The dpaa2-ethsw supports only one Rx queue that is shared by all switch ports. This means that information about which port was the ingress port for a specific frame needs to be passed in metadata. In our case, the Flow Context (FLC) field from the frame descriptor holds this information. Besides the interface ID of the ingress port we also receive the virtual QDID of the port. Below is a visual description of the 64 bits of FLC. 63 47 31 15 0 +---------------------------------------------------+ | | | | | | RESERVED | IF_ID | RESERVED | IF QDID | | | | | | +---------------------------------------------------+ Because all switch ports share the same Rx and Tx conf queues, NAPI management takes into consideration when there is at least one switch interface open to enable the NAPI instance. The Rx path is common, for the most part, for both Rx and Tx conf with the mention that each of them has its own consume function of a frame descriptor. Dequeueing from a FQ, consuming dequeued store and also the NAPI poll function is common between both queues.

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.
