[ Upstream commit dbc94a0fb81771a38733c0e8f2ea8c4fa6934dc1 ]
There are 2 ways to create IPoIB PKEY child interfaces:
1) Writing a PKEY to /sys/class/net/<ib parent interface>/create_child.
2) Using netlink with iproute.
While with sysfs the child interface has the same number of tx and
rx queues as the parent, with netlink there will always be 1 tx
and 1 rx queue for the child interface. That's because the
get_num_tx/rx_queues() netlink ops are missing and the default value
of 1 is taken for the number of queues (in rtnl_create_link()).
This change adds the get_num_tx/rx_queues() ops which allows for
interfaces with multiple queues to be created over netlink. This
constant only represents the max number of tx and rx queues on that
net device.

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.
