Re: [PATCH net-next 2/4] net: dsa: pass bridge down to drivers

2016-02-12 9:09 GMT-08:00 Vivien Didelot [off-list ref]:

Some DSA drivers may or may not support multiple software bridges on top
of an hardware switch.

It is more convenient for them to access the bridge's net_device for
finer configuration.

Removing the need to craft and access a bitmask also simplifies the
code.

This patch changes the signature of bridge related functions, update DSA
drivers, and removes dsa_slave_br_port_mask.

This is the specific patch that depends on the patch you mention in
your cover letter, I applied it anyway, ignored the rejects in the
mv88e6xxx driver since I wanted to test bcm_sf2 only and the hardware
is still programmed the same way before and after:
