Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-10-03 This series contains updates to ice and virtchnl. Yashaswini Raghuram adds a new virtchnl capability flag to support the exchange of additional supported speeds. Anirudh adds support for SR-IOV for the ice driver. Added code to initialize, configure and use mailbox queues for PF and VF communication. Updated the VSI and queue management to handle both PF and VF VSI type. Added "Adaptive Virtual Function (AVF)" support for the ice PF driver by implementing virtchnl commands. Extended the malicious driver detection logic to include the VF driver as well. Fixed the queue region size which needs to be log base 2 of the number of queues in region. Brett fixes an issue which was causing switch rules to be lost, by making a call to ice_update_pkt_fwd_rule() with the necessary changes. Fixed how the PF and VF assigned the ITR index by adding a struct member itr_idx to be used to dynamically program the correct ITR index. Dave fixed a potential NULL pointer dereference by adding checks in the filter handling. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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.
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.
