Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: Offload FIFO Petr says: If an ETS or PRIO band contains an offloaded qdisc, it is possible to obtain offloaded counters for that band. However, some of the bands will likely simply contain the default invisible FIFO qdisc, which does not present the counters. To remedy this situation, make FIFO offloadable, and offload it by mlxsw when below PRIO and ETS for the sole purpose of providing counters for the bands that do not include other qdiscs. - In patch #1, FIFO is extended to support offloading. - Patches #2 and #3 restructure bits of mlxsw to facilitate the offload logic. - Patch #4 then implements the offload itself. - Patch #5 changes the ETS selftest to use the new counters. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
