Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: Various fixes This patchset contains various small fixes for mlxsw. Patch #1 fixes a warning generated by switchdev core when the driver fails to insert an MDB entry in the commit phase. Patches #2-#4 fix a warning in check_flush_dependency() that can be triggered when a work item in a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue tries to flush a non-WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue. It seems that the semantics of the WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag are not very clear [1] and that various patches have been sent to remove it from various workqueues throughout the kernel [2][3][4] in order to silence the warning. These patches do the same for the workqueues created by mlxsw that probably should not have been created with this flag in the first place. Patch #5 fixes a regression where an IP address cannot be assigned to a VRF upper due to erroneous MAC validation check. Patch #6 adds a test case. Patch #7 adjusts Spectrum-2 shared buffer configuration to be compatible with Spectrum-1. The problem and fix are described in detail in the commit message. Please consider patches #1-#5 for 5.0.y. I verified they apply cleanly. [1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10791315/ [2] Commit |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
