selftests: tc_actions: don't dump 2MB of \0 to stdout
Since we started running selftests in NIPA we have been seeing
tc_actions.sh generate a soft lockup warning on ~20% of the runs.
On the pre-netdev foundation setup it was actually a missed irq
splat from the console. Now it's either that or a lockup.
I initially suspected a socket locking issue since the test
is exercising local loopback with act_mirred.
After hours of staring at this I noticed in strace that ncat
when -o $file is specified _both_ saves the output to the file
and still prints it to stdout. Because the file being sent
is constructed with:
the data printed is all \0. Most terminals don't display nul
characters (and neither does vng output capture save them).
But QEMU's serial console still has to poke them thru which
is very slow and causes the lockup (if the file is >600kB).
Replace the '-o $file' with '> $file'. This speeds the test up
from 2m20s to 18s on debug kernels, and prevents the warnings.

dpll: zl3073x: Fix ref frequency setting
The frequency for an input reference is computed as:
frequency = freq_base * freq_mult * freq_ratio_m / freq_ratio_n
Before commit 5bc02b190a3fb ("dpll: zl3073x: Cache all reference
properties in zl3073x_ref"), zl3073x_dpll_input_pin_frequency_set()
explicitly wrote 1 to both the REF_RATIO_M and REF_RATIO_N hardware
registers whenever a new frequency was set. This ensured the FEC ratio
was always reset to 1:1 alongside the new base/multiplier values.
The refactoring in that commit introduced zl3073x_ref_freq_set() to
update the cached ref state, but this helper only sets freq_base and
freq_mult without resetting freq_ratio_m and freq_ratio_n to 1. Because
zl3073x_ref_state_set() uses a compare-and-write strategy, unchanged
ratio fields are never written to the hardware. If the device previously
had non-unity FEC ratio values, they remain in effect after a frequency
change, resulting in an incorrect computed frequency.
Explicitly set freq_ratio_m and freq_ratio_n to 1 in zl3073x_ref_freq_set()
to restore the original behavior.

which used to trigger said warning. For more information please check

====================
selftests: forwarding: bridge_mdb_max: add tests for mdb_n_entries warning
Recently we were able to trigger a warning in the mdb_n_entries counting
code. Add tests that exercise different ways which used to trigger that
warning.
net: bridge: mcast: always update mdb_n_entries for vlan contexts
syzbot triggered a warning[1] about the number of mdb entries in a context.
It turned out that there are multiple ways to trigger that warning today
(some got added during the years), the root cause of the problem is that
the increase is done conditionally, and over the years these different
conditions increased so there were new ways to trigger the warning, that is
to do a decrease which wasn't paired with a previous increase.
For example one way to trigger it is with flush:
$ ip l add br0 up type bridge vlan_filtering 1 mcast_snooping 1
$ ip l add dumdum up master br0 type dummy
$ bridge mdb add dev br0 port dumdum grp 239.0.0.1 permanent vid 1
$ ip link set dev br0 down
$ ip link set dev br0 type bridge mcast_vlan_snooping 1
^^^^ this will enable snooping, but will not update mdb_n_entries
because in __br_multicast_enable_port_ctx() we check !netif_running
$ bridge mdb flush dev br0
^^^ this will trigger the warning because it will delete the pg which
we added above, which will try to decrease mdb_n_entries
Fix the problem by removing the conditional increase and always keep the
count up-to-date while the vlan exists. In order to do that we have to
first initialize it on port-vlan context creation, and then always increase
or decrease the value regardless of mcast options. To keep the current
behaviour we have to enforce the mdb limit only if the context is port's or
if the port-vlan's mcast snooping is enabled.

