net/hsr: Add support for the High-availability Seamless Redundancy protocol (HSRv0) High-availability Seamless Redundancy ("HSR") provides instant failover redundancy for Ethernet networks. It requires a special network topology where all nodes are connected in a ring (each node having two physical network interfaces). It is suited for applications that demand high availability and very short reaction time. HSR acts on the Ethernet layer, using a registered Ethernet protocol type to send special HSR frames in both directions over the ring. The driver creates virtual network interfaces that can be used just like any ordinary Linux network interface, for IP/TCP/UDP traffic etc. All nodes in the network ring must be HSR capable. This code is a "best effort" to comply with the HSR standard as described in IEC 62439-3:2010 (HSRv0). Signed-off-by: Arvid Brodin <arvid.brodin@xdin.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

It is similar to HSR in many aspects:- - Use a pair of Ethernet interfaces to created the PRP device - Use a 6 byte redundancy protocol part (RCT, Redundancy Check Trailer) similar to HSR Tag. - Has Link Redundancy Entity (LRE) that works with RCT to implement redundancy. Key difference is that the protocol unit is a trailer instead of a prefix as in HSR. That makes it inter-operable with tradition network components such as bridges/switches which treat it as pad bytes, whereas HSR nodes requires some kind of translators (Called redbox) to talk to regular network devices.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines, I also fixed the indentation.

DANH ("Doubly attached node implementing HSR") or DANP ("Doubly
attached node implementing PRP"). For this to work, your Linux box
needs (at least) two physical Ethernet interfaces.
For DANH, it must be connected as a node in a ring network together
with other HSR capable nodes. All Ethernet frames sent over the HSR
device will be sent in both directions on the ring (over both slave
ports), giving a redundant, instant fail-over network. Each HSR node
in the ring acts like a bridge for HSR frames, but filters frames
that have been forwarded earlier.

For DANP, it must be connected as a node connecting to two
separate networks over the two slave interfaces. Like HSR, Ethernet
frames sent over the PRP device will be sent to both networks giving
a redundant, instant fail-over network. Unlike HSR, PRP networks
can have Singly Attached Nodes (SAN) such as PC, printer, bridges
etc and will be able to communicate with DANP nodes.

You need to perform any and all necessary tests yourself before
relying on this code in a safety critical system!
If unsure, say N.
