LAG state machine is implemented using bit flags. However, all these bit flags, except for MLX5_LAG_FLAG_HASH_BASED, are really mutual exclusive. In addition, MLX5_LAG_FLAG_READY is used by bonding to mark if we have our netdevices successfully added to lag and does not really belong in the same flags variable as the other flags. Rename MLX5_LAG_FLAG_READY to MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY to better reflect its purpose and put it in a new flags variable. For the rest of the flags, we introduce a mode enum to hold the state of the LAG. Remove the shared fdb boolean flag from struct mlx5_lag and store this configuration as a mode flag. Change all flag related operations to use standard Linux APIs. Signed-off-by: Eli Cohen <elic@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Mark Bloch <mbloch@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@nvidia.com>
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.
