Vaibhav Gupta says: ==================== ethernet: dec: tulip: use generic power management Linux Kernel Mentee: Remove Legacy Power Management. The purpose of this patch series is to remove legacy power management callbacks and invocation of PCI helper functions, from tulip ethernet drivers. With legacy PM, drivers themselves are responsible for handling the device's power states. And they do this with the help of PCI helper functions like pci_enable/disable_device(), pci_set/restore_state(), pci_set_powr_state(), etc. which is not recommended. In generic PM, all the required tasks are handled by PCI core and drivers need to perform device-specific operations only. All patches are compile-tested only. ==================== 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.
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.
