) is the default address.
> struct rte_ether_addr *mac_addrs;
and for the function rte_eth_dev_default_mac_addr_set:
Set the default MAC address.
It replaces the address at index 0 of the address list.
If the address was already in the MAC address list,
it is removed from the rest of the list.

You need to highlight what changed:
When setting a default MAC address with the function
``rte_eth_dev_default_mac_addr_set``,
the address is now removed from the rest of the address list
in order to ensure it is only at index 0 of the list.

Here you can split after the comma.

Sorry for my misunderstanding. Need to occupy one line for each sentence
here?
Do we generally use this style to make comments? or are we just trying

A sentence may be longer than one line,
but it is better split lines logically (after dots, commas, etc).

> to highlight it here?
That's a recommendation when writing text (comments and rst doc).
Having lines split logically may help reading,
and will make simpler patches when updating in future,
because in general we change a single sentence.

The dev->data->mac_addrs[0] will be changed to a new MAC address when
applications modify the default MAC address by .mac_addr_set(). However,
if the new default one has been added as a non-default MAC address by
.mac_addr_add(), the .mac_addr_set() doesn't remove it from the mac_addrs
list. As a result, one MAC address occupies two entries in the list. Like:
add(MAC1)
add(MAC2)
add(MAC3)
add(MAC4)
set_default(MAC3)
default=MAC3, the rest of the list=MAC1, MAC2, MAC3, MAC4
Note: MAC3 occupies two entries.
In addition, some PMDs, such as i40e, ice, hns3 and so on, do remove the
old default MAC when set default MAC. If user continues to do
set_default(MAC5), and the mac_addrs list is default=MAC5, filters=(MAC1,
MAC2, MAC3, MAC4). At this moment, user can still see MAC3 from the list,
but packets with MAC3 aren't actually received by the PMD.
So need to ensure that the new default address is removed from the rest of
the list if the address was already in the list.

Same comment from past seems already valid, I am not looking to the set
for a while, sorry if this is already discussed and decided,
if not, I am referring to the side effect that setting MAC addresses
cause to remove MAC addresses, think following case:
add(MAC1) -> MAC1
add(MAC2) -> MAC1, MAC2
add(MAC3) -> MAC1, MAC2, MAC3
add(MAC4) -> MAC1, MAC2, MAC3, MAC4
set(MAC3) -> MAC3, MAC2, MAC4
set(MAC4) -> MAC4, MAC2
set(MAC2) -> MAC2
I am not exactly clear what is the intention with set(), if there is
single MAC I guess intention is to replace it with new one, but if there
are multiple MACs and one of them are already in the list intention may
be just to change the default MAC.
If above assumption is correct, what about following:
set(MAC) {
if only_default_mac_exist
replace_default_mac
if MAC exists in list
swap MAC and list[0]
else
replace_default_mac
}
This swap prevents removing MAC side affect, does it make sense?

That's the problem, nobody is clear with the current behavior.
The doc says "Set the default MAC address." and nothing else.

The assumption in this patch is that "Set" means "Replace", not "Swap".
So this patch takes the approach 1/ Replace and keep Unique.

This approach 2/ is a mix of Swap and Replace.
The old default MAC destiny depends on whether
we have added the new MAC as "secondary" before setting as new default.
> This swap prevents removing MAC side affect, does it make sense?
Another approach would be 3/ to do an "Always Swap"
even if the new MAC didn't exist before,
you keep the old default MAC as a secondary MAC.
And the current approach 0/ is to Replace default MAC address
without touching the secondary addresses at all.
So we have 4 choices.
We could vote, roll a dice, or find a strong argument?

If there is only one MAC, MAC1, I would certainly expect Set(MAC2) to replace MAC1 with MAC2.
If there is a list of MACs, I might expect Set() to select one in the list. And, if calling Set() with a MAC not in the list, we could either 1. return an error, or 2. implicitly add it to the list and then set it.
If we implicitly add it to the list (i.e. follow option 2 described above), it should not be implicitly be removed from the list if another MAC is Set(). This behavior seems weird, which speaks for returning an error if setting a MAC not in the list (i.e. option 1).
Disclaimer: I have no experience configuring NICs with multiple MACs - we promiscuous mode or one MAC address. So my input regarding multiple MACs is purely theoretical.

