# Configuration for Switch device support

config NET_SWITCHDEV
	bool "Switch (and switch-ish) device support"
	depends on INET
	---help---
	  This module provides glue between core networking code and device
	  drivers in order to support hardware switch chips in very generic
	  meaning of the word "switch". This include devices supporting L2/L3 but
	  also various flow offloading chips, including switches embedded into
	  SR-IOV NICs.

PCI/ASPM: Handle PCI-to-PCIe bridges as roots of PCIe hierarchies
In a struct pcie_link_state, link->root points to the pcie_link_state of the root of the PCIe hierarchy. For the topmost link, this points to itself (link->root = link). For others, we copy the pointer from the parent (link->root = link->parent->root). Previously we recognized that Root Ports originated PCIe hierarchies, but we treated PCI/PCI-X to PCIe Bridges as being in the middle of the hierarchy, and when we tried to copy the pointer from link->parent->root, there was no parent, and we dereferenced a NULL pointer: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000090 IP: [<ffffffff9e424350>] pcie_aspm_init_link_state+0x170/0x820 Recognize that PCI/PCI-X to PCIe Bridges originate PCIe hierarchies just like Root Ports do, so link->root for these devices should also point to itself.
