The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.

This patch set contains another set of small changes in mlxsw trap

The device has a trap for IPv6 packets that need be routed and have a
unicast link-local destination IP (i.e., fe80::/10). This allows mlxsw
to ignore link-local routes, as the packets will be trapped to the CPU
in any case.
However, since link-local routes are not programmed, it is possible for
routed packets to hit the default route which might also be programmed
to trap packets. This means that packets with a link-local destination
IP might be trapped for the wrong reason.
To overcome this, allow programming link-local prefix routes (usually
one fe80::/64 per-table), so that the packets will be forwarded until
reaching the link-local trap.

Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) provides "low-overhead,
short-duration detection of failures in the path between adjacent
forwarding engines" (RFC 5880).
This is accomplished by exchanging BFD packets between the two
forwarding engines. Up until now these packets were trapped via the
general local delivery (i.e., IP2ME) trap which also traps a lot of
other packets that are not as time-sensitive as BFD packets.
Expose dedicated traps for BFD packets so that user space could

As explained in commit e612523041 ("mlxsw: spectrum_trap: Introduce

pass as less packets as possible to the CPU.
The identifier of this policer is currently set according to the maximum
number of used trap groups, but this is fragile: On Spectrum-1 the
maximum number of policers is less than the maximum number of trap
groups, which might result in an invalid policer identifier in case the
number of used trap groups grows beyond the policer limit.
Solve this by dynamically allocating the policer identifier.

net: ethernet: fec: move GPR register offset and bit into DT
The commit da722186f6 (net: fec: set GPR bit on suspend by
DT configuration) set the GPR reigster offset and bit in driver
for wol feature support.
It brings trouble to enable wol feature on imx6sx/imx6ul/imx7d
platforms that have multiple ethernet instances with different
GPR bit for stop mode control. So the patch set is to move GPR
register offset and bit define into DT, and enable imx6q/imx6dl
imx6qp/imx6sx/imx6ul/imx7d stop mode support.
Currently, below NXP i.MX boards support wol:
- imx6q/imx6dl/imx6qp sabresd
- imx6sx sabreauto
- imx7d sdb
imx6q/imx6dl/imx6qp sabresd board dts file miss the property
"fsl,magic-packet;", so patch#4 is to add the property for stop
mode support.
v1 -> v2:
- driver: switch back to store the quirks bitmask in driver_data
- dt-bindings: rename 'gpr' property string to 'fsl,stop-mode'
- imx6/7 dtsi: add imx6sx/imx6ul/imx7d ethernet stop mode property
v2 -> v3:
- driver: suggested by Sascha Hauer, use a struct fec_devinfo for
abstracting differences between different hardware variants,
it can give more freedom to describe the differences.
- imx6/7 dtsi: correct one typo pointed out by Andrew.

The commit da722186f6 (net: fec: set GPR bit on suspend by DT
configuration) set the GPR reigster offset and bit in driver for
wake on lan feature.
But it introduces two issues here:
- one SOC has two instances, they have different bit
- different SOCs may have different offset and bit
So to support wake-on-lan feature on other i.MX platforms, it should
configure the GPR reigster offset and bit from DT.
So the patch is to improve the commit da722186f6 (net: fec: set GPR
bit on suspend by DT configuration) to support multiple ethernet
instances on i.MX series.
v2:
* switch back to store the quirks bitmask in driver_data

abstracting differences between different hardware variants,
it can give more freedom to describe the differences.

net: phy: mscc-miim: reduce waiting time between MDIO transactions
This series aims at reducing the waiting time between MDIO transactions
when using the MSCC MIIM MDIO controller.
I'm not sure we need patch 4/4 and we could reasonably drop it from the
series. I'm including the patch as it could help to ensure the system
is functional with a non optimal configuration.
We needed to improve the driver's performances as when using a PHY
requiring lots of registers accesses (such as the VSC85xx family),
delays would add up and ended up to be quite large which would cause
issues such as: a slow initialization of the PHY, and issues when using
timestamping operations (this feature will be sent quite soon to the
mailing lists).

The driver uses a read polling mechanism to check the status of the MDIO
bus, to know if it is ready to accept next commands. This polling
mechanism uses usleep_delay() under the hood between reads which is fine
as long as high resolution timers are enabled. Otherwise the delays will
end up to be much longer than expected.
This patch fixes this by using udelay() under the hood when
CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS isn't enabled. This increases CPU usage.

The MSCC MIIM MDIO driver uses a waiting logic to wait for the MDIO bus
to be ready to accept next commands. It does so by polling the BUSY
status bit which indicates the MDIO bus has completed all pending
operations. This can take time, and the controller supports writing the
next command as soon as there are no pending commands (which happens
while the MDIO bus is busy completing its current command).
This patch implements this improved logic by adding an helper to poll
the PENDING status bit, and by adjusting where we should wait for the
bus to not be busy or to not be pending.