Commit 8c14f9c70327 ("ARCNET: add com20020 PCI IDs with metadata")
converted the com20020-pci driver to use a card info structure instead
of a single flag mask in driver_data. However, it failed to take into
account that in the original code, driver_data of 0 indicates a card
with no special flags, not a card that should not have any card info
structure. This introduced a null pointer dereference when cards with
no flags were probed.
Commit bd6f1fd5d33d ("net: arcnet: com20020: Fix null-ptr-deref in

with no driver_data instead of resolving the problem at its source.

2.5Mbit cards that does not set any flags and using it if no
driver_data is present.

Patch 1 fixes `child_ns_mode` being always hardcoded to "global" for new

Patch 2 prevents a "local" namespace from switching `child_ns_mode` to

and access global CIDs.

vsock: prevent child netns mode switch from local to global
A "local" namespace can change its `child_ns_mode` sysctl to "global",
allowing nested namespaces to access global CIDs. This can be exploited
by an unprivileged user who gained CAP_NET_ADMIN through a user
namespace.
Prevent this by rejecting writes that attempt to set `child_ns_mode` to
"global" when the current namespace's mode is "local".

When a new network namespace is created, vsock_net_init() correctly
initializes the namespace's mode by reading the parent's `child_ns_mode`
via vsock_net_child_mode(). However, the `child_ns_mode` of the new
namespace was always hardcoded to VSOCK_NET_MODE_GLOBAL, regardless of
its own mode.
This means that if a parent namespace has `child_ns_mode` set to "local",
the child namespace correctly gets mode "local", but its `child_ns_mode`
is reset to "global". As a result, further nested namespaces will
incorrectly get mode "global" instead of inheriting "local", breaking
the expected propagation of the mode through nested namespaces.
Fix this by initializing `child_ns_mode` to the namespace's own mode,
so the setting propagates correctly through all levels of nesting.

The max_adj field in ptp_clock_info tells userspace how much the PHC
clock frequency can be adjusted. ptp4l reads this and will never request

On both sparx5 and lan969x the clock offset may never converge because
the servo needs a frequency correction larger than the current max_adj

The hardware has no inherent max adjustment limit; frequency correction

When IPv6 route is created with RTA_NH_ID, struct fib6_info

ipv6: ioam: fix heap buffer overflow in __ioam6_fill_trace_data()
On the receive path, __ioam6_fill_trace_data() uses trace->nodelen
to decide how much data to write for each node. It trusts this field
as-is from the incoming packet, with no consistency check against
trace->type (the 24-bit field that tells which data items are
present). A crafted packet can set nodelen=0 while setting type bits
0-21, causing the function to write ~100 bytes past the allocated
region (into skb_shared_info), which corrupts adjacent heap memory
and leads to a kernel panic.
Add a shared helper ioam6_trace_compute_nodelen() in ioam6.c to
derive the expected nodelen from the type field, and use it:
- in ioam6_iptunnel.c (send path, existing validation) to replace
the open-coded computation;
- in exthdrs.c (receive path, ipv6_hop_ioam) to drop packets whose
nodelen is inconsistent with the type field, before any data is
written.
Per RFC 9197, bits 12-21 are each short (4-octet) fields, so they
are included in IOAM6_MASK_SHORT_FIELDS (changed from 0xff100000 to
0xff1ffc00).

When the PCA-200E or SBA-200E adapter is being detached, the fore200e

or pending, leading to use-after-free bug when the already freed fore200e

One of the race conditions can occur as follows:

fore200e_shutdown() | tasklet_schedule()

