Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== Generic adjustment for flow dissector in DSA This is the v2 of a series initially submitted in May: https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg651866.html The end goal is to get rid of the unintuitive code for the flow dissector that currently exists in the taggers. It can all be replaced by a single, common function. Some background work needs to be done for that. Especially the ocelot driver poses some problems, since it has a different tag length between RX and TX, and I didn't want to make DSA aware of that, since I could instead make the tag lengths equal. Changes in v3: - Added an optimization (08/15) that makes the generic case not need to call the .flow_dissect function pointer. Basically .flow_dissect now currently only exists for sja1105. - Moved the .promisc_on_master property to the tagger structure. - Added the .tail_tag property to the tagger structure. - Disabled "suppresscc = all" from my .gitconfig. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
