mlx5e_safe_switch_channels accepts new_chs as a parameter and opens new channels in place, then copying them to priv->channels. It requires all the callers to allocate space for this temporary storage of the new channels. This commit cleans up the API by replacing new_chs with new_params, a meaningful subset of new_chs to be filled by the caller. The temporary space for the new channels is allocated inside mlx5e_safe_switch_params (a new name for mlx5e_safe_switch_channels). An extra copy of params is made, but since it's control flow, it's not critical. Signed-off-by: Maxim Mikityanskiy <maximmi@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@nvidia.com>
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.