Indeed. But we can see the following information.
From the ethdev layer, this set() API always replaces the old default
address (index 0) without adding the old one.
From the PMD layer, set() interface of some PMDs, such as i40e, ice,
hns3 and so on (as far as I know),
also do remove the hardware entry of the old default address.

According to the implement of set() in ethdev and PMD layer, it always
use "Replace", not "Swap".
If we use "Swap" now, the behavior of this API will be changed.
I'm not sure if the application can accept this change or has other effects.
BTW, it seems that the ethernet port in kernel also replaces the old
address if we modify the one.
Use the test command: ifconfig eth0 hw ether new_mac

If we define behavior clearly, I think we can adapt PMD implementation
according it, unless there is HW limitation.

This patch is also changing behavior, because of implied remove address,
same concern is valid with this patch.
As I checked again current implementation may have one more problem
(this from reading code, I did not test this):
add(MAC1) -> MAC1
add(MAC2) -> MAC1, MAC2
set(MAC2) -> MAC2, MAC2
del(MAC2) -> FAILS
This fails because `rte_eth_dev_mac_addr_remove()` can't remove default
MAC, and it only tries to remove first address it finds, it can't find
and remove second 'MAC2'.
I wasn't too much bothered with wasting one MAC address slot, so wasn't
sure if a change is required at all, but if above analysis is correct I
think this is more serious problem to justify the change.
I don't think always swap (option /3) is good idea, specially for single
MAC address exists case, and current case has (option 0/) has mentioned
problems.
Remaining ones are mix of swap and replace (option 2/) and this patch
(option /1).
I think mix of swap and replace (option 2/ above) has some benefits:
- It always replaces default MAC
- Prevents duplication MAC address in the list
- Doesn't implicitly remove address from list
BUT, if the agreement is this patch (option 1/) I am OK with that too, I
just want to make sure that it is discussed.

For default MAC address it is more clear that intention is to replace
it, but question is about what to do with the list of MAC addresses.

Right. I think this is another point (issue 2/) to be discussed.
Namely, whether the old default address should be removed when set new
default one.
If we want to explicitly unify the behavior of all PMDs in ethdev layer
as described above,
there may be no problem if do the following:
1) In the ethdev layer, remove the old default address if the old one is
exist.
2) For PMD i40e, ice and hns3, remvoe the code of deleting the old
default address before adding the new one.
For other PMDs, we probably don't need to do anything because they
have supported remove_addr() API.
(Without explicitly removing the old default address, I don't know
if their hardware or firmware
removes the old one when set a new address. But, we explicitly
remove the old one in ethdev layer now,
I'm not sure if this has an effect on these PMDs.)

Indeed, it changes the behavior.
But this patch only resolves the problem (issue 1/) that the entries of
the MAC address list possibly are not uniques.
Fixing it may be little impact on the application.

Your analysis is fully correct.

As far as I know, the first entry (index 0) always be the default
address in all PMDs,
but it's not documented. (So this patch did it, that's what was
discussed earlier).
The 'Swap' may be inappropriate. It may need to be discussed.

Hi Ferruh and Thomas,
As mentioned above, they are actually two problems (issue /1 and issue /2).
Can we deal with them separately?
#1 For issue /1, it's really a problem. This patch is responsible for it.
#2 For issue /2, I will send a RFC to discuss as described above.
It may require the participation of all PMD maintainers.
What do you think?

