Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 10GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-04-29 This series contains updates to ixgbe and ixgbevf only, most notable is the addition of XDP support to our 10GbE drivers. Paul fixes ixgbe to acquire the PHY semaphore before accessing PHY registers when issuing a device reset. John adds XDP support (yeah!) for ixgbe. Emil fixes an issue by flushing the MACVLAN filters on VF reset to avoid conflicts with other VFs that may end up using the same MAC address. Also fixed a bug where ethtool -S displayed some empty fields for ixgbevf because it was using ixgbe_stats instead ixgbevf_stats for IXGBEVF_QUEUE_STATS_LEN. Tony adds the ability to specify a zero MAC address in order to clear the VF's MAC address from the RAR table. Also adds support for a new 1000Base-T device based on x550EM_X MAC type. Fixed an issue where the RSS key specified by the user would be over-written with a pre-existing value, so change the rss_key to a pointer so we can check to see if the key has a value set before attempting to set it. Fixed the logic for mailbox support for getting RETA and RSS values, which are only supported by 82599 and x540 devices. v2: fixed up patches #2 and #3 based on feedback from Jakub and to address build issues when page sizes are larger than 4k ==================== 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.
