description:
A DSA switch port is a component of a switch that manages one MAC, and can
pass Ethernet frames. It can act as a stanadard Ethernet switch port, or have
DSA-specific functionality.

Describes the label associated with this port, which will become

description:
Should be a list of phandles to other switch's DSA port. This
port is used as the outgoing port towards the phandle ports. The
full routing information must be given, not just the one hop
routes to neighbouring switches

description:
Should be a phandle to a valid Ethernet device node. This host
device is what the switch port is connected to

description:
Instead of the default, the switch will use this tag protocol if
possible. Useful when a device supports multiple protocols and
the default is incompatible with the Ethernet device.

Annotation
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
