net: dsa: Fix duplicate object rule

2017-02-09T22:11:09+00:00

While adding switch.o to the list of DSA object files, we essentially duplicated the previous obj-y line and just added switch.o, remove the duplicate. Fixes: f515f192ab4f ("net: dsa: add switch notifier") Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli Reviewed-by: Vivien Didelot Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: dsa: add switch notifier

2017-02-06T21:53:29+00:00

Add a notifier block per DSA switch, registered against a notifier head in the switch fabric they belong to. This infrastructure will allow to propagate fabric-wide events such as port bridging, VLAN configuration, etc. If a DSA switch driver cares about cross-chip configuration, such events can be caught.

net: dsa: Remove hwmon support

2017-01-20T19:42:51+00:00

Only the Marvell mv88e6xxx DSA driver made use of the HWMON support in DSA. The temperature sensor registers are actually in the embedded PHYs, and the PHY driver now supports it. So remove all HWMON support from DSA and drivers. Signed-off-by: Andrew Lunn Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: dsa: move HWMON support to its own file

2017-01-08T03:37:22+00:00

Isolate the HWMON support in DSA in its own file. Currently only the legacy DSA code is concerned. Signed-off-by: Vivien Didelot Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn Reviewed-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net-next: dsa: add Qualcomm tag RX/TX handler

2016-09-16T08:31:51+00:00

Add support for the 2-bytes Qualcomm tag that gigabit switches such as the QCA8337/N might insert when receiving packets, or that we need to insert while targeting specific switch ports. The tag is inserted directly behind the ethernet header. Reviewed-by: Andrew Lunn Reviewed-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: John Crispin Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: dsa: Add new binding implementation

2016-06-04T21:29:55+00:00

The existing DSA binding has a number of limitations and problems. The main problem is that it cannot represent a switch as a linux device, hanging off some bus. It is limited to one CPU port. The DSA platform device is artificial, and does not really represent hardware. Implement a new binding which can be embedded into any type of node on a bus to represent one switch device, and its links to other switches.

net: dsa: add Broadcom tag RX/TX handler

2014-08-28T05:59:40+00:00

Add support for the 4-bytes Broadcom tag that built-in switches such as the Starfighter 2 might insert when receiving packets, or that we need to insert while targetting specific switch ports. We use a fake local EtherType value for this 4-bytes switch tag: ETH_P_BRCMTAG to make sure we can assign DSA-specific network operations within the DSA drivers.

dsa: Allow core and drivers to be built as modules

2011-11-26T19:48:16+00:00

Change the kconfig types to tristate and adjust the condition for declaring net_device::dsa_ptr to allow for this. Adjust the makefile so that if NET_DSA_MV88E6123_61_65=y and NET_DSA_MV88E6131=m or vice versa then both drivers are built-in. We could leave these options as bool and make NET_DSA_MV88E6XXX a user-selected option, but that would break existing configurations. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

mv88e6xxx: Combine mv88e6131 and mv88e612_61_65 drivers

2011-11-26T19:48:15+00:00

These drivers share a lot of code, so if we make them modular they should be built into the same module. Therefore, link them together and merge their respective module init and exit functions. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
