CPSW switchdev based driver which is operating in dual-emac mode by default, thus working as 2 individual network interfaces. The Switch mode can be enabled by configuring devlink driver parameter "switch_mode" to 1: devlink dev param set platform/48484000.switch \ name switch_mode value 1 cmode runtime This can be done regardless of the state of Port's netdevs - UP/DOWN, but Port's netdev devices have to be UP before joining the bridge to avoid overwriting of bridge configuration as CPSW switch driver completely reloads its configuration when first Port changes its state to UP. When the both interfaces joined the bridge - CPSW switch driver will start marking packets with offload_fwd_mark flag unless "ale_bypass=0". All configuration is implemented via switchdev API and notifiers. Supported: - SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_PRE_BRIDGE_FLAGS - SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_BRIDGE_FLAGS: BR_MCAST_FLOOD - SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_STP_STATE - SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_VLAN - SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_MDB - SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_HOST_MDB Hence CPSW switchdev driver supports: - FDB offloading - MDB offloading - VLAN filtering and offloading - STP Signed-off-by: Ilias Apalodimas <ilias.apalodimas@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Grygorii Strashko <grygorii.strashko@ti.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