Yes, index 0 always holds the default MAC, +1 to document this.
In option /2, MAC swap is done only if the MAC address is already in the
list.
Another option can be to store an enabled/disabled flag for each MAC
address in the list.
In set(MAC), if MAC is already in the list, the existing one in the list
can be disabled. Next time default MAC changed, disabled MAC can be
enabled again. Like:
(d) => disabled
add(MAC1) -> MAC1
add(MAC2) -> MAC1, MAC2
add(MAC3) -> MAC1, MAC2, MAC3
add(MAC4) -> MAC1, MAC2, MAC3, MAC4
set(MAC3) -> MAC3, MAC2, MAC3(d), MAC4
set(MAC4) -> MAC4, MAC2, MAC3, MAC4(d)
set(MAC2) -> MAC2, MAC2(d), MAC3, MAC4
set(MAC5) -> MAC5, MAC2, MAC3, MAC4
The ones disabled in the ethdev layer can be explicitly removed in
drivers, and the ones enabled in the ethdev layer can be explicitly
added back in drives. This simplifies the driver implementation a lot.

Agree to separate fixing drivers (issue /2) and ethdev (issue /1), and
drivers can be fixed after ethdev clarified.
Sorry that this patch is taking time because expected behavior is not
clear, and we are not getting enough feedback for it. Also issue is not
a major or a blocking issue.

Whether the 'swap' is required in this case depends on the assumption
that the
old default address needs to be 'secondary' address when set new default
one, right?
It is still the same issue as issue /2 to be discussed.

Good idea, but it's a little complicated.
If I understand correctly, all of the above are done under the condition
that 'swap' is accepted.

Yeah, we are in the same boat.😁

Wouldn't it be simpler and more reasonable to make sure that the entries
in the MAC list are uniques?

IMO, the last point to be discussed and have enough feedback is the
issue /2 instead of issue /1.
Whether the old default address needs to be removed or swapped when set
new one is the major or a blocking issue.
We can't go back and forth between them. we should break the cycle.
For issue /1 (duplicate entries), please forget what to do with the old
default address. I'm sure you'll think it's ok.
Let's take a new discussion for the old default address in set() API to
get enough feedback.
what do you think, Ferruh and Thomas?

We don't know if default address needs to be 'secondary' address or not,
swap is just a way to both keep list unique and don't implicit remove
any MAC address.

Agree it is more complicated, and no this doesn't require swap.
Instead of implicitly removing duplicated MAC address it keeps in the
ethdev list as disabled, and adds it back when default MAC is changed.

Yes, above part is OK. Only problem is it may cause shrinking the MAC

Does it work to present options to techboard, get a decision and proceed
with it?

The root cause of shrinking the MAC list is that the old default address
is removed when set MAC address,
rather than removing the address being already in the rest of the list.

+techboard for comment.
Btw, what was your positioning to Bruce's suggestion,
when a MAC address is in the list, fail to set it as default and enforce
user do the corrective action (delete MAC explicitly etc...).
If you are OK with it, that is good for me too, unless techboard objects
we can proceed with that one.

If a MAC address is in the list, rte_eth_dev_default_mac_addr_set

Yes.
In that case API can return EEXIST or similar. In this case user need to
call 'rte_eth_dev_mac_addr_remove()' first and call
'rte_eth_dev_default_mac_addr_set()' again, if this is the intention.

The dev->data->mac_addrs[0] will be changed to a new MAC address when
applications modify the default MAC address by .mac_addr_set(). However,
if the new default one has been added as a non-default MAC address by
.mac_addr_add(), the .mac_addr_set() didn't check this address.
As a result, this MAC address occupies two entries in the list. Like:
add(MAC1)
add(MAC2)
add(MAC3)
add(MAC4)
set_default(MAC3)
default=MAC3, the rest of the list=MAC1, MAC2, MAC3, MAC4
Note: MAC3 occupies two entries.
But .mac_addr_set() cannot remove it implicitly in case of MAC address
shrinking in the list.
So this patch adds a check on whether the new default address was already
in the list and if so requires the user to remove it first.
In addition, this patch documents the position of the default MAC address
and address unique in the list.

Can you please document last sentences under '@return' as (-EEXIST)
