On year ago Rob Herring wanted to remove the data pointer from the
device_node structure[1]. The mvneta driver seemed to be the only one
which used (abused ?) it. However, the proposal of Rob to remove this
pointer from the driver introduced a regression, and I tested and fixed an
alternative way, but it was never submitted as a proper patch.
Now here it is: Instead of using the device_node structure ->data
pointer, we store the BM private data as the driver data of the BM
platform_device. The core mvneta code can retrieve it by doing a lookup
on which platform_device corresponds to the BM device tree node using
of_find_device_by_node(), and get its driver data

The mvneta Ethernet driver is used on a few different Marvell SoCs.
Some SoCs have per cpu interrupts for Ethernet events. Some SoCs have
a single interrupt, independent of the CPU. The driver handles this by
having a per CPU napi structure when there are per CPU interrupts, and
a global napi structure when there is a single interrupt.
When the napi core calls mvneta_poll(), it passes the napi
instance. This was not being propagated through the call chain, and
instead the per-cpu napi instance was passed to napi_gro_receive()
call. This breaks when there is a single global napi instance.

mlxsw: Support DSCP prioritization and rewrite
Petr says:
On ingress, a network device such as a switch assigns to packets
priority based on various criteria. Common options include interpreting
PCP and DSCP fields according to user configuration. When a packet
egresses the switch, a reverse process may rewrite PCP and/or DSCP
headers according to packet priority.
So far, mlxsw has supported prioritization based on PCP (802.1p priority
tag). This patch set introduces support for prioritization based on
DSCP, and DSCP rewrite.
To configure the DSCP-to-priority maps, the user is expected to invoke
ieee_setapp and ieee_delapp DCBNL ops, e.g. by using lldptool:
To decide whether or not to pay attention to DSCP values, the Spectrum
switch recognize a per-port configuration of trust level. Until the
first APP rule is added for a given port, this port's trust level stays
at PCP, meaning that PCP is used for packet prioritization. With the
first DSCP APP rule, the port is configured to trust DSCP instead, and
it stays there until all DSCP APP rules are removed again.
Besides the DSCP (value 5) selector, another selector that plays into
packet prioritization is Ethernet type (value 1) with PID of 0. Such APP
entries denote default priority[1]:
With this patch set, mlxsw uses these values to configure priority for
DSCP values not explicitly specified in DSCP APP map. In the future we
expect to also use this to configure default port priority for untagged
packets.
Access to DSCP-to-priority map, priority-to-DSCP map, and default
priority for a port is exposed through three new DCB helpers. Like the
already-existing dcb_ieee_getapp_mask() helper, these helpers operate in
terms of bitmaps, to support the arbitrary M:N mapping that the APP
rules allow. Such interface presents all the relevant information from
the APP database without necessitating exposition of iterators, locking
or other complex primitives. It is up to the driver to then digest the
mapping in a way that the device supports. In this patch set, mlxsw
resolves conflicts by favoring higher-numbered DSCP values and
priorities.
In this patchset:
- Patch #1 fixes a bug in DCB APP database management.
- Patch #2 adds the getters described above.
- Patches #3-#6 add Spectrum configuration registers.
- Patch #7 adds the mlxsw logic that configures the device according to
APP rules.
- Patch #8 adds a self-test. The test is added to the subdirectory
drivers/net/mlxsw. Even though it's not particularly specific to
mlxsw, it's not suitable for running on soft devices (which don't
support the ieee_getapp et.al.), and thus isn't a good fit for the
general net/forwarding directory.
