====================
qed*: Add support for management firmware TLV request.
Management firmware (MFW) requires config and state information from
the driver. It queries this via TLV (type-length-value) request wherein
mfw specificies the list of required TLVs. Driver fills the TLV data
and responds back to MFW.
This patch series adds qed/qede/qedf/qedi driver implementation for
supporting the TLV queries from MFW.
Changes from previous versions:
-------------------------------
v2: Split patch (2) into multiple simpler patches.
v2: Update qed_tlv_parsed_buf->p_val datatype to void pointer to avoid
bunch of unnecessary typecasts.
Please consider applying this series to "net-next".

============
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.
