Especially since it creates confusion - it is nowhere made clear in this commit message that it is just preparatory work. > --- > include/net/switchdev.h | 3 ++ > net/switchdev/switchdev.c | 61 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > 2 files changed, 64 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/include/net/switchdev.h b/include/net/switchdev.h > index a43062d4c734..538851a93d9e 100644 > --- a/include/net/switchdev.h > +++ b/include/net/switchdev.h > @@ -308,6 +308,9 @@ void switchdev_deferred_process(void); > int switchdev_port_attr_set(struct net_device *dev, > const struct switchdev_attr *attr, > struct netlink_ext_ack *extack); > +bool switchdev_port_obj_is_deferred(struct net_device *dev, > + enum switchdev_notifier_type nt, > + const struct switchdev_obj *obj); I think this is missing a shim definition for when CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV is disabled. > int switchdev_port_obj_add(struct net_device *dev, > const struct switchdev_obj *obj, > struct netlink_ext_ack *extack); > diff --git a/net/switchdev/switchdev.c b/net/switchdev/switchdev.c > index 5b045284849e..40bb17c7fdbf 100644 > --- a/net/switchdev/switchdev.c > +++ b/net/switchdev/switchdev.c > @@ -19,6 +19,35 @@ > #include <linux/rtnetlink.h> > #include <net/switchdev.h> > > +static bool switchdev_obj_eq(const struct switchdev_obj *a, > + const struct switchdev_obj *b) > +{ > + const struct switchdev_obj_port_vlan *va, *vb; > + const struct switchdev_obj_port_mdb *ma, *mb; > + > + if (a->id != b->id || a->orig_dev != b->orig_dev) > + return false; > + > + switch (a->id) { > + case SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_VLAN: > + va = SWITCHDEV_OBJ_PORT_VLAN(a); > + vb = SWITCHDEV_OBJ_PORT_VLAN(b); > + return va->flags == vb->flags && > + va->vid == vb->vid && > + va->changed == vb->changed; > + case SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_MDB: > + case SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_HOST_MDB: > + ma = SWITCHDEV_OBJ_PORT_MDB(a); > + mb = SWITCHDEV_OBJ_PORT_MDB(b); > + return ma->vid == mb->vid && > + !memcmp(ma->addr, mb->addr, sizeof(ma->addr)); ether_addr_equal(). > + default: > + break; Does C allow you to not return anything here? > + } > + > + BUG(); > +} > + > static LIST_HEAD(deferred); > static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(deferred_lock); > > @@ -307,6 +336,38 @@ int switchdev_port_obj_del(struct net_device *dev, > } > EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(switchdev_port_obj_del); > > +bool switchdev_port_obj_is_deferred(struct net_device *dev, > + enum switchdev_notifier_type nt, > + const struct switchdev_obj *obj) A kernel-doc comment would be great. It looks like it's not returning whether the port object is deferred, but whether the _action_ given by @nt on the @obj is deferred. This further distinguishes between deferred additions and deferred removals. > +{ > + struct switchdev_deferred_item *dfitem; > + bool found = false; > + > + ASSERT_RTNL(); Why does rtnl_lock() have to be held?
