+DPAA2 Switch driver
+===================
+
+:Copyright: |copy| 2021 NXP
+
+The DPAA2 Switch driver probes on the Datapath Switch (DPSW) object which can
+be instantiated on the following DPAA2 SoCs and their variants: LS2088A and
+LX2160A.
+
+The driver uses the switch device driver model and exposes each switch port as
+a network interface, which can be included in a bridge or used as a standalone
+interface. Traffic switched between ports is offloaded into the hardware.
+
+The DPSW can have ports connected to DPNIs or to DPMACs for external access.

+Creating an Ethernet Switch
+===========================
+
+The dpaa2-switch driver probes on DPSW devices found on the fsl-mc bus. These
+devices can be either created statically through the boot time configuration
+file - DataPath Layout (DPL) - or at runtime using the DPAA2 object APIs
+(incorporated already into the restool userspace tool).
+
+At the moment, the dpaa2-switch driver imposes the following restrictions on
+the DPSW object that it will probe:
+
+ * The maximum number of FDBs should be at least equal to the number of switch
+   interfaces. This is necessary so that separation of switch ports can be
+   done, ie when not under a bridge, each switch port will have its own FDB.
+
+ * Both the broadcast and flooding configuration should be per FDB. This
+   enables the driver to restrict the broadcast and flooding domains of each
+   FDB depending on the switch ports that are sharing it (aka are under the
+   same bridge).
+
+ * The control interface of the switch should not be disabled
+   (DPSW_OPT_CTRL_IF_DIS not passed as a create time option). Without the
+   control interface, the driver is not capable to provide proper Rx/Tx traffic
+   support on the switch port netdevices.
+
+Besides the configuration of the actual DPSW object, the dpaa2-switch driver
+will need the following DPAA2 objects:
+
+ * 1 DPMCP - A Management Command Portal object is needed for any interraction
+   with the MC firmware.
+
+ * 1 DPBP - A Buffer Pool is used for seeding buffers intended for the Rx path
+   on the control interface.
+
+ * Access to at least one DPIO object (Software Portal) is needed for any
+   enqueue/dequeue operation to be performed on the control interface queues.
+   The DPIO object will be shared, no need for a private one.
+
+Switching features
+==================
+
+The driver supports the configuration of L2 forwarding rules in hardware for
+port bridging as well as standalone usage of the independent switch interfaces.
+
+The hardware is not configurable with respect to VLAN awareness, thus any DPAA2 switch port should be used only in usecases with a VLAN aware bridge::
+
+        $ ip link add dev br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1
+
+        $ ip link add dev br1 type bridge
+        $ ip link set dev ethX master br1
+        Error: fsl_dpaa2_switch: Cannot join a VLAN-unaware bridge
+
+Topology and loop detection through STP is supported when ``stp_state 1`` is used at bridge create ::
+
+        $ ip link add dev br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1 stp_state 1
+
+L2 FDB manipulation (add/delete/dump) is supported.
+
+HW FDB learning can be configured on each switch port independently through
+bridge commands. When the HW learning is disabled, a fast age procedure will be
+run and any previously learnt addresses will be removed.
+::
+
+        $ bridge link set dev ethX learning off
+        $ bridge link set dev ethX learning on
+
+Restricting the unknown unicast and multicast flooding domain is supported, but
+not independently of each other::
+
+        $ ip link set dev ethX type bridge_slave flood off mcast_flood off
+        $ ip link set dev ethX type bridge_slave flood off mcast_flood on
+        Error: fsl_dpaa2_switch: Cannot configure multicast flooding independently of unicast.
+
+Broadcast flooding on a switch port can be disabled/enabled through the brport sysfs::
+
+        $ echo 0 > /sys/bus/fsl-mc/devices/dpsw.Y/net/ethX/brport/broadcast_flood
+
+Offloads
+========
+
+Routing actions (redirect, trap, drop)
+--------------------------------------
+
+The DPAA2 switch is able to offload flow-based redirection of packets making
+use of ACL tables. Shared filter blocks are supported by sharing a single ACL
+table between multiple ports.
+
+The following flow keys are supported:
+
+ * Ethernet: dst_mac/src_mac
+ * IPv4: dst_ip/src_ip/ip_proto/tos
+ * VLAN: vlan_id/vlan_prio/vlan_tpid/vlan_dei
+ * L4: dst_port/src_port
+
+Also, the matchall filter can be used to redirect the entire traffic received
+on a port.
+
+As per flow actions, the following are supported:
+
+ * drop
+ * mirred egress redirect
+ * trap
+
+Each ACL entry (filter) can be setup with only one of the listed
+actions.
+
+A sorted single linked list is used to keep the ACL entries by their
+order of priority. When adding a new filter, this enables us to quickly
+ascertain if the new entry has the highest priority of the entire block
+or if we should make some space in the ACL table by increasing the
+priority of the filters already in the table.
+
+
+Example 1: send frames received on eth4 with a SA of 00:01:02:03:04:05 to the
+CPU::
+
+        $ tc qdisc add dev eth4 clsact
+        $ tc filter add dev eth4 ingress flower src_mac 00:01:02:03:04:05 skip_sw action trap
+
+Example 2: drop frames received on eth4 with VID 100 and PCP of 3::
+
+        $ tc filter add dev eth4 ingress protocol 802.1q flower skip_sw vlan_id 100 vlan_prio 3 action drop
+
+Example 3: redirect all frames received on eth4 to eth1::
+
+        $ tc filter add dev eth4 ingress matchall action mirred egress redirect dev eth1
+
+
+Example 4: Use a single shared filter block on both eth5 and eth6::
+
+        $ tc qdisc add dev eth5 ingress_block 1 clsact
+        $ tc qdisc add dev eth6 ingress_block 1 clsact
+        $ tc filter add block 1 ingress flower dst_mac 00:01:02:03:04:04 skip_sw action trap
