The CPSW switchdev driver inherited fix from commit 9421c9015047 ("net:
ethernet: ti: cpsw: fix min eth packet size") which changes min TX packet
size to 64bytes (VLAN_ETH_ZLEN, excluding ETH_FCS). It was done to fix HW
packed drop issue when packets are sent from Host to the port with PVID and
un-tagging enabled. Unfortunately this breaks some other non-switch
specific use-cases, like:
- [1] CPSW port as DSA CPU port with DSA-tag applied at the end of the
packet
- [2] Some industrial protocols, which expects min TX packet size 60Bytes
(excluding FCS).
Fix it by configuring min TX packet size depending on driver mode
- 60Bytes (ETH_ZLEN) for multi mac (dual-mac) mode
- 64Bytes (VLAN_ETH_ZLEN) for switch mode
and update it during driver mode change and annotate with
READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() as it can be read by napi while writing.

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.
