Hi Florian,

Sorry, I am having trouble understanding what you mean in the
paragraph I quoted above (and paragraphs afterwards).

eth0 and eth1 are interfaces created by an ethernet driver.
wlan0 is an interface created by wireless driver.
wifi is a slave interface created by DSA for port 5 on the switch.
eth1 is DSA slave or a DSA master connected to port 5?

How does DSA handle two interfaces with same reg property?
