It comes with two drivers, one for Broadcom BCM53xx aka Roboswitch and a simulation/fake one to help developpers. These patches have been used in OpenWrt since 2008 to drive various Ethernet switches commonly found in small home and office wireless routers. The documentation part of the patch explains why this solution was developped in contrast to using DSA, user-space or something else deeply in details, but to summarize: - DSA is Marvell centric and messes up with the actual Ethernet frames, its control path is scattered around bridge, ethtool and iproute... - swconfig is focused on providing a standard control path for Ethernet switches out there from $vendor and is extensible without core kernel changes and user-space changes too thanks to its netlink interface Florian Fainelli (3): net: phy: add Generic Netlink Ethernet switch configuration API tools: add Generic Netlink switch configuration tool net: phy: add fake switch driver Jonas Gorski (1): net: phy: add Broadcom B53 switch driver Documentation/networking/swconfig.txt | 162 ++++ MAINTAINERS | 11 + drivers/net/phy/Kconfig | 16 + drivers/net/phy/Makefile | 3 + drivers/net/phy/b53/Kconfig | 25 + drivers/net/phy/b53/Makefile | 8 + drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_common.c | 1336 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_mdio.c | 425 +++++++++++ drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_phy_fixup.c | 55 ++ drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_priv.h | 282 +++++++ drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_regs.h | 311 ++++++++ drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_spi.c | 329 ++++++++ drivers/net/phy/swconfig-hwsim.c | 230 ++++++ drivers/net/phy/swconfig.c | 1078 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/linux/platform_data/b53.h | 32 + include/linux/swconfig.h | 180 +++++ include/uapi/linux/Kbuild | 1 + include/uapi/linux/swconfig.h | 103 +++ tools/Makefile | 10 +- tools/swconfig/.gitignore | 2 + tools/swconfig/Makefile | 15 + tools/swconfig/cli.c | 328 ++++++++ tools/swconfig/swlib.c | 786 +++++++++++++++++++ tools/swconfig/swlib.h | 244 ++++++ 24 files changed, 5971 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 Documentation/networking/swconfig.txt create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/b53/Kconfig create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/b53/Makefile create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_common.c create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_mdio.c create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_phy_fixup.c create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_priv.h create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_regs.h create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/b53/b53_spi.c create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/swconfig-hwsim.c create mode 100644 drivers/net/phy/swconfig.c create mode 100644 include/linux/platform_data/b53.h create mode 100644 include/linux/swconfig.h create mode 100644 include/uapi/linux/swconfig.h create mode 100644 tools/swconfig/.gitignore create mode 100644 tools/swconfig/Makefile create mode 100644 tools/swconfig/cli.c create mode 100644 tools/swconfig/swlib.c create mode 100644 tools/swconfig/swlib.h -- 1.8.3.2 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
