Based on further tests, it seems that the QDMA shaper is not able to perform shaping close to the MAC link rate without throughput loss. This cannot be compensated by increasing the shaping rate, so it seems to be an internal limit. Fix the remaining throughput regression by detecting that condition and limiting shaping to ports with lower link speed. This patch intentionally ignores link speed gain from TRGMII, because even on such links, shaping to 1000 Mbit/s incurs some throughput degradation.

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.
