\begin{frame}{DSA Driver Implementation}
  \begin{block}{Driver}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Driver has to implement \texttt{dsa\_switch\_ops}
    \item Afterwards call \texttt{dsa\_register\_switch()}
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}
  \begin{block}{DSA Switch Operations}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Enabling/Disabling ports
    \item VLAN and bridging support
    \item PHY and Linkstates
    \item Ethtool integration
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

\begin{frame}{Switch Tagging}
  \begin{block}{Tagging}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Ethernet frames between CPU, DSA and master ports have additional data
    \item Used for meta data and port control
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}
  \begin{block}{Current Supported Protocols}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item DSA, EDSA
    \item Broadcom tags
    \item KSZ Tail tagging
    \item LAN9303 tags, ...

  \end{figure}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}{Frame Processing}
  \begin{block}{Receive Path}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Master interface calls \texttt{netif\_receive\_skb()}
    \item Parse switch tags and select corresponding slave interface
    \item Slave interface calls \texttt{netif\_receive\_skb()}
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}
  \begin{block}{Transmit Path}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Slave interface sends frame
    \item Tagger adds the corresponding switch tags
    \item Frame is passed to master interface and sent to the switch
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

\begin{frame}{What is switchdev?}
  \begin{block}{Switchdev \cite{switchdev_doc}}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Switchdev is a framework for configuring switches

    \begin{itemize}
    \item Model switch ports as regular network interfaces
    \item Offload switch constructs to hardware

  \end{block}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}{Switchdev vs. DSA}
  \begin{block}{Switchdev vs. DSA}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item DSA uses Switchdev for hardware offloading
    \item DSA exposes a well defined device driver model for Ethernet switches
    \item DSA supports switch tagging
    \item DSA supports cascading multiple switches
