Jiri Pirko says: ==================== mlxsw: Preparations for IPv6 UC router Ido says: The purpose of this set is to prepare the driver for the introduction of IPv6 FIB offload. It's mainly composed of small and non-functional changes, that either add the IPv6 equivalent of existing IPv4 code or aimed at making the introduction of IPv6-specific code easier. The first five patches enable IPv6 forwarding in the device and allow us to configure router interfaces (RIFs) based on inet6addr notifications. The next six patches add support for programming IPv6 neighbours into the device's table as well as dumping their activity and updating the kernel accordingly. The last 11 patches extend current infrastructure to allow us to program IPv6 routes, set catch-all IPv6 trap in case of abort and make the code more receptive towards up-coming changes. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
