[PATCH net-next 0/5] net: ipqess: introduce Qualcomm IPQESS driver

[Romain Gantois]

Hello everyone,

This is a driver for the Qualcomm IPQ4019 Ethernet Switch Subsystem. The
IPQ4019 SoC integrates a modified version of the QCA8K Ethernet switch. One
major difference with the original switch IP is that port tags are passed
to the integrated Ethernet controller out-of-band.

My colleague Maxime Chevallier submitted several iterations of this driver
about a year ago, here is the latest one:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20221104174151.439008-1-maxime.chevallier@bootlin.com/

These series were rejected because they required adding out-of-band tagging
support to the DSA subsystem. Therefore, we rewrote the driver as a pure
switchdev module, which shares a common backend library with the current
QCA8K driver.

The main driver components are:
 - ipqess_switch.c which registers and configures the integrated switch
 - ipqess_port.c which creates net devices for each one of the front-facing
   ports.
 - ipqess_edma.c which handles the integrated EDMA Ethernet controller
   linked to the CPU port.
 - drivers/net/dsa/qca/qca8k-common.c which defines low-level ESS access
   methods common to this driver and the original DSA QCA8K driver.

Thanks to the people from Sartura for providing us hardware and working on
the base QCA8K driver, and to Maxime for his work on the EDMA code.

Best regards,

Romain
