Subject: RE: repository for switch hardware info

Here is what's available publically for QCA devices.

AR8xxx/QCA8xxx (Ethernet xMII/MDIO based hardware switch widely deployed in home gateways):
- open source vendor SDK is available here: https://www.codeaurora.org/cgit/quic/qsdk/oss/lklm/qca-ssdk/ (configuration command can be found in https://www.codeaurora.org/cgit/quic/qsdk/oss/ssdk-shell/) 
- same devices (AR8xxx/QCA8xxx) are also supported by OpenWrt using a swconfig based driver: http://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt.git;a=tree;f=target/linux/generic/files/drivers/net/phy;h=ceb9d8c46e7ffb936e3e56dcf77a0253fa5b3468;hb=HEAD (files ar8216.c & ar8327.c)

IPQ806x (NPU we talked about during netdev01):
- code is available here: https://www.codeaurora.org/cgit/quic/qsdk/
Driver is split between oss/lklm/nss-drv, oss/lklm/nss-gmac and oss/lklm/qca-nss-ecm.

Both hardware can easily be found in home routers on the market today.

Thanks,
Mathieu

There are various vendor switch SDKs (some opensource, some not),
vendor switch hardware specification documents, etc. scattered all
over the place.

I was about to start doing my own research trying to find all of this
crap, but what a complete waste of time that's going to be if other
developers embark upon the same task starting from scratch just as I
would.

Therefore I'd like people to reply to this email if they know of the
location of such resources.  Just give me the URL and I'll maintain
it all on a public web page somewhere anyone can refer to or send me
updates for.

Thanks!
