      net: dsa: Add support for deferred xmit · 97a69a0d
      Vladimir Oltean 提交于
      Some hardware needs to take work to get convinced to receive frames on
      the CPU port (such as the sja1105 which takes temporary L2 forwarding
      rules over SPI that last for a single frame). Such work needs a
      sleepable context, and because the regular .ndo_start_xmit is atomic,
      this cannot be done in the tagger. So introduce a generic DSA mechanism
      that sets up a transmit skb queue and a workqueue for deferred
      transmission.
      
      The new driver callback (.port_deferred_xmit) is in dsa_switch and not
      in the tagger because the operations that require sleeping typically
      also involve interacting with the hardware, and not simply skb
      manipulations. Therefore having it there simplifies the structure a bit
      and makes it unnecessary to export functions from the driver to the
      tagger.
      
      The driver is responsible of calling dsa_enqueue_skb which transfers it
      to the master netdevice. This is so that it has a chance of performing
      some more work afterwards, such as cleanup or TX timestamping.
      
      To tell DSA that skb xmit deferral is required, I have thought about
      changing the return type of the tagger .xmit from struct sk_buff * into
      a enum dsa_tx_t that could potentially encode a DSA_XMIT_DEFER value.
      
      But the trailer tagger is reallocating every skb on xmit and therefore
      making a valid use of the pointer return value. So instead of reworking
      the API in complicated ways, right now a boolean property in the newly
      introduced DSA_SKB_CB is set.

      net: Add extack argument to ndo_fdb_add() · 87b0984e
      Petr Machata 提交于
      Drivers may not be able to support certain FDB entries, and an error
      code is insufficient to give clear hints as to the reasons of rejection.
      
      In order to make it possible to communicate the rejection reason, extend
      ndo_fdb_add() with an extack argument. Adapt the existing
      implementations of ndo_fdb_add() to take the parameter (and ignore it).
      Pass the extack parameter when invoking ndo_fdb_add() from rtnl_fdb_add().

      net: dsa: Plug in PHYLINK support · aab9c406
      Florian Fainelli 提交于
      Add support for PHYLINK within the DSA subsystem in order to support more
      complex devices such as pluggable (SFP) and non-pluggable (SFF) modules, 10G
      PHYs, and traditional PHYs. Using PHYLINK allows us to drop some amount of
      complexity we had while probing fixed and non-fixed PHYs using Device Tree.
      
      Because PHYLINK separates the Ethernet MAC/port configuration into different
      stages, we let switch drivers implement those, and for now, we maintain
      functionality by calling dsa_slave_adjust_link() during
      phylink_mac_link_{up,down} which provides semantically equivalent steps.
      
      Drivers willing to take advantage of PHYLINK should implement the phylink_mac_*
      operations that DSA wraps.
      
      We cannot quite remove the adjust_link() callback just yet, because a number of
      drivers rely on that for configuring their "CPU" and "DSA" ports, this is done
      dsa_port_setup_phy_of() and dsa_port_fixed_link_register_of() still.
      
      Drivers that utilize fixed links for user-facing ports (e.g: bcm_sf2) will need
      to implement phylink_mac_ops from now on to preserve functionality, since PHYLINK
      *does not* create a phy_device instance for fixed links.
