Vivien Didelot says: ==================== net: dsa: setup stage When probing a DSA switch, there is basically two stages. The first stage is the parsing of the switch device, from either device tree or platform data. It fetches the DSA tree to which it belongs, and validates its ports. The switch device is then added to the tree, and the second stage is called if this was the last switch of the tree. The second stage is the setup of the tree, which validates that the tree is complete, sets up the routing tables, the default CPU port for user ports, sets up the switch drivers and finally the master interfaces, which makes the whole switch fabric functional. This patch series covers the second setup stage. The setup and teardown of a switch tree have been separated into logical steps, and the probing of a switch now simply parses and adds a switch to a tree. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
