Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 2/4] bridge: mrp: Add 'enum br_mrp_hw_support'
Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2021 21:52:39 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210127205241.2864728-3-horatiu.vultur@microchip.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210127205241.2864728-1-horatiu.vultur@microchip.com>
Add the enum br_mrp_hw_support that is used by the br_mrp_switchdev
functions to allow the SW to detect the cases where HW can't implement
the functionality or when SW is used as a backup.