Fix this by ensuring tx_tasklet or rx_tasklet is properly canceled before
the fore200e is released. Add tasklet_kill() in fore200e_shutdown() to
synchronize with any pending or running tasklets. Moreover, since
fore200e_reset() could prevent further interrupts or data transfers,
the tasklet_kill() should be placed after fore200e_reset() to prevent
the tasklet from being rescheduled in fore200e_interrupt(). Finally,
it only needs to do tasklet_kill() when the fore200e state is greater

ovpn: set sk_user_data before overriding callbacks
During initialization, we override socket callbacks and set sk_user_data
to an ovpn_socket instance. Currently, these two operations are
decoupled: callbacks are overridden before sk_user_data is set. While
existing callbacks perform safety checks for NULL or non-ovpn
sk_user_data, this condition causes a "half-formed" state where valid
packets arriving during attachment trigger error logs (e.g., "invoked on
non ovpn socket").
Set sk_user_data before overriding the callbacks so that it can be
accessed safely from them. Since we already check that the socket has no
sk_user_data before setting it, this remains safe even if an interrupt
accesses the socket after sk_user_data is set but before the callbacks
are overridden.
This also requires initializing all protocol-specific fields (such as
tcp_tx_work and peer links) before calling ovpn_socket_attach, ensuring
the ovpn_socket is fully formed before it becomes visible to any
callback.

"Core & protocols:
- A significant effort all around the stack to guide the compiler to
make the right choice when inlining code, to avoid unneeded calls
for small helper and stack canary overhead in the fast-path.
This generates better and faster code with very small or no text
size increases, as in many cases the call generated more code than
the actual inlined helper.
- Extend AccECN implementation so that is now functionally complete,
also allow the user-space enabling it on a per network namespace
basis.
- Add support for memory providers with large (above 4K) rx buffer.
Paired with hw-gro, larger rx buffer sizes reduce the number of
buffers traversing the stack, dincreasing single stream CPU usage
by up to ~30%.
- Do not add HBH header to Big TCP GSO packets. This simplifies the
RX path, the TX path and the NIC drivers, and is possible because
user-space taps can now interpret correctly such packets without
the HBH hint.
- Allow IPv6 routes to be configured with a gateway address that is
resolved out of a different interface than the one specified,
aligning IPv6 to IPv4 behavior.
- Multi-queue aware sch_cake. This makes it possible to scale the
rate shaper of sch_cake across multiple CPUs, while still enforcing
a single global rate on the interface.
- Add support for the nbcon (new buffer console) infrastructure to

that are safer in crash scenarios.
- Improve the TCP ipv6 output path to cache the flow information,
saving cpu cycles, reducing cache line misses and stack use.
- Improve netfilter packet tracker to resolve clashes for most
protocols, avoiding unneeded drops on rare occasions.
- Add IP6IP6 tunneling acceleration to the flowtable infrastructure.
- Reduce tcp socket size by one cache line.
- Notify neighbour changes atomically, avoiding inconsistencies

