Message-Id: <1427704836-8776-1-git-send-email-sfeldma@gmail.com> Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2015 01:40:18 -0700 From: sfeldma@...il.com To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: jiri@...nulli.us, roopa@...ulusnetworks.com, linux@...ck-us.net, f.fainelli@...il.com Subject: [PATCH net-next 00/18] switchdev: spring cleanup From: Scott Feldman <sfeldma@...il.com> The main theme of this patch set is to cleanup swdev in preparation for new features or fixes to be added soon. We have a pretty good idea now how to handle stacked drivers in swdev, but there where some loose ends. For example, if a set failed in the middle of walking the lower devs, we would leave the system in an undefined state...there was no way to recover back to the previous state. Speaking of sets, also recognize a pattern that most swdev API accesses are gets or sets of port attributes, so go ahead and make port attr get/set the central swdev API, and convert everything that is set-ish/get-ish to this new API. Features/fixes that should follow from this cleanup: - solve the duplicate pkt forwarding issue - get/set bridge attrs, like ageing_time, from/to device - get/set more bridge port attrs from/to device There are some rename cleanups tagging along at the end, to give swdev consistent naming. And finally, some much needed updates to the switchdev.txt documentation to hopefully capture the state-of-the-art of swdev. Hopefully, we can do a better job keeping this document up-to-date. Tested with rocker, of course, to make sure nothing functional broke. There are a couple minor tweaks to DSA code for getting switch ID and setting STP updates to use new API, but not expecting amy breakage there.
