This patchset changes switchdev add, del, dump operations from this: int (*switchdev_port_obj_add)(struct net_device *dev, struct switchdev_obj *obj, struct switchdev_trans *trans); int (*switchdev_port_obj_del)(struct net_device *dev, struct switchdev_obj *obj); int (*switchdev_port_obj_dump)(struct net_device *dev, struct switchdev_obj *obj);
to something similar to the notifier_call callback of a notifier_block: int (*switchdev_port_obj_add)(struct net_device *dev, enum switchdev_obj_id id, const void *obj, struct switchdev_trans *trans); int (*switchdev_port_obj_del)(struct net_device *dev, enum switchdev_obj_id id, const void *obj); int (*switchdev_port_obj_dump)(struct net_device *dev, enum switchdev_obj_id id, void *obj, int (*cb)(void *obj)); This allows the caller to pass and expect back a specific switchdev_obj_* structure (e.g. switchdev_obj_fdb) instead of the generic switchdev_obj one. This will simplify pushing the callback function down to the drivers. The first 3 patches get rid of the dev parameter of the dump callback, since it is not always neeeded (e.g. vlan_dump) and some drivers (such as DSA drivers) may not have easy access to it. Patches 4 and 5 implement the change in the switchdev operations and its users. Patch 6 extracts the inner switchdev_obj_* structures from switchdev_obj and removes this last one.