- Add vsock namespace support, allowing complete isolation of vsocks

Merge tag 'driver-core-7.0-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core
Pull driver core updates from Danilo Krummrich:
"Bus:
- Ensure bus->match() is consistently called with the device lock
held
- Improve type safety of bus_find_device_by_acpi_dev()
Devtmpfs:
- Parse 'devtmpfs.mount=' boot parameter with kstrtoint() instead of
simple_strtoul()
- Avoid sparse warning by making devtmpfs_context_ops static
IOMMU:
- Do not register the qcom_smmu_tbu_driver in arm_smmu_device_probe()
MAINTAINERS:
- Add the new driver-core mailing list (driver-core@lists.linux.dev)
to all relevant entries
- Add missing tree location for "FIRMWARE LOADER (request_firmware)"
- Add driver-model documentation to the "DRIVER CORE" entry
- Add missing driver-core maintainers to the "AUXILIARY BUS" entry
Misc:
- Change return type of attribute_container_register() to void; it
has always been infallible
- Do not export sysfs_change_owner(), sysfs_file_change_owner() and
device_change_owner()
- Move devres_for_each_res() from the public devres header to
drivers/base/base.h
- Do not use a static struct device for the faux bus; allocate it
dynamically
Revocable:
- Patches for the revocable synchronization primitive have been
scheduled for v7.0-rc1, but have been reverted as they need some
more refinement
Rust:
- Device:
- Support dev_printk on all device types, not just the core Device
struct; remove now-redundant .as_ref() calls in dev_* print
calls
- Devres:
- Introduce an internal reference count in Devres<T> to avoid a
deadlock condition in case of (indirect) nesting
- DMA:
- Allow drivers to tune the maximum DMA segment size via
dma_set_max_seg_size()
- I/O:
- Introduce the concept of generic I/O backends to handle
different kinds of device shared memory through a common
interface.
This enables higher-level concepts such as register
abstractions, I/O slices, and field projections to be built
generically on top.
In a first step, introduce the Io, IoCapable<T>, and IoKnownSize
trait hierarchy for sharing a common interface supporting offset
validation and bound-checking logic between I/O backends.
- Refactor MMIO to use the common I/O backend infrastructure
- Misc:
- Add __rust_helper annotations to C helpers for inlining into
Rust code
- Use "kernel vertical" style for imports
- Replace kernel::c_str! with C string literals
- Update ARef imports to use sync::aref
- Use pin_init::zeroed() for struct auxiliary_device_id and
debugfs file_operations initialization
- Use LKMM atomic types in debugfs doc-tests
- Various minor comment and documentation fixes
- PCI:
- Implement PCI configuration space accessors using the common I/O
backend infrastructure
- Document pci::Bar device endianness assumptions
- SoC:
- Abstractions for struct soc_device and struct soc_device_attribute
- Sample driver for soc::Device"

