Linux kernel source tree
The lan969x switch device supports manual frame injection and extraction to and from the switch core, using a number of injection and extraction queues. This technique is currently supported, but delivers poor performance compared to Frame DMA (FDMA). This lan969x implementation of FDMA, hooks into the existing FDMA for Sparx5, but requires its own RX and TX handling, as lan969x does not support the same native cache coherency that Sparx5 does. Effectively, this means that we are going to use the DMA mapping API for mapping and unmapping TX buffers. The RX loop will utilize the page pool API for efficient RX handling. Other than that, the implementation is largely the same, and utilizes the FDMA library for DCB and DB handling.

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 reStructuredText 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.
