Ido Schimmel says:

====================
mlxsw: Allow setting default port priority

Petr says:

When LLDP APP TLV selector 1 (EtherType) is used with PID of 0, the
corresponding entry specifies "default application priority [...] when
application priority is not otherwise specified."

mlxsw currently supports this type of APP entry, but uses it only as a
fallback for unspecified DSCP rules. However non-IP traffic is prioritized
according to port-default priority, not according to the DSCP-to-prio
tables, and thus it's currently not possible to prioritize such traffic
correctly.

This patchset extends the use of the abovementioned APP entry to also set
default port priority (in patches #1 and #2) and then (in patch #3) adds a
selftest.

README

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 Restructured Text 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.