Pull PCI updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
"Enumeration:
- Don't try to enable Extended Tags on VFs since that bit is Reserved
and causes misleading log messages (Håkon Bugge)
- Initialize Endpoint Read Completion Boundary to match Root Port,
regardless of ACPI _HPX (Håkon Bugge)
- Apply _HPX PCIe Setting Record only to AER configuration, and only
when OS owns PCIe hotplug but not AER, to avoid clobbering Extended
Tag and Relaxed Ordering settings (Håkon Bugge)
Resource management:
- Move CardBus code to setup-cardbus.c and only build it when
CONFIG_CARDBUS is set (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Fix bridge window alignment with optional resources, where
additional alignment requirement was previously lost (Ilpo
Järvinen)
- Stop over-estimating bridge window size since they are now assigned
without any gaps between them (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Increase resource MAX_IORES_LEVEL to avoid /proc/iomem flattening
for nested bridges and endpoints (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Add pbus_mem_size_optional() to handle sizes of optional resources
(SR-IOV VF BARs, expansion ROMs, bridge windows) (Ilpo Järvinen)
- Don't claim disabled bridge windows to avoid spurious claim
failures (Ilpo Järvinen)
Driver binding:
- Fix device reference leak in pcie_port_remove_service() (Uwe
Kleine-König)
- Move pcie_port_bus_match() and pcie_port_bus_type to PCIe-specific
portdrv.c (Uwe Kleine-König)
- Convert portdrv to use pcie_port_bus_type.probe() and .remove()
callbacks so .probe() and .remove() can eventually be removed from
struct device_driver (Uwe Kleine-König)
Error handling:
- Clear stale errors on reporting agents upon probe so they don't
look like recent errors (Lukas Wunner)
- Add generic RAS tracepoint for hotplug events (Shuai Xue)
- Add RAS tracepoint for link speed changes (Shuai Xue)
Power management:
- Avoid redundant delay on transition from D3hot to D3cold if the
device was already in D3hot (Brian Norris)
- Prevent runtime suspend until devices are fully initialized to
avoid saving incompletely configured device state (Brian Norris)
Power control:
- Add power_on/off callbacks with generic signature to pwrseq,
tc9563, and slot drivers so they can be used by pwrctrl core
(Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Add PCIe M.2 connector support to the slot pwrctrl driver
(Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Switch to pwrctrl interfaces to create, destroy, and power on/off
devices, calling them from host controller drivers instead of the
PCI core (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- Drop qcom .assert_perst() callbacks since this is now done by the
controller driver instead of the pwrctrl driver (Manivannan
Sadhasivam)
Virtualization:
- Remove an incorrect unlock in pci_slot_trylock() error handling
(Jinhui Guo)
- Lock the bridge device for slot reset (Keith Busch)
- Enable ACS after IOMMU configuration on OF platforms so ACS is
enabled an all devices; previously the first device enumerated
(typically a Root Port) didn't have ACS enabled (Manivannan
Sadhasivam)
- Disable ACS Source Validation for IDT 0x80b5 and 0x8090 switches to
work around hardware erratum; previously ACS SV was only
temporarily disabled, which worked for enumeration but not after
reset (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
Peer-to-peer DMA:
- Release per-CPU pgmap ref when vm_insert_page() fails to avoid hang
when removing the PCI device (Hou Tao)
- Remove incorrect p2pmem_alloc_mmap() warning about page refcount
(Hou Tao)
Endpoint framework:
- Add configfs sub-groups synchronously to avoid NULL pointer
dereference when racing with removal (Liu Song)
- Fix swapped parameters in pci_{primary/secondary}_epc_epf_unlink()
functions (Manikanta Maddireddy)
- Add DT binding and driver support for SA8255p Endpoint being
configured by firmware (Mrinmay Sarkar)
- Parse PERST# from all PCIe bridge nodes for future platforms that
will have PERST# in Switch Downstream Ports as well as in Root
Ports (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
Renesas RZ/G3S PCIe controller driver:
- Use pci_generic_config_write() since the writability provided by
the custom wrapper is unnecessary (Claudiu Beznea)
SOPHGO PCIe controller driver:
- Disable ASPM L0s and L1 on Sophgo 2044 PCIe Root Ports (Inochi
Amaoto)
Synopsys DesignWare PCIe controller driver:
- Extend PCI_FIND_NEXT_CAP() and PCI_FIND_NEXT_EXT_CAP() to return a
pointer to the preceding Capability, to allow removal of
Capabilities that are advertised but not fully implemented (Qiang
Yu)
- Remove MSI and MSI-X Capabilities in platforms that can't support
them, so the PCI core automatically falls back to INTx (Qiang Yu)
- Add ASPM L1.1 and L1.2 Substates context to debugfs ltssm_status
for drivers that support this (Shawn Lin)
- Skip PME_Turn_Off broadcast and L2/L3 transition during suspend if
link is not up to avoid an unnecessary timeout (Manivannan
Sadhasivam)
- Revert dw-rockchip, qcom, and DWC core changes that used link-up
IRQs to trigger enumeration instead of waiting for link to be up
because the PCI core doesn't allocate bus number space for
hierarchies that might be attached (Niklas Cassel)
- Make endpoint iATU entry for MSI permanent instead of programming
it dynamically, which is slow and racy with respect to other
concurrent traffic, e.g., eDMA (Koichiro Den)
- Use iMSI-RX MSI target address when possible to fix endpoints using
32-bit MSI (Shawn Lin)
- Allow DWC host controller driver probe to continue if device is not
found or found but inactive; only fail when there's an error with
the link (Manivannan Sadhasivam)
- For controllers like NXP i.MX6QP and i.MX7D, where LTSSM registers
are not accessible after PME_Turn_Off, simply wait 10ms instead of
polling for L2/L3 Ready (Richard Zhu)
- Use multiple iATU entries to map large bridge windows and DMA
ranges when necessary instead of failing (Samuel Holland)
- Add EPC dynamic_inbound_mapping feature bit for Endpoint
Controllers that can update BAR inbound address translation without
requiring EPF driver to clear/reset the BAR first, and advertise it
for DWC-based Endpoints (Koichiro Den)
- Add EPC subrange_mapping feature bit for Endpoint Controllers that
can map multiple independent inbound regions in a single BAR,
implement subrange mapping, advertise it for DWC-based Endpoints,
and add Endpoint selftests for it (Koichiro Den)
- Make resizable BARs work for Endpoint multi-PF configurations;
previously it only worked for PF 0 (Aksh Garg)
- Fix Endpoint non-PF 0 support for BAR configuration, ATU mappings,
and Address Match Mode (Aksh Garg)
- Set up iATU when ECAM is enabled; previously IO and MEM outbound
windows weren't programmed, and ECAM-related iATU entries weren't
restored after suspend/resume, so config accesses failed (Krishna
Chaitanya Chundru)
Miscellaneous:
- Use system_percpu_wq and WQ_PERCPU to explicitly request per-CPU
work so WQ_UNBOUND can eventually be removed (Marco Crivellari)"

