Please ignore above mib counters. I noticed that I see lot of RxFCSErrors
and RxSymbolErrors for extswitch. The count for both counters always
remain same.

I'm able to now use sw0port8 <-> eth2 (i.e use cpu port 8 to connect to gmac2).
For this I had to modify net/dsa/b53/b53_common.c (see below). This is how
it is setup in net/phy/b53/b53_common.c. Also need to set
cpu_port = B53_CPU_PORT for 53012 sw instead of B53_CPU_PORT_25

  b53_read8(dev, B53_VLAN_PAGE, B53_VLAN_CTRL5, &vc5);

Given that I see RxFCSErrors and RxSymbolErrors errors wrt extswitch.
configuration definitely needs tweaking. I tried setting the phy-mode to
rgmii and rgmii-txid but no go.

Yes that is not exactly good, it means that the RGMII interface between
the internal and external switches is not properly configured.

I actually plan to remove the use cpu_port entirely, or actually only
use it as a "hint" of which CPU ports are capable of supporting Broadcom
tags. A better change for now would be not to use dev->cpu_port, but
instead use ds->dst->cpu_dp->index like what b53_br_join() does.

Humm, that I don't really understand because this is turning on managed
mode which only influences how multicast addresses are processed, it
should not make a different for non-MC traffic AFAICT.

Configuration may have to be tuned on both switches unfortunately
because both RGMII interfaces would have the ability to configure
delays. Do you have a way to dump what the original firmware settings
for the register that b53_adjust_link() modifies such that we can see
what was previous configured?

Thanks!

It appears that I do not need to set any phy-mode on internal sw's
port 0 or external sw's port 8. Also, you were right about internal port 0 to
be configured as tagged member of the vlan. It was indeed set to untagged!
LEDE lacks aw way to configure this. But I can do this via a post script.

After making above changes I was able to ping the router using physical port on
external switch. However, the ping dies out after few seconds. I'm try to figure
out the cause for this. Al least, I have some connectivity!

This will be quite helpful as current implementation creates some confusion
when there are more than one cpu ports.

I tried to remove setting of SM_SW_FWD_MODE but no go. Even GPL source
sets it for 53012. For now I'll leave it until I get back to it.
