Aviad Krawczyk says: ==================== Huawei HiNIC Ethernet Driver The patch-set contains the support of the HiNIC Ethernet driver for hinic family of PCIE Network Interface Cards. The Huawei's PCIE HiNIC card is a new Ethernet card and hence there was a need of a new driver. The current driver is meant to be used for the Physical Function and there would soon be a support for Virtual Function and more features once the basic PF driver has been accepted.

These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