- The percpu sheaves caching layer was introduced as opt-in in 6.18 and
now we enable it for all caches and remove the previous cpu (partial)
slab caching mechanism.
Besides the lower locking overhead and much more likely fastpath when
freeing, this removes the rather complicated code related to the cpu
slab lockless fastpaths (using this_cpu_try_cmpxchg128/64) and all
its complications for PREEMPT_RT or kmalloc_nolock().
The lockless slab freelist+counters update operation using
try_cmpxchg128/64 remains and is crucial for freeing remote NUMA
objects, and to allow flushing objects from sheaves to slabs mostly
without the node list_lock (Vlastimil Babka)
- Eliminate slabobj_ext metadata overhead when possible. Instead of
using kmalloc() to allocate the array for memcg and/or allocation
profiling tag pointers, use leftover space in a slab or per-object
padding due to alignment (Harry Yoo)

- Rework the rescuer to process work items one-by-one instead of
slurping all pending work items in a single pass.
As there is only one rescuer per workqueue, a single long-blocking
work item could cause high latency for all tasks queued behind it,
even after memory pressure is relieved and regular kworkers become
available to service them.
- Add CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_WQ_STALL_PANIC build-time option and
workqueue.panic_on_stall_time parameter for time-based stall panic,
giving systems more control over workqueue stall handling.

sched/mmcid: Don't assume CID is CPU owned on mode switch
Shinichiro reported a KASAN UAF, which is actually an out of bounds access
in the MMCID management code.
CPU0 CPU1
T1 runs in userspace
T0: fork(T4) -> Switch to per CPU CID mode
fixup() set MM_CID_TRANSIT on T1/CPU1
T4 exit()
T3 exit()
T2 exit()
T1 exit() switch to per task mode
---> Out of bounds access.
As T1 has not scheduled after T0 set the TRANSIT bit, it exits with the
TRANSIT bit set. sched_mm_cid_remove_user() clears the TRANSIT bit in
the task and drops the CID, but it does not touch the per CPU storage.
That's functionally correct because a CID is only owned by the CPU when
the ONCPU bit is set, which is mutually exclusive with the TRANSIT flag.
Now sched_mm_cid_exit() assumes that the CID is CPU owned because the
prior mode was per CPU. It invokes mm_drop_cid_on_cpu() which clears the
not set ONCPU bit and then invokes clear_bit() with an insanely large
bit number because TRANSIT is set (bit 29).
Prevent that by actually validating that the CID is CPU owned in
mm_drop_cid_on_cpu().

Although 1394 OHCI specification does not impose any restriction on
the memory size dedicated to these DMA contexts, 1394 OHCI PCI driver
allocates pages for convenience when mapping them into either kernel
space or userspace VMA. The driver previously used dma_alloc_pages()
for both page allocation and mapping creation, even though this
kernel API is rarely used. Following discussions questioning the
page-oriented kernel API in the DMA layer, the driver has been
refactored to avoid using this API. In addition, the use of private
members in the allocated pages has been removed following
long-standing concern.
- Allocate variable-sized buffer for isochronous context header
1394 OHCI PCI driver previously allocated a single page for
isochronous context header. As a result, the buffer size for the
header was fixed to PAGE_SIZE, which imposed a limitation on IEC
61883-1/6 packet streaming engine. Consequently, the ALSA PCM devices
provided by drivers for audio and music units in IEEE 1394 bus were
constrained in the maximum size of buffer period (64 ms in most
cases). This limitation is resolved by dynamically allocating the
header buffer with an arbitrary size.

