Florian Fainelli says: ==================== net: dsa: Multi-CPU ground work (v4) This patch series prepares the ground for adding mutliple CPU port support to DSA, and starts by removing redundant pieces of information such as master_netdev which is cpu_dp->ethernet. Finally drivers are moved away from directly accessing ds->dst->cpu_dp and use appropriate helper functions. Note that if you have Device Tree blobs/platform configurations that are currently listing multiple CPU ports, the proposed behavior in dsa_ds_get_cpu_dp() will be to return the last bit set in ds->cpu_port_mask. Future plans include: - making dst->cpu_dp a flexible data structure (array, list, you name it) - having the ability for drivers to return a default/preferred CPU port (if necessary) Changes in v4: - fixed build warning with NETPOLL enabled Changes in v3: - removed the last patch since it causes problems with bcm_sf2/b53 in a dual-CPU case (root cause known, proper fix underway) - removed dsa_ds_get_cpu_dp() Changes in v2: - added Reviewed-by tags - assign port->cpu_dp earlier before ops->setup() has run ==================== 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.
