Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== DSA with VLAN filtering and offloading masters This series attempts to make DSA VLANs work in the presence of a master interface that is: - filtering, so it drops VLANs that aren't explicitly added to its filter list - offloading, so the old assumptions in the tagging code about there being a VLAN tag in the skb are not necessarily true anymore. For more context: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200910150738.mwhh2i6j2qgacqev@skbuf/ This probably marks the beginning of a series of patches in which DSA starts paying much more attention to its upper interfaces, not only for VLAN purposes but also for address filtering and for management of the CPU flooding domain. There was a comment from Florian on whether we could factor some of the mlxsw logic into some common functionality, but it doesn't look so. This seems bound to be open-coded, but frankly there isn't a lot to it. Changes in v2: Applied Florian's cosmetic suggestion in patch 4/9. ==================== 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.