different data streams.
This is very similar to the case where multiple devices are grouped

cleanup and feature improvement, and a reasonable collection of new

net: macb: Fix tx/rx malfunction after phy link down and up
In commit 99537d5c476c ("net: macb: Relocate mog_init_rings() callback
from macb_mac_link_up() to macb_open()"), the mog_init_rings() callback
was moved from macb_mac_link_up() to macb_open() to resolve a deadlock
issue. However, this change introduced a tx/rx malfunction following
phy link down and up events. The issue arises from a mismatch between
the software queue->tx_head, queue->tx_tail, queue->rx_prepared_head,
and queue->rx_tail values and the hardware's internal tx/rx queue
pointers.
According to the Zynq UltraScale TRM [1], when tx/rx is disabled, the
internal tx queue pointer resets to the value in the tx queue base
address register, while the internal rx queue pointer remains unchanged.
The following is quoted from the Zynq UltraScale TRM:
When transmit is disabled, with bit [3] of the network control register
set low, the transmit-buffer queue pointer resets to point to the address
indicated by the transmit-buffer queue base address register. Disabling
receive does not have the same effect on the receive-buffer queue
pointer.
Additionally, there is no need to reset the RBQP and TBQP registers in a
phy event callback. Therefore, move macb_init_buffers() to macb_open().
In a phy link up event, the only required action is to reset the tx
software head and tail pointers to align with the hardware's behavior.

net: dsa: initial support for MaxLinear MxL862xx switches
This series adds very basic DSA support for the MaxLinear MxL86252
(5x 2500Base-T PHYs) and MxL86282 (8x 2500Base-T PHYs) switches.
In addition to the 2.5G TP ports both switches also come with two
SerDes interfaces which can be used either to connect external PHYs
or SFP cages, or as CPU port when using the switch with this DSA driver.
MxL862xx integrates a firmware running on an embedded processor (based on
Zephyr RTOS). Host interaction uses a simple netlink-like API transported
over MDIO/MMD.
This series includes only what's needed to pass traffic between user
ports and the CPU port: relayed MDIO to internal PHYs, basic port
enable/disable, and CPU-port special tagging.
The SerDes interface of the CPU port is automatically configured by the
switch after reset using a board-specific configuration stored together
with the firmware in the flash chip attached to the switch, so no action
is needed from the driver to setup the interface mode of the CPU port.
Also MAC settings of the PHY ports are automatically configured, which
means the driver works fine with phylink_mac_ops being all no-op stubs.
Multiple follow up series will bring support for setting up the other
SerDes PCS interface (ie. not used for the CPU port), bridge, VLAN, ...
offloading, and support for using an 802.1Q-based special tag instead of
the proprietary 8-byte tag.

net: dsa: add basic initial driver for MxL862xx switches
Add very basic DSA driver for MaxLinear's MxL862xx switches.
In contrast to previous MaxLinear switches the MxL862xx has a built-in
processor that runs a sophisticated firmware based on Zephyr RTOS.
Interaction between the host and the switch hence is organized using a
software API of that firmware rather than accessing hardware registers
directly.
Add descriptions of the most basic firmware API calls to access the
built-in MDIO bus hosting the 2.5GE PHYs, basic port control as well as
setting up the CPU port.
Implement a very basic DSA driver using that API which is sufficient to
get packets flowing between the user ports and the CPU port.
The firmware offers all features one would expect from a modern switch
hardware, they are going to be added one by one in follow-up patch
series.
