Hi all.

This patchset is just the first phase of switch and switch-ish device
support api in kernel. Note that the api will extend (our complete work
can be pulled from https://github.com/jpirko/net-next-rocker).

So what this patchset includes:
- introduce switchdev api for implementing switch drivers (so far
  only linux bridge fdb offload is covered)
- introduce rocker switch driver which implements switchdev api

As to the discussion if there is need to have specific class of device
representing the switch itself, so far we found no need to introduce that.
But we are generally ok with the idea and when the time comes and it will
be needed, it can be easily introduced without any disturbance.

This patchset introduces switch id export through rtnetlink and sysfs,
which is similar to what we have for port id in SR-IOV. I will send iproute2
patchset for showing the switch id for port netdevs once this is applied.

For detailed description, please see individual patches.

v1->v2:
- addressed all DaveM's comments

Jiri Pirko (5):
  net: rename netdev_phys_port_id to more generic name
  net: introduce generic switch devices support
  rtnl: expose physical switch id for particular device
  net-sysfs: expose physical switch id for particular device
  rocker: introduce rocker switch driver

Scott Feldman (5):
  bridge: introduce fdb offloading via switchdev
  bridge: call netdev_sw_port_stp_update when bridge port STP status
    changes
  bridge: add API to notify bridge driver of learned FBD on offloaded
    device
  rocker: implement rocker ofdpa flow table manipulation
  rocker: implement L2 bridge offloading
