> The mv88e6xxx driver currently uses a mv88e6xxx_vtu_get wrapper to get a > single entry and uses a boolean to eventually initialize a fresh one. > > However the fresh entry is only needed in one place and mv88e6xxx_vtu_getnext > is simple enough to call it directly. Doing so makes the code easier to read, > especially for the return code expected by switchdev to honor software VLANs. > > In addition to not loading the VTU again when an entry is already correctly > programmed, this also allows to avoid programming the broadcast entries > again when updating a port's membership, from e.g. tagged to untagged. > > This patch series removes the mv88e6xxx_vtu_get wrapper in favor of direct > calls to mv88e6xxx_vtu_getnext, and also renames the _mv88e6xxx_port_vlan_add > and _mv88e6xxx_port_vlan_del helpers using an old underscore prefix convention. > > In case the port's membership is already correctly programmed in hardware, > the following debug message may be printed: > > [ 745.989884] mv88e6085 2188000.ethernet-1:00: p4: already a member of VLAN 42
Series applied, thanks Vivien.
