net: dsa: add NETC switch tag support
The NXP NETC switch tag is a proprietary header added to frames after the source MAC address. The switch tag has 3 types, and each type has 1 ~ 4 subtypes, the details are as follows. Forward NXP switch tag (Type=0): Represents forwarded frames. - SubType = 0 - Normal frame processing. To_Port NXP switch tag (Type=1): Represents frames that are to be sent to a specific switch port. - SubType = 0. No request to perform timestamping. - SubType = 1. Request to perform one-step timestamping. - SubType = 2. Request to perform two-step timestamping. - SubType = 3. Request to perform both one-step timestamping and two-step timestamping. To_Host NXP switch tag (Type=2): Represents frames redirected or copied to the switch management port. - SubType = 0. Received frames redirected or copied to the switch management port. - SubType = 1. Received frames redirected or copied to the switch management port with captured timestamp at the switch port where the frame was received. - SubType = 2. Transmit timestamp response (two-step timestamping). In addition, the length of different type switch tag is different, the minimum length is 6 bytes, the maximum length is 14 bytes. Currently, Forward tag, SubType 0 of To_Port tag and Subtype 0 of To_Host tag are supported. More tags will be supported in the future.
