Alexander Lobakin says: ==================== idpf: add get/set for Ethtool's header split ringparam Currently, the header split feature (putting headers in one smaller buffer and then the data in a separate bigger one) is always enabled in idpf when supported. One may want to not have fragmented frames per each packet, for example, to avoid XDP frags. To better optimize setups for particular workloads, add ability to switch the header split state on and off via Ethtool's ringparams, as well as to query the current status. There's currently only GET in the Ethtool Netlink interface for now, so add SET first. I suspect idpf is not the only one supporting this. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231212142752.935000-1-aleksander.lobakin@intel.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
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.
