Hi Oliver,

   Yes , you need DSA to distinguish from which port a frame arrived.
   DSA driver in Linux is available in below path, "drivers/net/dsa/"
 for reference " http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/net/dsa/";

Thank you

ok thanks,

do I need the DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture) driver support to distinguish from which port a frame arrived? Currently, I can not distinguish these frames.

I can't find DSA drivers in the mainline Linux Kernel for the Marvel Switch Chip (88E6071) . Bur there are drivers for other DSA supported chips from marvel (88E6060).

How do I customize my device tree bindings (dts file) for DSA support?
