Maxime Chevallier 10fea26ce2 net: mvpp2: Add support for unicast filtering
Marvell PPv2 controller can be used to implement packet filtering based
on the destination MAC address. This is already used to implement
multicast filtering. This patch adds support for Unicast filtering.

Filtering is based on so-called "TCAM entries" to implement filtering.
Due to their limited number and the fact that these are also used for
other purposes, we reserve 80 entries for both unicast and multicast
filters. On top of the broadcast address, and each interface's own MAC
address, we reserve 25 entries per port, 4 for unicast filters, 21 for
multicast.

Whenever unicast or multicast range for one port is full, the filtering
is disabled and port goes into promiscuous mode for the given type of
addresses.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
