After reading more carefully the RFC I noticed that for now it only supports CBS. CBS is already supported by stmmac since: "net: stmmac: configuration of CBS in case of a TX AVB queue" [1]. My main objective now is to add support for EST and FP features in stmmac. As I am a recent contributor to net subsytem I am afraid my expertise won't be of much value for now as far as the RFC goes. About my patches, what I think would be better now would be to drop the configuration by DT and integrate the remaining configuration, letting the EST parameters be populated by SoC specific wrappers. I will then integrate this with the RFC patches once they get in and I also intend to contribute with the discussion once a new version is sent. I need also to say that this was fully tested and its working as expected so, there is no real setback in integrating this now and it will save us time in the future because then we will only need to implement the callbacks.
