This patch refactors the current llh implementation. It exposes a hw resource called ppfid (port-pfid) and implements an API for configuring the resource. Default configuration which was used until now limited the number of filters per PF and did not support engine affinity per protocol. The new API enables allocating more filter rules per PF and enables affinitizing protocol packets to a certain engine which enables full 100g protocol offload support.

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.
