As I am not familiar with roaming in this context, I need to know how the SW bridge should behave in this case.
In this case, is the roaming only between locked ports or does the roaming include that the entry can move to a unlocked port, resulting in the locked flag getting removed?
Any two ports. If the "locked" entry in mv88e6xxx cannot move once installed, then the "sticky" flag accurately describes it.
But since I am also doing the SW bridge implementation without mv88e6xxx I need it to function according to needs. Thus the locked entries created in the bridge I shall not put the sticky flag on, but there will be the situation where a locked entry can move to an unlocked port, which we regarded as a bug. In that case there is two possibilities, the locked entry can move to an unlocked port with the locked flag being removed or the locked entry can only move to another locked port?
