Horatiu Vultur says: ==================== bridge: mrp: Add support for MRA role This patch series extends the MRP with the MRA role. A node that has the MRA role can behave as a MRM or as a MRC. In case there are multiple nodes in the topology that has the MRA role then only one node can behave as MRM and all the others need to be have as MRC. The node that has the higher priority(lower value) will behave as MRM. A node that has the MRA role and behaves as MRC, it just needs to forward the MRP_Test frames between the ring ports but also it needs to detect in case it stops receiving MRP_Test frames. In that case it would try to behave as MRM. v2: - add new patch that fixes sparse warnings - fix parsing of prio attribute ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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.
